Comic relief

Sending some comic relief to my mother. She lives for Wednesdays...bingo night. While she's a tiny, thin thing, and the woman looks nothing like her, it does resemble a few there! You wonder where all the bra-burners from the 60s went? Bingo, that's where. Ah, it's all good and fun. Hope she wins BIG on her birthday!




Stamps: Hero arts - flowers, I Brake for Stamps - bingo edith

Love is patient...

Stamps : Autumn Leaves, I brake for stamps

miss you like Crazy!

Been missing home and my BF there, so I've been working on cards to send back home.

Stamps: Verve Stamps, Stampotique
I scratched the black brads with an exacto & colored the white with a Sharpie to quasi match

DCM - Quote Challenge

I haven't done a DCM card challenge in forever, but this week it is to use a quote that I adore and happen to have on a stamp by Jody Poesy. It was a sign! (plus it was right up my bird theme alley!)


Sentiment: Jody Poesy
Bird stamp, cut out and behind vellum: Inkadinkado
Vellum: Provo Nature's feathers
Background PP: Basic Grey Stella Ruby
Base: Bazzill

I'm so glad...

Seems I'm back to simple cards, but it's a start. Actually, if I never get back to being a technique junkie or detailed whatever, it still is quite enjoyable just to create, so I'll just be grateful for that.

Once you have flown...

This is one of my old, favorite quote stamps, by Stamp Camp. "Once you have flown, you will walk with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, there you long to return - Da Vinci." Went well with the bird spell I seem to be under at the moment.

Just fluttering by..

Spread your wings

Imagine that..another bird card!

I'm back!

It's been a long time coming, but I'm back...and hopefully to stay active!
This is a card I made a few months back for someone who really put some things into perspective for me. Thank you, Audrey! {warm heart}

This is done with wax paper resist background to start and a page from a french book torn away to reveal the stamped image. The heart (which is not black irl) is tied on with copper wire.
