Otterly Happy Birthday

Another cute card created with a cute set.  This is another by MFT Stamps, Otterly Love You.  For the background, which is the card base, I lightly drew a circle with a pencil on the card base.  (The pencil marks show where the circle will be on the top layer of the card.)  I then sponged distress inks a little beyond the pencil marks to look like sand and water.  As usual, I heat embossed the images, colored them with alcohol markers and cut them with the Scan N Cut.  After erasing the pencil marks and stamping the sentiment, I adhered the top layer using dimensionals.  A few pretty sequins complete the card.  Have a great weekend and find yourself a little stampin' time!

Fluffy Flamingos

From what we hear, Sydney is enjoying camp~~ even with the rain  She loves being with the animals, has made new friends and has met up with friends from previous years.  It has hard to believe that she has been going to this camp since she was 9 years old.  Looking back at photos, she was so young back then.  

Today's card is another I made for her.  And, it is another tropical stamp set I have in my collection.  This is the Fluffy Flamingos set by Clearly Besotted.  The little birds were colored with alcohol markers and cut on the Scan N Cut.  The sentiment is from the  MFT Stamps Tickled Pink stamp set.  Another fun card for Sydney Elizabeth!  Have a great day and keep dry!!!!

Tropical Celebration

I saw a very cute tropical stamp set on WPlus9 Stamps.  The set included two cute flamingos.  I added it to my cart but then decided before I purchase another tropical set, I was going to see what I already owned.  I came across a few sets and the tropical sets I have, made it very unnecessary to add to my collection!  So my cart was emptied!

I then went on to create today's card using a couple of those stamp sets.  This card was created using Sunny Studio Stamps' Tropical Paradise and Fresh and Fruity stamp sets.   I stamped and heat embossed the images and used alcohol markers to color them.  And, since I purchased these sets prior to the Scan N Cut, I had coordinating dies to cut everything out.  The sentiment is from Penny Black's Heartfelt stamp set.  Have a great day!

Science Camp Time

Syd is off to camp this week.  Between Jen, Grandmum and me, Sydney gets a lot of mail.  Since they have mail call every day, we each do a few days.  That way she only gets one  piece of mail each day or maybe two pieces of mail occasionally. 

Today's card I made using one of her favorite stamp sets, Unforgettable by WPlus9 Stamps.  It is just a playful card to bring a smile to her face.  I printed the sentiment on the computer, spacing it so that images would fit.  I sure hope it has cooled off for the campers who are down in Rolla, Missouri.  It was hot and humid up here and Jen said it was awful down there over the weekend.  Good for us though, it has cooled off!  Have a great day!
