Think, think, think.....

I love this tree image.

It's from Lovely As a Tree, a very versatile stamp set, great for seasonal, and masculine cards!

Why do I love this particular tree? It reminds of of the Party Tree in the Shire, from the Lord of the Rings, or it could be a giant tree from the Thousand Acre Woods....both are my favourite fictional places.









Hmmm..... if only I could figure out how to add streamers to the tree. Then I could make a Tolkien-esque card.....

Or maybe I can add a Winnie the Pooh sticker....and Tigger too!


Think, think, think.....

Blooming Beautiful

I've been busy lately but have made plenty of cards this past month.

I thought I'd post the Mother's Day card I made.... I used a sponge and regular ink pad to create the background. To help the sponge pick up more colour, you can always spray a little bit of water onto the sponge, or use a re-inker. I also used chalk pastels to watercolour the flower image.

I like using the scalloped circle punch. It's great for spotlighting an image!!
