My card today uses some scrap card stock that is 3.5 x 8.5 folded to create a smaller note card along with a small scrap white panel.  After stamping the images I wanted to use, I then pulled out my koh-i-noor wood less pencils along with an alcohol blender marker and got to coloring.  Once all of the images were colored, I hand drew in the mountains and stream, colored those then stippled the sky and added the birds before popping up one additional tree and some rocks. I then highlighted various areas using some copic spica pens.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a great day and don't forget to stop by the rest of the design team blogs to leave some love for a chance to win today's featured set.

I went fairly clean and simple with my card for today's set.  After stamping the vase in memento tuxedo black and coloring with prismacolor markers, I stamped several of the poppies from the Welcome Poppies set so I could cut them out and pop up for various layers of dimension.  Once that was done, I layered, added brads, some punched butterflies, drew a "flight trail" using a black marker, added some sheer ribbon, then stamped my saying from the newly released Tree Scene set.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a great day and don't forget to stop by the rest of the design team blogs to leave some love for a chance to win today's featured set.


Enjoy the Hop. Come on back tomorrow for more creative fun!!

My card today is fairly simple due to my migraines flaring up again.  After stamping the owl in memento tuxedo black and coloring with prismacolor markers, I only added some ribbon, a clip, primas and googlie eyes to finish the card off.  I may make this my husband's birthday card since we'll be celebrating his birthday a tad early (it's usually mid June).  I can say this since I know he doesn't read my blog since with his two strokes he no longer remembers how to operate a computer anymore.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.  Don't forget to stop by the rest of the design team blogs and leave some love for a chance to win today's featured set.

Enjoy the Hop. Come on back tomorrow for more creative fun!!

My card today involves several sets along with the showcased set Tree Scene.  After stamping several images in memento tuxedo black ink onto pencil paper, I colored everything using koh-i-noor pencils and blended only selected areas using an alcohol blender marker before cutting out the additional trees and bear then popping them up using pop dots and dimensionals.  For the final touches, I stippled some Tim Holtz distress inks around the edges of the main image panel and the card itself after stamping a wood grain background then stamped my saying and birds.
