Joy Ornament

Here with another card with a blue and gray/silver look to it. Last night while catching up some of my recorded shows I decided to pull out a neglected stamp set and play with my watercolors. I've been watching some videos on the WPlus9 YouTube channel and was very inspired! She is awesome.

Once I was done coloring it, I thought the panel I used was the perfect size for Freshly Made Sketch

 and of course another great option for  Merry Monday Challenge

Here is my finished card...

I'm no budding watercolor painter for sure, but I thought it turned out pretty decent! I love blue and white with sparkles!

Thanks as always for stopping by. Hope everyone is staying warm and enjoying the weekend!

Merry Monday #134

I'm posting today to share a card I made for the Merry Monday challenge #134. 

I saw the challenge image and was ready to get started with my idea in mind! I call our tree the winter wonderland tree, full of blues, whites and silver! Here is what I came up with...

I embossed the ornaments in silver on water color paper. I watercolor them with distress markers. Just for a little more shimmer I used the Perfect Pearls as watercolor for the white areas. 

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day!

Joy to the World

 I had a card pop into my head, so I sat down to make it before bed. This card will be added to the Merry Monday challenge blog. The theme over there this week is the words have it.

I wanted to keep it simple so my words would stand out. I think I succeeded since it's the only thing on my card! ;-)

I used Missing you by Lawn Fawn for the earth and the twine is Lawn Fawn as well. The letters are MFT's peek a boo letter dies. The glitter tape I used was found at Target. I used Neenah Desert storm cardstock for the card.

Thanks as always for stopping by. Have a great day and weekend!
