Greener Grass

Hi, I hope you are having a great Sunday. Here is WI, fall has started, the leaves are changing colors and falling and it is getting cooler. So you are probably wondering why I am posting golf cards. Well, we are on our way to Mesa, AZ in a couple of days to do a show with Rubber Stamp Events. Barb posted this card on her fb page. You can see her fb page here.

If you want to find out about the convention it is here.

This is a half easel card. I just folded it like a normal card then folded the top in half. I put pop dots under the saying so it sticks up and catches the folded half. It lays flat to mail. Hope you are having good weather where ever you are.

Hello Kitty

This stamp reminds me of our cat. Our daughter lives with us until she closes on her house. Rachael has 3 dogs, with our 2 we have 5 that need to go out a number of times a day. It is impossible to keep our boy inside. Plus during the nice weather she had the windows open downstairs so he could come and go as he pleased. Now, it's 40 degrees here in WI so the windows are now all shut and he sits by the patio door and windows wanting to get out, I think he think summer is out there somewhere.

I used Copic markers to color the image.

Become Who You Really Are

Hi Vicky here today. I have a card that I made for a friend who went through by-pass surgery. She loved it and wanted to share it with everyone so she gave it back for me to use it. I used Spellbinder to cut out the pic and saying then sponged color to on it. The rose is also a Spellbinder that I inked while the die was still on and who doesn't like to get flowers.

 This is close up of the lock and key. I thought of unlocking the inner you and let her out.

I have a background paper with numbers on it because numbers are important.

I also put on a measuring tape on the card.

Hope you enjoyed the card.

Buzzing Around

Vicky here today to share a get well card. I stamped the bee and cut it out. The bee hive stamp is a solid stamp. I inked it first with yellow then took a Dew Drop Memory ink pad and flicked the edge of the ink pad over the yellow ink.

I stamped the saying and cut it out with Spellbinder.

You can see the stamps on wood mount or cling mount here.

Coffee With a Friend

Vicky here today. This is a CAS card. I stamped the coffee pot and the cups twice then colored them with Copic markers and cut them out. The saying was cut with a Spellbinder and before taking off the die, I used a Spica Glitter marker to outline around the die.

Hope you enjoyed the card.
