I wheely miss you...

Greetings!

Happy Hump Day! If you have made it this far then tie a knot and hang on because Friday is on the horizon. :-) I am popping in quickly with another card that I made using TSG (There She Goes) stamps. I used the same "Scootin' By" stamp set, but different image and sentiment.

Here's my creation...

Wheely Miss You

I used a 6x6 scalloped card base and layered on teal cardstock and then dp. I then added a another strip of dp and punched out a red circle. I colored my image using Copic markers and paper pieced her dress. I have gotten so use to digitally paper piecing my images that it took me a second to remember how to do it the traditional way. haha Anyways, I popped my little girl on top of the circle and added the sentiment. I wanted to look like she was holding up a sign. I finished the card off with a white gel pen for accents and red gel pen for the bows in her hair.

I dedicate this card to crafting in general. I wheely missed it!! :-)

Thanks for looking.

Now get to creating...

Scootin By...

Greetings!

I hope that you had a safe and blessed weekend. I accomplished a lot this weekend. I even made dinner yesterday in the crockpot. I don't usually cook since it is just me, but sometimes (after watching a lot of the Food Network) I get the culinary urge to rattle some pots and pans. haha

Anyways, I have a busy week ahead of me (mostly crafty stuff so no complaints) and thought I would scoot by and share a card I made using TSG (There She Goes) stamps. I don't often get to play with rubber/acrylic stamps, but these are some of my go-to stamps when I do. I spend most of my time playing with my digis, but sometimes a girl just has to get a little "inky with it." I love TSG stamps, because they do stamp with such a crispness and they are such cool images and sentiments. Also, Jessica is so kind, because when I ordered my stamp sets, I ordered the same one twice and she was very quick to swap it out for another set. You can not beat that kind of service, especially when you are a scatter brain like me. :-)

Here's my creation...

Scootin' By

I used the "Scootin By" set which comes with not only fun images, but awesome sentiments as well. I started my card out with a 6x6 scalloped white cardbase and layered on some funky Chevron designer paper. I then matted white cardstock on a lime green cardstock. I stamped the dots on the white cardstock and created a header with a scrap piece of designer paper. If you look closely, you can see that I carefully cut the dp to show off the zigzag design. I then stamped my image, colored it with Copic markers and Spica markers. I cut it out and popped it up on the cardstock. I stamped the sentiment and matted it on the same lime green cardstock. I finished the card off by adding some glaze gel on the light and white gel pen for accent.

I dedicate this card to all my peeps...YOU!
I hope your Monday turns out to be a Friday in disguise. :-)

Now get to creating...

Birdie Brown's Birds

Greetings!

Happy Friday! Soooo glad it is Friday and SuperBowl weekend. Me and my sisters get together every SuperBowl Sunday and cook, eat, laugh...but DO NOT watch the game. We have only watched the SB game once in the 20 something years we have been doing this. We actually call it an "Anti-Super Bowl" party. lol It's not that we don't like football...(okay, maybe a little *gigl*) we grew up surrounded by football players ( my brothers) and the thrill is gone. Nevertheless, I hope that what ever team you are rooting for wins! :-)

Okay, I am sharing with you today another challenge card created using a freebie image from Birdie Brown. Torico, the owner of Birdie Brown has the cutest images and if you haven't visited her blog (or store) you should. She is a fascinating, talented and a generous person. She hand carved her own stamps (not sure if she still does)! Can you believe that?

Here's my creation using BB's image

I am entering it in the "There She Goes" Inspiration challenge and this picture was my inspiration. I digitally paperpieced the birds and flowers, because I was entering it in another challenge, but decided to create a different card for that challenge.

I used another awesome sentiment from Paulette over at Create with TLC. I think it is perfect for this image.
