School Swap #2

I had no mojo when I started this card, but I ended up liking the final result. The funny thing is...it's a card I can see Leish making. The colors are her. The image is her. And yes, Signature Greetings belongs to her. She even gave me the idea for a woodgrain "stage." 

This is our school's second card swap and the theme was birthday. I also asked that everyone include buttons or ribbon. I'm glad I put on the button because I didn't remember the requirement until AFTER I was done with my card.

Cheeky Rockabilly Part Deux

For the life of me, I cannot understand how to color hair. However, I am getting better. I keep one of Leish's samples in front of me, and I try my best to duplicate it. I borrowed her Signature Greetings and am totally and utterly in love. It's on my wish list. :) This is a simple card, but I really had fun with it.

Hope-Snuggle

Mrs. E (aka Leish) stamped me this cute image, and I had a blast coloring with my Copics. I also had a major success here when I stamped the entire background using PBII. Not a difficult feat for all you pros out there, but for me...awe inspiring. Lol.

I am soooooo not a girly girl (although I DO love being a Doll), so it was a stretch for me to use such soft colors.

That rick rack die is soooo versatile. After I cut my rick rack piece, I noticed how nice the remaining piece was and decided to use it to frame my buttons. Woo hoo for not wasting paper. Now only if I had some flower soft stuff to make the bunny fluffy...

Om

I've been loving playing with Yoga Anya recently. Remember when I went through card after card using Delightful Dahlias? Yeah, same thing! Anyway, as Mrs. E says, "Yoga Anya has a lot of face." She does. But she's sooooo darn cute.

I recently ordered three of Basic Grey's 6x6 pads for some baby albums I'm making. I know you can't see the pink paper, but it's sponged looking, which I thought matched Yoga Anya well. I didn't stamp a sentiment because, well, I don't know what I'm going to use it for yet. I figure that when I decide, I can add the sentiment.

Stamps: Yoga Anya (The Greeting Farm)

Ink: Memento Black

Paper: Stamper's Select White (PTI), Basic Grey's Porcelain line

In Love with The Greeting Farm

I love The Greeting Farm. Their stamps are sooooo fun to color. I made the first card a while ago, but couldn't share it until I actually gave it. I used the Love Anya image from Mrs. E and the Wisteria papers from Basic Grey. I also used PTI's Smokey Shadow cardstock as a base. Loving that color recently.

The second card features another image Mrs. E stamped for me to color. I love the hair on her. I kept it simple only stamping a background and using a Nestie to mat.
