Thanks for Stopping By!

Thanks to all of you who stopped by The Making Place last Sunday for my demos!  What a blast it was!

If you weren't able to stop by, I'll be posting all the projects I made using that fancy little board right here on the blog.

Here's a really quick and easy project that I made . . .

I just created an envelope for a 3 1/2 "by 6 1/2" card and cut off the top flap to make a pocket for that EVER so cute BeBunni Tag.  Add a belly band. . .and Viola! it's done.

See? Quick and easy. . .

Thanks for visiting today!

A Cat in a Hat Box

Another little card from my stack of colored images . . .

This stamp is from the same set that my sister gave me a while back.  So many cute critters in there to stamp and color. . .

Thanks for stopping by today!

Hello, Humphrey

I'm not one who can sit and just watch TV . . . so, I will often stamp up a few images and color them while I watch something.  Which usually means I don't watch it at all . . . I just listen and lift my head up if something pulls my attention away from coloring.

So, I end up with a stack of images colored up and ready to be added to a card.  My latest addiction passion is Humphrey by Crafter's Companion. . .

Here are few cards I made using him.

Isn't he the cutest??

A Very Barkley Thank You

Eeeep!  My sister surprised me with a new stamp set from Crafter's Companion. Of course, I just had to sit down and make a thank you card right away.

Isn't Barkley EVER so cute peeking through those flowers??  And doesn't that background paper work perfectly?  I love it when that happens. . . .I colored the image first and then chose the paper. I usually choose paper first.

Simple Sayings stamp set by Stamper's Anonymous
Tuxedo Black Memento Ink
Antique Linen Distress Ink
Copic Markers: C3, C5, C7, W1, Y02, Y06, YR00, YR02, YG63, YG67, BV00, BV02
