Working in the Garden

IMG_1843
I have been busy working in the garden these past few weeks. So I am a bit behind on posting some cards that I have made. This one was just a fun one I put together. I had fun coloring it with my Copics and the DP is a piece of scrap I came across. Gives it a bit of a country feel to it.

Challenges:
1. Splitcoaststamper - WT428 Garden Theme
2. Addicted to Stamps and More - Challenge #46 - ANYTHING GOES!!


Here are some pictures of my garden:

A Late Happy Mother’s Day Cards

I kept meaning to post these cards that I made last week and I ended up forgetting! So when I got up this morning I made it my goal to post these cards. Hope you like them!

Pink Rose for Mother’s Day

I have totally forgotten who the manufacturer of the two stamps are (it has been awhile since I made this card). I will look it up and come back withy those details. I do know the punch at the bottom is a Martha Stewart one.

 

Motherhood is a Journey

I do know these stamps are by Flourishes!I colored it with my Copics. This was before I found my missing brown Copics so I ended up using dark shades of yellow for the bulb.

 

Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you and yours had a wonderful Mother’s Day!

Lighthouse on the Waves

IMG_1847

Hey Friends!

So apparently I will be posting cards really slowly here. While I am making cards I seem to forget to post them before I start another one. Then by the time I take pictures of them and come into the house I can’t remember most of the details of each card.

When I was making this card I knew I wanted to use an old map with this image but I couldn’t find the right DP for the bottom of the card. I really need to organize my paper better because after looking through several stacks I came across this thick, crimped paper I had bought years ago at a garage sale. I think it goes well with the other elements.

Details:

Stamps: ODBD (lighthouse) Hero Arts (map)

Ink: Brown Memento, Copics, Distress Ink

Punch: Martha Stewart

Accessories: gold brad, twine

Challenges:

1. Sisterhood of Crafters – Free For All

2. For your Inspiration – Picture
