Harv

First I want to Thank all of you that stop by to visit and leave comments... It's so nice to know people are out there watching :)

Todays card is a FUN guy card.... or he could be used for any Celabration. 
It's "Harv" by Art Impression, take a look and see what you think.....
Is he not just a Hoot!!!! For the border around the Wonky Rectangle I created a frame using stripped paper.  Saw this on Jenny Gropp's blog she even did a qucik How-to-viedo.  It's such a cute idea, I had to use it.  Now for Harv, he was So much FUN to color and the ballowns I used from another AI stamp set called 29 Again.

Here's a close up of the ballowns with the strings, you may not be able to tell but there's  Glossy Accents on them too....Just look at the face... he is just so cute!




































and the inside... I used a pice of the stripped paper that I used for the frame for the front. The saying is a AI stamp too...

Winter Berries Samples ?

Hi All,
WOYWW  and I have a question for you today.
I was trying something new with this stamp set.... I've seen so many gals stamping white  on dark papers and it always looks to pretty so I tried it.... tell me what you think.
The one on the right I stamped it with CTMH White Daisy pigment ink and used Stampendous! Star Dust Transparent embossing power... I over heated it in the middle where the berry's are so the white and sparkle didn't show up very will but it did on the ends....
And the one on the left I stamped it with CTMH White Daisy pigment ink and used White embossing power.  it's a real stark white and not sure if I like that.... 
What do you think??
Any advise is welcome!

Dustin's TWO

No it's not Dustin's BD, I'm just way early....... this is for his BD in December.....But I found this CUTE little boy blowing bubbles and it looked just like him.  So I had to get it and made his card right away. 
I so enjoyed coloring him too... he really does look like little Dustin..
 
Here's a close up of the layers and the bubbles, I put 2 layers of Glossy accents on the big bubbles and there real deep. 

And here's the inside,  I reused the same papers and die cut some clouds...
It was really very simple, but it looks very nice.
 
Will that's it for today... What do you think?

WOYWW

(What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday)

Every Wednesday Julie Dunnit hosts a gathering of crafters from all over the world to share what they are working on with a pic of our play area.  It's really fun to see all the different things people are working on, and I must say I've meet some very interesting people from Julie's site.
Thanks Julie!!!!!!

Before I show you mine, I'd like to thank you for stopping by my place and visiting! I so enjoy reading your comments and encouragement!
 
 Well here we are... right in the middle of things.  I've been working on some coloring and still have a few more to do.  I just finished putting the second coat of Glossy Accents on the little boys bubbles.  I have 2 more of him stamped and plan to make a red head and a brunette.  Also have 2 more of the blow fish to color, I know I'm going to make one pink and we'll just have to wing the last one.  

OK,,, that's it. Now I'm off to do some visiting. See Ya :)

1st Christmas Balls card

Will here's my first card using the Christmas balls I posted on Wednesday. 
I really like how it turned out, but I must say it took me about an hour to get the idea moving in my head. 
Here a close up.... it show all the different things I used.  The main Christmas ball was stamped with Versa and then embosed with Stardust Transparent, the sparkle shows up nicely here, then I placed it into the Grace's Frame embossing folder, then I cut that out close the the frame and rounded the corners.  The next layer was made with Gold poster board I got at Hobby Lobby and cut it down into usuable pices, here I used Spellbinder die called A2 Polka Dots/S5-133. The ribbon and bow were just some I had already.  

Here's the whole front....... it's quit pretty in person, I don't think it shows thru here.


On the inside I used the left over pice of gold from the front and then used Grace's Frame again,  I tryed to edge it with gold but it did not look right so I put some black over it and will that's with I got, think I'll leve it alone next time. The verse is from a Flourishes set called Winter Berries/SS255, and No your not seeing doubble, I stamped it twice. Dont think I'll do that again either.....the first time I used Encore metallic silver and did't show I went over it with Grey Flannel.

So what do you think?

Christmas Balls.....

Today I'm trying different heat embossing out on this Judi-Kins / Enameled Christmas - 2884 G.
The one on the left is stamped with Versa and embossed with Jiudi Martallic Gold.  This gold is a nice heave gold look, very rich looking.
Center was also stamped with Versa and embossed with Stardust Transparent.  Now this one is more a tone on tone with sparkles in it, I like this one because it's a little sidle.
On the right was stamped with White Daisy and embossed with winter wonderland Opazue. I like this one too, the white has a sparkle in it too.
I don't think the sparkles are showing up in the photo thow.


Which one do you like???
