alcohol ink

Congrats. You did it!

alcohol ink, Dull Glossy Paper, Gatefold Cards, Graduation

So I’ve been a little silent on the blog! We’ve been very busy catching up on some yard work. Kevin has a new job and he’s not working as many hours (the reason for the change was too many hours!) so we have been doing things around the property that we’ve been wanting to do. Our first project was a raspberry garden…

This was the start. At some point I will show you the finished! My sister called and asked me to make her some graduation cards and I went right to work 😉

I do find gatefold cards a challenge some times but this was left over from some make n take and it was the right color for the graduate school so I decided to work with it!

I hope this finds you enjoying summer!

Good Day! I started working on this card a long time ago and it’s been sitting on my desk with parts and pieces being put on it and being taken away. I started to do a graduation card with the Celebrate and then I stuck it on this card and really liked it! I think it might be much cuter in real life than in pictures!

I did leave the inside of the card blank which is a a little rare for me. Watch for this Celebrate stamp to continue to show up on cards!

One of a kind Day

2021 Releases, alcohol ink, Dull Glossy Paper, flowers, Friendship

Summer has arrived here in WI! In the form of hot and muggy but I’m not complaining. However, I did turn on the air conditioner! Lovely sweet card today using my four square Cutting Die!

I made this sweet card yesterday for a friend of mine and even already mailed it. One of the best things about being off the road…is all the cards I make actually go to people to enjoy instead of winding up in the booth!

Hello! I’ve been having some fun with pattern paper and my four square Cutting Die. Our weather is warming up. We are very anxious for summer or at least a warmer spring since it’s been so cold.

Snow! It has snowed most of the day! Ugh. It was pretty but not in April please! Ok – I’m still stuck on white on white cards – it kind of goes with the snow!

Out our front window. Too bad you can’t see all the flakes coming down! Matches my cards!

Sprinkles! Card – Bonus Post

alcohol ink, Birthday, Dull Glossy Paper

Here is a bonus post because we might have missed a few days this week. 😆 This background was created with alcohol inks and had been sitting in my paper bin for months and maybe years waiting for the right color combination. Glad to finally be able to use it!

Cupcake colored with copic markers.

Happy birthday with alcohol inks – March 24, 2020

alcohol ink, Birthday

For this card, the alcohol inks had some funky color combinations that came by accident. Maybe it is just me, but I like them! Wanted to add some more interest with the inside insert so added the candles and the wish big stamped on a kraft sticker.

Hope everyone is doing well! Glad for technology to stay in touch with loved ones. Anyone getting creative with the food in their pantry? Recipe ideas welcome!
