Time for Papercrafting.



Hello All,

A little holiday magic.

Fall Leaves

Today, I have a card I created using the Just for Fun rubber stamp:  stamptangle elm leaf.   I stamped a pile of leaves using a green stamp pad.  Next I decided to highlight them with metallic water colors, then I used markers, pencils and gems to complete the leaves.  I made a couple of paper flowers and sewed the edges.  Have a beautiful day!! Thanks for dropping by!

Lets Talk


Hello there!!!
How are you all today?  I created this CAS card. 
 Don't you love this new Just for Fun Stamptangle House Wren bird stamp? 
 One of my new favorites.   I thought the sentiment Lets Talk was appropriate
 because he just looks like he is ready to say something.  
I used the distressed inks on the edges. 
 I used colored pencils and markers on the wings and beak.  

Find that special someone, give them a call and talk (maybe about rubber stamping-L.O.L.)
Have a great day!

Kim

Stampfest...

Hello!!! 
 I have for you today a St Patricks Day Card.  Not your typical one but one using a large green sparkly heart. Using green sparkle embossing powder, I embossed this large heart from the Romantic Sheet from Just for Fun Rubber Stamps. Then I added tiny gems to the center of the designs in center, a simple paper bow and computer generated sentiment.


KISS ME ---I'm Irish!



I hope you have a great day!!!  Thanks so much for stopping by!
