Hello My Friend

Today's card is so cute!  The image is a digital stamp from Whimsy Stamps, Puppy's New Friend.  The thing about digital stamps is that you can make them the size you prefer.  After pulling up the image in Word, I then placed it where I would want it on a card front.  I typed the sentiment and chose the font I wanted to use.  After printing the Word document, I colored it in with Copic markers and then added butterflies and sequins to fill in the white space.  I still needed a little something, so I punched the corner with a Stampin' Up retired corner punch.  The little bird perfectly matched SU's Poppy Parade cardstock.  I just love this card!  Have a great week!

Here's To You

 My Favorite Things came out with some new stamp sets and dies recently.  I have many cutesy stamps and pretty stamps, but I was in need of some male-type sets.  So their new release had a few items that would make great cards without any flowers or cutesy animals.  My purchase included two die sets and a sentiment set that was related to the dies.  Once I had the items in my hands, I made today's cards.  The Pint Sized and Frosty Beer Mug Die-namics sets needed a little ink and before I knew it, I had two  cards!  The sentiments are from MFT's Here's To You stamp set.  Have a great week!

Easter is a few days away and today I am posting a photo of two cards I created using a digital stamp from Whimsy Stamps.  The Basket of Bunnies digital stamp is the reason for such cute cards.  When using digital stamps, you can make them the size you want.    The blue and green basket of bunnies was printed  on Spectrum Noir white cardstock and then colored.  The darker blue basket of bunnies was printed on the same white cardstock, is a bit bigger than the other, was colored and then cut out on my Scan n Cut.  Both cards images were colored using Copic markers.  The sentiment on the light blue card was one I typed in Word, print and then cut out.  The curved "hoppy Easter" is from LDRS Creative's Hoppy Egg Hunt stamp set.  Both are two cute!  Have a great week!

 I finished all of my Easter cards, but can't post a picture until they are received.  So., I am posting a Mother's Day card that I recently made.  I know that the recipient is not on a computer, so she will not see this.  I purchased the new Lawn Fawn Magic Iris Floral Wreath Add-on dies.  This set is actually to be used with their Magic Iris line of interactive dies.  I am not that into interactive dies, but I really liked the wreath.  I cut the wreath using SU's old Green Galore cardstock.  For the flowers, I used a variety of cardstock colors.  The center of the wreath was stamped using Lawn Fawn's Magic Spring stamp set and colored with Copic Markers.  The background paper is also from Lawn Fawn.  To complete the card, I punched the two corners with my SU Scallop Corner Punch.

Have a great week!
