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.

Brighter Days Are Ahead

Today I'm playing at Moving Along With The Times and Pearly Sparkles Challenge Blog where they're both looking for one or more butterflies.

I thought I'd go CAS - Clean and Simple today with this card featuring the Pink & Main's Brighter Days stamp set. First I swiped the new TWINKLE ink in rainbow shades to create a background. These new inks are dye based - meaning they sink into the paper, and leave behind a gorgeous sparkly shimmer.

I topped the rainbow stripes with a clean butterfly and sentiment that I stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink. This ink always leaves a crisp impression on any detailed stamp.

The finishing touch is a few gold jewels that come on a sheet complete with sticky adhesive so just peel and stick.

I hope you have a great day!

Turtley Awesome!

Today I'm playing along at Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where this time it's Nobody Here! Make a project with no humans. This sweet under water scene is just the ticket!

I started with an alcohol ink background. Something I don't normally use because I find it very messy. Alcohol ink does not come out of your clothes kids! Be prepared! When I do make with alcohol ink I make SEVERAL panels on YUPO at a time. It is fun and beautiful but you really need a big clean clear space to work in especially if you're using air to move your ink around.

Background made check! Time to add the die cuts to create a fun underwater scene. The Happy Turtles are from Waffle Flower and oh so easy to assemble by stacking your cuts.

The seaweed and smaller fish complete the scene. I gave them all silly eyes to add a touch of whimsy to my design. Are they looking at you?

I hope you're smiling and find time to make today!
