Floral Friday Paint Brush card


This is a simple card but it did take a while to arrange the flowers. I tried to follow the example on the back of the package. I did silver paper for the top of the paint brush. I think that’s what they look like. The burgundy paper is from my stash, and the patterned paper is by Studio G. Thanks for looking. I hope there’s something in your day that makes you smile.

Manly Monday E=Mc2 Graduation card



This is a Craft Roulette card episode #259. The parameters were: a card with two folds, Math, and markers. The color parameter was Jelly beans. The colors are too loose meaning you could use any colors. So, a Zoom group and I pull a card out of the Color Cube and make that the color parameter. I like more of a challenge. Idk. 
My card is a matchbox card. The background, E=Mc squared stamp is by Deep Red Stamps. I stamped it with black ink and blended my background with distress oxides. The grad cap was made with my Cricut. The sentiment die is by Spellbinders, and the sentiment is from Stamps of Life. The ribbon is from Michael's. I colored the white line in the middle with a Copic marker.
Thanks for stopping by.

Ice Cream 🍦 cards



The background stamp is by Fun Stampers Journey. I inked it in separate colors and rolled the rubber stamp in all different areas. I then sprayed it with Glimmer Mist. 
The ice cream stamp is by Avery Elle. I colored it in with Copic markers before cutting the image out very close to the edge. I took a marker around the edges to give it shape. 
The ribbon is by Stampin Up. The oval die cut is by Spellbinders. The sentiment is by Stampendous. 

Second card is a fun fold that gave me a hard time. I put things on up side down…twice. 

Moving on. The pink patterned paper is a recycled card by American Greetings. The ice cream was created in the same way as the first card. The die cut is also by Spellbinders but I inked the paper while it was in the die. The sent is from the same stamp set Avery Elle. Thanks for looking. HAGD!
