Hello

Happy Saturday friends.  I just got home from a wonderful pancake breakfast sponsored by our local chapter of CMA (Christian Motorcycle Association).  My FIL is a member and my husband and I will be members soon.  It was all you could eat pancakes, sausage, eggs and the best home fries I have ever eaten.  Thanks CMA..

So, on the card for today.  I used the Kenny K image, All That. I decided on a color scheme of pink, green and brown.

I made this into an easel card but did it a little different.  I trimmed 1/2" off of each side of the front. When you lay it down, you can see the DP on the inside just a bit.  I didn't get a picture of it closed because the centers of the flowers were still wet.

This is my first card for the new DT that I was selected for..The Outlawz Paper Ala Mode challenge.  Thanks so much Colleen for choosing me to be on your wonderful DT.   Our challenges post every Saturday on The Outlawz and our challenge for this week is an Anything Goes Challenge.

To begin, I printed off the image on Neenah white card stock and colored her with Spectrum Noir and Chromatix Pens.  I trimmed down the image and matted it onto  Old Olive (SU), Pink (HOTP) and Chocolate Chip (SU) mats.  All of the DP, flowers, and ribbon came from my stash so I'm not sure who the designers are.  I had this cute wooden tag in my stash from my friend, Jan, so I decided to stamp the word HELLO in Stazon Jet Black ink and add it to the card.

I hope you enjoyed your visit today.  Have a wonderful Saturday and God bless y'all.

Goth Bride

Hi there peeps.  This is my last post for the night.  I was kind of out of my element with this card.  It is the first card I am entering into a new challenge site, Haunted Design House.  The last few challenges were all about Edgar Allen Poe and Guardians and I wasn't too sure what to do with those, but I think I rocked this challenge.

Yep, it's a little different than most of my cards, ain't it?  I kinda like it though.  I used an image from Delicious Doodles called Gothic Bride.  I used a variety of markers to add color to this image: Copics, Spectrum Noir and ShinHan.  I also used some Glitter Gel pens to add sparkle.  I used black and burgundy card stocks from Bazzill and DP from DCWV and K and CO.  The flourishes, flowers, lace and die cut are from my stash.  I added some Ruby Slipper Stickles to the flowers for some added bling.

Even though this is a little bit different from my norm, I hope y'all liked it.  Thanks for hanging with me through these last few cards.  Have a great night.  God bless y'all.

Key to My Heart

Hello again y'all.  Thanks for stopping in.  The card I have for you today was fun to make.  I got in there and got my hands all inky.  I enjoyed making this one.

I started out with a Gray  card base from SU.  I added a Pink panel from Recollections.  The script background is from QKR Stampede.  I sized it to 4.25" x 5"  and trimmed it down once I printed it.  I used quite a few different DI to distress it.  (Peeled Paint, Rusty Hinge, Broken China, Walnut Stain, Tea Dye)  I just kept adding layers of ink until I liked the way it looked.  The heart, key and sentiment are from Shelly's Images.  I used a BIC marker to color in the heart and key then started layering on the DI.  I tied a piece of pink ribbon to the key and slid it through the key hole in the heart.  I matted the sentiment on the same pink card stock after inking it with DI Vintage Photo.  I like the distressed, vintage look this card has.

Thanks for stopping by to visit.  Come back now, ya hear!  God bless y'all.
