Big Sister

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for stopping by today. My card today is for a little girl that just became a Big Sister. Little Vivian became a big sister to baby Charlotte. I thought this image was perfect for this card. It is an Elisabeth Bell image sold exclusively by SCACD.

She is colored with copics using a technique I learned in one of Suzanne Dean's on line classes on how to use your copics to create pastel colors.

I used a Martha Stewart border punch. Added some flowers with pearls in the center of them. The lace is some that I picked up at A. C. Moore.

Hope you enjoyed the card.

Love

Hi Everyone,

I redid my blog background. I hope you like it. I thought it needed to be spruced up somewhat.

Here is a Valentine card I did using an image by Elisabeth Bell. What ever company she designs for they are always so pretty. I colored her using my copics. The background paper is from Bo Bunny's Crazy Love collection. I cut the image using nestibilities as well as the scallops.

I used my Making Memories Slice Die Cut Machine to cut the word "love" out three time to make it thicker. A pink seam binding for the ribbon.

Thanks for stopping by to take a look.

Happy Saturday,

I love the way this card came out. Simple but cute. I have sent this to a friend. She has been swamped with work lately I wanted to cheer her up. Hope it works.

The background paper is some that I just got from Stampin up's clearance rack on line. I think it was last years Valentine's papers.

Thanks for stopping by.

Retro

Hi Everyone,

This card reminded me of the 70's. I remember clothes looking like this. I thought the background paper had that feel to it as well. It is from prima.

The ribbon and rhinestones I have had for years. My challenge this year is to try and use something on my cards that I have had for at least a year. You know the "must have" and "just in case" stuff. Admit it we all have at least a little of that.

I am not a big yellow fan but whenever I use it with purple I just sit back and say wow that looks great together. I know it's on the color wheel but even looking at it there you just think nah.... won't look right.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.
