Father's Day...

Father's Day is fast approching...

A friend of mine at work, asked me to make a father's day card for her.

So I employed Gina K's technique for the wood grain effect.

You can watch her video HERE.

I used and old faithful stamp here called

Muskoka Moment - The Artful Stamper

The sentiment is Hero Arts.

p.s. Sorry if things look a little different...

my Macbook is on the fritz, so I'm using my old laptop.

Eleanor is another stamp by Kraftin Kimmie.

I coloured her up with my copics,

cut her out along with the bucket,

and with Stampin' Up! dimensionals,

I put her on an emblem (pg. 27)

cut from the Forever Young Cricut Cartridge.

The papers are October Afternoon-Seaside and Stampin' Up!

Button is Basic Grey,

sentiment is Warm Words - Stampin' Up!

Quick Post of a Quick Card!

I was over in Buffalo, NY this holiday weekend

and picked up the Nifty Fifties Cartridge for $29 at Joann.

What a deal!!!!

My friend at work is celebrating her 30th today,

so I had to make up a card quick.

She loves hamburgers, so when I saw this one on the cartridge

I immediately thought it would be perfect.

Added some Stickles to the candle and sesame seeds

and it was done. Quick and easy!

Hey Glamour Girl!

I'm really lovin' these stamps by Kraftin Kimmie.

This Glamor Girl is Annette.

I made this card with my niece in mind.

Cuz she is a glamor girl,

but her birthday isn't 'til later in the year.

The paper is the new Hello Luscious collection from Basic Grey.

And I used my Cricut to cut out the

frame from the Forever Young cartridge.

One more post before I head out to see my

Mom for Mother's Day...

My friend Laurie gave me this adorable stamp set from

My Favorite Things - Joy Ride.

It has cute sentiments and the most adorable little dog.

I'll be making cards with this set for a long time.

So... I tried my hand again at Copic colouring on this stamp,

and I think it worked out pretty well.

Leave me a comment and let me know what you think,

please????

The paper is from Cosmo Criket's mini deck 'Togetherness'.

I coloured the flower with the same colour marker

as her jacket and stamped it with the

Friends Definition stamp from Hero Arts.

The button is made with this

Martha Stewart Button punch

I picked up at Michael's.

Happy Mother's Day
