Pencil on Vellum

Hello All,

For today I am entering challenges from Fab Friday. Here is my card for today. Enjoy!

This card features lots of natural elements.

The vellum piece was stamped using this retired SU set. I stamped the image then flipped it over and colored it using Prismacolor pencils. Using the dark brown square under the image allows the image to really pop!

At first, I thought I cut the wood in the wrong direction but I took another look at it and loved the horizontal movement. It seems to match the movement of the stamped image.

EEK...Moon

Hello Everyone,

For today I am going to be entering CAS(E) this Sketch, Fab Friday, AAA Cards and City Crafter Challenge. Here is my card for today, enjoy!

The sky was done sponging Distress Oxide Wilted Violet, Black Soot, and Carved Pumpkin in an ombre pattern. You will also notice the moon I created is not one color or white. I have noticed when the moon is low on the horizon it seems to absorb the color of the sky. This is the look I was trying to achieve. 

The stars were done by randomly dotting a jelly pen around the moon area. I also added water by literally clapping the droplets on the paper and then picking up the ink leaving a beautiful sky.

The sentiment was designed to look a bit distressed. It was actually a happy accident by die-cutting the letters using paper with a white core. It leaves behind a cut edge look which really drives the 'eek' home.

I want to say how incredibly sorry I am for AAA Cards. They lost a wonderful and talented lady, Melissa Lane. I know it was sudden and it must be so hard to take it all in; so I wish you peace and comfort. Also, prayers for the family members who must be grief stricken. Healing, warm light is coming from my heart.

Thank you so much for stopping by and do appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to spend time with me. I hope you all have a fantastic day and lots of good crafting vibes headed your way.

Krafty Colors

Hello Crafty Friends,

Well, here I go again with another challenge. For tonight I am going to be playing along with My Time to Craft, Inkspirational, and Fab Friday. Here is my card for tonight, enjoy!

Lots of visual and tactile texture.
Notice all the buttons hiding in the flowers. 💖

Inkspirational's challenge intrigued me (Oldie but Goodie) I had to look through my stash and pick one of my first set's I received. I chose the set from Stampin' Up called 'My Friend' that I acquired in 2012ish.

I really like the burlap leaves along with the kraft paper.
They work so well together.

These colors are the exact colors from FabFriday.
However, the large buttons are saturated with the color that makes it seem darker.

Well, that should do it for me!! Thank you so much for stopping by and do appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to spend time with me. We will see you soon. Take care and happy stamping.

All the best, 
Shawna

Nautical

Hello All,

For today I am playing along with IN(K)spire_me, The Male Room, and Fab Friday. Here is my card for today, enjoy!

This card is all about texture using materials, distressing, and dimensional adhesive.
Stamped the ship and then added color using my aqua pen and ink pads.
I stamped Gorgeous Grunge in the background using brown ink and then stamped it again using bleach.

Color, Grunge, and has a definite nautical feel.
Perfect for Father's Day! 

Details showing the focal image. I felt the rope would be the perfect embellishment for this masculine card. Using all sorts of SU stamp sets: Gorgeous Grunge, Hardwood Stamp, Sentiment (not sure what the set name), and Open Seas.

Garage sale signs are probably going up faster then the tulips. And today was no exception. But today I found a garage sale with a huge sign saying 'Stamp Sale'.. My head turned so quickly that I had to turn around to see if my eyes were deceiving me. And readers, it was they weren't. Deals galore! Now I know what a kid in a candy store actually feels like! 

Thank you again for stopping by my little byte of the internet. I am going to bed and probably dream about candy! Yummmm... I hope you enjoyed your visit and if you aren't already a follower I would like to invite you to be my stalker.... I mean follower.  Take care and Happy Crafting!!

All the best,
Shawna
