Thinking of You

It's Sunday again and the challenge over at Stamptacular Sunday is "not just an ordinary card". No flat cards allowed! The sponsor of this challenge is Birdie Brown with the winner getting their choice of three digis! For this challenge I made an easel card, a style which I absolutely love but haven't done lately. I made it for my 89 years young Grandma who just had back surgery (not usually done on someone her age!). It was strange seeing her so helpless and immobile, since she is usually going, going, going! (I swear she can run circles around me), but she is doing really good considering. I made this for her to let her know that even though I don't visit as much as I'd like that I was still thinking of her and wishing her a quick recovery! 

I finally got my "big" Wild Orchid Crafts order last week and had to use some of my new flowers! I also won a challenge over at the Cupcake Craft Challenge a while back and received my beautiful Prima flowers from Crafts U Love and had to use some of those, too!

I used Prima Madeline papers and the image is of course "Whispy" from Saturated Canary colored with Copics. I added some glitter glue to her wings for some added glitz! The way I did the inside allows for my Grandmother to put the card at three different angles depending on what she wants: where I have pictured it, using the pearls as a stop, or using the sentiment frame as a stop.

 I really love this card style and can't wait to see what you all come up with for this "No Flat Card" challenge!

Trixxie Treat

Hi everyone! Another day, another card. I can't believe it! This card is for many challenges including Kenny K which is a spooky card! I have colored up "Trixxie Treat" again for this Halloween card. I am using older papers that I have added some glitter glue to the spiders to add a little something.  I have used the sketch for the Sketch and Stash challenge and added a button and twine bow for the Dutch Dare challenge! 

I went for a paler look for her with E50, E51 and R20 Copics. No flowers, can you believe it? 

I had a lot of fun with this one and it came together pretty easy! I hope you all like it as much as I do!

It's another challenge over at Stamptacular Sunday! It's one everyone loves: no rules! A super easy one just don't forget to stamp! For my card I used the adorable image "Sassy Sally's Big Cupcake" and My Mind's Eye's Dolled Up paper pad! I tried a fun card, I think it's called a recessed frame card. I watched a youtube video by Biata of Splitcoaststampers and it was a really simple well done tutorial. There are so many fun things you could do with this card! I made this card with my niece in mind. I already  sent it off and hope she enjoys it. She is turning 3, just one month older than my daughter, which is really neat!

I

I am on a turquoise/aqua kick, so be prepared for future posts! Isn't she a cute image! She reminded me of my niece and I tried coloring her similarly. Decorated with my favorite embellishment: Wild Orchid Craft flowers!

I hope you all find some inspiration and try out this different card if you haven't already! And don't forget to pop over to Stamptacular Sunday to see what my teamies have created and join in!
