All Things Are Possible

 

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a card made from one of the images I colored while my husband was still in the hospital. The stamp set is a retired one from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps and is called Whimsical Wishes.  I've had this set for a while and just hadn't used it yet.

 

I started out by coloring the images using Castle Arts Watercolor pencils, and a blender pencil, before stenciling the clouds and grass using Tim Holtz tumbled glass and mowed lawn distress inks before layering and adding some faux brads.  The final touch was adding some green bling to finish it off.

Hello again.  Sorry for the delays between posts, however, I've been having some major issues with my migraines again.  I finally got a chance to enter this week's Kraftin Kimmie Anything Goes challenge using an image I had colored earlier in the week and used to put together this card during one of the few moments my migraines meds were working this week.

The image and designer paper were both gifted to me by a friend and I figured it was about time they got used with the rest of the embellies coming from my stash.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a great week.

It's Always Time For Tea...

Even nap time!!!

Hi there and welcome.  Today I'm sharing a card I made with a stamp I received as a RAK (random act of kindness) from Beate.  The card has been done for a week now, I just haven't been able to upload thanks to another massive migraine over the Christmas holiday.

The image is from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps newest Moonlight Whispers release and is called Dormouse.  Isn't he the cutest??  Now I normally don't like mice, or rats for that matter, unless the mouse is in a stamp and is a cute one. 

Once I had him stamped in memento tuxedo black onto MFT white perfect panels, I pulled out some retired Prima Nursery Tales designer paper and matching flowers, then allowed the designer paper to dictate the colors I used.  After everything was colored and layered, I lightly stippled some Stampin Up! amethyst ink around the edges of the image and then pulled out a MFT Jumbo Scallop Die-Namic and cut three borders before running them through my dusty paper crimper then popping up my main image over the scallop borders.  For my final touches, I pulled out some white & lavender organdy ribbon I picked up at Dollar Tree, lavender brads from my stash, and some Prima bling for the centers of the flowers.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a great day.
