First, my Mom was here one day and we did up this card with the balloon pop ups.
I thought I'd just show you the inside, since the outside isn't done yet...someday...yes, I'm a procrastinator. |
I also got a surprise visit from my niece and nephew...guess what we did?
Anyhoo...They're both extremely creative. It runs in the family I guess...
This was one of Sandra's backgrounds, and here's the stamp she used with it.
Awesome, or what?? |
I decided to make two backgrounds on this one using the same colors. |
Did a twirly motion to get this background. |
I love these Tim Holtz Stamps...they were perfect for this project! |
Now to make some cards....soon...I hope...;) |
These were all done using glossy photo paper that I got at the Dollar Store. It's fun to play with the distress inks and see what kind of designs you can come up with!
I also made up this card for my grand daughter-to-be for her birthday!
It's very sparkly, like her sweet personality! Click on it to see a close up! |
We also babysat our grandkids overnight. That was a lot of fun!! Plus we went to a BBQ with lots of family and friends. It's been busy, but fun!!
Well, I've used up enough time, now I have to rush to get things done! Oh well, it was worth it. Have a good day, and thanks for stopping by!
Blessings,
Carmen

Nice to see that your whole family joins in your creative activities. Love those cards with the alcohol ink backgrounds.
ReplyDeleteLooks like youve been having great fun with the family. Love your inky backgrounds. Elizabeth x
ReplyDeleteI like that one with the Hero Arts Stamp on your background! (Actually, I like them all, but that one was my very most favorite on the page.) I, too, love the fact that your family stops by and sits down to do cards. My family works similarly. I walked into my sister's house and by the end of the night, I had beaded a bracelet. Such a special thing!
ReplyDeleteHi Carmen! Thank you so much for leaving a lovely comment on my blog....I really enjoyed using your steampunk balloon, and, of course it's okay to put it on your post....I would be honoured!
