big cups…


I went CAS/die cut/masculine.
The base card is white card stock.
The next layer is kraft card stock.
The “coffee” strip on blue card stock was made with watercolor specks.
The sentiment is from Cas-ual Friday Stamps.
The image is from Colorado Craft Company Anita Jeram “Coffee House”.
This I watercolored with watercolor pencils and die cut with the coordinating die.


africa…


I believe the stamp I used on the image for the main panel is from Technique Junkies.
I stamped it to white card stock with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with black embossing powder.
Then I created the background with Distress ink, spritzed it with water and blotted it off.
To finish the panel I stamped the sentiment from Tim Holtz “Noteworthy”.
That I backed with black card stock and applied it to purple card stock base card.


jack-o-lantern….


Making backgrounds is awesome with watercolors.
The base card is grey linen card stock with black card stock and the watercolored watercolor paper.
Next I stamped the sentiment from Colorado Craft Company “Scary Pumpkin”.
The bat, Colorado Craft Company Anita Jeram “A Little Batty Mini” was stamped on watercolor paper and watercolored with watercolor pencils.
Then I die cut it with the coordinating die and foam taped it to the card front.



birthday balloon…


I have had this strip of patterned paper for ages.
I cut it from a paper pack where I used up everything in it but this.
Knowing it would come in handy I just couldn’t toss it.
The base card is white card stock.
After backing the strip with black card stock I applied it to the base card.
On watercolor paper I stamped the bunny from Colorado Craft Company Anita Jeram “Birthday Wishing” (2022) I watercolored it with watercolor pencils and die cut it with the coordinating die.
To finish I foam taped it to the card front.
The inside quote is from the same set…
Wishing your day
is filled with lots
and lots of smiles.
