June 25 Catch More Fish

Hi Welcome back!

I haven't posted in a while, sorry about that. Just had a few hiccups kicking around in my life in the last little bit. LOL. I have sat down and colored some serious images in the past couple days though .... now to get them made into some inspiring cards for you to pop back in and check out. The weather has been pretty good the last few days, a bit of well needed  rain in there as well.

The card that I made is created using a wonderful image from Whimsy stamps called "Catch More Fish" from Stamp Art Design. I love this image it can be used for a number of occasions, I chose to do a birthday card.  Fathers day or a just because card would be wonderful also. I colored it with copic markers and  added  a little smudge of some pearl accents to give the fish a bit of a sheen on the top of him. As soon as I seen this fabulous image I just knew I had to go to the store to find a fly fishing hook to give the card some depth. Also the hook would act as a little gift to the receiver of the card. I just cut a foam square smaller and stuck the hook over top of the digital hook. 

A closer look at the image.

I hope you have a simply wonderful day!

June Challenge Tic-Tac-Toe

Welcome back to my blog!

On the Whimsy challenge blog we have started another new challenge, this month it's Tic- Tac- Toe. the format for the challenge is as below:


I used the line on the Tic-Tac-Toe card summer, die cut and sentiment. I made a slider card for the first time and the sentiment is inside the slider. It took me a little bit to template this card but I do really like the way it turned out.The outside is simple but I think it works and really shows off the colored image.

I used the super cute new Whimsy Stamps image called Summer Girl from designer Lia Stampz's  vintage girl collection What a great summer image, makes you want to go to the park or have some lemonade. I hope to see you create a card using the challenge format for this challenge and add it to the Whimsy challenge page for a chance to win some really fabulous digital images.

Have a fabulous day.
