Now I would like to share some more card ideas using the Tim Holtz Wildflowers #1 

For this card I could have definitely edited better! I colored the flower die-cut with copics. Used a Vintage 'Sign' die for the backtground.

 

This time I used the oxide sprays, yes, and copics to color. Added an ephemera piece from Graphic 45 Flutter collection to this card and the first one shown.

 Added twine and eyelets for a change!

Maybe it is Friday??? It is early Am here and still dark. Good morning to everyone and especially to the early risers! Today I want to share cards that I made with Tim Holtz Funky flowers Large. Love this set! These two cards, made with the same dies take on a completely different look. The 'doily' looks feminine and the plaid could be more masculine.

 

I couldn't decide if this one should go vertical or horizontal!

 

 

 

I used my oxide sprays on the background here.

Added some stenciled paste and script to this one. And of course, the pink one above this is a shaker card! Next ones will be the Tim Holtz Wildflowers #1. My next favorite!

 Thanks for looking!

Monday March18th

This is Monday March 18th and todays weather update is about 75 degrees! Wow. Lovely day. Officially Lucy is 5 months old. She is rid of her cone, and has lost most of her puppy teeth. So cute, she really does smile and show her teeth! I doubt if I ever get that on camera as it happens really fast!
So today I will show you a few more of the Tim Holtz 'wildflower' die cards. Hope that makes sense!

Monday Monday...

Almost there! That is 'almost' done with the cone, maybe the itching, and just maybe, we will be a crazy puppy again! She wants to run and play so bad!  

Lucy Lou and her Dad. We've been taking a sequence of Al and Lucy on the couch since January. She was 3 months, now 5 months, we will see how she grows!

Saturday March 9th

Happy Saturday! This is going to be a really quick post today. My computer keeps going black and shutting down. I keep letting it 'cool off' and turning it back on. Maybe I am pushing my luck! Here are a couple, yes two, cards I wanted to share. It got the inspiration from the Tim Holtz website. It has been a long time since I did anything mixed media, and I really had fun doing them. The big difference is that I used the Older Wildflower flowers.

 

Monday March 4th...

Lets go have a Tim Holtz inspiration week!! I have had fun using the new, and older Tim Holtz stamps. I will try to be specific when posting the various 'wildflowers, funky flowers, and the atomic. The first ones are the 'atomic' set. When I looked for ideas, I only could find the one on the Tim Holtz blog. Of course, the set was new, but hopefully you will find some more inspiration in these. I love this set. Just cut a bunch of colors and lay them out on a base, or a base of a couple levels!! Easy. Added some Tim Holtz die cut words and the quite chips.

 

 

More photographing to do....

Thanks for looking,

Sunday March morning!

Good Morning! Hopefully, if we get our usual sunshine, I can photograph some more cards from last weeks crafting.  I know we made cards with these 'layered butterflies & hugs' from Spellbinders. Its been about 6 months, but I love it when I actually use something more than one time! Such happy colors!

                                            The last two cards are from an ephemera pack and yes, I have used them before too. I gave the rest of them to Dawn! Have to say they are just paper and cutouts.

                                            Have a great Sunday 
                                            Thanks for looking!
