So Happy Together

I just adore this digi stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil because it's so sweet. I colored the image with Prismas and chalks and mounted it to some layered floral paper from My Mind's Eye. The sentiment was stamped with a clear acrylic stamped and mounted with foam tape for dimension. I used paper-punched corner designs for a little extra color instead of the paper flowers I had originally intended on using -- it was definitely overkill.

Any Way You Slice It

I created this latest card using a digi stamp from Karen's Doodles called "What a Swing". I just recently came across this shop and I really like it. Her images are so easy to color! The paper came from my stash but I believe that at least the majority of it is from My Mind's Eye. The acrylic stamp sentiment was part of a golf set had been in my stash for over a year so I was excited I finally had the perfect reason for using it. I added the paper fasteners and pearls to finish off the design and that was pretty much it!

Hooked on Craft Challenges is hosting a challenge on cards for men so I plan to enter it there as well.

Birthday Wishes

I'm feeling very productive lately. I've finished stitching a few pieces that I plan to "finish-finish" tomorrow morning, and I got another card done tonight. For this latest card, I used a fairy digi stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil that came in a four-stamp set. I colored it with my Prismas and then did a little light chalking around the edges. The sentiment was adhered with foam tape for some dimension. I made three paper flowers, 1 large and 2 small, gave them some rhinestone centers and attached them with different levels of foam tape. I had recently purchased a new paper stack that had these great patterns inside - I love working with paper stacks because it takes a lot of the thinking away from me so I don't obsess, which is always a good thing!

Spread Your Wings

Hope everyone is having a great, relaxing Labor Day weekend! I'm enjoying sitting in a sun-filled room crafting to my heart's content. I was able to finish up another card last night using one of my favorite stamps from Mo's Digital Pencil. I just love this fairy - she colors up nicely too which is always a plus! I colored the image with my trusty Prismacolor Pencils and then did some DP layering with some really pretty sage green paper from My Mind's Eye. To bring in a little more color I made some paper flowers using a dark purple and more of the sage green and then added some small light green rhinestones.
