Long Overdue!

Okay, I am long overdue for posting. I think I got a little behind with my vacation to Germany. I picked one of my favorite cards to share with you today. The stamp is one of the very first that I bought and I couldn't tell you who makes it! The card base is kraft card stock and the bronze card stock is metallic. The technique uses glue and Pearl-Ex. The glue is smeared all over the paper and you sprinkle the Pearl-Ex on and heat it up until it bubbles. A slightly messy technique but well worth the results. If you haven't played with Pearl-Ex yet you definitely should. Lots of fun techniques and I hope Stampin' Up! brings it back sometime. Let me know if you have any questions and I hope you enjoy!

Another Riley!

This is one of the Easter cards that I made this year. I'm going to send this one to my aunt. I had plans to get some more cards done, but that hasn't happened yet. Maybe I will find some time to play tomorrow. Enjoy!

Bubble Time!!!

This has to be one of my favorite images from Stamping Bella. I love it and it is so fun to color. I highlighted some of the bubbles with Stickles and the background paper has glitter so it is nice and sparkly in real life. I hope you enjoy and feel free to leave a comment!

This was a card that I designed using a layout from Queen Kat Designs at www.katstamps.com. It's another great website to check out if you aren't familiar. I have purchased some grab bags from her and they were awesome. I also have a long list of stamps that I want to purchase. You can never have too many stamps, right? Hmm...I might be bias or at least addicted! Let me know what you think of the card. Hope you enjoy!

New Stampin' Up! Toys

Here's a card that I did for an SU Occassions Swap. It uses the new Oval All set that comes out in April. The stamp set coordinates with the new Oval Scallop punch which I love! Let me know what you think!

Not the greatest picture, but I think you get the idea! All of the paper on this card is from SU and the image is from a Riley Stamp. There are tons of cute Riley images and you can get them at http://www.hannastamps.com/. I just love coloring in these images. Perfect for using your Prismacolor pencils!

New Cards!!!

I was playing the other day with my prismacolor pencils and odorless mineral spirits and this is one of the cards that I came up with. The image is from Inkadinkado stamps and I think it is adorable. After is was colored I added some glitter to give it a little sparkle. The paper is some older Creative Memories paper that I had on hand. Let me know what you think!
