Mr. Rabbit and his eggs

Mr. Rabbit has all of your egg dying needs! Had fun playing with this new stamp set along with some older things I’ve had sitting unused in my craft room. I started with a Tim Holtz framed panel (this size, approx. 6 1/2″x 9″, may be retired). I painted it with Black Soot distress paint,Continue reading “Mr. Rabbit and his eggs”

Bunny time

Easter is a little early this year so I thought I’d share a couple cards I made for my swap group. For this simple slimline card I used the Hipster bunny stamp set (THMM164). This set comes with a stencil that I used for the polka dot background, using Tumbled Glass oxide ink. The bunnyContinue reading “Bunny time”

The Scarecrow

Despite the 100+ degree temperatures around here, I am ready for fall. Dreaming of cooler nights, heading to the pumpkin patch and wearing sweaters again. I fell in love with this scarecrow stamp by Tim Holtz for Stampers anonymous and felt it would be perfect for a little reverse painting.

Ten tags in two days

For my most recent swap, I decided to make each person a bookmark to start the year in addition to my swap. Each one was made in exactly the same way, using different ephemera and paper dolls. Once I had a plan, they came together very quickly. I hope you like them and perhaps getContinue reading “Ten tags in two days”

Holiday Scene 2021

This is a card I did for a class. Though it has several individual steps, it goes together fairly quickly.

Peace in Purple

I’m loving the new Snowflake impresslit and it seems to go perfectly with the Arched embossing folder. Originally I was going to do it in gold, but had a quick change of heart when I found both of my gold mousses dried up. Lesson: Use your stuff! =) Materials used: Tim Holtz/Sizzix 3D Impresslit- SnowflakeContinue reading “Peace in Purple”

The Raven

This is another card I am using for my swap group. This particular group is an assembly-only group and I didn’t feel like doing a whole lot of stamping/coloring. This one uses just one stamp, some sprays and some die cuts so I didn’t feel overwhelmed making 10 kits of it. Hope you like it!Continue reading “The Raven”
