Dachshund Through the Snow

 

Hey! I had so much fun making this card during the holiday season.  The sweet image was colored with copics and cut out.  Snow drifts die cuts were used and popped up for dimension than the tops lined with Sakura Stardust pen for shimmer.  Bling added on lights and a pom pom on his Santa hat.  He was tucked into the snow drifts and having a great time!  TFL!

Coffee and You

 

 

Been a long time since I've posted.  I have been taking some time off from making as many cards as I used to but wanted to start up again.  I made this card for a very good friend of mine and had fun making it! I popped up the coffee cups and added black gems for the bears buttons on his sweater and pom pom on his hat.

Thanks for stopping by!

Sunny Smiles

 


It's been a long time since I have posted here on the blog!  I have been on and off with my cardmaking and hope to be more active.  I wanted to share this card today to celebrate summer.  I found this great designer paper at Hobby Lobby of palm trees and used it as a border for my summer scene.  The sand was created by using designer paper as well.  I colored and cut out the image and than added dimension by coloring another section of the image (hula skirt n flower) and popped them up. A tiny pearl added to the center of her hair flower, than used my wave scissors and white gel pen. Two shades of blue for sky and water and circle punch for the sun. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Beachy Christmas for Rick

 

I wanted to make my hubby a special card this year.  He's been through so much and I am so grateful he will be here to share another Christmas with us.  He went through cancer and quad bypass surgery and he's finally feeling better!  He loves the beach and I had a blast making him this card!  I ended up adding teardrop bling on the Christmas lights on the palm tree!  He 
actually gave me that idea after he opened it (he said Im surprised you didnt put bling on the lights on the palm.)

Bits of red bling were added to the wreath on the van too.  Silver sakura pen was applied to Santas glasses n bucket. 

I am so lucky to have such a wonderful hubby!  I love you Rick!

Supplies: MFT Stamps, Pop Dots, Teardrop Bling, Red Bling Dots,Copics, Sakura Stardust Pen

Nice List


 Just finished up my Christmas cards for 2020 and mailed them today.  I was so wanting to add the snow drifts on all of them but due to personal issues I didnt have enough time.  I wanted to post one with the snow drifts (it doesnt show up in the pic but sakura silver pen was added on the caps for shimmer.)  Thanks to my Aunt Lori who gave me this adorable set and die cuts by Birdie Brown and on My Favorite Things store.  Because of Aunt Lori everyone will get this sweet Santa!  I added a pom pom on his hat and sakura pen on his buckle.  Dimensions were used on Santa n the snow drifts and the polka dot paper was a great backdrop for a look like snow is falling.

Supplies: MFT Birdie Brown Stamp n Die Cut Set, Copics, Sakura Stardust Pen, Pop Dots, Recollections papers, Snow Drifts Die Cut and Pom Pom.
