50th Birthday

Happy Monday! How is everyone doing today? Hope your enjoying your day! My sister Renee turned the big "50" in February. I made this card using one of my favorite stamps from Art Impression-Celeste. 

I stamp her twice, once on pattern paper
for the couch and once on white paper
to color her in. 

I free hand cut out both stamps images 
and layered them on the card. 

I just love this stamp set. 

Have a Blessed day!

Art Impressions (Ai)

Happy Monday! Here we are in February already.  I pulled out my Art Impressions stamps this weekend and picked out Celestes for today's card. I sent these card to one of my TOPS friends who is kind of struggle with her weight right now. I thought it would give her a lift.  

 The saying is from Rubbernecker. 

Stamping on pattern paper, I cut out the
couch and attached it to the background paper.
I stamped a second time on white CS,colored
Celeste with markers and attached her to the couch.

Thanks for stopping by and spending sometime with me today.

Glasses

Happy Sunday!  In March I went to the Stamp convention here in Albuquerque.  I was standing in line to pay for my purchases, as I got closer to the cash register I saw this stamp set and it kept screaming "buy me, buy me" so of course I did. (laughing) 

The stamp set is Art Impressions-Celeste.
The green pattern paper has glitter. I used 
an embossing folder to make the wood floors. 

I stamped the image twice, once on white CS
 and once on the striped paper for the couch.
 Prismacolor markers were used to color the image. 
I cut out both images and layered them on the card.

Have a awesome week! Happy Mother's Day!!

Light the Candles

Happy Thursday.  Today is the last day of March.  This month just flew by. I made this card for my sister's birthday.  It's an Art Impressions stamp and yes I purchased it at the convention.  Can you believe I am actually using the stamps I purchased in the same year of the convention. (laughing) 

I used my Prismacolor markers and some ink
to distress the edges.

My sister got a kick out of this saying. 

Have a great weekend. Don't get fooled tomorrow on April Fools Day!

Sister's Card

Happy Thursday. Today I am sharing another stamp set I purchased at the Stamp Convention here in Albuquerque.  Arts Impressions and Rubbernecker carry the cutest cartoon characters to stamp with. I thought of my sisters when I saw this stamp and made them each a card.  

The stamp set is by Art Impressions. 

Each card is just a bit different just like each of
my sisters. My sisters are a blessing to me!

I am really out of touch with my color markers
and pencils.  It has been awhile since I colored
and I am rusty but it sure was fun.

Hope you all have a Blessed Easter!

Chickens

Happy Monday. How is everyone today? It was officially the first day of Spring yesterday. Yuppie! How many of you went to the Stamp Convention here in Albuquerque last weekend? I went with my neighbor Heather and we had a great time.  I didn't go crazy this year and buy everything. Hee hee. Like I need anything....  My daughter has six chickens so we are blessed with fresh eggs. I saw this chicken at the stamp convention and just had to have it. It's made by Art Impressions.

I used embossing folders and die cuts. 

I just love the attitude of the chicken. She is just
telling you like it is......(laughing)

My husband didn't get this saying. You know the
old joke "Why did the chicken cross the road"?
Do you get it? Okay so maybe it's just me....?

Enjoy the first week of spring.  Watch out for those chickens crossing the road....(laughing)
