Happy Bird Day!

Happy Sunday HH Fans!

I'm back today with another card in my Farm Series.  This scene was so much fun to make & the images were super easy to color.  There is so much I could have done with these awesome little guys I had a hard time deciding.  This is what I settled on....

I started by stamping & cutting out all my images then I colored them all.  When I cut out an image I always grab my black marker & outline the edges so there is no white.  I just like that finished off look when I do that.

 

Stamps for this scene - Happy Bird Day sentiment F098, Brewster H189, Corn Stalk M011, Henrietta's Front Q034, Henrietta's Backside Q035, Hay Stack K020

Howdy Pardner!

Happy Saturday HH fans!

I have been spending sometime this list couple of weeks coloring up some of our awesome farm images.  Staying home has given me the opportunity to relax & enjoy some "me" time.  I miss my friends & family like crazy just like all of you.  

Today I'm sharing Bobby Lee with our Tractor & the sentiment Howdy Pardner.  Isn't Bobby just the sweetest little boy?!

I cut a piece of white cardstock for the background behind the images & used a blue ink with my blending tool to create the background.

 

The clouds are cut from a sweet cloud die I have had in my stash of goodies forever.  The patterned paper is from Bella Blvd & is several years old...I must say I have been hanging onto this waiting for the perfect cards....the time is now lol.

Three little words...."Hang In There"

Happy Saturday everyone!

Today I wanted to share a little bit of encouragement & inspiration with everyone.  Just 3 little words...."Hang In There".  It's a very difficult world for all right now so this week I picked Juliettes Leap of Faith.  This card is quite simple but I think it will brighten someone's day.

I used an older Bo Bunny patterned paper with adorable hot air balloons for the matting.  I know if I was in a hot air balloon I would be wearing a parachute....just in case lol.

I stamped Juliette & fussy cut her out...it's wasn't too difficult at all.  I black lined around the edges with my Memento Tuxedo Black after I cut her out.

I created the little heart boarder across the bottom with an older Martha Stewart punch, I actually don't even recall every using it before...I think we all have things in our stash that haven't been used.  Couldn't resist this week just had to add some ribbon & enamel dots too.  I stamped the Hang in There sentiment with Prima Rusty Keys ink.

A little help from Bella

Happy Saturday!

It has been several weeks since I have had the chance to post a new crafty creation.  With all that is going on in the world currently things have just got in the way of me getting into my craft room.  BUT after figuring out what our new normal is like I think I will have more opportunities to "Play"! 

I did get some crafty help from our lovely and extremely affectionate "Bella".  Here she is trying her best to swipe my twine...which by the way she actually did get & now I cannot find.  This gal also thinks it's totally cool to lay on Mommy's arm while she tries to get some coloring done.  The icky part of that is she gets so excited that she drools all over my arm....yuck right!!  But she is my "crafty kitty" & loves to spend time with me. 

I wanted to create a card that was clean & simple but I also had "white" on the brain.  I think because it's such a "clean" color to me & gosh do we need that right now.  So I chose this beautiful image from our High Hopes collection called "Cindy's Garden".  Spring is here & the flowers will soon bloom I also know some people who could really use a pick me up right now.  I paired Cindy's Garden with the sentiment "Flutter'in By" which I think is such a whimsical verse.  I just added some very light pink for the matting & a few enamel dots....no ribbon...can you believe that!  I even kept the colors for the image simple.
