Ev's 54th Birthday!




I made this card for my husband for his birthday yesterday. It reminded me so much of him and our dog Lilly. They are real buddies. He had a nice birthday. We are having birthday dinner and cake tonight.

I just love these purrs and pants stamps. Not very many companies have stamps that are so much like our dog Lilly. I was so happy to find them.

Hope you all are enjoying your weekend. The weather here is all rainy and windy but at least it isn't snowing. That will come soon enough I am sure.

Recipe:
Stamps: Purrs and Pants, Happy Birthday unknown
Paper: So Safton, Watercolor and sage shadow
Ink: Black Stazon
Accessories: Various punches, nesties, cuttlebug, su markers and aquapainter

Will be back real soon with another Christmas card to show you.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend

Cheers

Happy Birthday Dave!



I made this card for my bil Dave for his birthday today. I bought these stamps a while ago from Purrs and Pants and thought that this card would be perfect for Dave. My niece has a black lab and Dave seems to have a new best buddy. They do alot together.

I found this card a challenge as I knew that I wanted to use this designer paper but where it is so busy I wasn't sure what else I was going to do with it. My dh helped me out and told me to use some black around the image. It seemed to work out well. The pattern was just so busy that it threw me off. I have to say thought that I am pleased with how it turned out. I first had the image all done on white paper and then didn't like it and thought that it would look better done on vanilla and I was glad that I did.

I will be back again tomorrow night with another card from my watercoloring class.

Recipe:

Stamps: Purrs and Pants
Ink: Momento Black
Paper: Pacific Point, Black, Very Vanilla, Pets DP from DCWV
Accessories: cuttlebug, nesties, ribbon, copics, bone punch

Enjoy the rest of your evening.

Ev's Christmas Card!



I made this card for my dh for Christmas. I bought these stamps a little while ago with the intentions of using it for him. It reminds me so much of our dog Lilly who is a Golden Labrador and our cat Alex. The only difference is that Alex has a bob-tail. I should have only stamped half the tail. Oh well, better luck next time. Ev was happy with how it turned out and so was I.

Have you done all your Christmas visiting yet? I have done all that I want to do and now I am just going to sit home and relax and take it easy.

I have more cards to show you so I will be back tomorrow with another one.

Enjoy your evening.

Still Around!



I know, I know it has been way too long since I have posted anything and I have to appologize but sometimes life just seems to get in the way of what we want to do. Now the summer is over and I have lots of time to get back to making cards again. In fact it is soon time to start on those Christmas cards again. Where does time go.

I made this card for my dh Ev for his 53th birthday yesterday. When I firt saw this image on SCS I fell in love with it because it reminded me so much of Ev and our dog Lilly. I just had to order it and use it for an occasion.

Ev really like this because it was of him and his buddy.

Recipe:

Stamps: Purrs and Pants, Snap Stamps
Ink: Pallet Noir and More Mustard
Paper: Whisper White and dp from a cats and dog pack from Walmart and ruby red
Accessories: Punches, chalks, cording and pencils and stumps and taltine

Hope you all enjoy your weekend and I hope to be back again on the weekend with some new creations
