Trying for the Big One


A card for my grandson turning 19 who does love to fish.  The image is from Digi Stamps for Joy.  I have colored the image with copics, and used a silver Gelly Roll pen from Sakura for the Fishing pole and reel.
The punch is from EK Success.  The fish hooks down the side are from Canadian Tire.  The sentiment is a stamp from Inkadinkado.  And the card stock is from my stash.

  I am entering this into DS4J challenge #53 Anything Goes - with a masculine twist.

Mushrooms from the Forest


What color are mushrooms!  Any pretty color you would like them to be!  This sweet image is from  Digi Stamps for Joy.  I colored the image with copics, and then applied Rangers Glossy Accents all over the image. I mounted it on a die cut from Spellbinders.  Added a strip of DP across the background DP and a ribbon with bow.  I then stuck several pins that I had made into the bow.  This is rather a dark card, but if I have time I will make another in lighter colors.  I am entering this in the CDAC Progressive Challenge 22a and 22b.  And Challenge #53 Digi Stamps for Joy, With a Masculine Twist.

I will have to get moving and get my other cards made, don't know where time goes these days, but the weather has not been too bad lately, not too cold to be out and about.

Music for Teens


I find that making a card for a teenage boy is sometimes quite a chore, but D'Arcy's Diaries has some wonderful images that suit my grandsons to a T.  This image was colored with copics, the DP is from DCWV.  I really like the way the colored circles on the paper sort of framed the image.  The stamp sentiment is from Inkadinkadoo.

Hopefully I will be over this cold soon and will be able to keep up with blogging better than I have over the last few weeks.  My husband is down to one physio session a week from three, so that will free up some time for me.  My curling does start next week, so I will be there Tuesday and Wednesday mornings, did not sign up for competitive curling this year as Norms physio is on the morning they have that.
