Easter goodies

All ready for Easter. Had a great time making kiss flowers. I'm sure everyone at church will like them...and the cupcakes too!



I think I saw something on Pinterest similar to this.

Oldie Goldie

Oh my gosh! I remember doing these quite a few years back...2009 if I'm not mistaken. Turns out I had stamped a whole pile of them but never completed...until now! Love how that deep deep purple, Blackberry Bliss works with quite a few. Who doesn't like a blast from the past mixed with the way of today?

Faux Pergamano

Also known as raised velum was this weeks class. Although I didn't have the best stamps to use for illustration, I think they turned out pretty darn goodthough. This was a fun technique and could be used for just about any sentiment. Not too sure about a manly card...really have to put my thinking cap on for designing one of those.. I have been really inspired these last couple of weeks by so much. Hope I don't lose the inspiration! Here are some of the cards I made for class.









For this card I did not burnish the velum. This was a bad stamping job gone bad but I fixed it up a bit.
My lighting sucks!

Watercolour Bokeh


I just found the most wonderful type of background creations for cards. It's called watercolour Bokeh and although it's a it time consuming, I love the outcome. I think I made one in almost every colour. This card I am sending off Stae side for a birthday to a gal I don't even know. I hope she likes it when she gets it. I also taught this in class a couple weeks ago. So much fun!

Easy Peasie Pull up card

I saw a new design of a card in a magazine and wanted to copy that idea so I set to work making my own design template and made a couple cards for clas that went over well.

Publishing mistake

Well, here I went and thought my last publishing date was Jan. 17 when I blogged about a couple of cards I made for some birthdays in January. It didn't get published until today when I decided to share another card with you. Oops! Well, they're published now and I hope the gals state-side have received them.
Today I want to share a card I made a while back but sent to a dear Christian sister who is in hospital. I hope it cheers her and puts a smile on her face'



Birthday surprise

Just finished 2 one of a kind cards for a couple January Birthdays. The flower is a 3 part stamp and the heart card is a card I printed out years ago and just found it in my stash. I coloured it with the Blendabilities but it bled pretty bad and tried to clean it up with he marker remover. Not bad!? My blending sucks. Got to work on that a bit more. I'm sure the recipients won't mind.
