Cards Made in March

I made this card for a friend from church who also loves horses. The sky and clouds background was created using a 6x6 background stamp by Impression Obsession called "Cover-a-card Clouds".

The image and sentiment is a Unity Stamp by artist Phyllis Harris called "And for a Moment".  I have made several card with this stamp so you have seen it before. I colored the image with Copic Markers and then cut out the image and gave it dimension with foam tape.

This card I made for a couple who celebrated their 60th anniversary.

Don't be too shocked but this image IS NOT a Unity stamp!😲

This image is from "Little Miss Muffett Rubber Stamps" called "The Stolen Kiss (Le Baiser Vole`)" This stamp is still available but has been placed on their "retiring" list.

I used Copic Markers to color the image. It doesn't show up in the photo but I added some clear Wink of Stella for some sparkle.

I used an embossing folder from Stampin Up for the decorative edge on the background.

This birthday card is for my Aunt Kay.

I used Unity's Kit of the Month December 2017 called "Start of Something New". The birthday cakes makes for a fun background for birthday cards. I chose to color some of the cakes for interest. The "happy birthday" sentiment was not in this kit.

I love how this card turned out. This is a birthday card I made for Leslie the daughter of my friend Teresa. When I saw this image it made me think of her as she wears her hair like this most of the time. The image is a Unity Stamp by artist Angie Blom called "Part of the Story"

The background was from an old Bazzill 6x6 paper pack. I don't remember the name of it. I colored the image with Copic Markers. I found a small sentiment stamp "For You" and stamped on the book.

I made this as a birthday card for a sweet lady in our church.

This stamp kit is Unity by artist Phyllis Harris called "Feathers, Wings & Refuge".

I made this card for a little boy in our church who just turned one!

This is a Unity Stamp by artist Tierra Jackson called Cuddlebug Puppy from Tierra's "Cuddlebug Line"

 His mom was so sweet to send me these pictures of him with his card. His name is Joshua.

I made this as a birthday card for another dear lady in our church.

This stamp came from Unity's Kit of the Month March 2018 called "Stay Classy". Since this image was vintage I used some older Graphic 45 paper for the background. I stamped the image using Distress Ink Vintage Photo and also stamped the sentiment and inked the edges with the same ink.

Another birthday for a church member.

The background was made with an embossing folder then using a blending tool I inked with Distress Ink. The image is Unity by artist Angie Blom and part of the "AngieGirl Collection" called "Wakely Girl".

That was all the cards for the month of March!

Have a good one!

Day 20 of 30 Day Color Challenge

I am just barely getting day 20 in of the 30 Day Color Challenge! Can't believe it's almost over already!

 I decided to use a different stamp.  This image is by Little Miss Muffet called Sugar 'n Spice Dolls Vanilla. The sentiment is from another stamp set.

I colored the image using my Copic Markers.

Hope you enjoy!


Have a good one!

Pleasant Surprise

I don't know anyone who doesn't like gift surprises. I happened to be a recipient of one not too long ago. Cathy had gotten some western stamps in at the store from Impression Obsession. I groaned when I saw them because I wanted them...ALL. I knew my "budget" couldn't get them all. One of the ladies who comes in to shop and also likes "western" themed items paid for one of those stamps for me! I was so surprised and blessed. I thanked her through messaging on Facebook but that wasn't enough for me. I figured the best way to thank her was to make a card with the stamp she bought me! So This is the card I made for her.

The design papers are Carta Bella "Giddy Up" collection. I absolutely LOVE this paper. It made a very nice card too!

I made a wedding card for the couple whose wedding Keannon and Vanessa went to.  The brides colors were Navy and fall orange. This stamp is by "Miss Muffet". I have used this image several times. Both for wedding and anniversary.

That's about all the crafting I've done recently. Hope to have a page layout for you soon. Reminisce came out with a new western paper and Cathy wants me to make a sample to hang in the store.


Have a good one!

WOW Wednesday at Cat's Creations!

It's WOW Wednesday over at Cat's Creations. I have two cards I want to share today.

The first is a card I made for my granddaughter Remi. We haven't seen Remi since two weeks before Christmas. Remi's stepdad is in the Air Force and was sent to California. We are hoping to get to see her soon.

This stamp is designed by Phyllis Harris and sold through Unity. I just love Phyllis Harris stamps! You will be seeing more of these from me! This one is called "Present in my Heart". Where Remi leaves is not far from the beach so this stamp made me think of her. The DP is Bo Bunny. I colored the image with Copic Markers. I apologize but I neglected to write down what ones I used before I put them away. On the inside of the card is the sentiment "Even though we're far a part You're still present in my heart".  It worked perfectly.

Vanessa & Keannon will celebrate their 1st anniversary on Saturday the 13th. I decided to make another card.

This stamp is called "Le Baiser Vole`" by Little Miss Muffet Stamps. I wasn't going to buy this stamp because I didn't think I would use it much but I've already made four cards with it and all of them were anniversary! My daughter's wedding colors were black and purple so I tried to go with that color scheme. I used an embossing folder on the white background. I colored the stamped image with my Copic Markers and then cut of the image. I put some foam tape under the image for dimension. On the parasol I used a white gel pen to give the look of pearls. This time I remembered to show the markers I used. Thanks Sandy T for the idea!

I chose to put the sentiment on the inside which reads "Happy Anniversary ". I'll also hand write a personal note before I give it to them.

That's it for me today. Keeping it short and simple. Leave me a comment for a chance to win a prize from Cat's Creations.
