the path to a friends house.. Make My Monday #167

Monday January 31, 2022

Hello

We have a new challenge over at

Make My Monday #167

Our theme for this challenge is

KISSING TECHNIQUE

The kissing technique is where you take a solid stamp of your choice and a detailed stamp.. Ink up the solid one and then using a different ink, ink up your other detailed stamp and stamp it on the solid one, then stamp on your paper. I used a solid Great Impressions rectangle and the leaves are Hero arts. I used Simon says inks. (you can use U-tube to find out more on the technique) I then used My favorite things die to cut out and add to the Quick Quote scrap. The sentiment is from Stampendous and I just tucked it under the image. I added a few metal blings.

Hello

Are you ready for a new challenge over at 

Cardz 4 Galz #143

Our theme is

COFFEE / TEA

I dug through a few of my coffee / tea images and found this one. i think I have used it before but it's been awhile if I have.. at least I think so.. lol.. one day is the same as the next.. half the time I am not sure what day it is. being retired and stuck at home because of this pandemic is taking a toll.. Anyhow I stamped this fun Stampendous  House mouse image and colored with copics. I added a little Spectrum noir sparkle brush to the small amount of coffee showing. Yes it's coffee. I don't drink tea unless it's Matcha and cold.  I added the Sugar Peas sentiment.  I mounted on a piece of Authentique green paper.

Hello, Hello, Hello - Do - Al (l) creative challenge #30

Saturday June 1, 2019

 

Hello and I am so excited Summer is my fun time. I love the heat.. not that Washington State gets that hot.. mid 70's and 80's.. yes we have gotten hotter but its not often..

 

So are you ready for a fun challenge from

Do-Al(l) Creative #30

 We have a fun theme. I have never made this kind of card before..

The theme is Lift card..  what is it you ask.. Well it is as you'll see below on my card..  you add a tag to the out side of your card and on the inside of the card are two more tags.. One you lift and reveals the sentiment  or image.. It's better to just see my card to see what it all means.

 

Oh so this is the front of my card.. I used some My minds eye script paper and some bakers twine. I then used a Tim Holtz tag and created the background with my cloud template. I then used Lawn Fawn trees, hills, houses and hearts and die cut them out. I used copics to color the houses and scraps to create the trees. The ground is with Ranger ink. I stamped the Simon says hello.

Ok so the inside top tag ..the lift tag.. again another TH tag. More twine and I used my cloud and ground template to create the background. More scraps for the tree and copic for the house color.  I just used the outline die for the hearts.

 

so now we are on the reveal part .. the sentiment. I colored the TH tag with Ranger and added the Stampendous sentiment and a little SS heart. I added some scraps to the background before I adhered the tag down..

The path to a friend's house - Catch the Bug

Saturday November 11, 2017

 

Welcome back and to Catch the bug where we have another week long challenge for you.  HOME SWEET HOME..

FEATURE A HOME OR WORD HOME/HOUSE ON YOUR CARD

 

 

this is my card and I chose to use the sentiment with the word House in it. I am using this cute kid called

 "Winter kidz cat" and you can find him in the Bugaboo store..

  I colored the image during the summer with Prisma colored pencils and now that winter is right around the corner this would be a great time to use it. I now added the clouds using my cloud template. I then cut the image down and went around the edges with Quick Quote chalk ink. I had this background piece I created quite awhile ago using a stencil and texture paste. I then went over it once it was dry with Dylusions sprays to give it a nice colorful look. I stamped the sentiment from Stampendous.
