First up is a card that uses one of my favorite paper lines Willoughby. I just LOVE the patterns and the colors. The tree is from Love and Laughter stamp set.
This next one was a fun one. It uses the #1 selling paper, Angelee along with the I Love Easter stamp set. I stamped the image on darker cardstock then I would normally used but then colored it slightly with pencils and OMS and REALLY liked how it turned out. I attached a few paper posies and used fun flock on his tail - I mean a bunny has to have a fluffy tail, right? I based the card on sketch #5 in the catalog.
Next up is an Abby creation. Now my daughter is 5 and she is one of those abstract artists. She is so not like her mommy - I have to follow lines and everything match! She's more of a fly by the seat of her pants kind of girl and I totally dig that about her! A couple of days ago I was looking at Jen's blog where she had made the cutest wagon. Abby say it and said "Mommy we have to make that". Well after many hours trying to get the template downloaded and saved to my computer without success I gave up. In the meantime, she had started building her own wagon. Now she did this all by herself with NOTHING in front of her to look at or copy. She saw Jen's wagon for that brief moment and this is what she made:
She hand cut everything. Yes, I have circle punches and dies galore but the girl is all about doing it now (no waiting for Mommy's help!). I think it's pretty darn cute!! It's hard to believe she saw a picture and then went into the other room and created it. She definitely gets that from her Papa. It amazes me how my Dad can see something and then go back to his shop and recreate it...That's a talent for sure!
Well that's it for today! I hope you are having a great summer and enjoying yourself. Thank you for taking the time to visit and leave comments! I LOVE reading each and everyone of them!!
