An Old Classic

Hi, I am pretty excited to share this card with you.

Recently I ran across a stamp company called

Kitchen Sink Stamps.  I had never heard of them but while

doing a blog hop back in September for My Sweet Petunia (MISTI)

they were featured and I was hooked.

I used the Old Classic Truck set and following the sketch

at Sweet Sketch Wednesday I created this card.

Here is the sketch I followed.

The truck stamp is a multi-step stamping, in fact, this particular image

has 7 steps to it.  It adds so much dimension.  The biggest problem is picking

out your shades of ink. 

I had just ordered a couple sets at the time but I will definitely keep

this site bookmarked to check out some of the other sets they have.

The Kitchen Sink Stamps has a blog also so check it out HERE.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed my card. 

Tulip in a Jar

Hi, it is that time again (sorry I am late) the 15th of

the month time for the Bugaboo Crafty Challenge over

at the Crafting Circle. 

For this month I chose to color the Bugaboo image

Tulip in a Jar. 

I colored the image using my Gansai Tambi watercolors. 

After I colored it I cut it out using one of my Gina Marie dies and that added another die layer behind it.  I cover the "jar" part with Crystal Lacquer

to make it look like glass.

I created the card following the sketch over at

Sweet Sketch Wednesday that runs through 5/23.

The Bugaboo Crafty Challenge runs for a whole month till June 14th 

so you have plenty time to join in the fun at both challenges.

Thanks for stopping by, will be back shortly with another post.

Daisy Birthday

Hello everyone, with Spring just around the corner I have

a very Spring lie birthday card to share.

The background is single sheet paper that I have had for years.

I had just received the Wild Rose Studio birthday branch dies so I cut it from 

bright yellow paper and added a few pearls in the flowers on the branch.

I also added a strip of Washi tape across the top of the card.  The 

daisy flowers along the bottom and side are Martha Stewart stickers. 

And that's it a pretty simple care but bright and cheery.

I will be entering this card in the following challenges
Challenge Up Your Life - Die Cuts
Just Us Girls - Floral
Crafty Friends Challenge - Flowers
Hiding in my Craftroom - Spring Colors
