OWH Card Making Day

Welcome to the Operation Write Home World Card Making Day Bloghop. http://operationwritehome.org/bloghop If you happened upon this post the click on the link to see the other wonderful cards. 

I made my card using Recollection paper and a super cute The Stamping Boutique image. I colored it with Copics and tried to make it look furry. Not sure it worked the way I hoped but it is still cute. The bear sleeping is my idea of winter. He is hibernating for the winter, lol.

Here is the sketch I used for my card. 

Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy the hop, Operation Write Home is such a wonderful cause.

Get Well Sketch Card

Here is my first post of the day.

The get well and the bandaid stamp are from Stampin Up and the moose is Riley. I colored Riley with Copics and inked the edges. The paper is Recollections Bright and Basic stack.

I followed this sketch. I can't seem to make a card without a sketch lately.

Here is the challenge link for the sketch http://kgiron.blogspot.com/2012/07/sweet-sunday-sketch-challenge-163.html
Here are two other challenges I am entering this card into.

Riley Sneak Peek Get Well

I love the pj's on Riley. If you saw my previous post this week then you saw some of the other sneak peaks of the stamps available from Riley and Company on Thursday when we will have a blog hop (January 26th, 10 PM EST) where each blog will have a stamp winner and stamps will go on sale.

Paper is from my scraps so can't remember where it is from 

Get Well Soon stamp is from Inspired Stamps

Copics for coloring the image ~~I put orange juice in his cup :)

Studio G ink for the edges of the ovals.

Spellbinders Lacy Circles and Ovals

gems and brads

white gel pen

Kich N Bleus Mini Harvest Collection

I added the "seeds" in the middle of the flower with my black copic and added Glossy Accents. On the leaves I added Stickles.

I used photoshop to put the flowers on the background paper. I saw this technique on Meljen's Designs I am not sure why I hadn't thought about it before. I have done it with words but didn't think about running the decorated paper through the printer. Hope you enjoy my card. Thanks!

Kich N Bleus Get Well Card

Here is my get well card I made with my DT image from Kich N Bleus bear image from the new get well collection. I love the bandaid on the foot. Head over the the blog and see all the other great projects and images. http://www.kichnbleusdesigns.com/

I colored the image with copics. I used a spellbinder cut out behind it and added a few metal glitter accents with my Irock. Thanks for stopping by!

Sew Many Recipe Challenge

Its time for another challenge at Sew Many. Head on over and join in the fun!

Recipe = the color purple, 2 papers & 3 gems.
Here is my card.

 Isn't this bear just the cutest image for a get well card. I colored him with Copics and chalked the edges.

Now head on over and join in on the fun! http://sewmanychallenges.com/

Get Well w/ Jaden Get Well

 The case of this card is a flat square that is 5 1/2 by 5 1/2 in. The I cut a 5x10 in and folded it, then cut half of one side at a 90 degree angle. Adhere this piece. Then I cut a 5 1/2 by 9 1/2 piece of paper and folded it in half. That is the inside card. Hopefully the pictures help you see what I did because my explanation is not so good, its late :)

 I colored Jaden from Sew Many Cards with what little Copics I have and the pink with my prism colored pencils. I only have 6 copics so far and I am not great at coloring with them yet. Jaden is sooo cute.

 

Here is what the inside of the card looks like. I just stamped Get Well Soon on the bottom and left lots of room for the ladies to sign the card.

 Closer view of my coloring :)

The front I cute scallops and circles using my Nestibilities and printed the sentiment on my printer. I used my I rock to add the pink metallics on there. Thanks so much for looking. I love all your comments!

365 Cards: Day 140 challenge

Man did I have some issues with this card. Probably because the phone rang this morning and I stumbled out of bed and straight into the craft room. Morning caffeine needs to kick in apparently before I start crafting. Again I made this card with scraps that I have in my well organized scraps :)



I am not into the name brands of, well anything, so I am not the kind of person to post the names of my papers or stamps, etc. Not to mention I bought all my paper a very long time ago and did not keep the cover to the stacks I bought. If you like the papers I use you will most likely find them at Joann's Fabric store in the paper stacks. They go on sell often there for $10 and I have a teacher discount on top of that.
