2016!
One more card to show you today!

This is a stamp from PSX. It is the Anemone. I stamped this a long time ago. So since it was 'sitting' in front of me, and the yellow colors were in there, I just kept coloring! I used a combination of distress and memento for the blue shading. And the background die is the Regalia from Spellbinders.

Have a great day!

Happy New Years!
 2016, I just wanted to get used to typing or writing it!
Really quick look at a couple cards I did this week. I love my copics!




Bought a tiny $1.00 stamp at Tuesday Morning. I repeated the pattern randomly, colored with copics and splattered with a watercolor brush. These would make easy 'thank you' cards. One of the verses is an old stamp. The 'So Very Blessed' is by Tuesday morning.

Thanks for looking,
Mary



 



From our home to yours... Wishing you a Merry Christmas!

More cards for the nursing home. We are going to pass them out on the 16th, so just a few more days to add to the total. The die is  'horizontal stitched cover up' from My Favorite things. What a versatile die! As you can see, I used the die with both the larger or smaller window at the top. I don't think it matters. The top card is a shaker card with sequins at the bottom and stars at the top!

 

This one is patterned paper and a Penny Black Peony stamp that I colored with copics and fussy cut. Those are hearts in the lower part of the card.  
Thanks for looking!

First of all since it is December 7th, let me just take a moment to say 'Thank You' to all of our Armed forces. Thanks to the coast guard and law enforcement, all of you who work everyday trying to keep the American people safe.
 I won't ruin this 'thank you" with what I am really thinking. Oh, there I let it out of my mouth.... I am sorry that you have to work with a corrupt administration. All we can do is pray. And oh, here I go again... Some people won't let us do that!

Let's play with some pink! Just a nice change. These are cards for the churches. I liked some of the ideas and re-made them. I will put up the original source. Hope it feels like spring!

Silver Bells border from Crafters Companion

Here are more cards. I used the Crafters Companion border dies. They are listed Die Sire. The one right above shows two versions of the Bethlehem die. Couldn't help making that shaker card!
