Feel Better!

We all know someone who is feeling sick (well probably).  A cheerful card may just brighten their day so why not create one and send it off?  This was created using La-La Land Crafts Club kit from February 2016.  I discovered this kit on ebay and I fell in love with the bandage and the tissue box stamps along with the dies and of course, Marci, so I decided I had to add this to my collection.  My La-La Land crafts addiction just keeps going...

 

Sweet Sentiment Stamps June Release!

It's time for a trip back in time when dinosaurs ruled the world!  Sweet Sentiment Stamps June release is full of fun lovin' dinos.  You can see the full release HERE - I'm just sharing the stamp sets I worked with.  

Carnivories

I decided to create a slimline card scene using two of my favorite carnivores.  These were stamped on Sweet Sentiment kraft cardstock and then colored with Prismacolor Premier pencils.  I love using this paper for pencil work, it makes colors blend effortlessly.

Herbivores

I've had this dinosaur paper for years, and I remembered I had it when the stamp sets arrived, I thought it would be great with these two dino-cuties.  Again, these were stamped on Sweet Sentiment kraft cardstock  and then colored with Prismacolor Premier pencils.

Yellow Brick Road!

 

I had some play time with Scrappy Boy Stamps 'The Land of Oz', and 'Witches & Wizards'.  I have always been a huge fan of The Wizard of Oz so these stamp sets were a must have.  I also used Scrappy Boy Stamps coordinating paper pack, The Wonderful World of Oz.   Everything was colored using Copic Markers.

Scrappy Boy Stamps - May Guest Designer!

I am so delighted that I could be a Guest Designer for Scrappy Boy Stamps!  If you aren't familiar with this company, it's time to get acquainted because there is a wonderful, whimsical collection of themed stamps available there along with other goodies.

I was given the Coffee Girls stamp and die set to work with and I admit it wasn't until I was handling the stamps that I realized that this set reflects the TV show, The Gilmore Girls.  My first thought was to create a coffee shop but then I thought why not create a coffee trailer instead of a store.  

The Coffee Girls stamp set has many fabulous sentiments included that reflect the Gilmore Girls TV show, I decided to make a card that is a nod to the actual show.  Do notice all those added sentiments around the gazebo.

The last card I'm sharing today featuring Coffee Girls is a bit quirky.  Sticking with the coffee theme I decided to create two large coffee cups and have a play with the accessory stamps until I liked the layout.  It may sound strange, but I really like arranging my images (it's a bit like playing with paper dolls) until I find what I like.  I never know before I start a card what images I will include from the stamp set I'm working with.  

All of the Coffee Girls stamps were colored with Copic Markers and stamped with My Favorite Things Extreme Black ink pad on X-Press It cardstock.  If you are interested in Copic colors used feel free to email me and I'll gladly share the colors for the image you are interested in.
