Kit-Tea-Cat

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a quick, clean and simple, one layer card I made.  After a frustrating day with doctor's trying to figure out what's going on with me, I needed a quick and easy card to try and take my mind off of my health issues.

I started out by stamping the image, and saying, from the Newton's Nook Designs set called Newton's Mug, I bought last year and hadn't used yet.  After stamping the image/saying in memento tuxedo black ink, I colored it using my Castle Arts pencils before blending a couple of retired Stampin Up inks, summer sun and yo-yo yellow.  The only embellishment added are some white sequins I found in my stash.

Prickly Fall Coffee

 Hello and welcome.  I don't know about you, but I am so ready for the seasons to change..and soon!  I've had enough of summer thanks to this year's record breaking heat.  The best part about fall arriving is Pumpkin Spice Latte's!  Yes!!!  So my card today basically takes a "summer" stamp and turned it into a fall card.

I started out by stamping my images from Newton's Nook Cuppa Cactus in memento tuxedo black ink onto some scrap white card stock before coloring using both prismacolor and copic markers.  I then went and stippled some Stampin Up ink (garden green, apricot appeal, pumpkin pie) around my colored image before layering and adding brads then adhering it to my card base using pop up glue dots.  After I had adhered my layered image, I decided I should have distressed the edges of the layers so I used a fingernail along the edge to distress it for me.  After adding some thread along the side, I added some flowers punched from more scrap card stock using Ranger's Glossy Accents.  The final touches were ice stickles in the center of the flowers and a black glitter gel pen highlighting the cactus spines before spritzing some garden green marker ink.   I'm really happy with how this turned out since I made it while still dealing with a migraine.

Hello Kitty!

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a clean and simple one layer card made using my never before used (NBUS) Newton's Birdhouse set from Newton's Nook stamps.  After stamping my image, and saying, in memento tuxedo black ink, I colored it using Castle Arts pencils.  The only embellishment I used was a clear 3D glaze pen to highlight the hearts on my card.
