More Tea Party DSP Cards

Here are a few more cards I made with the a sheet of DSP from the Tea Party collection. The two cards together are 3 X 3 love notes. This paper speaks to me of Spring and Easter and I am ready for better weather, which means less rain here in the Northwest.

Pals Paper Arts entry

This weeks entry for Pals Paper Arts is a KISS card. Keep it simple, sweetie. You don't think of the the items you add to cards until you try to make it simple. Thanks for looking.

Ribbon and Stamps What Fun

Since Spring is just around the corner, yes I am looking forward to it, I thought I would pull out some of my older stamps and play a bit. We have actually had sunshine the last few days and I tried to capture some of it with my cards.
This one looks better inperson because it is so light in color.

Fun Layers

I have been playing with some layers this week. I am enjoying the vintage stamps with words and designs across the stamp. Hope you enjoy.

Fun with Sale-A-Bration paper


Here are a couple of cards using the designer paper from the Sale-A-Bration catalog. I've spent the weekend making cards and watching the Olympics, a great combination in my opinion. So, I will be sharing more with you this week.

Cards for the Troops

One of the gals in our group sends cards to the troops, so I have started making cards for her to include in her next shipment. The inside of the cards are blank so the soldiers have space to write. I enjoy making cards and am pleased that I can share them with folks who will enjoy and use them. Hope you enjoy looking at them.

More Easel Cards

Here are some more of my easel cards. I am so enjoying making them and hope you enjoy seeing them. Hope you have a blessed day...Michelle
The bottom of these two cards is made with a jumbo wheel stamp that I took off the wheel and put on an acrylic block to stamp. Since the stamp doesn't have a cushion on it, I adhere the stamp on the block with a little snail.
This card is embellished with Sweat Pea Felt and a corduroy button. The background is enhanced with shimmer paint and alchohol from a mini mister. I loaded the mini mister about 2/3 full with an alchohol hand sanitizer and then added about six or seven drops of champagne shimmer paint. Just shake it up until blended and mist away.
I wanted a "guy" card that could be used for Valentine's Day or any other occasion I wanted to say I Love You. This combination did the trick: Dusty Durango, Bermuda Bay, and Chocolate Chip. Enjoy.
