Quick Cards

Hello Friends, This will be a quick post today. I have to get some work done before CHA and my sweet daughter is sick with the flu!! So I know that all you moms out there know what that’s like.

Love You

I just had to take a break to share this card. Recently I taught a class to a group of wonderful, talented and delightful women from my favorite stamp store!. The class was called “instant cards” and each person went away with six of them. This card is one of my “instant” cards. All I had to do was add it to a card base and jazz it, bling it, or doily it up. 

Here is the post that shows all six cards that were created with one sheet of SRM stickers and one Penny Black flower stamp. It’s so fun to design your own paper.

Love You

I used  watercolor paper to punch out a heart and colored it with Barn Door by laying it right on top of the stamp pad.(I like some area’s to not be completely covered) Worn Lipstick is what was used around the edges of the card. Each flower was outlined with a Copic marker and this really makes the flower pop. You must try this. I also traced the flowers again with a glittery marker for some subtle sparkle. When finished add your sentiment from SRM stickers. Don’t you LOVE this “doily” it’s actually called a “Napperon” and they are square and so delicious plus a great value. I was delighted to find them at my local five & dime type store.

One more thing…. the NEW Penny Black stamps they are AMAZING!

Thanks for stopping !! Hugs, Kathy
