Summertime Fun

I did a challenge this week! The challenge was to use the colors...Orange, sunshine yellow and kiwi green. These ice cream girls seemed to fit in perfect with the color scheme. The glitter paper from Doodlebug and Spica glitter pens from Copic add some bling to the card. With these Inky Antic stamps the images are very detailed. The Spicas can color in a small area easily and also adds some sparkle!! The flowers are from Prima. Use colored flowers to compliment the card. I used a flower in the center of the larger flower creating a new look entirely. Hope this gets your creative juices flowing!! Maybe you can try the challenge too!

Is Spring Here?

The weather feels great and I am in a spring mood today! This little gal is perfect with here bright colors and big smile. The papers are from Doodlebug...fun, fun, fun. The stamp is from Whippersnapper and colored with the bright copic markers. Add a little glitter flower and a pearl for the center, lime green ribbon from Creative Impressions and the card is complete. Hope this brightens your day!

Celebrate Life!

Hee hee! I thought you needed to see another one of these sweeties!

I colored her with Copics and the Spica Glitter Pens. Glitter paper is by Doodlebug.

Hint: Use glue dots to attach your image to glitter paper if your normal adhesive won't stick.

Flowers are by Prima, tag is by Making Memories.

Hint: Use wide ricrac to *frame* your image for a fun look. ~michelle~

HEY!

Just wanted you to see this cutie pie! She's from Art Impressions and is all dolled up in Copics! Doodling frames her quite nicely....and I'm leaving the sentiment up to you!! This card has lots of bling with her layered on the glitter paper! Enjoy!! ~michelle~

Bright and Sunny!

With this card I am posting the last TWO of the images for the Beach Girls Collection from Inky Antics. Image colored with Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol. Lots of Circles on this one imitate the volleyball. The card base has been embossed with Cuttlebug's Circle Embossing Folder. The designer paper from WeR Memory Keepers has been faux stitched over some glittery circle punched pieces from Doodlebug's glitter paper. Finally the eyelet that holds the tag on the card.
I hope you've enjoyed taking a peek at this collection. I'd love to hear which image(s) is your favorite! ~michelle~

Have A Splashin' Great Day!

TWO more images from Inky Antic's new release! This card base is the beautifully blingy Doodlebug Glitter paper. I chose it for a wet and watery look. Image is colored with Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol. I doodled around the edge of the image. A gem dresses up a simple circle punched from the WeR Memory Keepers Designer Paper.

A tip: Use a strip of cardstock slightly wider than a narrow ribbon or piece of ricrac for the fun look of a wider ribbon. An easy way to coordinate ribbons and designer papers! ~michelle~

Hope Your Day Is Bright And Sunny!

This card gives me goosebumps today!! Too bad the warm weather didn't stick around a bit longer!! I did wear my flip flops to school the other day....with my coat!

TWO more new images from Inky Antics. Designer paper is from WeR Memory Keepers. I rand the Doodlebug glitter paper through the Cuttlebug Swirls embossing folder to resemble waves.

Tip: Use a folded circle punched piece and a staple for a fun ribbon embellishment!

You're Sun-sational!

I'm taking you on a journey through this stamp collection by Inky Antics! Here are TWO more new images that were just released. Designer paper is by WeR Memory Keepers, and has been faux stitched. Image is colored with Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol. The glitter paper is by Doodlebug and was layered on brown cardstock that was punched with a large scalloped oval punch by Marvy-Uchida. I layered narrow ricrac over wider ribbon to mimic the waves!
Record-breaking weather here today....very warm for February....feels like summer after our very cold January! Lovin' it! ~michelle~

Summer Fun!

Ok...I know it's still freezing....but I'm going to show one more of these cards! I'll get back to more seasonal stuff....I'm just sick of freezing and am trying to think some warm thoughts here!!Here are TWO more of the new Inky Antics images colored in Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol. I love the Doodlebug Glitter paper...just a little bit adds a punch of bling....bling that is *flat* and requires no extra postage to mail!! I used some faux stitching to *sew* her little list to the card. In hind sight I should have checked all of them off but *YOU* on the list! Next time I guess!

Just Add Water!

Here is another Inky Antics card using THREE of their new images! The image is colored with Prismacolor pencils and gamsol. The glitter paper is by Doodlebug and Heidi has it in several colors I believe. On this card I cut it as a frame to resemble the glittering swimming pool water. Another Prima flower *splash*, piercing and faux stitching finish off this card. The designer paper is from WeR Memory Keepers. ......Summer's coming!! ~michelle~
