Black cats

 Hello Everyone,

Today's card is a fun pop up card. I used stamps (the witch and cats) from La La Land Crafts and colored them up using my copics. This was actually the wicked witch from the Wizard of Oz collection but I mad her a halloween witch. The inside message pops up when you open the card.

That's 70's

 Hey Everyone,

Wanted to share this really cool card with you! It brings me back to my youth with its 70's vibe. Yup I am that old. This was created using the kit of the month from La La Land Crafts. I colored up Marci using my copics. I stenciled the sun from the die cut in the kit and added some more dies. I think she is very hip!

Mini Bundle

 Good Morning Friends,

Today I want to share a card with you that I made using the newly released mini bundle at Polkadoodles that you can get here: Cute Gnome Feeding Bird. This is a digital release that comes with one image both plain and colored, sentiments and papers! How easy is that to create something quick and simple. 

I used the plain image and colored him myself with copics.  I also combined two of the sentiments to create one. This is a fun summer thank you card.

La La land KOTM

 Good Morning everyone,
