Inside Sentiment: Celebrate today.
I wanted to include numbers and a nice sentiment. I also included a chevron trim, gold star and a tie image. The panel looks like a torn out piece of tablet paper. I used saffron ink to fill the tablet paper and swirled the ink pad for a brush effect. The blue ink for the tie looks green with the gold background.
Tools used include: Unity Stamp Company April 2014 KOTM {you make my heart puffy} and December 2013 SMAK {you are loved}.
Have a terrific weekend. :)

Let's Hang Out Adirondack Chairs
These chairs remind me of summer days outside in the sunshine with ice cold cocktails.
Front sentiment: Let's hang out.
Inside sentiment: I miss seeing you.
I think the Adirondack chair set is my favorite image to work with yet. I used watercolor paint and embossed the image in gold. This was intended to be a CAS scene. Sure hope I pulled it off. I love the gold shine of the embossing and the glitter accents on the floral paper.
My inspiration for this card came from:
Unity {be inspired} All About You color challenge 15 and FWF.
Freshly Made Sketches FMS132
I was also inspired by the painting techniques of Sanketi The Storyteller.
Tools used include: Unity Stamp Co stamps from March 2014 KOTM {the reason someone smiles}, Canson watercolor paper, water brushes, Koi watercolor paint, K and Company paper, copper embossing powder, heat gun and flower.
I look forward to reading your comments. They make my day. :)

Ma Mama Mom... What? & Giveaway
Here is a funny conversation card for all of the Mom's out there. I think this is perfect for Mother's Day, Birthday or Valentine's Day. I chose the colors of lime green, purple and blue with added hearts for the trim.
Inside sentiment: I love you.
I used speech bubbles for the words. Some were typed and printed and the "hi" was stamped. I hope this brings a chuckle and memories of the toddler stage. I miss the days when my kids said cute things like this over and over again.
This is included with the Unity {be inspired} sketch challenge15 April May 2014 and FWF.
Tools used include: Unity Stamp Company Handmade Valentines and Hi with a Heart {bitty itty bitty}. Also, K & Company paper, Spellbinders & My Creative Time dies and Ranger ink.
Happy Spring!!!

Funny CAS Birthday Card
This is another one of the masculine cards made for a recent birthday celebration. This card doubled as a favor wrap with a gag gift tucked inside.
Front sentiment: DAMN... you're old!!
This was done in CAS style because any frills would not work for the recipient. This is included with Unity's FWF projects today.
Tools used include: Cardstock, white craft ink, cording, Unity Stamp Co stamps from the Itty Bitty set Damn you're old!!
Have a wonderful weekend.
