Three Winners from Marge

Here are this month's creations from Marge's workshop. I really like them all but will admit to wandering the new AC Moore's on Friday looking for a big flower stamp. My wallet was happy I didn't find one.


I'm in LOVE!!

I'm in LOVE!! Okay, maybe just serious like but my new Copic air brush system is wonderful! I used my new Penny Black stamps, the air brush, and my Copics to create this spiffy little card. About the only complaint I have is that I smudge the "smile" a bit. Such is life. I still have to mount it onto cardstock but that's about it. Paper is from my scrap drawer.

****Special thanks to Donna H. for the generous gift certificate from Allegheny Art. I added a but to it and bought the Copic Air Brush system that will use my husband's air compressor or canned air.****

A Pink Departure

I am definitely not Elle Woods from Legally Blonde...pink is NOT my signature color but for this card using a set of stamps from Denami I not only went pink but added flowers and rhinestones to boot. I haven't added a sentiment yet but will wait until I have an occasion other than wanting to play with my new stamps.

Skylar

My sister had an eight year old Boston Terrier she lost to cancer this winter. I saw this stamp out in California while visiting my mom and couldn't resist it as it is the spitting image of Skylar. I made a few cards to send to my sister and will include the stamp, too. Here are the cards...

Shout Out to SheetLoad!

I have a hard time finding enough time to make all the cards I would like to, especially around the fall and winter holidays but this year, I may be onto something wonderful! While browsing around on one of my SBS2's blogs, I read about SheetLoads of Cards (Thanks Flossie!). Being the curious sole that I am, and a huge Bella fan, I clicked on the link Flossie included.

If you haven't checked out SheetLoads of Cards, I highly recommend it! This month there is a chance for some wonderful blog candy simply for giving SheetLoads of Cards a "Shout Out". May's issue looks to be "Bella-rific!" I downloaded a few of the past issues and can't wait to play!
