May Challenge

Hello , happy Cinco de Miyo to you. We are celebrating at work today. Big pot luck for lunch... yumm! I'm sharing my DT card for Simply Create Too 's MAy challenge use a digi stamp. This is an image I 've had for while and if you know my aversion to people on cards you'll understand why this is one of the only digi stamps I own. People , especially those faceless ones on cards give me the creeps.... yes I'm weird. I hope you will join us for this challenge.

Hello, I'm hosting this week's color challenge over at CAS Colours and Sketches. I had in my mind a floral card for Mother's Day (since it's next week here in the states). I've been so busy preparing for a craft show in a few weeks. I set a goal for myself of 250 cards to take to sell......Yikes! What was I thinking ? I hope I can do it. I hope you will join us this week. See you soon.

Good evening, last minute entry for PTI's MIM challenge. I don't own any PTI stencils so I made my own using the quadfoil coverplate die and a piece of acetate, I lightly watercolored my paper, die cut a few roses and stamped on the sentiment AFTER  I assembled the card. Thankful for my Misti , I had planned on die cutting a sentiment , but it didn't look right. Thanks for stopping by.

Hello, happy Sunday. I'm planning to craft away my day today (in between laundry ). I am working on Mother's day cards today. I love this floral from The Ton, perfect for watercoloring. I've used it on a previous entry in another color and it looks very different. Off to make a few more cards. Have a great day.

Hello, I'm trying to be creative to occupy my mind. I binge watched 13 reasons why and needed a happy break. The colors for this week's color throwdown are very happy colors so I decided to play along. Now off to finish the laundry I should have done. Be back soon.

CCC #11

Hello, I'm back with another card to share for the Christmas card challenge. The challenge we followed a color scheme., I saw those colors and instantly thought of a wintery wonderland. I am happy to say that currently there is now wintery wonderland outside my door . I used a makeup brush for the background inking, then used a stencil , inked the white , then used a texture paste for highlight. I wish it photographed better, the trees have a soft glisten to them. I hope you will join us.
