Monstermaniacs Magic

This card is for Tuesday Make-n-Takes. I always like this stamp set. It is not in any of our catalogs, but you can order directly from me on on-line here.  When I saw Dawn Griffith do a magic card with it, I had to have it. This is my version of Dawn's card you can see here. You will be surprised how easy this is to make.

Blessed Easter
This is the second project for this months stamp camp. This card was designed by my helper Kathy and myself. This is the first time I have used the Pewter embossing powder and I LOVE IT!. I have never like to use black on flowers. I like Basic Gray, but it is Pewter for now on. This is a fast and easy card. I love to watercolor. These turned out fabulously even using the Very Vanilla card stock instead of watercolor paper. When you are not using watercolor paper, the trick is to make sure your brush tip is not to wet. I think I would have like this a little better if I had stamped off before stamping the En Francais background. The second card uses a different background. and on the inside Kathy choose to stamp the flowers in soft suede, not embossed. Our color scheme came from the color in the Retro Fresh Designer Series Paper pack.

Secret Garden Birthday and 
Get Well Pop Up Boxes



















This pop up card box is one of the projects for my March "Spring" Stamp Camp. My friend, Karla, and I had so much fun making these boxes. I think it would be great to take this little box bouquet to someone sick, home or in the hospital. No watering needed. These boxes also fold up and fit in a A2, invitation size envelope.  I choose the Secret Garden stamp set because we have Framelit dies to match. I went with the colors in the Watercolor Wonder Designer Series Paper. I will add a post next week with the instructions to make the box.
