Yellow Submarine!

30 Apr

Actually this one is silver! A yellow one is on the way!

I used clear cs to make a glass window on the submarine and loved how it turned out! I also stamped the submarine on glittery silver paper which gives it a nice finish.  This is also my first card using distressed inks correctly. YAY!

I really need to combine stamp sets more often!

Scottie Wish Washi!

Scotties + Washi Tape = adorable!

I have been wanting to use the Scottie die cut and this idea came to me while I was working with the washi tape.

I can’t tell you how hard it was to get my two scotties to pose for this photo! I had treats in one hand and camera in the other! lol

This card is available for purchase on my etsy site! (Actual Scotties not included lol)

Sending love to you on Mother’s Day.

I love love love washi tape! I found these three washi tapes on esty and am addicted! I made this Mother’s Day card because May is just around the corner.  Inside I stamped the sentiment “Happy Mother’s Day” When I first got this stamp set I could not figure out why the little envelope had “swak” and finally it came to me! lol! So cute! Can’t wait to use more washi washi tape!

Who knew a worm could be so cute?

I had a request to make a few cards for some nurses who are approaching graduation! So I thought “You can do it! Almost There!” cards would be great for the occasion.   I’ll be making a few more of these cards for the graduation season!

The best part about making these is that I found these epoxy stickers that fit perfectly for his glasses!
