INCREDIBLY SEXY PEOPLE...

I needed a fun birthday card for my brother-in-law. We always enjoy giving him a good ribbing... I saw this sentiment on a card here on SCS and scribbled it down... I printed the 'text' out on my computer..
Inside reads: 'Merry Christmas'...
I used the MOJO91 sketch for the layout.
Thanks for looking!

QKD WEDNESDAY BLOG HOP...

Welcome to the Wednesday QKD Blog Hop! This week we are featuring painting! You should be arriving from Penny's Blog. This is the last blog of the hop, to start at the beginning of the hop, click Here.

One of the reasons I enjoy stamping so much, is that I get to paint. I love to paint. Before I was introduced to stamping, I spent most of my time painting.. on wood, walls, stools, etc.. I love that I can use my aquapainter and inks to paint any lineart image, and these images from the Fantasy Art line at Queen Kat Designs are perfect for just that. I made this card with the newly released Fantasy Palm. This stamp is currently 35% OFF!! I love this stamp! I stamped the image twice: once on my card, then again on scrap paper. I cut out the fronds and poped them up. The image is colored with my aquapainter and re-inkers!! The sentiment is handwritten then punched out with an oval punch. What do you think?
Thanks for hopping by!

I hope you enjoyed our Royal Wednesday Blog hop and will be inspired to try your hand at painting . Please join us again next week..

Until then... Aloha!

CHUNKY DUNKIN'

I made this for Friday's Limited Supply Challenge: Water + Sand = Follow the List... I have quite a few of these fun images from Art Impressions, so it was hard to pick which one to use today. I love this funny lady...and I even put some real sand on my card.. I also used the Mojo Monday Sketch for my layout.

Have a great day and thanks for looking!

LOVELY CRINKLED FLOWERS

Hooray! My box of new SU! goodies arrived!! And boy have I been itching to dig into them.I LOVE today's WT Challenge!! What a great way to show-off some of the new dsp! I used the dsp from the Hostess Level 3 Bundle Pack. I have to tell ya... this is a wonderful dsp pack. I also used the sentiment from the stamp set that came with it. I decided to use the DDC Sketch for a 4x6 frame I bought from the dollar store.

Welcome to the Wednesday QKD Blog Hop! This week we are featuring SUMMERTIME FUN!! You should be arriving from the Whimsical Ink Sorority blog. If you just happened upon my blog and would like to start at the beginning of the hop, then click Here to start at the beginning.

For me, nothing says Summertime more than vacation. And I love to vacation at the beach. For me it is the most relaxing place. I made this card with the newly released Fantasy Palm. This stamp is currently 40% OFF making it only $1.79!! I love this stamp! I stamped the image twice on my card, then again twice on scrap paper. I cut out the fronds and poped them up. The image is colored with my aquapainter and re-inkers!! I made my own hammock by cutting out some dsp and attaching it between my plam trees. Next I sponged all around the imaged in baja breeze ink. And of course I had to add sand..

What do you think??

I decided to share this card that I made with a new mermaid from the Whimsical Ink line at QKD. Meet Pearl. Isn't she beautiful! I love this new image. She is ready for the Masquerade Ball and is adorned with lovely pearls. I used my aqua painter to color the image, then went over the lines with my sakura glitter pen to add some sparkle.
