Southern Beach

Such a relatively easy card to achieve. I first created the mask with the Layering Ovals die on scrap paper. I placed the mask over the White cardstock and stamped the tree in Memento ink. With sponge daubers, I used Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie to create a sky, and with Soft Suede made the sand below.

Once the mask was removed, I stamped the sentiment in Memento ink.

Thanks for taking a closer look!

Sweet Rose


This card is a hybrid card.... with the word 'Sweet' printed out with the 'Maratre' font on Whisper White cardstock. The rest is made the traditional way with stamps and paper. My color combo for the flowers is Blackberry Bliss and Purple Posy. For the leaves it's Pear Pizzazz and Mossy Meadow.

Thanks for taking a look!

Wildly Chic

A cute little card for my 9 month old niece, as a thank you for the cute handprint Santa ornament she made (well, her Mom and Dad did most of the work, but it was her handprint). Also a thank you for my raccoon socks and Uncle Mike's Mt Dew container. We love them!

As my niece is just 9 months, I didn't want to send a regular thank you card. I opted to use an animal...the elephant... as her name is Eleanor.... Ellie for short. Cute!

I colored in the image using Stampin' Blends markers.
