Congrats! You Got Your License

Hi there.  This post contains a cute little card made with an image from Sliekje.  Most of her images contains cats, but there are some that have some really cute kids.

This card is perfect for a boy who has just gotten his driver's license, which is what the inside sentiment is about.  I think it turned out pretty dang cute.

Thanks so much for stopping in today.  I truly appreciate you and the time you took to come see me.  If you have any questions, please feel free to ask about how I made this card.   Have a wonderful day and God bless y'all.

New Creation

Welcome back y'all.  I have one more card for ya in this batch.  I will have more later on tonight, I'm sure.

This card used a beautiful rose image from Beccy Muir.  I centered the roses and added the sentiment around it.  The sentiment is a Scripture from 2 Corinthians 5:17.

I began by printing off the image.  I colored in the roses and leaves with my BIC markers.  I added some white highlights with a White Gel Pen.  After I added the highlights, it just looked too  bright so I toned it down a bit.  The card itself is 6" square and is made from a card base of Red card stock from Colorbok.  I added a DP from DCWV after matting it on Black Recollections card stock.  I trimmed down a panel of striped DP from DCWV and also matted that on black. The image itself is matted on black.  Before adding the image, I added some 2" wide Red ribbon and tied a bow on the right hand side.  I added image with pop dots.

That's it.  Pretty simple right?    I hope you enjoyed your visit today.  Have a wonderful Monday.  God bless y'all.

Something Old

Thanks for stopping back in peeps.  I sure do appreciate it.  

The card I have for y'all this time uses a stamp from The Stamp Man Nautical set.  I used Memento Espresso Truffle ink to stamp it and DI Vintage Photo to edge it.

I wanted the image to have a distressed, old look so after edging the image with Vintage Photo, I added some ink to the image itself.  I matted it on a nice Gray from SU.  The DPs are from DCWV and have script and postal images in a distressed form.  I matted the DP on Very Vanilla (SU) and the whole thing is on a Gray (SU) card base.  That's it...no gems, pearls or bling.  I wanted a CAS manly card for this one.

Thanks again y'all.  Have a great day!  God bless y'all.
