Now for the sketch -

I used the image Cattail Pond  to create a sympathy card.  I use my Inktense pencils and water brush to color this sunrise image.  Such a peaceful scene.  I used washi tape for my diagonal strip with some twine and a small wood veneer heart for a nice finishing touch.

Oh Nuts!!

Good Tuesday Morning everyone!!
I hope you are ready for another great sketch and a fabulous sponsor!
This week we are sponsored by Doodle Pantry!!

Doodle Pantry takes pride in creating a diverse selection of doodling styles, like realistic or whimsical, and all of which are family and kid friendly illustrations.  We hope you enjoy our wide variety of styles for every family occasion!

On to the sketch!

I choose to use the squirrel from Doodle Pantry's Calendar Minis set to create a fun Belated Birthday card. (Yep, late again!)  Inside it says, I missed your birthday!

Found these cute wood veneer shaped buttons on a recent trip to Hobby Lobby.  Inked this one up with Distressed Inks before adding a bow and adhering it to the card.  A little bit of ric rac and twine finish off the card.

Now it's your turn.  Use this week's Tuesday Morning Sketch to create a card, link it up for a chance to win some wonderful Doodle Pantry images.

Check out what the rest of the DT did with this sketch!

Tweet Christmas card!

Sharing a card I made using some incredibly cute Purple Onion stamps.
If you haven't heard already, Purple Onion is getting ready to release a new set of stamps from Stacey Yacula called A Charming Winter.
Head on over to the Purple Onion blog and check out the Charming Winter Giveaway.
Here is my very first Purple Onion card.

I used my watercolors to create this little winter scene.  Added some falling snow using texture paste and the falling snow stencil from Simon Says Stamp.

Close up of the little sentiment tag.  Can you see the snowflake behind the sentiment?

I will be sending this card to the Caring Hearts Card Drive.  What a great cause!  Check it out HERE.

Thanks so much for stopping by! 

God bless!

Home - where the journey starts

Quick post so I can share a card I made for my son who just bought his first home!  So proud of him!
I am combining some awesome challenges today.
The sketch is from CAS(E) This Sketch and the topic from CASology!

   



I used Unity's Itty Bitty stamp called Begins at Home.  I stamped the house image in Versamark the stamped it on white card-stock and heat embossed it with clear EP.  Used some Distressed Ink to add the color to the image outline.  Quick and simple like a CAS card should be!
Thanks so much for stopping by!!
God bless!!

Which witch is which?

Sharing a little Halloween card I created thanks to the sugar sketch over at Sugar Pea Designs.

I used this cute little witch from Tiddly Inks.  The colors are not very "Halloweeny" because the current Tiddly Ink challenge is to use non-traditional Halloween colors.  I also tried to create a moon behind the witch using a circle die cut and some Distressed Inks.  After inking up the moon I flicked water onto the circle to give it a cratered look. (not sure is cratered is a word!)
I also finally used my spider web die I purchase on a going out of business clearance sale.  I added a little bit of confetti to make the wand appear to be zapping magic.
 Thanks for stopping by!
 God bless!

A Sweet Tuesday Morning Sketch!

Happy Tuesday everyone!
Not only do we have a great sketch, but we have one of my favorite sponsors!
This week we are sponsored by Sweet and Sassy Stamps!
I have been a fan of Sweet and Sassy for a while now.  They have some really sweet stamps!
If your not familiar with them go check them out now then come back and play along!
Here is this week's Tuesday Morning Sketch!                                                                                                     

I used Sweet and Sassy's Happy Happy stamp and die to create this fun little card! I stamped one of the sentiments from the set in the lower right hand corner before embossing it with my cloud embossing folder.  I stamped the sun and the clouds and the used the matching dies to cut them out! Colored the sun with Copics.  I am starting to dive into the world of Copic markers!  The clouds were sponged around the edges with some Distressed Ink.  A few little sequins make for a quick, fun card!
Thanks so much for stopping by my little blog today.
Be sure to visit the other DT members, they have some wonderful cards to share with you!

Snowflakes and Swirls

I've started making Christmas cards for the Caring Hearts card drive.
Here is one I created thanks to the October Week 3 Viva la Verve sketch.

I went with a softer color scheme.  I used Simon Says Stamp Sea Glass to ink up the scroll and the swirls behind the snowflakes.  Used the snowflakes from Verve's Merry and Bright set to create the silver embossed flakes.  The Merry Christmas is from Verve's Peace on Earth set. I used some Copic BG32 to color a few snowflake Dazzle stickers and a few iridescent gems.     I also spritzed the scroll with some glimmer mist.  In sparkles in real life!
Thanks for stopping by!
Hope you have a great week.
God bless!
