Hi Everyone,

Happy Sunday!!
This could be a great new motto for 2016.  Do you find that coloring is relaxing?
Have you noticed how many adult coloring books there are out there? It is very therapeutic, why should kids have all the fun? I have always loved coloring and this year I will be using my markers a lot more. For instance with this card I colored the cups with copic markers. They blend so beautifully, but I have a lot of other brands of markers, this year I think I will purge some of the ones I do not use. The DSP I used is from We R Memories, I hope you are inspired to get creative today. This is one of my newest sets of stamps and dies from verve

I used the Verve cuppa tea die for the tea  cups and the stamps set is from Verve called "One cup"
I also used the stitched circle dies from Jaded Blossom for my circle cut outs.

I used the Mojo sketch #429

Hi Friends,

Fathers day has come and gone, but you can still make a guy card. I have some more inspiration  for you.

DL.ART Thankful Thursday Challenge #111

THEME:   Fathers day/ or card for a man

                                                                         
 Do you find making guy cards difficult?

Challenge yourself

Remember  last week I told you,  this past march I was at the scrapbook expo in Pleasanton.  I took a work shop from a woman  named Michelle who owns Avocado Arts stamps.  Wonderful whimsical stamps. "The perfect blend" was  the stamp set I received for part of the class kit.  I love it. When I got home I was able to order the cut file for the dies that match the stamps.   I  die cut every single stamped image and I have almost used everyone from the stamp set with these three cards.

The strip of paper is from AC Studio Calico, darling dear with gingerbread crinkle ribbon from  My Craft Spot. I used Jenni Bowlin malted milk to stamp the cup. The heart and the tea bag are colored with copic markers.   Does this look like a face with lips? It does to me.

I used Kraft card stock for the base, PTI dark chocolate ink and green copic marker to color in the cup. I used the cup dots to add the design to the take-out cup. I used a die to cute the flower shape out of the burlap. The flower brad is from making memories

The papers I used are recollection

the Base card stock is PTI,
ink is PTI dark chocolate
