Oh Baby!

Isn't this the cutest duckies?!?! :) these are from an new Gina K set called Oh Baby, and this is an wish rak image that came to me from JenMarie ( Thanks Jen!) these are colored with prisma pencils and sewn to a scrap of PTI ocean tides cardstock that also came to me via wish rak from Stamping in Kansas ( Thanks Kris!) this blue tag panel is up on slim popdots over the check pp. I added an Hero Arts sentiment to the bottom. along with some colorbox fluid chalk ink {creamy brown} along the edges. This is actually an "tag" shaped card, its 3 1/2" wide and 6" long. so the tag base is neenah classic cream and its lined inside with more of the K&Co. check pp. with an Neenah center ( to write or journal on) the yellow spiral paperclip is an RAK (but, I've had it for like 10 years so i no longer remember where i got it... yellow is not a color i use often so i have a small stash of these along with some orange ones in the baggie...) The ric rac is vintage wrights, the satin ribbon is an rak from an ebay seller, the sheer is unknown.

something new with lots of something old...

I haven't done this in a long time, make what i mentally call an "heavy" card... the purple paper flower is from Savvy Stamps and the blues are from Prima. the I've had it a looong time Hero Arts Chance tag is stamped with colorbox fluid chalk ink in chestnut roan on Neenah classic cream cardstock and cut out. the speckletone Oatmeal was stamped with Colorbox fluid chalk ink in Prussian Blue with an New Gina K lovely label stamp that was die cut twice with an spellbinders label 1 die. the classic cream mat under that was cut in the new Label 13 die. these have a bit of colorbox creamy brown chalk ink on the edges. the double sided pp is from Polarbear Press (Blue Ridge Paisley) the dark brown textured mat is from Bazzill and the Paper Trey Ink Ocean Tides cardstock is an wish granted to me by Stamping in Kansas ( Thanks Kris!) love this color gonna have to break down and buy a pack soon i think. the lace is vintage and the tan sheer ribbon was rak'ed to me from Stampermom23boys ( Thanks Carrie!) this card is 6" square in real life. just an straight shot of the whole thing...

Some things from Saturday

Received this printed paper as an RAK from c-mouse ( thanks Pansy!) the bamboo button is from an yard sale grab bag. its tied to the SU sheer real red ribbon with brown hemp string is from walmart. The Judi Kins kimono is stamped with Memento on Neenah colored with prisma pencils and cut out. the brown mat is SU soft suede. the cardbase is Bazzill and this one is 6 inches square in real life. Probably not the most traditional of mothers day cards... got this Northwoods stamp and when i had the card mostly done kept thinking just mothers as an thought in the back of my mind so added this SU sentiment to it. they are stamped with Versafine Vintage sepia on Neenah, horses are colored with prisma pencils. The printed paper is from Sweetwater. the dark brown and blue cardstocks are bazzill the ribbon is unknown. this ones also 6 inches square in real life.

cards of course...

a little something i put together thinking about Alice, she's had a rough week. course I'd bet she is just fine by the time i actually get this to her... the frame is from the new Gina K designs set called Lovely Labels its stamped in creamy brown fluid chalk ink and cut out with scissors. (before my brain said ya know these are supposed to fit the spellbinders labels dies...) so, the mellow moss was cut and embossed with the same size die and it gave it a "mat" much closer in size. so this silly goof looks good. the Mudpie munch is stamped with Memento into the opening of the frame and colored a bit with prisma pencils. this is up on popdots. the ribbons from the dollar tree store and looks quite a bit like the blush blossom cardstock (maybe a tad darker) but the ribbon is one sided and scratchy/stiff. the patchwork printed paper is from K & Co.the Lockhart sentiment is stamped with versafine vintage sepia ink. the cardbase is creamy carmel this ones 4 1/2" square in real life. another little scraps card. 3" square the metal rimmed tag is an old old left over scrap supply ( still have 1 million and 68 of these left to use up..) the su sentiment was borrowed and punched from an tin set Di has a long time ago... (don't remember its name) its up on pop dots. the ribbons from May arts and the pp is from Basic Grey.
