Gone Fishin'!!

Well I wish that was ME on that inner-tube fishing! Mr. Penguin looks soooo relaxed & happy!
I love these SU stamps, had them for awhile now, my AWESOME friend Rosy gave them to me years ago, but I just love them! (Love you too Rosy Babe!) And I love the orange & turquoise colours I have used on the cards!
I used my circle & rectangle nesties ( I cannot LIVE without those things!) to cut out the shapes. I have used my copics (can't live without those either..) to colour the image.
Fun, fun FUN is what I had making this!

Fluttering By...



I made this butterfly using my oval nesties - what FUN! I cut out 2 larger ovals & 2 smaller ones & placed them as shown on a small strip of blue card. (Hidden under neath) I then cut out a scallop circle (nesties, of course!) in orange card & stuck the butterfly to that. I added oval gems to his/her body & Kindy Glitz (I cannot live without that stuff!) to the edge of the wings.
I put some blue & orange ribbon (the orange ribbon is actually underneath the blue ribbon) to the bottom of the card & found two buttons that matched. I think I will try to make some other things with those nesties, they are soooo much fun!

Fun Flowers!



This is part of a Hero Art stamp (K4952 Sketchbook Flowers). I stamped the flowers then punched out just part of them. I also cut out a slightly larger black square & layered it behind the flowers. I cut another square in white & placed it as so in the photo. I used my copics to watercolour it & went around the edges with a light grey copic to 'shadow' the image. I crimped a strip of black card (just because I could!) & placed it on the black card behind the image. I like this stamp as I can play around with it & do different things with it! Lots'a fun girls!

Glamour Dogs!



Every dog has his day, as they say, & these guys are certainly having THEIR day! The dogs are some some scrap paper I got, & I just added some Kindy Glitz to them. I added a "Happy Day" button thing & a scallop (nesties) circle under neath. Then I stuck the dog paper to some blue card & glued that to the pink card. A quick & easy (& fun too!) card to make!

I Miss You!



This wee card measures 3 1/2 inches by 2 inches. I scanned it in b&w so NO colour is showing up on here! Oooops! The bunny is two shades of pink & the background square is burgundy. I used two stick on pearls on the corners.
Done is SECONDS! How easy is that?! The bunny is from Inky Antics.

You Hooo - It's Us!



I stamped the owls (Amazing Creations) on to the cream coloured circle, then stamped the floral thing across the pink card. I then stamped it again under the owls & matched it up & stuck the owls to the pink card. I stuck the whole lot onto blue card & added a ribbon down the side & some Kindy Glitz in various colours, to the owls. I added wobbly eyes to each owl to finish it. Oh yes, I also added some small gems to the floral stem.

A Very Tall Card!



This card is almost 8 inches tall! The stamp (Hero Arts) measures 5 inches high by 2 inches wide. I stamped it in black & glued tiny punched out flowers onto each flower head, adding one at teh bottom to make it appear as if it had fallen off. Or something! In the center of each tiny flower is a small gold gem. I got these from a Japanese shop. They were only a dollar a packet & there are heaps in each packet. Shame the shop has closed down!
I got the idea for the shape of the card from a card I got in the mail. I traced around it to get the right shape. The base card is black. I've tried stamping this stamp in colour but I prefer it in black. The fold side of the card is on the left.
