Over the hill?????

Hi All,
Today I'm sharing 2 cards made almost the same way...... Both for men, the hardest cards for me to make, so when I get something that works I though I'd go with it.
Here we go.........

Yep this is another sexy older man...... just look at the legs on this guy.... OMG.
Be still my heart, Let me get back to the post here....
This is Norm from Art Impressions (UMI1240)  I did my coloring with Zig's again and used the saying from CTMH called Just a Number Occasions (D1514).  Papers are just old stash trying to use things I have, don't you have piles of beautiful paper you got for something and have left over's..... will for me it's TIME to use this paper up.
Here's a close up of them,

and the other one......


and now for the insides....

Those #@&* BIRDS!!!

Hi Everyone!

I know it's been MONTHS since I posted but had family things to do... Will be trying to post at lest once a week again but can't make any promises..... 

For today's post I'm sharing my card for my Hubby's BD coming up in July.... 

We had a dock put in a few months ago and the birds have been sitting and pooping all over it... Will this will not do to have poop all over so it's been a war for my Hubby and so much FUN to watch.... This stamp set by Art Impressions called Hollis (UMYY1901) captured him completely and had to do something for him with it...

here we go.

Now is this not just the most pissed off Bird watcher you have ever seen.....?
I used Water color paper then embossed the image... did my coloring with the ZIG clean color real brush and some Ranger inks for the edges.... On his BiNocks I put some Glossy Accents.  The saying I made on my computer and used a die to cut it out.  Its pushed up in the center and taped flat on both ends.

Now for the inside.... O M G


I know this is what our birds are saying.... but all hubby can see is the poop.....
Yes these are the Tim Holtz Bird Crazy (CMS212) set... and I used my Zig's again to color them... the two sayings in the bubbles I made on my computer and cut them out with the Die set from Lawn Fawn called A Birdie Told Me (LF485)... love this die set and have used it many times...

Rodeo Girl

The day I ordered this stamp set from Stampendous called Rodeo Girl (CRW124) I  know I wanted to use a Wobbler on it..... never using a wobbler before I was not even sure how to stick it on but found several YouTube that solved that.
So here we go...

Here's the front view,,,, pretty cool ha? Love how it has some of the first real Cowgirls list all around her.

I did the coloring with the new ZIG Clean Color Real Brushs, still getting use to how these brushs work.  But this was a ruff sketch so was pretty easy to color.  

Here you can really see both horses.

and another view of the same.

Here's the inside.... 

I would love to know if you think this is a good way to use a wobbler?

And if you have used a wobbler before too?

Train Card

Today I'm show a card I copied from Jenny's blog "One Krafty Kat" 
I've had this stamp set by Stampin-up for years called Happiness is a Journey but always struggled on how to use it... always loved the train image but for some reason I always though there should be something more I can do with this.... 
So here's my take on Jenny's card.

here's my front view.... I used fun foam behind the main piece with the leaves on it and also behind the train...

I think you can see the domination better on this view... 

here's the inside, very simple...

Something a little different.

Hi Ladies...
Today I'm posting my first large card, it's a 5x7 size.  It take some getting use to all this extra space, but I think before I decide I'll have to make several more....
Here we go,

I can't take credit for this style or idea it was on  this post by Amazing Paper Grace back on July 14, 2015... I don't have access to ALL the BEAUTIFUL dies Becca dose so I did the best I could with the dies I had.  In her post she shows how to make the top hing out of the corner dies, so if you need that please take a look at Becca's post

 

For my card I used the corner die by Cherry Lynn Designs called Lace Corner B174.

The Beautiful flower stamp is a Flourishes called Wild Roses SS266, then I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 14 the largest one. and backed it with another Spellbinders Pendants Lattice S4-210.

The white bow is Hug Snug tape. 

The base of the card is from K&Company pack called Life's Journey.  It's two sided so I just used a single sheet. 

The inside is the other side of the K&Company paper and the sentiment is Fiskars from "Make a Wish Quotes Birthday".  Used the same Labels 14 die along with Labels 10 too. 

And that's it...

If you have any questions, let me know.
