Another Valentine card.....

Hello Hello my Crafty Friends!!!!

So happy it's FRIDAY!!!!

My fave day of the week!!!

So I have been frantically working on 

Valentine cards. I have been staying up

late to get several cards done. I work

40 hours a week and that cuts into

my crafty time and mommy time!!!

Looking thru my stash of Pure Innocence

stamps I realize I only have 1 that is a 

Valentine one and that is 

Guess Who Loves You?

I also wanted to make a fun water

color background too in some 

Valentine colors. And this is what

I came up with....

I practically have used up most my 

supplies I bought at Hobby Lobby the 

other day making my cards.  I had fun 

paper piecing her top and I put glossy

accents on the lens of her glasses.

Happy Valentines Day

Hello my Crafty Friends!!

Hope everyone is looking forward to 

a fun and crafty weekend ahead!!!

So I watch a lot of videos by 

Kristina Werner 

and this one blog post and video

really inspired me a lot!!!!

I just had to try it for myself. 

Well I swear I don't feel very 

comfortable making a CAS style card. 

I love them when others do it but I feel

when I do it......well not so much!!

But in person these came out very shimmery

due to the little water spritzer I had to spray

water on the background used to have some 

shimmer paint in it. So it actually looks nice. 

I just can't seem to photograph it looking 

shimmery is all! 

So here is what I came up with....

This one I used the spritzing bottle

to get the ink moving around. 

This one I used just a paint brush 

and spritzed it a little after it had 

all dried. 

They look better in person. I still like 

Kristina's better. Just need to play

around with it some more.

Heart Lollipop Avery

I finally got a card finished!!

We have been doing some remodeling

in the house and I hadn't been allowed

to sneak away to my room because of it!!

Well my Father In Law needed his washer 

machine fixed at his place and that gave me

a way to play in my room!!! Yippee!!!!

I recently got this doll digital stamp 

from Paper Nest Dolls called 

Heart Lollipop Avery.

The picture doesn't show much bling

but there is white glitter CS on the left 

and I used my Wink of Stella glitter pen
