Spring with Crackerbox Palace

I am honored to be a guest designer for Quirky Crafts. Please join us in the challenge to use some pretty spring colors as shown, or lots of flowers. I have selected to use the suggested colors, with a few flowers as well on my card featuring digital art from Crackerbox Palace. I created a swing card so am showing the card closed and open. The card was cut with a Square Flip-Its die from Sizzix.

Clean and Simple Peek-A-Boo Card

Clean and Simple, that's the twist this week over at The Outlawz' Twisted Thursday. Our sponsor is Besties Digi Stamps by Sherri Baldi, and I just love them.This is image 039 and I love how you see part of the image with the card closed and then the rest when you open it up.

Copic Colors Used

I used some Distressed Inks in Mowed Lawn and Broken China on the top of the card and then made a matching little sentiment banner.

Thank you for stopping by and taking a look. I love reading your comments!

Spring Flowers Step Card

Bestie with Punches

This week, the twist for Twisted Thursday at The Outlawz is to use punches. I do have a few punches but don't think to add the often, so this was a nice push to do so. The image is from My Besties image #097 that I colored with my Spectrum Noir markers. The border punch is from Martha Stewart and the little butterfly punch is from Recollections.

Young Gardner Gate Folded Card

I am honored to have been selected as a guest designer for Through the Craft Room Door this week. If you have never checked out this site, please do. You'll find lots of talented and friendly people.
This image is from Just Inked and called Young gardener. The card uses a gate fold. I used my Copic markers and added some clear, silver, and gold Wink of Stella for some bling.

Freddie the Frog with a Teabag Folded Sun

The Outlawz has a monthly freebie/progressive challenge. This month, the free image is Freddie the Frog from Encino Stamps. Isn't he just a cutie? First, I fussy cut him, made his lily pad and popped them with foam tape. That bright sunshine is my first try at Teabag folding. I added a bright jewel to its center. The fly is a button that I sprayed with my Copic marker to make it darker. The sky paper is white cardstock embossed with the clouds and then gone over with Distress inks.

Thanks for stopping by!
