Less is More - Tropical Fruit

We are on the tail end of a heat wave and I have to say I'm happy to have it come to an end.  Being outside is so fun, but not when it is too hot!  Anywho...lots of great tennis this week and some time in the studio.

Don't forget to check out my latest Giveaway...here!

We have another challenge starting today at Less is More.  Our theme for this challenge is Tropical Fruit Colors.  I have no fruit stamps which would have been fun to use for this challenge! However, I do have lots of drink stamps---not sure what that says about me...but decided to focus on tropical fruit drinks.  Here's my take on the challenge...





This is a one layer card.  A simple card with a bit of simple masking. Coloring with Copics and done!






Here's a bit of a close up!  Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Addicted to CAS - One Layer Card


Another beautiful week! The husband is feeling better this week, so we are off to play tennis!  Nothing better than a day on the court with the husband!

I have a Giveaway going on.  If you are interested, check it out here!

We have another challenge starting today at Addicted to CAS!  The theme for this week is One Layer Card.  My favorite!  Here's what I came up with...






I stamped this image and colored it with my Copics.  These Stamping Bella images are so fun to color and I find that everyone seems to love receiving these cards.

Just to add a bit of sparkle, I added a few stars at the end as a finishing touch.



Here's a bit of a close up of the card.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

CAS on Friday - Exotic

It has been a beautiful week.  Not too hot, but I hear the heat wave is coming in.  I'm hoping the husband will be feeling a bit better in a little while so we can go play some tennis!  I have missed his hard hitting :)

I have a Giveaway going on.  If you are interested, check it out here!

We have another challenge starting today at CAS on Friday.  Our theme for this week is Exotic!  I wanted to do something a little different, so I looked up this word and found that is means foreign, and colorful.  And came up with this card...




I stamped and masked a few of these monsters and colored them with Copics.  I love color, so this was a super fun card to make.  The images are easy to color, so it didn't take much time at all.


Here's a close up of the card. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Addicted to CAS - Wheels


Another beautiful summer week!  Lots of sun, warm weather and tennis with the husband.  The highlight of my week!

I have another Giveaway going on...check it out here!

We have another challenge starting today at Addicted to CAS.  Our theme for this week is wheels! How fun is that.  Immediately, I knew that I wanted to go with a bicycling card for all those bike riders in the family! Here's my take on the challenge.





This was a fun card to make.  I pulled out my stencil and embossed the bikes on the dark card stock.  I then added a little bit of red card stock to the bottom.  Stamped the sentiment and the star and done! Really a quick and simple card!





Here's a bit of a close up of the card. No dimension, so super easy to send through the mail!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!







Less is More - No Stamps

Another beautiful summer day...enjoying the ability to play tennis with the husband!

I have another Giveaway going on...check it out here!

We have another challenge starting over at Less is More!  Our theme for this week is No Stamps...basically use any other supply you have, just no stamps.  Here's my take on the challenge...


My friend requested that I make this card for her husband's upcoming birthday...so I pulled out some masculine color stock and this is what I came up with.

Pretty simple card.  I used an embossing folder and some dies and was able to make this card quickly.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

CAS on Friday - Primary Colors

Hope all our US friends are recovering from a festive Independence Day Celebration.  Nice time to hang out and relax.

My first, of many, giveaways is going on now...if you haven't entered you still have time.  More details can be found here!

Another challenge starting today over at CAS on Friday.  Our theme for this challenge is Primary Colors.  Pull out your red, yellow and blue.  Here's my take for the challenge...


This was a fun card to make as it has a lot of coloring...which is my favorite!  I simply stamped this image and colored it with copic markers.  I then cut the bubble and stamped the sentiment.

It still looked a bit empty so I added a few silver stars.

All in all, pretty quick card!

Here's a bit of a close up of the card.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
