One Layer Card - Coloring

Wow, can't believe it is already September.  This year is flying by....

Remember, I have a giveaway happening now---check it out here!

We have another challenge over at Less is More and our theme for this challenge is a One Layer Card and Coloring.  You can use markers, colored pencils or any coloring medium.  Here's my take on the challenge, looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

I found this cute little stamp and just love it.  This is the perfect birthday card for one of my friends!  I used copic markers to color this sweet beauty.

After stamping the sentiment, I added a few little stars for some shimmer!

CAS on Friday - Color Me Pretty

The heat wave is slowly receding.  I'm looking forward a bit more normal September weather!

Remember, I have a giveaway happening now---check it out here!

We have another challenge starting today over at CAS on Friday.  The theme for this challenge is Color Me Pretty.  You can use markers, colored pencils or another other coloring medium you can think of.  Here's my take on the challenge.

I used this stamp from Art Impressions.  I just love this sassy lady...she is so funny!

I colored her using copic markers. Stamped my sentiment and used the inlaid die technique to add to the card for more easy mailing.

I thought it needed a bit something extra, so I added my little stars....yup, been adding those quite a bit!

Addicted to CAS - Apples

For all of my US friends...welcome to the long weekend. Hope everyone has some fun plans!

Remember, I have a giveaway happening now---check it out here!

We have another challenge starting today at Addicted to CAS!  Our theme for this challenge is Apples!  What a terrific theme as the school year begins!  Not having any young ones at home anymore...here's my take on the theme.






I started by stamping my little mouse and the basket of apples.  I then colored them with Copic Markers.  I decided to add a tone on tone sentiment on some green paper.  I used the inlaid die technique to put the pieces together.  Then a final touch added the sentiment!

Here's a close up of the card.  You can see it is flat for easy mailing...love that inlaid die technique!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Less is More - Royal Blue & Lime Green

Getting ready for the Labor Day weekend...boy did the summer just fly by!  Well the good news, is that the summer weather will likely linger for another few weeks!

Remember, I have a giveaway happening now---check it out here!

We have another challenge starting today at Less is More! Our theme for this challenge is Royal Blue & Lime Green. I really love these colors together.  Here's my take on the challenge...

This is a quick card...I simply stamped my snow peeps and colored them with Copic Markers.  I then add some foam tape for dimension and added them to my card base.  I used a few of my rectangles to create this inlaid die technique to add the frame.  Stamped the sentiment and done!

Here's a close up of the card. You can see the dimension of the snow peeps against the flat card base!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Less is More - Real Objects

Getting ready to head off to a tennis tournament!  Looking forward to a day of lots of tennis! Hope it doesn't get too hot!

We have another challenge starting today over at Less is More!  Our theme for this challenge is Real Objects!  Just add an object to your card...but remember to still keep it CAS!

Here's my take on the challenge...

I love this little bunny!  After stamping him out and coloring him with copics, I added a bit of foam tape.

I sponged a bit of distress ink on this card base and added a bit of water to give it some slight texture.  I added the sentiment and gave it a bit of dimension with foam tape.

My real object is the stars I added around the bunny!

Here's a close up of my card!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

CAS on Friday - One Layer Card

Well the summer is flying by...seems that the kids are back in school!  Thus, we have more opportunity to get tennis courts :)

We have another challenge starting at CAS on Friday!  Our theme for this challenge is one of my favorites...a One Layer Challenge.  I really do like these cards, so challenging.  Here's my take on the challenge.


I used this Stamping Bella image and colored it with Copics.  I added the sentiment and done!

For me the coloring is relaxing, so these one layer cards are just perfect for me to relax and color away!

Here's a close up of the card.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
