rose…


It’s so nice to think of your friends on their birthday and send them a card!
The base card is cream card stock with a gold card stock layer.
The main panel is water color paper with a ripped edge.
I used Tim Holtz stamps and gold embossing powder to heat emboss.
I watercolored it with Distress Oxide ink and applied flicks of Brilliance gold ink.


flurry…


I really wanted this squirrel to look like he was coming out of the woods to get the snow flurries!
I used:
white, kraft and blue card stocks
Distress faded jeans ink
MFT Snow Globe Singles stamps
MFT Winter Wonder stamps
MFT micro cloud edges stencil
MFT slimline drifts and hills stencil
Copic markers

santa…


This is one of those times that I thought I was using the right media and then found out I had something better.
I bought Ohuhu markers to try them and was very disappointed.
I stamped the Tim Holtz image on what I thought was four pieces of watercolor paper and started watercoloring them with different watercolor pencils and crayons.
Then I fund the fourth piece was regular card stock so I pulled out the Ohuhu markers and started coloring…was I surprised.
The above card is the result.
I may keep them!!!

boo…


I couldn’t resist using green for this challenge!
The ghosts and sentiment, unknown company, were die cut from a background made with green acrylic paint on blue card stock to get the funky green effect.
