HAPPY LABOR DAY!!!!

Good Morning & Happy Labor Day!

Here in NYC it is clear, blue, sunny skies. A great day for a Labor Day BBQ! My In-Laws are having a little shin-dig and I was asked to bring my famous potatoe salad, and so this is going to be a really quick post. I haven't bought the potatoes as yet....LOL!

Okay, here is today's card - I just LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this flower stamp. There is so much surface area for coloring...which I love to do.

Enjoy your Labor Day and some great food! And if you can, try an squeeze in some crafting fun! Thanks for stopping by!

HAPPY ST.PATRICK DAY!!!

Hello all-

Happy St. Patrick's Day everybody!!! here in NYC, every year, there is a parade in midtown that starts at 11am and ends at 5pm. It is also televised for those who prefer to watch it on TV. Today's card i inspired by today's holiday. I created a monochromatic (that means all in one particuliar color) card all in green. Green is my son's favorite color, so he loved this card. I hope you do too!

The stamp is by Stampedous and I colored it in using PrismaColor Coloed Pencils. I also used Ranger's Inkssential's Glossy Accent to add a bit of dimension.

Enjoy your St.Patrick's Day and thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy March 1st - Spring is coming....

Good Morning all and Happy Mrach 1st!

I can not believe that it's March already. This year is zooming by and I am so looking forward to Spring. Here in NYC, we have had quite a bit of snow and I am just about all snowed out. I want to see the pretty flowers and butterflies!

Today's card is inspired by the spring and flowers. I used a great flower stamp by Stampenous as the focal point of the card. I colored it in using PrismaColor Colored Pencils and then added a layer of Inkessentials Glossy Accents to the edges of each petal. I love the shine and dimension it gives. This Glossy Accents is my NEW favorite thing now...LOL!

I hope you like the card ad I hope it inspires you to get your flower stamps out and get to stamping. Thanks so much for stopping by!
