Coloring with colored pencils

Do you ever have projects that take time? I recently went to use my Caran d’Ache colored pencils and found the floral stamp partially colored. It was from when I was pregnant with my third, and trying to craft but lacking inspiration. I also was suffering the worst case of pregnancy induced carpal tunnel and coloring was such a challenge!

So it was a nice welcome surprise to find after my symptoms subsided and my creativity was back. I finished coloring the image, Sketched Flowers from Simon Says Stamp, and then went to place it on a card and realized that it was too small! I some how used a scrap of cardstock that was not 4.25 X 5.5!

So I got creative with the background paper. I love finding little coloring treasurers and being able to turn them into a card. Does this ever happen to you?

Card number two with this awesome heart garden set Card number two with this awesome heart garden set from @simonsaysstamp! For this card I got out my #copic markers (the few I have!) and used a dot technique to shade the hearts and leaves in. I then cut the stamp into bundles to create a more dense garden! Added a #mom die and a reverse sentiment from sss and some background dots to finish it off!

I love being challenged to make unique cards! This I love being challenged to make unique cards! This was a request for a snowy snowmobile dad card and I am here for it! I used my @silhouette.inc to find and image and print it out, then I used my #mincfoil machine and gave it a nice silver shine. Then I used @simonsaysstamp prismatic snowflakes cause I felt like they were a little more masculine. Added some #distressink , splatter and shimmer spray and viola!

I recently watched a video where @bromerocards did I recently watched a video where @bromerocards did this beautiful black ink blend on red paper with gold embossing and I couldn’t get it out of my head! I used my @simonsaysstamp #sssck from December and went to town! I used the red and dark green paper from the pack, as well as the stamp set. For the green paper I blended white pigment ink on and used silver instead. And I recently purchased Simons antique gold embossing powder and it’s such an awesome gold! Move over liquid platinum, this embossing powder is my new favorite! Be sure to check out Ricky’s card from November 9!
