Fred She Said using the image Nolan and bullfrog

 

This is my fun card. I use to love going down to the local pond and collecting pollywogs.

So this brought back fond memories. I started by coloring the image with copics. Then thought he needs to be in a scene so I created the pond and ground. I stamped the branch in the lower left of the card. When I cut the card down I lost a lot of it. I added some grass and rocks to the dirt and then used my cloud template. I stamped a Lawn fawn tree and I wanted a larger greenery so I fussy cut out some scraps of designer papers and added them to the tree. I went over the frog and water with Wink of Stella. I stamped the sentiment also from LF.

Hello. I am back to share another card I made. This is not for a design team.. just me having fun.. well now that sounds bad.. I have fun creating for design teams too.. But this is without stress and using whatever I want for an image.. You know what I mean..

I heat embossed the Spellbinder cross and sentiment on water color paper. I then used Altenew paints and created the design around the image. I cut this down a little and added to a teal piece of designer paper.

Happiest of birthdays to you - Creative with Stamps #37

Monday April 1, 2019

 

Hello and welcome back to my blog..

Creative with Stamps #37 has a new challenge.

PLUS it's our 3rd birthday over at CWS..

wow 3 years went by quite fast. 

Our theme for this month is BIRTHDAY card

 

Also we wont be having a mid month reminder.. so please come back often and enter your card if you haven't entered your quota per our rules.

 

note: CWS challenges do not have many "guidelines",

but please read and follow the few we do have to be eligible to win.

 

 I wanted to use a Simon says stamp that I got in one of their monthly kits last year.. I stamped the image on water color paper and painted the image and background with Mission Gold water color paints. I dried it with a heat gun and stamped the sentiment and re-stamped the image ... dang it wasn't all the way dry so the bottom leaves and part of the sentiment ran.. Hubby didn't see it till I pointed it out.. but of course I can see it. (I remember doing a x stitch piece many many years ago... and made one mistake.. each time I look at this beautiful piece I still see it..)  back to my card. I cut the piece down a little and added to an piece of blue card stock. I really love the look and was a lot of fun to create.

 

Challenges:
Simon Wednesday - anything goes
Work it Wednesday at Simon Says - spring flowers
As you like it - favorite med. and why (paints, I like the blending and way you can create the background and give different depths.)
