I hope you are all enjoying some wonderful weather – wherever you are!  This weekend it looks like a rainy one here, which is ok because we need the rain!  We’ve got our small vegetable garden going and are looking forward to fresh tomatoes, peppers and squash.  We’ve also planted rosemary, cilantro and mint.    This Sunday is Mother’s Day and I’d like to wish all the mother’s out there a lovely day.

Here is another card I did for my recent copic class.  The hollyhock image can be any color – I went with pink tones because I had alot of pink cardstock on hand to match!  The image was colored with copics.  I hope you like it.

It’s hard to believe that some areas of the US are still getting snow – so glad I live in Florida!!  So – I decided to send some warmth up north via this card.

It was inspired by Theresa Mombers design shown here.  I used an image from Viva Las Vegas stamps along with Memento’s Dandelion and Cantelope ink for the sun.

 

Thanks for stopping by today!

I have not blogged for awhile – just busy with life, that’s all!!    We’ve been doing some traveling and keeping busy with other things and my crafting has taken a bit of a vacation.

So…now is the time to get back into the swing of things.  I’m teaching a copic class this Saturday at the Gulf Coast Crop-n-Shop weekend at the Emerald  Coast Convention Center in Fort Walton Beach and I thought I would show one of the cards we are making:

The sandcastle image is from Impression Obsession and the sentiment from Papertrey.  This was a relatively easy image to color.  I used copics E30, E21 and E26 for the main image, along with G82, G85 Y11 and R27 for the fence, grass, sun and sand pail.  The sky was sponged using Memento Summer sky ink.  This could easily become a holiday card – I love to use beachy type images for my holiday cards that I send to my family up north.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

This card is for the color challenge at SCS this week.  It calls for using some great summer colors – sand and two different shades of blue – so we are still thinking beach!!  Yay!!

The foliage images, from Starvingartistamps were stamped in sand and the sentiment, from Papertrey in Not Quite Navy.

Easy peasy as they say!!

Thanks for stopping by today!
