Sponged Sunset

Hi everyone!!  The other day I was sitting at my desk and saw my Nature Silhouettes set from Sweet n Sassy stamps.  I've always wanted to make a pretty sunset and have practiced from time to time.  I'm pretty happy with how this sunset turned out!!  I think this card would be good for both a male or female.  I thought about putting a sentiment on but decided against it, I think I will hold off until I know the occasion!

I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!!

Supplies:

Stamps:  Sweet n Sassy Nature Silhouettes

Winter Wonderland

Hi everyone!!  I pulled out an old favorite of mine, Bundled up Mike from Whipper Snapper.  Isn't he just adorable?!  I'm not sure about where you are but here in Minnesota it is a bit chilly so we need to be sure to have our hat and scarf!!  I wanted to frame this image so I used my Spellbinders Matting Basics A & B, those make it so fast and easy!!  I recently purchased Stampendous Shaved Ice that I added under Mike and randomly around him.  I love the different colors you get and I think it is so much fun!!

What's on your Desk

Hi everyone!!!  This month the Card Crafty Gallery team was challenged to a "What's on your Desk" challenge.  Well my desk is a complete disaster but I managed to dig through what was on there to make a card!!  How about that?!!  If you saw my desk, that in of itself was a challenge!  ;)  I still had the mask I made for Gina's World Card Making day challenge.  I really like the look and of course this gorgeous tree from Merry Tree, love the font of the sentiment too!!  I started off by sponging Memento Pear Tart ink, then stamped the tree with Memento Northern Pine and the star with Memento Dandelion ink.  I had my Ginger Ale Smooch Spritz sitting there so I thought it might be fun to spray some of that on my card while the mask was still on.  It kind of has the look of falling snow!!  After removing the mask I stamped the sentiment and added a little rhinestone to the dot on the "i".

Thanks so much for stopping by!!!
