Graduation Time

This is a graduation card I made this weekend. I don't do a lot of masking and I rarely combine stamps from different companies, but I did it this time. I thought my owl would make a darling graduation card and then remembered that I had an old graduation set from TAC that might fit his head. I thought it might be a little different if he was standing/sitting on a rolled up diploma too, so that's what he's doing. I colored with Prismacolor Pencils and blended them with odorless mineral spirits and a blending stump. Thanks for looking.

Camping Season

This is one of the cards I did for the ladies in my hostess club this month. I used one of TAC's Limited Edition stamp sets (ending May 16th) and TAC's Just Like Dad paper pack. Colored the images with Prismacolor pencils and odorless mineral spirits. I used the card layout from the June issue of SheetLoad of Cards .






Thanks for looking,

Another Sheetload card

Here is one of the cards that I made using the February issue of Sheetload of Cards. I really like these when I need to come up with a card idea and need way more than one to be done quickly.

Shout out to SheetLoad

I have recently come across the SheetLoad of Cards blog and I love it!! Here is a preview of their May issue. The ezine gives you great samples and detailed instructions and cutting guides for the greatest number of cards to make from each sketch (also given).



Here is one of the cards I did using this months issue. I plan on finding the back issues and trying those also. It is an excellent way to get some cards done quickly. The colors in my card are subtle and watercolory?? but they really got washed out in the picture. I tried scanning and using my camera and it didn't come out right, but you get the point, right?

My New Robots


I just got this new stamp called "The Boys" from Eat Cake Graphics. I used Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol to color them. They are such cute robots. Thanks for looking.
