Just a Little more Summer Please.

I just adore anything Poppy Power and this digi set explains why.  You don't even have to be an experienced card maker to make something delightful. The stamp has done most of the work for my card.

 

I have used Poppy Power's digi stamp set Countryside Bouquet and colored it with Prisma pencils and Gamsol. The Dies are Spellbinder's Gold Labels Four and Decorative Labels Eight. The pearls were kind of an after thought, just to fill in the white area a little.

 

This will be going straight over to Poppy Powers Challenge Blog.

 

Cataract Surgery tomorrow.  Wish me well!

 

It's a Wrap

Can you believe September is almost gone.  Only 93 day left for this year and 87 until Christmas.
So these cute little bears from Cuddly Buddly are wrapping it up.

The wreath was cut on my Silhouette Cameo. The embossing folder is from Nellie Snellen.

For this one I used the Marianne poinsettia die and Marianne Anas Large Oval die to mount

Cuddly Buddly stamp Time for Giving.

The greenery is a Martha Stewart punch and the embossing folder is from Darice.

Both images were colored with a combination of Copics, pencils and Gamsol.

See you in October.

Snow Globe

I found this cute card design at the Silhouette Cameo online store, and edited it to work with Cuddly Buddly's penguin from their August release. Isn't he cute?

The SVG file came with a Santa and Sleigh, but I wanted it for this image.  With the Silhouette Cameo I can scan an image or upload a digital image and either cut it or weld it to an existing SVG file. So cool!

This is actually a tri-fold card. 

I used Copics to color the image and added a bit of Viva glitter. I sponged the outer edges of the card globe and stamped some snowflakes inside the globe.  The green poinsettia is a Marianne die with some gems in the center.

Cuddly Buddly Tags

Today I have some tags to show you.  I don't often do tags, because most stamps are just too large.
This reindeer from the August release is the perfect size.

gust release set is just perfect.

The top tag was colored with pencils and Gamsol, and the green tag was colored with Copics. Both were cut with Marianne Dies.  The green tag was cut on the fold and made card style.

Hope you have a fantastic week.

Winter Fun.

It's easy to have a fondness for Winter in August, and when you have an awesome fun stamp to use.

I used my colored pencils and Gamsol to color this sweet little guy.
I cut him out with a Marianne boarder die, flipping it to get top and bottom and framed with red and green card stock.  Then I topped it off with some German Viva Glitter and pretty ribbon.

137 days to Christmas!

Toby Tumble Loves Christmas

Toby Tumble is one of my favorite characters.  This stamp set is going to be a must use every Christmas.

For this card I used colored pencils with Gamsol.. The Marianne die was doubled up to create a larger frame.  The sentiment was mounted on another Marianne die. Snowflakes were left overs from a Martha Stewart punch. And what Christmas card is complete without some Viva German glitter? 

Again all product can be found at the Cuddly Buddly Store!
