Fall in the Spotlight



I made this card for the Gina K "spotlight" technique challenge. I embossed the brown cs. Cut out the main image with my leaf nestie and stamped leaves from melanie's year of leaves stamp set. I daubed the leaves and colored the focal image with my copic markers. Off to play in a golf tourney. Enjoy your weekend!

It's Friday!



I have another card for you this morning. I actually like the way this card turned out. I worked on coloring the coffee bag with copics and then daubed with Memento desert sand ink. I submitted this card for the stamptv color challenge, which was to use red, brown and ivory.

It's Thursday!



I do have a card for you today! I feel I haven't been home, so I have not had much opportunity to stamp. I have been working on this card in bits and pieces. I really wanted to color this sunflower, so here it is. I used my yellow copics to color the flower. The flower center is a mix of browns topped with SU crystal effects. Used my oval nesties and fancy tags. Enjoy your warm Thursday!

Labor Day Weekend


I am off to the Labor Day Golf Tournament. Weather looks spectacular. Last time to wear my white shorts and white pants, if you abide by "no white after Labor Day." I made this card for the Case stamptv challenge. You had to copy someone else's card and change two things about it. I loved this watercolor technique and tried it for myself!

TGIF


This completes the first full week of kids at school. It feels like I never had summer. I think I may have made one card this week! I made this for the ginak stamptv color challenge: pink, white, black and grey. I just love coloring this dress with copics. This card showcases some of my new toys: Cuttlebug diamond plate, Spellbinders: fancy tags and label 7. Have a great weekend. Weather is super!
