Biblical Impressions Ice Cream Sundae

Hello Friends!
 Today I am sharing with you
 a 'sweet' card featuring a cute stamp
from Biblical Impressions!

For this card I did a 

lot of paper piecing. 

The papers I used are from

 We are Memory Keepers.

Thanks for visiting today.

See you soon!

Eureka- Winter Bear

For todays card, I decided to 

use the stamp Winter Bear. 

He's a cute little guy!

Actually, all of

 Eureka's stamps 

are cute!


I used a simple design for this card.
 I wanted to really spotlight the image.

I used one of my favorite techniques -

 coloring on colored paper.

I like to use Bazzil paper as it 

has some texture to it and that

 really helps to pop the colors out.

The word stamp is from QKR Stampede,

 a sister company to Eureka

Thanks for visiting today! 

I hope you got some inspiration

 while you were here!

See you soon!

Clearly Inspired Challenge #44 Pastels

Today's post is for 

Clearly Inspired Challenge #44

to use Pastel colors.

For my card I used the image

 God is Love from

 Clear Dollar stamps.

I found a very simple sketch online 

 used that as my layout.

The papers are from Memory Box and Darcies.

I hope you can play along with 

us in this fun challenge!

It's fun to play with pretty pastel colors

 in the middle of winter!

Check out the Clearly I Stamp blog 

for all the details!

Thanks for visiting!

See you next time!

Think Spring!

Hello Friends! 

I thought today would 

be a good day to 

THINK SPRING! 

I got this cute digi from 

Cornish Heritage Farms. 

They are having a design team call and

 for fun I entered using this card!

Flower Wheelbarrow Digital Stamp

I watercolored the image using

 my Derwent Inktense Colored Pencils. 

I really like the bold colors 

you get from them.

My newest favorite embellishment

 is the tiny metallic dot I used on the wheel. 

Thanks for stopping today!

I'll be back again soon!

See you then!

Bibilical Impressions- Saddle Bag

Hello Friends!

 Today is my first posting for

 Biblical Impressions for 2012! 

Glad you stopped by!

For my card today, I used the image

Saddle Bag # 37917.

This card is really a reach for me - 

I don't usually do things without color! 

I decided to shake things up a bit and

 do a monochromatic card. NO COLORING!

 Wow. For me - that's a first!

I am pleased with how the card turned out though -

 I think it goes well with the image!

I only used kraft paper and 

Brushed Corduroy Distress ink on this card. 

Thanks for stopping today! 

I hope to see you back here again!
