YOUR KINDNESS WARMS MY HEART

I am obsessed with the Suburbia cartridge.  I love the retro silhouettes. I love this image of a coffee drinking mysterious lady in hat.  I got my inspiration from the current Mojo Monday challenge and a new paper pad at Hobby Lobby.

I hand cut the tag, then a Hobby Lobby Tassel Charm around it with Basic Twine By DL.ART.

Stressful week

This has been a difficult week.  On Sunday my daughter had a few friends over.  One of them thought it would be fun to pick me up. He tripped and dropped me on the cement, then landed on top of me.  I had to get xrays.  Luckily nothing is broken just some torn muscles and lots of bruises.  I hope to be back to commenting soon.

DL.ART THANKFUL THURSDAY CHALLENGE-ANYTHING GOES

Good Morning and Welcome to DL.ART Thankful Thursday Challenge Anything Goes.  Have you seen all of the beautiful items in the DL.ART shop.  Now there are button collections along with the beautiful ribbons that Diana sells.  Diana gives my readers a 10% discount just use the code K34510 at check out.  For this project I used Quartz from the Galaxy Bundle.
I began this card by water coloring this hilarious "Dare to be Fabulous" Art Impressions stamp with Marvy Markers and a water brush.  I then cut the image with a MCT Stitched Oval Die.  I used some Paper Studio papers that perfectly match the fancy ladies dresses.  I tied a double bow using the Quartz ribbon.

TRANQUIL SYMPATHY CARD

A young man who I used to babysit passed away last weekend.  I made this card to send to his parents.  I began by making the base using my explore and Anna Griffin Garden Cards and Embellishments.  Then I cut the bird motif using Annas Elegant Embellishments. The brown part of the bird were on my desk from a different bird I was cutting.  The solid papers are DCWV.  The gold cardstock is Paper Source.  The flowers are Paper Studio.

FCCB

The inside sentiment is an Anna Griffin Stamp.  I am entering this into the FCCB Anything Goes Challenge.

EMILY IS 26

I made this card for my daughter's 26th birthday.  I followed a great Art Impressions video that transformed a stamp that is a cat on a bench to a flower pot on a bench.  The flower pot was sketched in place of the cat. The background card, sentiment and butterfly are Anna Griffin.  The embellishment is by Paper Studio.  The beautiful bright white ribbon is "Whipped Cream" part of the Creamy dreamy Bundle by DL.ART

Mail Box and Birdhouse Cards

Diana at DL.ART has a new tie died ribbon Strawberry Grape she also has two button collections.  I used a pretty button from the Vintage Button Collection. I began this card by choosing a set of Baroque Frame dies by Anna Griffin.  The center die was pretty small.  I then found and Art Impressions mailbox die that fit in the center medallion.  I watercolored the image using Marvy Markers.  The second layer was cut with an Anna Griffin matt.  Lastly I embossed a piece of Purple Colorbok paper.

For the second card I also used an Anna Griffin Baroque frame, to show case another Art Impression stamp.   The floral paper is and the embossing folder are also Anna Griffin.  I used the beautiful Lavender ribbon in the Spring Bundle #1 by DL.ART
