Another "Greeting Card Kids" card

Good morning!

Everyone attending my workshops this months has to make a choice.  They can either make this Halloween girl or the Christmas girl.  That is a hard decision I know!!   They are both really cute!

So- here is the same card that I posted yesterday, but I used Pumpkin Pie designer paper along the edges & I used a different stamp from this set.  What a cute little witch!  HUH!

'Greeting Card Kids' & Teeny Tiny Wishes'

cs:  Wild Wasabi, Crumb Cake, Naturals White

Brights Designer Series Paper Pack

ink:  Black Stazon

markers: Real Red, Wild Wasabi, Chocolate Chip

supplies:  Big Shot, Chevron Embossing folder, word window punch, Modern Label punch, 2 1/2" circle punch, Designer Ribbon slides, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, 2 way glue pen, Dimensionals, glue dot, Blender pens, Wild Wasabi Stitched ribbon

 I think she is just adorable too!!
I colored her with blender pens & markers to give her a more subtle look.
I used the top of my stamp case as my color palate & scribbled the markers on top of it (using the brush tipped (wide) end), then picked up the colors with my blender pen & colored onto the stamped image.
I used Naturals White card stock.  
NOTE:  Very Vanilla & Whisper White card stock don't work well when trying to watercolor.  Our watercolor paper would have been the best choice, but the piece of cardstock I stamped this image onto is on the inside of the card & measures 5 1/2" x 3 1/8".

I didn't have any bladder or kidney infection when I went to the dr yesterday- so guess that is good news!  I do have a cyst on my ovary & hoping it goes away on it's own soon or I will be going back to the dr next week for an ultrasound & the next step.  Thanks for notes & phone calls checking on me!  I am still really sore & tired.   Hope to be back to normal soon!

I am planning to be home all day today!!  LOTS to do to plan my big upcoming Stamp 'Til You Cramp!  I have more ideas to share then we have time to do that day, so have to get things narrowed down.

Have a great weekend!!

Happy Stamping!

ENJOY!

'Greeting Card Kids'

Good morning!
No boys today....Manda has the day off & gets to stay home with them.  She has had Parent Teachers Conferences the past 2 nights, so nice she is home & will get an extra day with them.

I've been having lower back pain & lower abdominal pain since Monday & it is getting worse so I'm off to the dr today.  Praying it isn't anything too serious- I don't have time to be sick.  I am also tired of hurting so bad though.

We all had a FUN time stamping last night!!  Glad to see those that joined me.  Everyone stamped some cute cards!!  Here is one of them.......I love this cute little 'Greeting Card Kids' Christmas/Winter girl.

This is a window card.
I punched the window out of the front that opens up with the 2 1/2" circle punch.
I think this little girl is just adorable!

I love the softened look of coloring with markers & blender pens.

Have a great day!

Happy Stamping!

Another 'Watercolor Winter' pinecone

Good morning!

Here is another Christmas card that I created using the 'Watercolor Winter' stamp set.  I really like this card & debated on it being one of my Christmas Stamp-a-Stack cards.   But I used this layout then with the Holly & Berries instead.  It is the last Christmas Stamp-a-Stack card that I posted yesterday- so note that they are the same layout! 

'Watercolor Winter' & 'Greetings of the Season'

cs:  Early Espresso, Crumb Cake & Very Vanilla

ink:  Always Artichoke & Early Espresso

supplies:  Big Shot, Lacy Brocade embossing folder, Label Collections framelits, sponge & dimensionals, Crumb Cake Seam Binding ribbon, glue dot, Champagne Shimmer Paint/Spray

Late yesterday afternoon Deke & I went to the visitation of our classmates mom- Sarah Smithart.   Sarah use to be the cook at Sigourney & then worked at our local vet office- PLUS much more in our community!  She will be missed by many!  Then when we got home we changed clothes & off we went to load hogs & got in late.  We did get a little bit of rain last night- which was very welcomed- even though we got wet standing in line at the visitation.  We are suppose to get some more on Saturday & pray we do! 

Today "bright & early" I have all 3 boys, as Nathan & Manda both have to be at school early for meetings.  I think that Brayden is going to go ride in the combine with Uncle Jerry & Aunt Kathy for awhile later this morning.  Deke will be out of town for a long meeting all day.  AND MAYBE if I am lucky the twins will take a nap & I can get some card stock folded & big shot things cut for my Stampin' Night I have here tomorrow night.  

Hope you have a great day!!

Happy Stamping!
ENJOY!
