A Couple 3x3 Cards




Here are a couple 3x3 cards I made with the wonderful "Seeds of Blessing" stamp set. The images in this set are wonderful, but the sayings are what I fell in love with first.
The paper I used is from TAC's Mimi collection, Ivory and Kraft cardstock, and the cardstock that matches Mimi.
Other Supplies: Mimi ribbon, scalloped oval punch, paper piercer, scalloped scissors, watercolor pencils, and crystal stickles

Belated Christmas Stuff


Here are a couple of things I made, just for fun, to decorate our Christmas table. The wine glass marker idea came from Julie, she is da bomb. I didn't have a snowflake stamp, so my "snowflakes" are from TAC's "Circle Sampler" set. Theornament is from a retired set that has something for every season, but I can't remember the name.
Cardsotck is Kraft,DCWV Red, and Ivory. The ink is Moulin Rouge and Burnt Umber

Oceans of Love

This card uses TAC's soon to be retired hostess set "Oceans of Love". I used a sketch from Heather's blog, and a color challenge from Paper Wings.
I was using my watercolor crayons to color-I need to work with those some more-I still don't have them down.
The embossed paper was done with my Big Shot and an embossing folder.

Sneak Peek


Isn't this set just too cute?!?! It is a sneak peek from TAC's new Serendipity mini catalogue that will go live at the beginning of February. I can't wait to get this set and my hands. It makes me impatient to create with it.
Want to see a couple of cards made with it? Check out these blogs:
Chelsea's Blog She has lots of other great sneak peeks on her blog. Scroll down and check them out!!
Angela's Blog I love how she changed them to a Valentine's theme.

Watercolor Plants 3


Here is another card I made using watercolor plants. I just love this set.
The colors did not come through true to life, so it is much nicer IRL. I colored with markers, and used generational stamping for the flowers "behind" the three in front (they are hard to see in this pic.
The background was done using my Big Shot and a cuttlebug folder. The lines across the yellow were done with my scor-pal.
Other supplies: Circle and scalloped punches, white gel pen, and ribbon with Bazzill paper

Watercolor Plants 2

This card was a CASE of my friend Chris' card

I changed it up a bit, but the inspiration came from her card. In the first picture I was trying to show you the shimmer I put on these flowers using my new glitter pen...I love it!!! I am able to put glitter in such small spaces.
The stamps used are "Script Background" and "Watercolor Plants" I hadn't even given watercolor plants a second glance in the catty until I started seeing some really cute cards using it. I couldn't even remember it being IN the catty, so I had to go and find it. It is now in my hands, and I believe you will be seeing much more of it in the future...and know what else, the set only costs $8.95!!!

Winter Mouse


Not the best card I have made recently, but it will do. It was done using "Mice Day" and "Snowflake Backgrounder" from TAC. I colored with my usual watercolor pencils.
