Let's Make Waves

Today I'm playing at AAA Birthday Card Challenge where it's anything goes as long as it's for BIRTHDAY! I thought these mermaids from Pink & Main would be fun to play with. I love a scene card and things come together easy when the set includes some accessories.

I started with a simple Distress Oxide ink background and then added the Copic Colored images. I used the Let's Make Waves stamp set. The images were easy to color and I had lots of fun making this scene.

I like to arrange the images on a piece of clear plastic the size of my card base to help me decide what to put where. It was easy with the rock and coral to layer across the sea floor.

Some of the images are adhered flat to the card base to help "ground" them while others are adhered with adhesive foam tape to give the appearance of them floating. It really does make a big difference.

I hope you'll find some time to play along. It's really relaxing and I don't know about you, but I'm always surprised when I see the completed design.

Make A Wish!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope life is good and that you're having a great day. Today I'm playing along at Beautiful Blossoms Challenge It's always anything goes and this time they have an optional inspiration photo to get your wheels spinning!

It's that time of year when finally green has returned but so have the dandelions! And while some of you might not consider these beautiful blooms there are so many beautiful things about dandelions.

I think the first flower our children pick for us is a dandelion How many of us have made a wish blowing on the dried head of a dandelion? The seeds drift off into the air like our wishes on the wind. From what I've been told my great grandfather used to make dandelion wine! Talk about making the most of what life throws your way!

My dandelions are arranged on layered Rounded Stitched Rectangles. I stamped the sentiment directly on the white panel and embellished the design with some pretty sparkly pearls.

I hope you make the most from whatever life throws your way. Hugs to you!

Comfort and Good Company

Today I'm playing at Girlz Makes Guyz Cards where they want you to make with dogs or cats for your guy! I'm going with the dog because my guy loves dogs and it's got to be a BIG dog because anything smaller is referred to as a squirrel.

The Waffle Flower Cozy Spot die set helps you set the scene with the flooring, rug and recliner. I added a Happy Chevron texture background panel to resemble wall paper.

The background has a coordinating stencil, and yes, there is a stencil to coordinate the scene inside the window too!

The dog is from the Cozy Spot Animals that lets you choose between a dog and a cat! And the sentiment is from the Simple Joy Sentiments.

I think my guy would find this a welcome scene to come home to with time to sit down and relax.
