One Layer Card - OCC Day 3
I am not brave enough to try the harder watercoloring cards (even though I took the class).  I loved Kristina's card and did a little something like it with resist on the snowflakes and then a dry embossed background full of snowflakes.  This technique was super easy and I really like how it turned out.  Thanks for stopping by!
Supplies
Sizzix snowflake embossing folder
Stamps: SSS Lots of Snowflakes
Dies:  SSS Merry Christmas
Ink: mowed lawn, tumbled glass, broken china; versamark for the resist
Holiday Card - OCC Day 2
This is my very first shaker card.  I'm sure there will be lots more this was really fun (and no where near as hard or time consuming as I thought it would be).
Supplies

Stamps:  Lawn Fawn Winter Penquin (its a small set but I've already used it quite a few times); sentiment SSS November card kit stamp set.

Copics:  W9, W7, W4, W1, W0, R46, R35, YG13,YG17, YR12, YR15, YR16, BG10, BG53

I love these Online Card Classes.  I went with Jennifer McGuire's card today.  I only made 4 but, totally could have made a bunch more.  I only had 2 good greens I wanted to use so that made it a little easier. Thanks for dropping by!

Supplies:
Stamps: Simon Says Stamps, Papertrey Ink, and Ali Edwards/Technique Tuesday
Inks: Hero Arts Field Green & Forever Green (trunk is cup o' joe)
Used an veneer star probably from Studio Calico.
Red card base is Hero Arts.

This is my Thanksgiving card for this year.  The leaves were watercolored with distress inks.  I put the distress inks on my craft mat sprayed them with water (mixed with perfect pearls in bronze) smooched the paper into it (a few times) and then after they dried I used the Lawn Fawn leaf dies to cut the leaves.  Then used SSS woodgrain paper on a cream card.  Included the Whimsy "happy" from gold foil paper, stamped "thanksgiving" on vellum and embossed with AC Gold embossing powder.  Used Lawn Fawn gold twine to add a little texture.  Thanks for dropping by!

Another Christmas card.  I just love this digital image from Bugaboo.  Such fun to color.  Not sure if you can see it in the picture but I added glossy accents to her glasses and the ornaments after coloring with Copic Markers.

Copy Card from Kristina Werner

I fell in love with this image when Kristina created a beautiful card with it.  I don't usually copy a card but I just loved it.
