You Rock

 Hello and welcome friends!

As I mentioned on this post, I needed to create

another card using the other drum set I die cut.

Ta-Da! Here it is:

For some reason, I felt compelled to use orange on this card.

Gotta say, I'm digging it! LOL!

Since I still had the stamp out, I used the same one on the inside:

I'm happy to have yet another dude card ready. 😊

Thank you for stopping by. Enjoy your day!

Cactus birthday wishes

 Hi there and welcome!

I'm back with another card that

I made this week:

I combined a couple challenges for this card, and I love

how it came out! Shades of coral and teal paired 

with this fun sketch!

A simple sentiment finishes the inside:

Well, back to work. My birthday card stash is, as always,

seriously depleted. Got to make some more! LOL!

Thanks for visiting. Enjoy your day!

 Hello and welcome friends!

I've been rather MIA lately.

Between a vacation, yard work, getting my veggie

garden going, planting flowers, and mostly

just not having any desire to craft,

it's been rather a ghost town here on my blog.

Well, I finally discovered some crafty mojo this

week, and here's one of the cards I made:

This drum set die was picked out of my NBUS pile. I purchased it earlier

this year, and as usual, I'm only getting around to using it now.

It's cut from both gold and silver mirror paper. 

The idea for the background was to make a dark stage with

stage lights pointing down on the drums.

You get it, right??

I used a Tim Holtz rays stencil with Mustard Seed DOX sponged

onto the black panel. I then matted that with more gold mirror paper.

The sentiment is heat embossed in silver.

Mirror paper is SOOOO hard to photograph!

Another sentiment finishes the inside:

Yay, I have another dude card made! Now I just have to

make another card with the other drum set. 😊😊

That's it for now. Thank you for taking time to visit.

It's much appreciated!

Have a great day!

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS #250 - O is for Outdoors

 

Hello and welcome snarky peeps!

Isn't this graphic absolutely amazing?! Cudos to Sister Lee

for yet another outstanding creation!

This month at the

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS

we'd like to see your outdoor-sy creations.

Here's what I came up with:

I came across this video by Gina K and Jennifer McGuire

creating different techniques using embossing folders.

I liked it so much I created the above panel.

I may have also made 5 more:

I've been challenging myself to use items from my

NBUS stash. These lure dies are so fun to

piece together, and the color combos are endless.

I was going to use actual fishing line to tie the lures,

but it wouldn't have showed up as well, so silver

floss was used instead. Here's a glimpse into my

madness: I Googled how to tie the fishing line

and these are legit tied correctly. 😜

Another sentiment finishes the inside:

I hope that you'll play along this month in our Outdoors challenge

at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers!

For more inspiration, please do check out what my Sisters, and

our reigning Queen, Cornelia, have created for your viewing pleasure.

Thanks for visiting. Have a great day!
