How's everybody doing? We've had a pretty quiet weekend - stayed home, created several cards and made chocolate chip cookies. This is one of the cards I finished.
Izzy is from Stamping Bella and the postcard and background paper are from Iralamija. Isn't Izzy a darling image?
I colored her with Copics - I took an online class, but I seem to be branching off with my own ways of doing things. Actually, I think that's what makes a great class, when you can take what you learn and make it yours. Even though it's over 100 degrees, I'm still craving hot tea. Is that odd or what? Off to have tea - have a wonderful day!
Meet Lulu. Isn't she cute? I'm sure some of you already know her, but she's new to me. I found her at Stamping Bella.
The cherry postcard and background paper are from Iralamija's shop. The cherry and sentiment stamps are from Papertrey Ink. I'm going to link this up at The Ribbon Reel Challenge blog. Here's the challenge: has to include fruit, a brad, and two ribbons, lace or twine. I think I got it all - my brad is the pretty pink gem wrapped around the bows.
One of the things I remember from childhood is my mom making cherry pie. She actually just made it for Father's Day, too...Yummy!
Fun news: I was featured at Paper Issues yesterday! Thank you Paper Issues! And also at Decorate to Celebrate! Thank you so much!
I'm really trying to use those stamps that I've had for a long time and haven't used. I love this little girl from Crafty Secrets. The sentiment is a really cool font, too.
Surprisingly enough, this card is made from scraps left over from other projects. The pieces were just kind of lying there, looking rejected... When I thought they looked rather pretty together. The end result made me happy!
Hope you've had a great weekend. We went to several antique stores in Guthrie yesterday and came away with buttons, vintage postcards, beautiful plates with cherubs on them and we had fun with wonderful friends, John and Lisa! Glad you stopped by!
