Happy Canada Day!!!!


Happy Canada Day!!!!!

Today will be filled with family, great food and some awesome fireworks to finish off the day.

In celebration, I made a card!  I'm 10 minutes pasted June 30 for #thedailymarker30day2 but I'm sure Kathy won't mind.  ;)

I thought of this just a few hours ago, when I say my crafty friend Marcie's card I thought of doing one too.   Click here to visit her blog, she's pretty amazing.

Now on with my card.  I started out with the Lawn Fawn stitched leaves and die cut the maple leaf three times.  One leaf I cut in half and tucked them under the panel to make it look like I have four leaves on the card. 




 I used the new stitched oval dies to cut out two different sized panels and popped them both up on foam tape.

I used R24, R46 and R59 from my copics and coloured in the leaves and took the clear glitter Wink of Stella to finish them off.

 Finally I took the LF Milo's ABCs alphabet and stamped out the work CANADA with a little heart at the end with SSS Schoolhouse red ink.

Now on to my card!  I have a lovely Cafe Latte sitting pretty on a stand just waiting for that special someone to come and take it away!

I used the Lawn Fawn Love you a Latte and Baked with Love stamps sets.  The cup and sentiment is from Love you a Latte and the cake stand is from Baked with love and coloured them in with my copics.  I added a twine bow and white dots to the stand for interest.  


I cut out the front panel from the Lawn Fawn stitched rectangles and then framed it with a piece of grey card stock.  
I used a circle die and cut it out of printer paper so it wouldn't be too thick when I stamped it out.  I used a wood panel background and used a light grey ink then took a black pen and added stitch lines.
To finish off the card I took some hearts I had in my stash and added some sequins.


That's it for me.  A list of all the supplies are at the bottom of this post.

Happy Birthday Sister!


Hi everyone!

I'm back here a card that a coworker requested for her sister's birthday.  She loves cats so of course I thought of the adorable "I knead you" set from My Favourite Things stamps.


I started out with the cute kitty in the box, which is normally where I can find my kitty whenever there is an empty box laying around.  I had a recycling bag on the floor one day and I went to push it out of the way with my foot and the cat came running out of the bag!  Just about scared the daylights out of me!  Hehe!



I actually used the paw prints from the "You make my tail wag" set from MFT and stamped out the background with SSS Fog ink.

Then I coloured in the kitty and his fish with my copics.  I've been watching Sandy Allnock making magic come alive with her colouring and I need to practice more.

I used the SSS Happy Messages stamp for the sentiment and Milo's ABS's for the Sister and I stamped those in Slate SSS ink.




I used the Wink of Stella on the fish and the collar but unfortunately you can't really see it on the fist.

I used the Lawn Fawn stitched rectangle dies for the panels.  I used, I think it's fog card stock for the bottom panel (it was in a monthly card kit).



Stay tuned on Friday for the Lawnscaping Coffee Lovers Blog hop!  
I can't wait to show you my card!
