Bday cards for Lin

Here are 4 of the cards I have made so far for Lin. You gotta love these characters! I'm sure the kids will too.

Sweet Craftin' Candy!

Sara, in her Stamping Sanctuary, has some candy for a giveaway. Again...probably too sweet for your taste. So, just ignore it...you're on a diet right? haha.

Corrosive Challenge Blog

Last night I checked the Corrosive Challenge Blog. Mission: a card with something Springy or Eastery on it. Well, I thought back to my very first House Mouse stamp with my big sis Lisa sent me a couple of weeks ago! Even though I used a HM image for last week's challenge, this bunny was so cuddly...he had to be inked up!

Love these challenge blogs!!

Live...from a stamp show near you!

A while back, I met this stamper named Mybearybest on SCS. She was my Secret Big Sister and what a great sis she was! In fact, she still comments on every card I post in my SCS gallery. Thanks Michelle!

As luck would have it, she went to a big stamp trade show with some friends. And stopped by the Starving Artistamps' booth to snap some pix of my cards on display. I remember seeing Juliana's cards last August on these display boards. (She is a Starving Artistamp DT member.) It was really fun to see something in person which I had seen online. (Sort of like when I traveled Europe and saw countless paintings and sculptures in person after studying them in my art history classes...wow...talk about amazing stuff!)

TaDA! You can probably pick out my cards if you read this blog. DD and I have had fun looking through the pix and counting!





How many can YOU count?

PMS Monday Challenge....

Today's PMS challenge is an Inspiration Challenge. What do you think when you see this picture?




Well, I couldn't resist the colors and boldness. So my card is more graphic than refined.


Detail of what is inside this sweet egg:


And voila...the inside. I colored her with the same bold colors and in solid ink...no shading. The shirt is dusted with dazzling diamonds.

Did you notice that she is holding the same egg that is on the front of a card? Of course! Fairies are mysterious!
