Skylines and Oxides

I love the look of silhouette stamps and I got a chance to work with a Hero Arts digi kit that includes a cityscape silhouette...so of course that's the stamp I used first!

It's up on the a2z Scrapbooking blog today with more details, hope you'll stop by and say hi!

Here's a peek at one of them!

Happy Thursday!

Oldie And Goodie

Sorting through pictures the other day and came across this card. It was one of the first cards I ever used a sewing machine on. I've only done stitching a few times but it does add a little extra something to a card. I thought it was appropriate for an old-fashioned silhouette stamp like this one from Hero Arts.

I absolutely love that ribbon and resin rose together. I got it in a class and used it on a different project (this one) than the one intended. I don't know why I never purchased more, but maybe I should! 

I just got some new paints from Jo Ann's ordered (Bo Bunny paints) and am anxious to try those out, but I'm putting ribbon on the list for next time!

Happy Wednesday!

Happy Father's Day...Early

Yes, I know it's May, which means Mother's Day is coming, but that didn't stop me from making a Father's Day Card. I made it for a magazine call and it didn't make it in, but I still like the idea, so here it is!

This is a digi sentiment that they offered but is no longer available, but I typed the inside myself on the computer and guessed at the color. If you had a deer stamp of some sort you could recreate this. The thumbprints are each kid with their name and added anters, eyes and noses. The hearts are the adorable enamel stickers from Doodlebug Designs.

You could even do this as a Mother's Day Card...I might switch up the color scheme, but I don't see why deer can't be a mom thing too!

These digi deer (buck and doe) images appear to be free from imgkid.com. Or you could use Tim Holtz's deer die below and snip the antlers for a Mom card.

 

At any rate, I probably ought to focus on Mother's Day card next! Only 9 days away!!

Happy Friday!
