Quilted Thanks

Hello!


This Amaryllis never made it to the front of a Christmas card, but I think it makes a stunning Christmas thank you.   After coloring the image (Penny Black) I cut it out to fit on top of  a die cut piece of red vellum.

I mounted it on a quilt cut card base and added the sentiment from Simon Says Stamp.

I think my friend will enjoy the card as much as I am enjoying her gift.

Cups

Hi there!

I picked up my copics again, it had been a while since I colored.   This stamps set is from CTMH, called Tea-riffic.  I have a tea loving friend and she'll appreciate it.

Through the holidays I saw so many red and blue combinations and I fell in love with it. I figured that this card would make a good try for those colors.  There was no saucer on the stamp image...but I think it needed something to even it out,s o I drew it in ---after all that coloring of the cups fortunately it worked out.

A Look Back

Hey there!

Thank you so very much for visiting me, leaving comments and allowing me to share my creations this year. I am grateful and thankful for your support.

I have made several very good blogging friends through this hobby over the years and I look forward to their fabulous creations in the year to come.

I decided to look back at the cards I made this year--175 of them and pick out my favorites.  As I picked some out...I did pretty well mailing out cards this year, all but one of those below was mailed out.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

CAS Mix UP Challenge

Hi there,

I've been entranced with the colored pencil on dark paper cards I've seen around blog land and most recently here at Betty's blog.  This card is for CAS Mix Up Challenge, a cas card with three elements.

 

My image and sentiment are both stamped and heat embossed, and my third element is the stitching around the main panel.  This was such fun I ended up with 3 cards, the blue and white are my favorites. I used silver ep for the white, gold for the red, and platinum for the blue.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy Birthday

Hi There-
This goes to my MIL, who loves pink. Since her birthday is in December I decided she needed some sweet flowers on her card.  This set is from AI's watercolor series.
