What's up with the Snowman?

Good Afternoon Friends,

So today I have a winter card. I know, I know, I have complained waiting for warm weather and here I am creating a winter card Ha! That's just me being me. Seriously, I just love all the winter stamps out there and got a bit restless and said hey what the heck!

So this cute digi is from Crafty Sentiments and is a sweet snowman couple. I only half cut it out because I wanted to showcase some of the background paper and then I added some Stickles and Glossy Accents around them to appear like sparkly snow.

                                          

Hope you enjoy!

Hugs,
Kim

Postal workers

Good morning friends,

Today I have been busy with some cleaning getting ready for summer! Looking forward to the world becoming a calmer place hopefully.

In the meantime, I have done a lot of online shopping and get many packages each week so this card today is quite appropriate.

                                        
How cute is this postal worker? These are digital stamps from the greeting farm which I colored using my copics. I also die cut some clouds and grass to make a little scene. I thought he came out quite cute.

No Card

Good Morning Everyone,

So I just saw that over at Fab n Funky Challenge they are doing an anything but a card challenge and they wanted to see what else we talented card makers maybe be creating. So I decided to share this wreath.

I also make and sell wreaths for all occasions. I have lots of fun ones but I wanted to share this one because it is unique and perfect for the world we live in today.

I hope you all love it and have a sense of humor because I do! Just so you know I did not make all the elements on the wreath I just put them all together to create a wreath.

Enjoy,
Kim

Thankful

Hello Everyone!

So today's card is a simple one. We had a death in the family and so many friends and relatives were so kind to us, so I made a few thank you cards apart from the printed ones we had. I love this stamp and I cannot remember where I got it. It is a digital stamp that I have used often. The thank you is a rubber stamp from Stampendous.

                                             

I hope you enjoy! I also hope maybe everyone is getting out and about a bit more. I know some of our restrictions are being lifted next week. So we will see how it goes.

Thanks,
Kim

Is it June yet?

Good Afternoon Everyone,

So another unseasonably cold day here. This is crazy! It is almost June and it feels like February.
Between the weather and the stay at home I am going crazy. Well I was always a little crazy before this lol.

So today my focus was on Father's Day. Hopefully we will be able to have the kids here and maybe do a cookout. This card was done with an adorable image from Mo's Digital Pencil. Reminds me of my oldest daughter when she was little because she had a lot of hair.

I colored her with my copics and added the sweetest little flower embellishments.

                                     
Hope you love it!

Tuesday

Happy Tuesday!

I am trying to remind myself what day it is as everyday seems like the next lol! I am trying to continue to jump ahead on holiday cards. I find I just love all the little witches there! Today's card I also tried a shaker. I think it came out cute but I definitely need more practice so I will have to go look up some tutorials on this.

This image is a La La Land Marci and I colored her with my copics. I tried to make the shaker look like a full moon. Not sure I accomplished that lol. But I love the colors I used. That teal green is an awesome color and I love any color mixed with black.

Enjoy!
Kim

Granddaughters

Good Morning,

So tomorrow is Mother's  Day and a lot of us will be celebrating that through windows, doors, Facetime, Zoom and what not. I guess it is the best way to stay safe but I sure do miss those sweet hugs my granddaughters give me. As I a sure most of you do too!

Today's card reminds me of that with this sweet digital stamp image placed behind the window frame with acetate. Especially her kissing that cute teddy bear. This image was from Elizabeth Bell called Pati's kisses. I added a couple more clouds for a more 3 dimensional look. Hope you like it!

Looking Ahead

Good Afternoon Friends,

I am looking ahead and hoping that soon things will start loosening up. There are so many people missing their graduations, weddings, showers, anniversary parties, the occasion list is endless. But by looking forward I am still making cards for all these occasions because while we may not be able to attend these events we still want to honor them.

So this one is for all the graduates out there. I truly feel for you. I used a digital image that I believe is from Sassy Studio Designs, I have had this one for a while so if I am wrong please correct me. Naturally, I colored her with my copics. I added some detail on the inside of the card too. This is not a regular practice for me but I am finding that I enjoy it. I like the look.

Coloring

Hi Everyone,

Just a quick post today sharing another birthday card. I have been coloring a lot of images but have been slow to put them on cards. Anyone else like that? Some days I just like to color.

This cutie is another from Magnolia Stamps she is the cutest with her balloon. I have had this stamp for a while and I never get sick of it. She has a bit of a vintage feel to this one.

                                     

Enjoy,
Kim

Birthdays

Hello Friends, 

How is everyone? I am good just trying to keep busy as we all are. Been doing a lot of cleaning of the house, my husband might miss this when the stay at home order is lifted haha! But at least the weather is getting a bit better. My granddaughter told me she misses me so much and so does her stuffed cat (Whiskers) lol. She will never know how much I miss her!!!

But with that being said this card is a birthday card of which we have had to miss so many birthday parties, but I am hoping by the time my birthday gets here (June), we will be able to get together.

                                           

I used a rubber stamp from Magnolia stamps. I think she is so sweet. I colored her with copics. I used some dies and paper punches for this one. Hope you like her!

Babies

Good Morning Everyone,

Finally been experiencing some nice weather here which is so good! Been out walking more and seeing parents trying to keep their kids entertained while reminding them of social distancing. I am so glad mine are grown up now because that must be so tough.

With Mother's Day coming up soon I think most moms deserve an extra big thank you this year! This card was made for a new mom. I think it is so fun showing a young mom and her cute baby. This is a digital stamp from Sherry Baldy Besties stamps.

I colored it with my copics. I love paper behind it (from Dress My Craft) with the roses and I added some roses so it makes like 3D or least that is what I tell myself lol!

I hope you enjoy!

                                            

Virtual Hugs,
Kim
