A Card a Day Blog Challenge #3

After checking out the Savvy Projects blog and seeing Teresa's Mother's Day card, I was inspired to use that same stamp set to make one for my MIL. I got out my paper scraps(seems like an inappropriate term for these treasures!) and found pieces and a tag from Genevieve and More Mimi solid. The floral background and solid brown(cut with nestabilities) is from a DCWV mat stack. I used Burnt Umber ink and my watercolor crayons to color. I hand wrote the name "Mum" (using a brown Slick Writer)as that is what we call her. I love the effect the little pearls add in the place where brads would normally go.And of course I stamped Happy Mother's Day on the inside with the sentiment from Trendy Greetings(T2144).

A Card a Day Blog Challenge

After checking out the card Debra posted for the "Card a Day in the Month of May" on the savvy Projects Blog, I came up with this sympathy card. I started by trying to turn the layout of the card, and as I tried putting the pieces together, this is what "spoke" to me. I used Prismacolor pencils and odorless mineral spirits to color. The stamp, Gerbera Daisy, is a retired stamp but a favorite of mine. I hand wrote the sentiment. The background papers came out of my stash of saved pieces of cardstock. I used pop dots to adhere the daisy on to the card.

Finally Spring!

  The weather is finally warming up and I have my stamping juices flowing again. I had a stamp camp last Saturday and the theme was "let's flock!" These are the cards I came up with to teach. I had the felt yellow butterfly ribbon forever and decided it would go well with flocking. The daisy has just a ring of flock in the center.In the next card  the shadow (second step) of the butterfly was stamped with the essential glue pad and flock added over that. The cloud is white flock. And the little butterflies on the last page are cut from the ribbon. Instead of flocking on the butterfly, I applied dimensional glue alone.
