Funny Card For A Friend Back Home

Happy Thursday!

For today's card I used the adorable Digital Image, "My Croft"  from Dr. Digi's House of Stamps. 

I colored in the image with Watercolor Pencils from Close to my Heart. 

The card base is Bluebird cardstock from Close to my Heart.

All the layers of patterned paper are from the I Heart Us Paper Packet from Close to my Heart.

The strip of Goldrush cardstock is from Close to my Heart.
The colored image is layered with a piece of Sweet Leaf cardstock.

The "This Happened" sentiment from the "This Happened" Stamp Set. 

The "This Happened" Stamp Set is the March Stamp of the Month from Close to my Heart.

On the inside of the card, I stamped "Is it the Weekend Yet?" from the same stamp set.

I added a few Silver Glitter Gems to add some extra sparkle to the card.

Yippee! Masculine Card

Today's Card Features a Digital Stamp from Angie's Digital Stamps

 for our Think Big Challenge over at Pile It On! Challenge Blog.

This card features layers of Goldrush, and Espresso Cardstock. 

To add dimension, I used Nutmeg Ink to distress the edges. 

I also added 3-D Foam Tape to the back of the cut out image for dimension.

I finished the card off with the "Yippee" sticker from the Prickley Pear Complements.

Getting Started Early...

If you are like me, you have realized this year seems to be flying by fast... It is already June! EEK! So Christmas and Thanksgiving cards are definitely a priority right now. 

Today's card features an adorable "Cold Hedgehog" digital image from Gerda Steiner Designs. 

I used it to create my first Thanksgiving card for the upcoming holiday. 

I colored him with copics markers.

The majority of the layers on the card feature patterned paper from Close to my Heart. 

One of my favorite paper packets from last Fall's Seasonal Expressions, "Falling For You". 

While it is retired, I stocked up and hopefully you did too. 

The "Give Thanks" is just handwritten with a Cricut Marker on a few layered circles. The Goldrush and Fern circles are from Close to my Heart Cardstock.
