Copy Cat!

This card is one I had to try after seeing janacb's on SCS. I followed her directions, as follows: The stamp was inked in versamark, then I took a marker and coloured the trunks and the "ground" black before I stamped it on the glosssy card stock. Then I embossed with holographic ep. The background was done after the stamping, using a cosmetic wedge. Pink, gray and navy inks were used.

Some of my latest cards

It has been a while since I posted some cards here. Christmas is over and I have started making cards to add to "my stash" and trying some new stamps.

This card uses the StampinUp Apple Cider paper and the true Friend set. I think I will get a lot of use out of both!

I have been playing with some valentine pocket cards and this is one of them. I found the template on Splitcoast Stampers. I have another one made but it is for a mingle and and I don't want to spoil the surprise. I'll post it after she receives the card

Beaded Cards

My stamping friend Shirley sent me some patterns for beaded cards and I created these for a swap. I am glad it was only a 5 card swap, my hands were quite cramped by the end!

Acetate Cards

I have been trying my hand at these lately, and have tried every colour of Stazon ink that I have. I have decided I like the Black best!

(This one is white ink but scanned so you can't see that it is transparent)

Happy Halloween

I have made a few Halloween cards to send off to family and friends, but still haven't made them for my class yet!

It is so gorgeous here in Nova Scotia this fall, I am in awe!

It Feels Like Fall!

I used bleach (well actually automatic dishwasher liquid) to make this card. Then overstamped the trees with brown ink.

Waiting for the fireworks

I took this picture from the back of the "yet-to-be-named sailboat", while we were waiting for the Canada Fire Works to start. The river looks so peaceful, you'd never know there were 2 dozen power boats zooming around.
