A2Z- Congratulations

Hello and happy April Fool's Day! Not only is today the first of the month, it's my son's birthday. My mom thought I maybe I had been joking when I called to tell her he was on his way. Had I thought about it, I would have told her we were surprised with twins.... But I wasn't much in the joking mood. ;-) Can't believe he's going to be 16!!! Where did the time go...

Over at A2Z our theme is about getting to know you- Use your favorite Hero Art items. I chose to use my favorite two embossing powders ( I couldn't chose 1) and since we have a lot of pregnant ladies at church this year, I did  a baby themed card.


I first stamped and heat embossed my sentiment on some watercolor cardstock. Then I followed the same step for the baby feet up the side of the panel. Once the heat embossing was done I watercolored the panel and ran a cardstock panel through my Big Kick with an embossing folder, while it dried. 

I adhered the layers on the cardbase with the top layer being adhered with foam tape.

Taco Truck Thanks

I just wanted to pop up with a card that I made for the CAS-ual Fridays no dies allowed challenge. I'm trying to make more of an effort to play with more challenges. 



I stamped my images (the truck and tacos) and did some simple coloring with my copics. Stamped the sentiment, then added some Nuvo Drop on the windows and hubcaps.


I then stamped the inside of my card with some more tacos and another sentiment. (I love the fun sentiment!) Made for quick card with no die cutting and some simple coloring.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!

Hello bird

Hello all, I'm here today to share a card I made for the March challenge over at the the Die Cut Diva's blog. Our theme is to use animals/pets and our sponsor is Di's Digis.

Di's Digi Downloads

The PRIZE is $12 voucher to Di's Digi Stamps shop.



 I stamped and die cut the bird before coloring it with copics. I got my panels cut and ran the white layer through my BigKick with an embossing folder. I layered my panels on some layers of cardstock onto the cardbase, stamped the sentiment and added my bird with some foam tape. I used the sketch from this weeks Freshly Made Sketches for layout and will link my card to the challenge.

To finish the card I added some glitter to the sentiment and to the bird for a little sparkle. 


Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
