This was a sample card I made for my son, It did not turn out to be the final design. I will share that later. The stamp is from Penny Black "Flourish Holly" and the Poinsettia is from Spellbinders. I removed the stamp from the wood block as it is stamped twice on the card. The card is top is cut 1/4 inch smaller than the base which is a white glitter from American Crafts. The Ink is from Memento, a red pearl pen and Kaiser gems. The sentiment I think is Penny Black too.

Tis the Season
In September our LSS had a very large workshop that I help with. I needed to make some samples using a stamp that was being used at one of my tables so I may a little foggy on what I used. The Stamp is a Memory Box that was stamped with Versafine Black and clear embossed. This was then cut with a Spellbinder circle and distressed with two colors (Mustard Seed being the yellow I want to say Bundled Sage for the second color). I added a clear stickles to the stamped image. Using a Spellbinder tag for the sentiment I tried to give the illusion it was a globe. The DP I believe is from Bazzill's Christmas line. The sentiment is from my stash so not remembering it. This is an A2 card Hope you enjoy.

Elegant Pine
This card was made using the Hero Arts Stencil "Elegant Pine" and Golden Gel Mediums "Light Molding Paste". I placed some of the medium into a small cup and added Distress Ink Peeled Paint reinker to the paste. After this was mixed I taped the stencil onto my paper and spread the medium. It is like spreading butter smooth, remove the excess and pull off the stencil. I then added Distress dry glitter "clear rock candy" and let it dry. Little Yellow Bicycle was used for the framing and was cut using a Grand Oval from Spellbinders. The card was then mounted on red by Bazzill. A Sentiment from DRS designs was stamped in black and cut with a Spellbinder label and mounted. Two large pearls finish off the card. This card is very large being almost 6 x 8. Hope you enjoy.

haunted halloween
At Halloween I like to make a few treat bags for granddaughters, friends, para's and other special people in my life. This year I took a plain white treat sack and stamped the house, sentiment and witch from the Penny Black set "haunted halloween". The house is colored with Copic N3 and a yellow in the windows. The ink used was Versafine black (no not a copic ink). When I colored it some of the ink smeared to help give the house a more rustic look which is hard to see in this picture. Two holes were punched so the ribbon closes the bag with treats inside. Hope you enjoy

Another Holiday card
This cute guy is from the same Woodware set that I used in a post a couple of weeks ago and was another card for the Christmas class. The sentiment is from the same set. Copic markers were used for the coloring. Kraft paper is the base of the card with Bazzill as the border around the white. A swiss dot embossing folder was used to give texture to the white, but in order to stamp the image a Tim Holtz oval diffuser was used. The diffuser helps leave an area untouched by the folder leaving the smooth area to stamp. A simple card that may be more masculine. Hope you enjoy

Embrace Happiness
I am taking an Online card class "His and Hers" and this card was made using the inspiration by Jennifer McGuire.

Secret Garden
JustRite is hosting a Friday Challenge #095 Window of Opportunity. This card is my take on that challenge. (edit: This was the Grand Prize card for this challenge)
1. Stamp Royal Fiber Birch with the JustRite "Secret Garden" background stamp using Memento Ink "Tangelo". This is a 4 x 5.25 piece of card stock.
2. Cut a circle out using Spellbinder circles and mount on another piece of Royal Fiber Birch cut to the same size and mount on card base of Desert Storm (cut as an A2 card). Cut a smaller circle out leaving an opening to the inside of the card.
3. Using Stickles Star Dust paint the stamped flowers with the glitter. This is hard to see in the picture. If you double click on the card you will be able to see the glittered flowers.
4. Using a sentiment from the JustRite set "Circle of Love" stamp inside the circle so the sentiment is on the inside of the card.
5. Mask the sentiment and again using the Tangelo stamp the background stamp again on the inside of the card.
6. Spray white flowers with Imagine Crafts Fireworks "Tangelo" spray. The flowers used here are from my stash. Using glossy accents a brown twine was added to the card and the flowers then added. One larger and two medium flowers were sprayed. Yello Kaiser mini paper blooms were added to finish off the card.

1. Stamp Royal Fiber Birch with the JustRite "Secret Garden" background stamp using Memento Ink "Tangelo". This is a 4 x 5.25 piece of card stock.
2. Cut a circle out using Spellbinder circles and mount on another piece of Royal Fiber Birch cut to the same size and mount on card base of Desert Storm (cut as an A2 card). Cut a smaller circle out leaving an opening to the inside of the card.
3. Using Stickles Star Dust paint the stamped flowers with the glitter. This is hard to see in the picture. If you double click on the card you will be able to see the glittered flowers.
4. Using a sentiment from the JustRite set "Circle of Love" stamp inside the circle so the sentiment is on the inside of the card.
5. Mask the sentiment and again using the Tangelo stamp the background stamp again on the inside of the card.
6. Spray white flowers with Imagine Crafts Fireworks "Tangelo" spray. The flowers used here are from my stash. Using glossy accents a brown twine was added to the card and the flowers then added. One larger and two medium flowers were sprayed. Yello Kaiser mini paper blooms were added to finish off the card.
Hope you enjoy
