Happy Birthday Kathy!!!

Happy Tuesday!

Today I am joining many ladies in honoring Kathy Jakopovich's birthday.  

We all made something using Peachy Keen Stamps to honor such a wonderful woman.  We are all uploading pictures of our projects to The Peachy Place to surprise Kathy.   She is such a great person.  Love her to pieces!

I created a card using my favorite stamp release from Peachy Keen.  (You can find the full release here.)  

I used Bazzill Card Shoppe Cardstock and Simon Says Stamps Stitched Rectangle and Circle dies to create the front panel.  

Then I stamped it with the Peachy Keen Stamps Chinese Swirls background stamp in pastel blue Hero Arts Shadow Ink.  

The Clown from the Peachy Keen Stamps June 2014 Release was stamped on a white circle of Papertrey Ink cardstock with My Favorite Things Black Liquorice Hybrid Ink. 

I colored the clown with Prismacolor Pencils and Odorless Mineral Spirits.  I thought the color from pencils would work with the color of the cardstock better than Copics.  ;-)

I added Wink of Stella to his hat and bow tie, glossy accents to his glasses, and white gel pen to his shirt (polka dots), bow tie, and hat.  

The front of the card was finished off with a bit of twine and Doodlebug Sequins.  

To complete the inside, I stamped the full clown with ticket from the June 2014 release set in Desert Sand Memento Ink..and the sentiment in the hybrid ink so it popped.  

Be sure to pop over to The Peachy Place and wish Kathy a very Happy Birthday!!!

Harvest Greeting Shaker

Happy Saturday!!

It's a beautiful Autumn day here in the Midwest.  And it's raining leaves.  Ugh!  That means I have to make time on this lovely weekend to rake ALL of the leaves.   A woman's work is never done, is it?  

Before I head out to do yard work, I wanted to share a card with you.  

Peachy Keen Stamps has a photo/thankful challenge.  

Isn't this photo gorgeous?  There are SO many inspirations/themes to inspire.  

Here's what I came up with........

I used my Silhouette Cameo to create and cut my frames.  

I stamped the pumpkin and greeting in MFT Hybrid ink.  

 After I assembled the card, I added some interest with a clear Wink of Stella brush pen.  

I used these two Peachy Keen Stamp Sets.  

  

Supplies:

Sending Sunshine with Action Wobbles

Happy Tuesday!

 

I am posting on the Action Wobble blog with today's inspiration.

 

I created this cute little card to send to my daughter.  She is visiting family, and I LOVE to send her little Hellos. 

 

 

I used Peachy Keen Stamps February 2014 Stamp of the Month Set.  This set is perfect for action wobbles! 

 

I stamped the bear body and 2 heads on to Xpress Blending Card.  The second head was put on an action wobble. 

 

The trees, sun, and clouds are all colored with Copics.
