Happy 28th Anniversary

Feb6

Hi There,

Sharing a card that I made for my wonderful husband of 28 years a few years back, but never got around to posting. He’s been my best friend always and continues to be even more so as we get older together. Even after 28 years of marriage, we still never run out of things to talk about. I LOVE IT and him too! LOL!

Here is a close-up:

For the inside of the card, I wrote something special for him.

Here is a close-up of the image:

Year of the Pig 2019

Feb6

Hi There,

Happy Chinese New Year! It’s the year of the pig and to celebrate it this year I made all of my friends and a few co-workers a special card! 12 of them in total this year.

For the front of the card I used Polkadoodles Piggy 1 from their Work & Play10 Country Life – Digital Craft Collection. I created the sentiment using WordArt in Microsoft Word.

Here is a close-up of one card.

This is a close-up of the little pig.

 

On the inside I used my MISTI (Most Incredible Stamping Tool) and stamped the sentiments using Versa Fine – Onyx Black and Ranger – Clear Super Fine Detail embossing powder using Craftin Desert Diva’s Dragon Festival Stamps.

Dragon boat is also from the same stamp set. Little pig is from Lawn Fawn LF-1595 – Hay There!

This is a close-up of the dragon boat and little pig.

All images were stamped onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using Memento – Tuxedo Black ink and then coloured in with Copic markers.

They loved them and I hope you do too!

Copic Markers Used:

Pig: R000, R00, R01, R02, RV10, RV11, C1, R17, R20

Happy 80th Birthday – Queen for a Day

Jan30

Sharing a card that I made a few years back for a very sweet lady who turned 80 and doesn’t look a day over 70. I wish I could look as good as her at her age. LOL!

Here is the inside of the card.

To make the card I used Art Impressions Stamps U4251 – Beauty in Progress  for the front of the card and Art Impressions Stamps Popcards – 4859 – Oldie PopCard for the inside. Both images were stamped with Memento – Tuxedo Black ink using my MISTI onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card and then coloured with a mixture of Copic and Spectrum Noir alcohol markers.

Dragon – Pull My Finger Slider Card

Jan19

Hi There!

I made this fun card using the High Hopes Rubber Stamps – S222 – Dragon Finger a while back, but never got around to posting it. LOL! So here it is now.

As soon as I saw this stamp set I knew that I had to have it to make my dad a card with. When we were little, he would always tell us to pull his finger and then he would toot!!!! LOL! He would then laugh at our disgusted looks. But it always brings back fond memories. He’s older now and still hasn’t changed. LOL! I think that’s why we love him so much. Our dad has always had a great sense of humour.

I used the stamps to create a slider card. On the front center panel I used the dragon the first sentiment from the same stamp set.

 

Here is a close-up:

On the right panel, I used the sentiment from the stamp set “Pull My Finger”

On the left panel, is the result of the question and answer from the first 2 panels. Just look at the big grin on his face. Just like my dad’s.

Here is a close-up:

 

Put all 3 panels together and this is what it looks like when you pull it in both directions.

 

My dad loved his card and I hope that you do too!

Happy Retirement

Jan19

Sharing a card that I made for a lady that I worked with. Today was her last day and I wanted to make her a special card. I am so jealous that she gets to retire at such a young age. LOL! I hope she enjoys each and every day of her retirement and wish her all the best of luck in the future! I made her drink green, I hope she likes a nice Tom Collins. LOL!

Here is the card that I made her using Art Impressions – SC0653 – Beach Babes.

 

Here is a close-up of the image from the front of the card.

Here is the inside of the card. I made up some small saying to go with each letter of “Retired”.

She loved her card and I hope you do too!
