Splashes of Watercolor

I love playing along with the Splitcoaststampers daily challenges, and the Featured Stamper challenge is one of my favorites!  Today’s spotlight is on jaydekay.  She’s got some really gorgeous cards in her gallery!  Here’s her Riley Driving card that I chose to case.  I used the same layout and the same Nestabilities that she did, […]

OMG!!!  I’ve been stalking the 2 Sketches 4 You blog for a while and finally decided to try the sketch last week.  I was chosen as one of the week’s Fab 5!  Check it out here! This is the card I entered. Thank you for choosing my card, Kazan and Laura!!! ————————–

  I just found out today that a friend of mine (a kayaking buddy) had hip replacement surgery this week!  Owie!!  So I took time out from my cleaning (you know I really had to PULL myself away from that!) to make her a quick card. I colored the bandaid with Prismacolor pencils.  There are […]

There’s lots of sparkle on this card!  I’m home from work today, so I decided to play along with the Technique Lovers Challenge on Splitcoast.  Today’s challenge (TLC202) is to create a background using tacky tape and glitter.  Well I got started, then completely veered off course.  At least I ended up with a Valentine’s […]

I absolutely could not let today’s Featured Stamper challenge get by without playing along.  One of my all-time favorite stamping idols is being featured…the one and only Her Royal Rubberness, Julie Ebersole.  Woo hoo!  I adore her and her creativity!  Check out her gallery at Splitcoast and play along if you have time! Here’s Julie’s […]

  I hope you all have started the new year off right by relaxing and enjoying all your blessings!  That’s what I’ve been doing today. This year I’m determined to create enough birthday (and other) cards for a stash so that I’m not always rushing at the last minute to whip one together just in […]
