Friendship

Hello all my wonderful friends! You know that nice cool weather I was talking about it is gone, today it is 88 degrees right now so it is back again. One thing that is really nice about living in Wisconsin is wait a little while and the weather will change. Here in Wisconsin we can have all 4 seasons in one day. I have experienced it, several time. I would go to work and it would be in the 80’s and I would get out of work and we would have 3 inches of snow and the temp would be  20 degrees. So anyway it is time for our challenge at The Outlawz Twisted Thursday and for this week the twist is all about Friendship, I thought I would use my Art impression stamp #UMT4136 and the sentiment is also from Art impression. I think these girls are so much fun.

 

Stamped the stamps with memento tuxedo black on crygoen card stock. The paper used is from my scraps. Sponged around the sentiment with distressed ink color dusty concord. One of Martha Steward border punches sorry I tried to find the name and I could not find the punch on line????

Used the rest of the purple ribbon and had some purple flowers in my stash. This the inside of the card.

  Here are the copic markers used to color the image.

and we have the close up of the girls.

 

So I hope you can join us this week at Twisted Thursday our challenge ends on Wednesday night. So be safe and Happy Stamping everyone.

Summer Fun

First I want to say I’m so sorry I have been gone for awhile. I have had computer problems so I have not been able to do much but everything is all fixed now so I’m all good to go now. I sure have missed everyone. I do have a lot of emails to try and get caught up on. So I have missed last weeks challenge at The Outlawz’s Twisted Thursday but I have my card done and I will share it with you after I share this weeks challenge with you. So the twisted for this week is all about BOATS, SAILBOATS AND CANOES. The challenge starts today and ends on Wednesday August 21, 2012.

The stamps I used is from Northwood's stamps and the sentiment is from Hero Arts. Used X-Press it blending card stock. Used Memento Tuxedo black ink to stamp everything. Twine colors are orange, green and lemondrop. I found a couple of stickers for the inside and front, flip flops and the inter tube (ok help me, can’t think of what they are called)!!!

 

Die cuts with a view is the paper and it is the summer series. Inside is Memory box delicate vine and Spellbinders labels 8.

Another side view.

Here is the inside.

 

These are the copic’s markers used to color my image. I also used Diamond glaze from Judi Kins, liquid Applique from Marvy Uchida and Glamour dust from deco art. Here is the close up and I hope you can see all the different affects.

 

So last week our challenge at the Outlawz was all about ribbon or lace and a birthday sentiment. This is what I created. The sentiment is a little bit of a joke around here and the images is from Squigglefly called doubled kissed. The card shape is from Spellbinders grand labels 23.

 I sponged around with distressed ink dried marigold. Added a charm. Was some lace I already had and added some pearl in front of the lace.

 

 

As you can tell I also add just a little more pearls (ya right!) with the pearl pen color salmon.

These are the copic markers I used to color the image.

 

 

I do hope you enjoyed my cards, it sure feels like forever since I added a card to my blog. Have a wonderful week end everyone.

Just hanging around

Hello everyone. I hope you have been having a wonderful week. It has been so hot here in Wisconsin and I’m getting tired of saying that. I live in Wisconsin because I like the cooler weather. Oh well such as it is. Time for The Outlawz Twisted Thursday challenge and for this week the twist is anything that fly's. My little fairy is from Nicecrane Designs and there are 2 sets of them and you can pick them up. They are called Little Girl Magic and I think they are just darling.
 The die cut Cherry lynn designs tropical flourish, exotic butterfly small. Spellbinder scalloped edge frame.

The die cuts are from Memory box fancy blooms and the peptic border, Spellbinder labels 8 and Cherry lynn designs tropical flourish are in the inside.

I sponged the edges with brilliance sky blue. Added Stickles glitter  glue star dust to the winged area and on the frame. I found some lace and ribbon that went with the colors.

Here is a close up of the darling little girl magic.

 

Here is a close up of all the Little Girl Magic sheets that are available. Some times you might need an image real fast and these are just so cute. Did you see the Christmas one’s? Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful week end.

Special Moments

Hello everyone this is Patricia and I want to share this card this you. I’m in love with this image, I think she is just adorable. It is one from  Nicecrane designs (this is the store) and he has created several images that come with this set and I love all of them. The set is called Adorable Girls DSL and she is image AG4. You can get them colored and not colored.  Nicecrane designs also has a blog if you would like to see some more of his work.

 

As everyone knows I like to show all views of my cards.  Paper is Die Cuts With a View the stack is Bouquet De Fleur.

Here is the other side.

Used Magnolia doohickeys lovely fence and used distress ink brushed corduroy and vintage photo.

The flowers are from a punch from McGills called Mini Petals. Used distressed ink mustard seed, in the middle rusty hinge and some very small black dots. The leaves are from Sizzix the die is called Branch with Leaves. Sponged distress ink forest moss.  I shaped the flowers and leaves.

Found this striking purple lace and ribbon in my stash. Wanted to make a pin to go with it. I make jewelry so I do have a lot of all kinds of beads around so thought I might make some pins and add them to my cards. This one is made with 4 pearls all of them different sizes and 3 swarovski crystals 1/4mm violet AB2x bicone, 1/4mm amethyst AB2x bicone and 1/4mm amethyst bicone.

This is what the inside looks like. Added some of the paper and flowers and used spellbinder label 8 so they have some place to write.

   

These are the copic markers I used to color the image.

I do hope you enjoy my card. I do hope you stop by Nicecrane design. Here is what the girls all look like, they are just adorable.  Had a hard time deciding what one to do first, they are all so darling.

 

Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful week and try and stay cool because it is sure hot here.
