Miss Your Face

I had a little fun last evening after a Facebook friend posted a link to a YouTube tutorial on how to create a paper mask card (you can check it out HERE)! I generated the sentiment using Word and the mask itself was easy to put together. I'll send it to my daughter who is an RN working with Covid patients in South Carolina. How ironic that I haven't spoken to her by phone in a week and she called as I was typing this post!

I'm playing along with the Tuesday Morning Sketches challenge and had to tweak it just a bit to have room for the mask.

PAPER: Moonlight paper stack by SU; Lost Lagoon (SU); White (PTI).

DIES: Stitched Square and Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-Namics by My Favorite Things.

He Is Risen

Hope everyone is having a super Saturday! We're in the middle of Lent meaning Easter is right around the corner and I'm needing several more cards for my stash. In the last Reverse Confetti newsletter, Kathy Schweinfurth gave us a suggested color palette - Rose, Olive, Iced Aqua, Dark Roast, Buttercup - so this is my take on it.  I'm also using the sketch for the current Tuesday Morning Sketches challenge and was also inspired by the polka dots in the Tag, You're It challenge. I immediately went for the whimsical florals in RC's Petals 'n Posies set. I'm also entering this into RC's March Stock Your Stash challenge where we are to use an Easter/Spring theme.

 

I tweaked the stripes in the sketch a bit and used the Triple Chevies die set by RC for a similar concept. 

Here's a list of what I used:

STAMPS: Easter Blessing, Petals 'n Posies - Reverse Confetti.

PAPER: Stone, Iced Aqua, Dark Roast (RC); White (PTI). 

INK: Rose, Olive, Buttercup (RC); Versafine Onyx Black.

DIES: Triple Chevies, Tag Me, Leafy, Petals 'n Posies - RC.

Tuesday Morning Sketches

I'm playing along with the Tuesday Morning Sketches challenge and decided to break in this new (to me) hoop die and Handstitched stamp set by Neat & Tangled. The patterned paper is from an old 6x6" pad called Love Me by My Minds Eye.  The hoop was cut from kraft CS and the screw top was cut from shiny cold CS...so fun! Coloring was done with Copics. 

A quick and easy sketch and I have another birthday card to add to my stash!  Thanks so much for stopping by...it's spitting snow as I'm writing this post! :-(  Come on spring...where are you???

Tuesday Morning Sketches

 

I'm playing along with the Tuesday Morning Sketches challenge #491 and am using new products from Stampin' Up's Classic Garage suite that includes stamps, dies, embellishments, 6x6 patterned papers, etc. that all coordinate together. 

There are numerous car lovers in our family and friends circle, so this set from the 2019 Occasions catalog by SU was a must have!  I stamped the car with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on X-Press It Blending Card then colored with Copics (G12, BG72, C1, C2). I added Glossy Accents to the headlights and windows.

STAMPS: Geared Up Garage (SU).
PAPER: Crushed Curry, Tranquil Tide, Black (SU); Classic Garage 6x6" paper pad.
INK: Memento Tuxedo Black.
DIES: Garage Gears Thinlits dies (SU); Fishtail Flags and Stitched Circle STAX Die-Namics by My Favorite Things.

Loads of Love

I dug into my SU archives to find this Loads of Love stamp set for

the following challenges: 

The Challenge #58  - masculine photo inspiration

Tag, You're It! Challenge #39

Tuesday Morning Sketches #336

I used distress inks to watercolor the truck, then added Glossy Accents to the windows and hubcaps before fussy cutting and adhering to the textured CS tag.  I blended the trees and clouds using an Aquapainter.  Even though

there are no hearts to be found on this card, I'm thinking it could pass for a masculine valentine!

STAMPS: Loads of Love (SU).
PAPER: Be Amazing in the Follow Your Heart series of DP by My Mind's Eye; Vintage Cream by PTI; Textured ivory CS by Bazzill.
INK: Peacock Feathers, Carved Pumpkin, Mermaid Lagoon, Peeled Paint, Tumbled Glass, Hickory Smoke, Black Soot, Antique Linen.
ACCESSORIES:  Traditional Tags STAX Die-Namics by MFT, Jute ribbon and jute twine, Glossy Accents.
 

Which is Witch?

It's time for another Raise the Bar challenge and this week we have a witchy theme.  Whimsie Doodles has this adorable Flying Lizzie Witch digi available HERE.  I colored with Copics and used the sketch (in a flipped version) from the Tuesday Morning Sketches  blog - my first time playing along with this challenge.
DP is from the Jen Yanok pad by K&Co. The sentiment is computer generated, punched with SU's word window punch and layered over a black circle.  Black seam binding finish off this Halloween creation.  Thanks for stopping by!
