Smile! Camera stamp card

The camera stamp is by Just Rite stamps. I colored it in with Copic markers. Then I created the background using an old stamp set by Stampin Up. The pink ink is by Stampin Up and the green and blue ink pad is by Hero Arts.
I cleaned the smile stamp after using it with the pink ink. It wasn't good enough because when I pushed the stamp down onto the blue and green ink pad, remnants of the pink ink ruined my ink pad. I was so disappointed. But paper always has two sides. I flipped it over and made my background all pretty.
Thanks for looking.

Manly Monday Beach Scene Card

The car stamp is by Tim Holtz in brown chalk marker, that I regret giving them to my niece.the die cut was bought on eBay.



The baby is interested in what is Mom and Dad doing. Details on the guy/girl panel: they are on a die cut that resembles a rope net or mermaid tail scales. The chair is by Gina Marie and the flip flops were drawn by my husband. Y


Then you open the next panel and you can see the parts and pieces that I used to make this  card. The seashell die cut is by Creative Expression (i think). I used a post note to ask off the different shelves and seaweed with I sprayed it with glimmer Mist by Tattered Angels. Same chair and shoes but the sunglasses are Stampin Up

This card was made for Craft Roulette #253

Card with 3 folds, sweater colors, footwear for an element, and Post it for Random. It’s a Gatefold card with an extra hinge. All of the papers are by Carta Bella. Other
