Santa and Friends

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I'll try harder not to post two Christmas cards in a row.

The end of the month is almost here and challenges will be closing.

I searched through my UFOs for an image of Santa and friends but

couldn't find any...

so I made more.  One made it on a card, and my UFO stash is growing again.

It was easy enough to stamp all the images in this set at once and it was fun

coloring them with Copics.  These images always make me smile!

Challenges:

Christmas Kickstart #85 - Santa and His Sidekicks

Rudolph Days - ATG Christmas

Flowers in Bloom

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Seize the Birthday has a prompt of alcohol.

I thought about raising a glass, but decided to pull out a piece of background

done in alcohol ink instead.

Actually I pulled out two pieces.  I used pink to stamp and die cut the flowers and 

a piece of green for the stems.

Another for those May birthdays.

Spring Thank You

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

A quick card inked with markers and blended with a damp waterbrush.

I did some second and third generation stamping of splatters to add a little color

to the background.  It was the perfect size to frame in this window.

We recently went to Nags Head for a few days.  This card is for the sweet

neighbor that picked up our mail and kept an eye on our house while we were gone.

Good neighbors are a real blessing!

Want to see some of what we saw at the beach?

Day 1 - High seas and crashing waves

Day 2 - Fog and wind

Day 3 - A little calmer

Day 4 - Sunny skies in time to go home

But it's all good at the beach!

Challenges:

The Four Seasons - May-Spring

Card Recipe

Stamps:  Painted Poppies (SU), Snippets (PB)

Ink:   Calypso Coral, Granny Apple Green, Soft Sky, Soft Seafoam, Versafine Onyx Black
