Make my Monday #239 - No one stacks up to you

Monday November 18, 2024

Hello again

We have a new challenge over at 

Theme: Food / Drink


I was over at a friends house in Oct. and she is a stamper / card maker too and I brought different papers over and some in and stamped some of her images that I thought I could use some time in the future.. Boy I am glad I did cause these stacked coffee cups is perfect. But I didn't write down who the stamps are from So sorry I don't know who it belongs to but I sure had fun coloring it. I put glossy accents on the dripping coffee and some Spectrum Noir sparkle on some of the cups. I had this sentiment from Stamp Simply that is perfect. I heat embossed it and fussy cut it out

Cardz 4 Guyz #360 - Let's be friends forever

Tuesday November 12, 2024

Hello.. did you survive Halloween (we never get trick or treaters - but always buy the candy - LOL) and we have Thanksgiving coming up. I think it's going to be quiet. Family is so spread out it's sad but it is what is is.

We have a new challenge over at 

I'm the host so I picked the theme.

Theme: Your 3 favorite colors


My favorite colors are the ones below. Purple, Orange, Green... I usually use for Halloween cards and so it's refreshing that I could use the for this card instead. All Stampin up products. I do love carrots and my favorite is carrot salad which my daughter hated growing up. we still kid about it.. I don't like eggs and she doesn't like the salad.

Hello and hope you find inspiration in my cards to create.

Theme: Wild animals



I looked for wild animals and found this wood block red rubber from Magenta. Thought perfect. They are wild and an animal to some degree.. I stamped and colored with copics. I cut around the frame and added to the scrap of designer paper and then had this other scrap which picked up the colors nicely. I stamped the Tech.

Hello and It's November. It's my birthday month, son's, daughter in laws,
 and other holidays. 
it's a busy month 

We have a new challenge over at 

Theme: Retiform technique



I haven't done this technique in years.. I used masking tape and blocked off a section and added the Ranger ink and Hero arts image then moved the tape and blocked off another section and repeated till the card front was covered. I took Gold Liquitex paint and painted on the edges of the sections.  I see things I could of done different but I think it turned out nice.
