Birthday Card with Mama Elephant - Rain or Shine

Hello and welcome to my Blog!

For this card, I colored a piece of MFT vellum using Turquoise Sea dye ink by Gina K.  Then I broke out the "Rain or Shine" Simon Says Stamp Stamptember special stamp set by Mama Elephant.  I colored everything with Copics and stamped some rain drops with Gina K Blue Raspberry ink.



Here are the Copic colors I used:

Kitty colored with E30, E33, E35, RV11
Chick colored with Y02, Y15, YR04
Flower colored with Y04, Y15, RV11, RV04
Grass colored with YG03, YG17, YG67
Sun Y02, Y04, Y15

I am entering this in the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Whatever the Weather.

Birthday Card with Gina K Mandala Maker

I've had the "Mandala Maker" stamp set from Gina K for a while now and finally got up the courage to attempt a mandala.

I think it turned out pretty well :)



I used the following rainbow colors of Gina K Inks to stamp each piece:  Blue Raspberry, Wild Lilac, Lucky Clover, Wild Dandelion, Tangerine Twist and Red Hot.  The sentiment is from Gina K's "Wreath Builder" stamp set.

I am entering this into the Gina K March Monthly Mix Challenge

Let me know what you think!  Thanks for looking!

Thank You Card with Altenew

For this card I used Altenew's Sweetest Peas stamp set.



Stamped with flowers with Hero Arts Intense Black and then colored them with Copics in V01, V06, YG25 and YG17.  After I finished coloring, I went over the image with a black marker and then added a shadow with C1.  Then I decided it needed some sparkle.  I couldn't find my Wink of Stella since almost everything is currently boxed up for an impeding house move, but I did have a Sakura Stardust Gelly Roll pen that laid down a nice thick layer of glitter!

Thanks for looking today!
