Here is a card I made using three stamp sets from Blue Knight Rubber stamps. (Fence and Fawn, Country Home, Mini Greetings 1) For those of you who know me, you know I hate masking, but this wasn't hard at all and the card came together really quick.
For those of you in PA, Blue Knight Rubber Stamps will be in Allentown this weekend. If you go to the stamp show, drop by and say "hi" to Lynn.
I started out by stamping my fence on white card stock. I made a mask of the fence and stamped in the country house. I colored the card with copics and sponged my clouds in using a cloud template. I colored the deer, fuss cut him and adhered him on the card.
I hope you enjoyed my card. Come back soon.

Say I Do - Wedding Day
Here is a cute wedding card I made using Blue Knight's Wedding Day Stamp. The wedding season is coming up fast and it is always good to have a wedding card or two in our stash. I wanted to keep it fairly simple so I did not take away from the beauty of the stamp. I colored the image with copics. I added rhinestones on the brides necklace, oops- I mean diamonds. Really diamonds are a girl's best friend- they say and I bet she would wear diamonds on her special day. ~grin~ I added black tulle. I wanted to add sequins, but I really think the image is beautiful without them.
Thanks, for coming by today. I would love to hear what you think of my card.

Blue Knight Lamp Post Way - Mothermark Inspired
I made this card for the Splitcoast Free 4 All Challenge today. I used Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.
The base image is called Lamp Post Way and the chairs/umbrella are from the Beach Chairs Accessories set.
The Free 4 All challenge is to case a card that you have saved in your favorites. I went way back in my favorites and cased a card by Mothermark/Cindy. Cindy made awesome cards and she had a wonderful sense of humor. She was a lot of fun. Cindy's cards always had the most amazing clouds in her scenes. She taught me how to make the clouds on my card today. Since I love make scenes with clouds, I thought it only appropriate to pick one of her cards to case. Cindy's card.
Thank you, for coming by today. I hope you have a fabulous weekend.

As The Feathers Fly

Happy Easter - Baby Wipe Water Coloring Technique
Happy Spring, Everyone. This is the first day, but this is what I have been waiting on. I know we will have some cool days for a while, but I like knowing warmer days are on the way.
I wanted to participate in the Technique Lover's Challenge over at Splitcoast today. The technique is called Baby Wipe Water Coloring. I used a piece of designer paper that was off white with a pattern that reminded me of the sun. I used my distress inks that I put on acrylic blocks and then used a baby wipe to apply the inks to the card stock. I had this Eureka Bunny with Flowers image already colored. Yay. I fussy cut it and popped it up on the dp with dimensionals. I added some sequins for the finishing touch.
If you have not been over to Stamp On It to see their new site, you might want to check it out. They have such cute images. They have Artful Stamps, Biblical Impressions, Eureka and QKR Stampede stamps. They have both rubber stamps and digital stamps.
Thanks, for stopping by today.

Hurry Up Spring
I made this card for the Friends of Flourishes Blog ribbon challenge today. I used the Year of the Flowers 2 Stamp Set. I used Versamark to stamp my image on white card stock and added gold embossing powder over it. The image was then colored with copics. I added it to circles of yellow and navy card stock so I could adhere it to my card. To finish off my card I added a white bow that I tied with a fork. Those are my favorite bows.
Thanks, for coming by and I hop you will check out my other team mates cards.

Flourishes ~ Masculine Card
Hi, it is Shirley posting today. It is my week to host the Friends of Flourishes challenge. I challenged the team to make a “masculine” card. I think most of us seem to have a hard time making cards for the males in our lives. Really they aren’t that hard. I think most of us believe that a masculine card is not suppose to have flowers on it. That is not necessarily true. Men like flowers, just like we do, although I did not use flowers on my card today. Men just don’t want all the ribbon and foo foo that we ladies like.
For my card, I used the Flourishes image from the “My Cup Overflows” Stamp set. My sentiment “relax” is from the Flourishes Fuji Mum set. I thought this would make a perfect birthday card.
Check out the other members of the Friends DT and see what they have to share with you:

Calling All Foodie's ~ You're One In A Dozen
I am the challenge hostess this week for the Free 4 All challenge at Splitcoast Stampers. The theme is "Calling All Foodies". I definitely am a foodie. I am always wanting to try new restaurants and foods. Even if you do not consider yourself a "Foodie", you can still play the challenge. Just make sure you put food or something food related on your card.
I used a Stampin' Up Stamp Set called Perfect Mix for my card. I fell in love with the set when I first saw it in the catalog.
Thank you, for stopping by my blog today. I hope you make a card to share with me for this challenge.
