House Mouse Birthday Card

Coloring these little House Mouse images makes me so happy!! They seem to have a great life, don't they?
For this image called Eat Cake and Nap too: E00. E21, E33. E37, E50. E53, BG10,BG11, BG13. R24,R27,R29. I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black with my MISTI. I matched these colors with the Echo Park Party Time 6x6 papers. This is a more masculine and colorful card than my frilly ones. I used my Spellbinders Pierced ovals die as well as the Celebration set that had the balloon dies with my Platinum 6 die cutting machine.  The pierced oval represents the stitching I was to do for the House Mouse challenge. And the balloon twine is to represent the threads. Twine by Divine Twine. Sequins to show the frivolity of the celebration were from Kennedy Grace Creation called Chantilly.

Kennedy Grace Vintage Tea Cup

    I know the Summer Coffee Blog Hop is over but here is a card I made just for the fun of it!! I love using Kennedy Grace Vintage Tea Cup stamp set and can say it is my fav' of all the Kennedy Grace Creations Stamps. I love the roses engraved on this beautiful tea pot and cup and enjoy choosing different colors to go together.
    I stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, and colored it with Copic Sketch Markers in Y11, Y13, Y15, 0, YG06,YG11, BG10, BG11, BG13, C1, C3, C5, and a Multiliner in 0.3. I stamped the border and the cup first using my MISTI tool, and then masked the cup and stamped the tea pot. By setting the pair over a bit, there was plenty of room for the sentiment. The Sequins were Sunshine on the Daisies which is so many shapes and in such a pretty yellow and irridescent. I hope you are enjoying your summer and have time to have coloring fun like I do!
   As for the rest of the card, it consists of Graphic 45 Courture Gorgeous pattern paper matched with 2 cardstocks that highlight the Copic colors. And I added a soft yellow seam binding bow.
You can see my post over on Kennedy Grace Creations Blog too.

Spring Violets

  Hello, this is Beverly here to share my Sympathy card using Kenndy Grace Creations Grace's Little Note.

 Since Spring has arrived, I felt my card needed more of a bright feel to it so I colored the flowers as Aftican Violets with Copic Markers, and Prisma Pencils.  I did want to match Kathy Racoosin's Day 10 card sample of using distress inks on my background. I then fussy cut the flower and stems out, and tied it with a piece of burlap thread, as she had somewhat done. The Sequins are Kennedy Grace Creations Enchanted Evening. The sentiment is from the same set.
  To keep with the Spring feel of the card, I chose a floral design from Crate Paper. It matched the colors so well also.

Hope this brings sunshine in your life today,
