It's your Birthday, Wish Big

I wanted to show you a Birthday card that I made for my nephew.
I didn't want it to sissy looking for him. So I just added a balloon brad and some jute string. The design paper from Karen Foster has all about a birthday, so it worked well for him.
I colored the Big with Tombow Markers. I think it is cute and my nephew will love it.

Thanks for stopping by and come back again soon.

Happy Birthday Poppies

Here is a very pretty Poppy Card that I made last month.
I love the orange color of the poppies, I colored my poppies with a Tombow Marker the same color as my sister's poppies. She has oodles of them. I have only one poppy plant and it is white with a deep purple center. It is pretty, but I love the orange poppies.

The Poppy Stamp is from Hero Arts
Paper and Ribbon are from my stash.

                               Here is my sister's Poppies... 
                               aren't they pretty?



Thank You for stopping by...

Have a beautiful day

Finally getting back to posting.

I just love this cutie, and isn't this so cute.
This Bear is a stamp from There She Goes Rubber Stamp Company.
The set is called Back in 10. Isn't that a perfect Title for this set.
I colored the bear image with Prisma Watercolor Pencils. This give the image a soft look.
The sentiment is from Hero Arts Company.
The Martha Stewart Border Punch used on the bottom of the card went perfect to finish off this card.
Only thing left to add was the ribbon and just about all my cards have ribbon on them. This is Royal Blue Grosgrain Ribbon.

Fall Leaves

Love this card, I did it for my last card workshop. I seen one like it on the Gina K blog. So I thought I would try it. I had to find the right paper that would accept the bleach and turn the right color of the leaves and this paper worked so nicely. I embossed the leaves with Versa Mark, used black embossing powder and heat set it. Now I added regular household bleach with a paint brush just inside the black embossing lines. This card is so pretty in person.
