HOPE YOU'RE ALL A TINGLE WITH THE HOLIDAY JINGLE!

 "HOPE YOU'RE ALL A TINGLE WITH
THE HOLIDAY JINGLE!"  

I love these gals because they are so much fun to color and just so funny!  The gal above in green shorts and the sentiment below, are from Art Impressions.  The gal below holding the Christmas tree is from Inky Antics. The images are stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic markers.   Whew, my Christmas cards are all done for this year.   

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

CHRISTMAS CARD 2011 PART 2

I always liked this little Christmas tree rubber stamp.  It is marked Smith and Rowe, Las Vegas, NV.  I hope that means it was MADE in the USA!  My Christmas cards ARE made in the USA! This was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic markers.  I made just over 120 of these and will mail many of them to family and friends, and I've already donated the rest.  Thanks for stopping by.  More Christmas cards coming!

CHRISTMAS CARDS 2011

 Have you got a lot of "leftovers" from previous Christmas cards?  I have been trying to use some of mine and these two cards are the result.  The background paper is from an old stash I got at Michael's years ago.  The tree is a Spellbinders diecut with the positive image of one designer paper adhered inside solid green card stock.  Below is the same Christmas tree diecut with iris folding inside.  There is red ribbon under the computer generated greeting. And I DO wish you a TREE-mendous Christmas!

December Birthday Card!

Here is a CAS birthday card in Christmas colors.  Image and sentiment are from Art Impressions, stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic markers  The background is ink daubers in yellow and green dye inks. Thanks for stopping by.  Christmas cards are coming next.

THANKSGIVING EASEL CARDS

 Wishing you all a
HAPPY THANKSGIVING
filled with 

Family, Friends, Food and Fun!
Enjoy!

 These are some of my Thanksgiving Easel cards for this year.  The cornucopia image is from Stampin Up, colored with Copic markers, die cut with Nesties Labels Three.  After looking at these photos, I went back and added darker Copics outlines around all of the the pumpkins and blended again.  Lots to learn with these markers, but I am enjoying the journey. The EASEL Card Template is HERE!

WORRY NOT: GET WELL CARD

Here is a clean and simple card I made for a friend. I need a little string bow at the top to finish it off. The Suzy's Zoo image is from Rubber Stampede and the sentiment is fromVerses Rubber Stamps. It's colored with Copics. This was a nice break from Christmas Cards. Thanks for stopping by.

RECYCLED HALLOWEEN

Here is a RECYCLED HALLOWEEN card. The background was a Halloween envelope that I trimmed down to use as a background layer. Then I used an oval paper punch to punch out two of the spiders from a scrap of the envelope, glued them together, added spooky string and adhered to the sign.

HALLOWEEN SCENE CARD

Had a little fun with this Halloween Scene card made from "leftovers!"

PUMPKINS FOR SALE!

This is one of my favorite Fall images from SparkleNSprinkle. It's from Stamp Set 227 Harvest Scarecrow. I use it every year around this time. But this year I did not have to cut it out myself because I used the NEW Cutting Edge Cut File that coordinates with this set, CE131. No scissors!
After cutting the image with my Pazzles Inspiration Cutter, I used a stamp positioner to stamp with black ink and then colored with Copic markers. I adhered the image with foam pop dots for a little dimension. I like the white border. Thanks for stopping by. More to come!

HAPPY FALL YA'LL!
