Take Care at Queen Kat

This is my last card for the Queen Kat Design Team spot. I once again used the swirly tree stamp and this time I used a waxed technique where I used a white crayon and then my inks with some daubers to swirl the colors. The paper is SU DP from about a year ago I think but I can not recall the name of it (but you will I am sure!). I actually went so far as to use a little bit of metal on this card too!

Sorry this post is short but it is a busy weekend and so I am trying to plan ahead for the week with posts and things. Have a wonderful week all!

Your're on my mind at Queen Kat

This here card is one that I designed for Queen Kat designs for my April design team spot. It is the swirly tree and I used the dew drops on the tree to give it a little color and add some depth to the card. The DP is Cosmo Cricket with a little SU real red and carmel. I figured this little tree is pretty versatile in that you could stamp it in any color to change the season or theme and then add things to it. I have some small little mittens I thought would be cute hanging on it for the winter months (which by the way I am trying to forget!). Sorry it is short but we have the funeral today so doing this ahead of time. Check out Queen Kats goodies!

Best is yet to be at Queen Kat

Today's card is one that I designed for Queen Kat Designs as the quest designer for April. The Swirly tree is stamped with wild wasabi and matted with the same. The dot background is stamped with Baha Breeze and matted on blue bayou. At first I did not like this card, but then it started to grow on me because it is bright and cheerful and as a matter of fact I sent it out to a dear friend for her birthday and I hope she likes it!

Sorry it is so short today but recovering from the weekend and feel a little behind in things. I hope you all had a wonderful Easter and great week to look forward to!

Sending Flowers

I want to thank Kat over at Queen Kat Designs for inviting me to be a guest designer for the month of April. It was a lot of fun to play with the toys and put together some fun items for her. Today's card uses the dots background stamp. I stamped the polka dots on pretty in pink SU cardstock and layered it with some "retired" DSP from SU as well. I then used my cuttlebug and the flowers die to cut out a variety of flowers and mixed and matched them. I really wanted this card to be springy and showcase the polka dots and they went so well with it. I added the little charm and wha-la! Fun card to give to a friend.

This is short today- it was a busy weekend and I have soooooooo much to catch up on.
