Stamping on DP


Hello again, just wanted to post another card I managed to finish for StampTV's Potluck Friday challenge, which was stamping on DP and coloring the image so the print shows through. Interesting technique. Had some fun with it! The butterfly is GKD and flowers are SU.

A little update!

Hi Everyone! Well another weekend has come and gone. Part of it was washed out by a huge storm, and now it is cool like a fall day! Summer is not very cooperative with us this year. I made this card for StampTV'S color challenge, which was to use the colors we saw in our gardens or in nature. These are my Blackeyed Susans, the stamp is GKD. Have been trying to work on my daubers for blending colors, a technique I would really like to master. Thanks for looking and have a great new week!

Good Morning Friends!
I know I haven't been around for a while, but that doesn't mean I haven't been checking things out. Was out of town yesterday for a game of golf with BIL and wife and had a gorgeous summer day! Imagine 2 in a row. Played lousy but had a great time! Played the day before that and guess what, Yep hubby has managed to convince me to another one today. Tongue hanging, I'm going to chase that little white ball again. Yesterday was humiliating enough, but I just have to go back for more! Now the thing with this crazy game, is that although I only slept 4 hours last night, either I won't have the strenght to swing my clubs, or I so won't care that I'll make some great shots, just because I won't force anything. It's a make or break game, you never know! LOL! We'll be with fun people, and it might be the last of nice sunny days, as they are anouncing rain again!!! Hopefully tonight I will have sometime to post a little creation!
Have a great one! Enjoy the love that surrounds you!

Punched!


Well here is another card for a challenge on StampTv, using punches.
I had some scraps I thought I could use for this and found this butterfly backround paper but now that I look at it, it certainly is a busy card!

My pup!

My pup Loco, is my faithful little friend. He is always around me and
many times you'll find him where I make my cards!

He is a mix of Lhasa Apso and Bichon Frise. Picked him up at a shelter when I fell in love with him at first sight.

A great companion!

Hibiscus and Butterflies

Decided to do another crayon resist card, but this time I chose a couple of colored crayons for my butterflies, wanted to see the effect! Was happy with the results and will probably try more with this technique. It helped control the color in the smaller spaces, especially to avoid having to much of the same colored ink when applying with the daubers!
