Cabin

I'm trying to use some of my stamps that I have never used before. Some days I buy quicker than I have time to use them. :)
This is another stubby stampers stamp http://www.stubbystampers.com/shopping/stamps/scenes.htm The image appears to be a winter scene but I made it into a spring or summer as I am tired of winter. I love winter but it is time for it to go.  The image is colored with copics. The moon has clear wink of Stella on it and the stars are done with yellow stickles. I wrote the word blessings by had using a white pen. I added a bit of white pen to the roof as well and then colored it over again with Y00. 
I enjoy reading your comments.

Make a Wish

I have been working on some calendars but haven't finished them so haven't posted in a while. On facebook I was challenged to do 5 cards in 5 days so here is the first.

The stamp is from Cat's Meow that is no longer in existence :(. I stamped it on a basic grey tag. The flower has stickles on it. The flag is done with  a die cut - can't remember which company - then I wrote happy birthday on it. I put a bead in the middle of the tag hole The little dodad by the bow is from a broken piece of jewelry. 
Hopefully, I'll see you tomorrow.

Edwin Seeking Polar Bears

It's been a while since I created much. December flew by. I did make a few new Christmas cards but I needed to get them out so quickly I didn't even take any pictures. Bad me, I know. However, it is a new year and time to make cards again. 
My son's birthday is tomorrow so this card is for him. He always liked polar bears and these bears from Magnolia are just too cute. David is a ranger at a Boy Scout camp so this mini Edwin made me think of him. Everything is colored with copics. The dp is from basic grey. Most of the edges are roughed up with a distressing tool. The snow is Scribbles iridescent white. The wooden ornaments are from Target. The snowflakes have stardust stickles on them. The trees were colored with green a Marvy inkpad and have the Scribbles applied. I added a ribbon and bow to complete the card. 
Hope you like your card, David, and Happy Birthday.

Mustache Edwin

I had to make this card for my son-in-law. He is always holding his finger up to my granddaughter's upper lip and saying "I mustache you a question".


Oh dear! I just realized I misspelled mustache. I am so bad at proofing. Wait I just went back and my spell check in word doesn't seem to care whether it is mou or mu. I'm totally confused. The sentiment I did on the computer with different fonts.
Edwin is colored with copics. The dp is done with shaving cream and ink. The mustaches or moustaches are a die cut from memory box. The black dots are nail head stickers. The wide ribbon is black organza and the narrower ribbon is from Target's One Spot.
I moustache you a question: How do you spell mustache. LOL

Fall House Mouse

I've been missing in action but I have been creating. I hope to share some of the many creations I've been doing soon.  Here is one:
This was for a challenge on my house mouse group to use a different shaped card than the usual        5 1/2" x 4 1/4" card. I used a scalloped DCWV 8" square paper and folded it in half. The second layer was cut down from the same 8" paper (only the reddish color) The dots in the scallops are nail head stickers. The red dots in the corners of the image are red rhinestones. The image is colored with copics. The flower is a prima flower colored with copics with a brad in the center. The bow is tied with a piece of string. Then there is a piece of lace under the bow. On the steam I put some stickles.
There it is! Enjoy your hot chocolate, coffee or tea in this cooler weather.
