Congratulations to this week's Featured Stamper, Patti! I chose this card as my inspiration:
Berry Branches by Patti S. Brown at Splitcoaststampers
Special request from a friend for some Southwest cards. This is the first of a set. I forgot where the paper is from, but it was originally black and gold....using GIMP, I changed the colors to turquoise and rust for a Southwest feel. I love how it came out!
We were in heaven as we visited the 1225 after the movie premiere. Someone asked the tour guide who could drive this steam engine. Gene's face lit up when the the tour guide pointed to me and said, "Two people in this building - me and her." I created this layout for the Large Alpha/Number Cherry Challenge at Cherry on Top.
I used We Are 3 digital paper. Title was computer generated. The fork and spoon are from Creative Fabrica....and I can't remember who created the other clip art.
Watercolor Chicadee Winter Bird...inspired by this week's Featured Stamper at Splitcoast. Used everything from my stash.
I love PolkaDoodle pre-colored images - mostly 'cause I don't have to work so hard to make a fun card. They are a great way to put together lots of Christmas cards quickly. Today I'm using Time to Give.
This month's Kerst Christmas Challenge is themed "Use Green." I added just a couple green accents - allowing me to use scrap papers in my stash. Come join the challenge at https://www.facebook.com/groups/1060810930603477.
Just finished Christmas gifts for my nephews...so sitting pretty now. Tried a few new things...with both good and bad results. First item with a "swoosh." Kind of like that!
This card is very easy to create. Just use a photo-editing program to include the background scene, place the fairy, and add a sentiment.
This is one of my favorite gift card holders I've made - and it won me a cool $10 gift card.
Shhhh. It's a gift - the first page of a wedding album I'm making for friends getting married in a couple weeks. I don't think she ever looks at my blog....so good to share here.
I used Featured Stamper 927 from Splitcoast for inspiration for this card - and recreated the card digitally.
This card was scraplifted from this week's Featured Stamper at Splitcoast - SybilMcC. The paper is Paper Studio. The flamingos are Waterfcolor Flamingos from Creative Fabrica.
Here's a layout I made for a Cherry Top Challenge with a "Friends" theme. The starry background paper has been in my stash since I was teaching classes. All the other papers are scraps in mystash. The border is the leftover pieces from scalloped borders I cut some time ago. The butterflies were a gift from another crafty friend that were perfect for this page. That's the kind of layout I like - Open a couple storage folders, pull out some papers, and you're done! Oh, I did cut the lacy circle in the middle....but I cut several different circles so next time I need a circle....check out the stash!
I got a bundle of flamingos from Creative Fabrica. I think every one of them is so cool, I'm on a mission to use each one! This is the time I wish I lived in Florida so I could use them in all my layouts. LOL! Here is just one card.
