Less is More - Winter Flora

Finally....it is cooling down a bit.  We've had a bit of a heat wave this week...but not too bad as it does cool down overnight.  Though, I'm ready for the fall weather.

We have another challenge starting today at Less is More.  Our theme for this challenge is Winter Flora---and it is a one layer card.  Here's my take on the challenge...

I just love the Bella images and this one is no exception.  I colored this little cutie pie with Copic markers.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Hard to go wrong with a Stamping Bella image.  Here is sweet little Edna...she cleans just like me :)

I used this fun Stamping Bella image, as both of these cutie's are searching the Horizon!  I simply stamped the image and used my Copic markers to color them in.  Super fun!

Look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Addicted to CAS - Humor

It's lining up to be a busy weekend...but am able to fit in a bit of fun with tennis, the dog and the husband.  All is good!

Also, we have another challenge starting over at Addicted to CAS.  I'm hosting this one and I selected Humor for the theme.  I have so many fun cards to choose from, but ended up settling on this one.  Here's what I came up with...

I just love these Odd Ball images from Stamping Bella.  She has the best attitude, and she makes me laugh.

A simple stamp of the image along with my Copic markers quickly makes this CAS card.

Addicted to CAS - Green

What a beautiful day...a bit cold to start off the morning walk, but it quickly warmed after a round of tennis!  Then lunch at home with the hubby---after a bit of yard work!


We have another challenge starting today at Addicted to CAS.  The theme for this week is Green. I went a little different here and focused my green on this card...I mean, who won't want green hair!

Another beautiful week gone by...where has the summer gone...it's already September.


We have another challenge starting today at Addicted to CAS!  Our theme for this week is Apples.  A tricky challenge for me as I searched through all of my stamps and found only two apple stamps.  I've used one for this card...can you find it!!

Another sweet Stamping Bella stamp.  Just love these!

I simply colored this with my Copics and done.  Really a very quick and easy card.  My sentiment is from Lawn Fawn.

We have another challenge starting over at Addicted to CAS!  Our theme for this challenge is Sweets!  Certainly a perfect theme for this time of the year!  Here's my take on the challenge. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

I simply stamped this Stamping Bella image on white card stock and colored it with my copic markers.  I then decided to use this fun scallop die cut for a bit of extra interest.  I colored the scalloped portion with my copic markers in a color that matches the main image.

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

CAS on Friday - Halloween

Can you believe it...it is already October...another year end within grasp!

We have another challenge starting today at CAS on Friday!  The theme for this challenge is Fall or Halloween.  And while I'm not a bit fan of Halloween, except for giving out treats to the little ones, I love making Halloween cards.  I never would have thought of sending out Halloween cards...but the images are just too cute to pass up!

Here's my take on the challenge...

For this card, I stamped my image from Stamping Bella.  I then colored it with Copics.  I then used my My Favorite Things die cut to cut out the speech bubble and heat embossed the sentiment.  All in all a pretty quick card!

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

We have another challenge starting over a Less is More!  Our challenge for this week is Take Flight.  I had several ideas for this one, but in the end, I decided to go with this card.  Here's my take on the challenge...




This was a fun card to make...lots of coloring which I like.  I stamped the main image and colored it with Copic Markers.  I then added the sentiment.  I felt a bit too empty so I added the skyline on the bottom. Super fun to make!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
