Lost in Thought

I want to share with you my little guy called MOMENTS, he is one of the Oddly Sweet Curiosities designed by Carmen Medlin for Susana’s Custom Art and Card Design (SCACD) and so you know Susana now has digital images for those who like digi’s and for those who like stamps they also come in stamps.  I want to thank Susana for letting me be a guest designer, I had a lot of fun.

I stamped the image with Memento tuxedo black ink onto cryogen paper. Cut the image out with spellbinders floral ovals. The paper used is 6x6 create paper pad.

My corners are SCACD Classic corners and I cut out 4 of them. Added Hero Arts Hero Hues to the upper left and right side. The ribbon is from American crafts. Viva pearl pen color is red.

Added an insert for a written message. This sentiment comes with the stamp and I love what it say and I think it is perfect for the little guy who is so deep in thought. Placed a couple of SCACD classic corners on the inside.

These are the copic markers used to color the image. I do hope you can tell but I did add some shimmer spritz color sparkle. On the background I use crafterswork shop TCW 6x6 template called mini butterfly meadow. I do hope you can see them?

Thanks so much for stopping by. I’m still out of town. My SIL is starting to do much better, today she started to eat by month and that is a super big step. Also her hand movement on both hands has gotten better, on Tuesday she is going to go to a Rehab Hospital here in Austin I think it is called St David’s. I do thank everyone for all the support and prayers.

Thinking of you today

Been a little while since I posted. Been working on my cards and getting things ahead so I can leave town and all I need to do is post the finished card. My mind is going kind of crazy thinking of all the things I have to do, I will get everything done. Going down to Austin to see my brother,  sister and a friend. Not all a fun trip. So lets talk about the card. I ended up making it a GET WELL card with a Fall theme. The Outlawz Twisted Thursday challenge has started and the twisted for this is “ANYTHING GOES WITH THE TWIST OF FALL”.  The sponsor for this month is Nicecrane designs. If you love Vintage this is the place to go. Here is the STORE and here is the BLOG. The image I used is from Vintage cute kids DSL IV Sheet.
