Poppies.....

poppy card
I love these Hero Arts Poppies. I had originally made this card for the Online Card Camp that Kristina Werner and Jennifer McGuire had done. I never got around to photographing it or posting any of my cards due to my surgery so I wanted make sure to get them up now.

I started by using Versamark on my stamp and then embossing it white. I used regular markers to color them in. I used the technique that Jen showed to blend regular markers instead of using Copics. The girl is uber creative and you really should go to Summer Card Camp to learn all the techniques they taught. Totally inspiring. I had bought my son a really nice marker set a while back, it had amazing colors in it and I find myself reaching for them often.

I trimmed down some of American Crafts papers and then attached with a bee button and some twine to finish it off. I haven't added a greeting to it yet though as I haven't liked anything I have tried. I'll keep at it and I am sure it will have a greeting soon.

Tuesday Trigger.....



birthday 2

close up

I know I said I wasn't going to post but I HAD to do this Tuesday Trigger. These colors are my absolute favorite colors together when you go pastel. I will link everything later....my knee is killing me from being down for so long and I have to wrap it before bed!

I hope it looks ok on your screen. I hate taking pictures in the middle of the night.

See you soon....make sure you go to Moxie Fab and check all that talent! ;)

Hi everyone.....

I am recovering from knee surgery. I had a torn meniscus and it was done this past Wednesday. I am creating...I just can't take pictures quite yet. I promise I have so much to share when I get back. Until then keep on creating. :)

Cheers!
