On a roll........

I have been on a baby card making spree. You can never have to many baby cards at hand. This card is made using an old PSX stamp and one of my favourites as it is so versatile. I have stamped onto parchment with Versamark and used a detail gold embossing powder. After dry embossing on the back of the parchment I used my pencils and and felt tips to add a touch of colour. I then went ahead and embossed and perforated to make a border around the image. I mounted the parchment onto some pastel rainbow paper and used an aperture card to finish it off. The sentiment is one I got as a freebie. I also added some dazzles to complete the card.

I would like to enter this card in the CAS challenge #33

Bright enough for Spring (wishful thinking)

A Spring coloured card for today. The image is a Connie Fong stamp from SweetPea stamps. I have made an easel card with some flowers,doilies, glitter die cuts and ribbon. As usual I have used my ProMarkers to colour with.

Black and White

Time has gotten away from me again,I got very caught up in playing with a new fold (for me anyway). Before I post my card I just want to say welcome to my new followers and thanks for all the lovely comments that have been left on my posts.
 Will post something when I am happy with the final result in the meantime here is a quick CAS card using a die cut and some ribbon.

Stamping on Vellum

Today I am posting a card I made from http://creativeexpressionsdesigns.wordpress.com.
 I subscribe to their workshops and this card was just calling out to me. I love parchment work and while this is not the traditional parchment technique I think it still gives off that special look. I have used some very old rubber stamps on the border and a Joanna Sheen stamp from her Evening and Bridal Dress collection.
The backing paper is from The Heirloom Stack (DCWV). The die cuts are Spellbinders Radiant Rectangles. The sentiment is from the Crafter's Companion Frou Frou collection.

Senior Citizen ......no way

It seems most of my friends are or about to be classified as a Senior Citizen, nooooo, I am not ready yet lol. Oh well time to make a batch of cards specially for this age group. This card is for a friend who is away in South Africa celebrating his 60th. birthday so he will only get it when he gets back to the USA. I have quite a few wild life and animal stamps so thought this would be appropriate. I have stamped my lion with a sepia ink pad onto some shimmery ivory paper and layered onto chocolate brown card. I managed to find some animal print handmade paper in my stash and added that for some texture. I kept it clean and simple.

Short and sweet post for today

I have just finished this card and thought it would be an appropriate one for a Valentine/ Love theme. The image is of course from Kenny K and I have used a non traditional colour, an old heart punch and dusted off my  Polychromas pencils to do the colouring.
