Encouragement Card

I made this card for future use when I need an encouragement card. Both stamps are from Unity Stamp Company Eloise Girl set and I used Versafine Onyx Black Pigment Ink to stamp them on typing paper. I used Spectrum Noir Essentials Professional Colored Pencils to color in Eloise and the flowers. The card base is Recollecions A2. The washi tape is from Oriental Trading. The paper is from Colorbok Glam Girl 12 x 12 Designer Paper Pad that I bought from WalMart. That's it for today. TFL!

Princess Birthday

I made this card for the little girl, Telah,  I used to nanny for. She just turned 1 this past Sunday, so it was late, but better late than never! The card base is Recollections A2. The patterned paper is a piece from K&Company Que Sera Sera. The stamped images- inside and out- are from Close To My Heart Birthday Princess. I used Spectrum Noir Essentials Professional Colored Pencils to color in the princess and Versafine Black Onyx Pigment Ink to stamp both images. I included a $10 gift card from TJ Maxx since I know her mom loves to shop there and since I work there I know we have a lot of baby/toddler goodies! Oh, I almost forgot the bling- it's Studio G Self-Adhesive Gems. TFL and have a great weekend!

Happy Happy Birthday

I made this card for a friend who's birthday was this past Saturday. The card base is Recollections A2 cards. The patterned paper is a part of Bo Bunny 12" Serenity Dot. I tried to make the card look masculine so I didn't put much on the card and the paper is busy enough. I decided to use Stampabilities Happy Happy Happy Birthday stamp and Unity Absolutely Priceless Simple Stories Itty Bitty- hot air balloon stamp on a piece of American Crafts Seuss double sided 12"paper and used Versafine Onyx Black pigment ink on both stamps. His favorite football team is Carolina Panthers so the colors of the hot air balloon fit those colors. He also loves to see the hot air balloons that come over his house around this time of the year. His family doesn't do anything for his birthday and he does so much for them. I make it a point to make him a card every year. I was just a little behind this year. TFL!
