Summer Penguins Card

Whew! It's a hot one today in Oklahoma. Being a land locked state, there are no pretty beaches to visit. So, I made my own little beach using the Summer Penguins stamp set by Pink & Main. The cute little penguin image was colored with Copic markers and then die cut with the coordinating die. The palm tree paper is from an older Carta Bella paper pad called Summer Lovin' (2014) and some waves paper from the Echo Park Under Sea Adventures paper pad (2021) was also used. Everything was adhered flat and that's it. So glad you stopped by and I hope you enjoy the rest of your day.🌴🌴🌴

Card from the Rescued Cats

Hello and Happy Father's Day! My hubby and I never had kids, but we have rescued cats. So, I made my hubby a Card from the Rescued Cats. He does a lot for them and I could never do it all alone. He will tell anyone that he wasn't really a cat person before he met me, I made him love cats. Right now, he is in the recliner taking a nap with our youngest who was rescued a block from our house last October. The poor little guy had been dumped and was crying for help. He would have never made it outside. Thankfully, he ended up with us. He is one of my hubby's best buddies.🐈

This Card from the Rescued Cats features a stamped image and sentiment from the Adopt Don't Shop Cats stamp set by Whimsy Stamps. The image was colored to look like our cats using Copic markers. Black cats are hard to color, but I think it turned out okay. The sentiment was popped up using foam tape and some sequins added for sparkle. So glad you stopped by and I hope you enjoy the rest of your day!

Papa Bear Card

Good day! I've had a severe case of the tireds lately and it's been a struggle to make anything. I'd rather lay down for a nap. Anyway, I finally made my dad a Father's Day Card using the retired Papa Bear stamp set by Newton's Nook. It's a simple card, but I adore the image. When I was little my dad would hold me up in the air propped up on his feet. It's a wonderful memory to recreate with a card. I hope he likes it! Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your day.

You Arff the Best Card

Hello! It's been a lazy Sunday at my house. So, I decided to make this You Arff the Best Card for a sweet lady I know. The dog image is from the Puppy Friends stamp set by Newton's Nook. After the images were colored using Copic markers they were die cut with the coordinating dies. A couple of pieces of patterned paper from the Day in the Life paper pad by Echo Park were selected. The focal panel was made using a deckle rectangle die, then sponging on distress inks in Tumbled Glass and Peeled Paint. Everything was adhered flat and that's it. So glad you stopped by!
