Coloring Challeng Day 2

I heat embossed the poppies and then colored with

Spectrum Noir Markers.  The little orange dots 

are from Stampin Up.  The poppy stamp is made

by Technique Tuesday and I bought it at JoAnn Fabrics.

Coloring Challenge Day One

I joined a daily coloring challenge for the month of February.

Here is my project for today.

I  heat embossed the flowers in black and then colored

them with Spectrum Noir Markers.

Next Level Embossing Folders

We are Memory Keepers Next Level embossing folders.

I purchased them at Amazon.com

I got some new deep embossing folders so of course I wanted to try them out.

I made these two masculine cards this morning.

The blue card is for a teenage boy and the brown card is for an older gentleman.

I was happy with the way they turned out.

Enjoy!!!

Scrappy Background and Flower

In a Facebook group I am in, the weekend challenge

was make a card using scraps.

I adhered the scraps to cardstock and

then ran it through the Big Shot

to give it some texture.

I colored the flower with Spectrum Noir markers.

I heat embossed the sentiment.

I thought it was kind of busy, but when I looked at

it over and over, it did not seem so!

Napkin cards for gifts

I made this set of napkin cards to give as a thank you

gift for a friend.

I like them so well I decided to make some more

sets to give as Christmas gifts.

Just Saying Hello

I learned this technique years ago and was playing around

with it again today.  I used glossy paper and heat embossed the ferns

in clear.  I then colored over them with distress ink.  I wiped off the

ferns of any ink and residue with a paper towel.  I added a bow and

a sentiment and all done!

The sentiment and ferns are all from Hero Arts.

Double Stamping

My friend Jan let me borrow some of her stamps to play with.

This set was a double time stamp set.

I stamped the flowers in yellow and then stamped them again in black.

It was a fun card to make although I could not

use my MISTI as these stamps were wood mounted.

Thanks Jan for letting me borrow them,

I had fun making this card!
