Otterly Great Birthday

Hello Everyone! I am playing along at the Landscaping Challenge.  It is a water color challenge. Here is the card I came up with using the Year Five Otter stamp and die.  


The card panel was painted with watercolors and cut with the Large Stitched Rectangle die.  The otter was colored with copic markers. Such a sweet image.. I love to see the otters on the California coast. :)

Thanks for checking out my card today. Have a wonderful day!

Yellow Roses

Hello everyone! Today I get to post over at the Stamp AnnieThing Blog. Here is the card I made. I colored "Jessica - For You" with Copic Markers. Since yellow is my favorite color.. I colored up her roses in yellow. The sentiment is included with the stamp set and I stamped that on a die from Jaded Blossom, Charm Dies.  The pattern paper is from Dear Lizzy's Serendipity collection. :)


Thanks for stopping by today! 


Owls love Coversation Hearts

Hello! Today is my post over at Jaded Blossom. I love the newly released You're a Hoot stamp set and wanted to create another project. The owl is from Cricut, Create a Critter. I embossed her heart shaped wings with the Swiss Dot Cuttlebug Folder. Jaded Blossom's Stitched Square die was placed behind the owl. The treat bag is Jaded Blossom's Goody Bag Die. I added a handle with the stitched oval die. You can also see the candy inside :)


Here is a closer look at the Stitched Oval cut in the Goody Bag. The tag is a die from the Card Mat Die set.


Jaded Blossom
You're A Hoot - sentiment
Stitched Square Dies - panel behind owl
Card Mat Dies - tag for sentiment (added a hole punch to attach)

pattern paper is from Doodlebug Designs. 

Have a wonderful day!

PArty Time!

Hello! Today I am posting over at Stamp AnnieThing and I thought I would share my card here too. This is Kelly from the January release. She is colored with Copic Markers and I picked a birthday sentiment to go along with her. I was auditioning several options to tie the balloon to her wrist and decided just to grab a journaling marker and draw a string for her to hold. Whew! So glad it worked out :)
