Congratulations Wedding Card with Simon Says Stamp and Cas-ual Fridays

I love the "Heart to Heart" background stamp by Simon Says Stamp.  Here I did a watercolor wash background using my Aloha Watercolors (so sparkly!) and then heat embossed the stamp in white.

I used "Heartfelt Says" by Cas-ual Fridays Stamps for sentiment which was white heat embossed on a piece of vellum.


Thanks for stopping by!

Father's Day with Concord & 9th


I kept this card very simple using the "Monster Hugs" stamp set from Concord & 9th.  The sentiment is from Lawn Fawn's "Dad + Me".  All were stamped in Versafine and heat embossed.  Then I used the Altenew Watercolor 36 pan set and finished the image using a few Polychromos pencils.

Birthday Card with The Stamping Village

Masculine cards are the hardest.  I kept this one simple and the "Happy Birthday" stamp set from The Stamping Village was perfect.

I stamped the balloons in Copic friendly ink and set about coloring each with a range of Blues.  Then I covered each with a layer of Nuvo Crystal Drops in Morning Dew.


Mother's Day Card with Altenew

Hello and thank you for visiting!

For this Mother's Day card, I started by creating a rainbow background using Aloha Watercolors.  Then heat embossed the flower from "Best Mom" by Altenew with Versafine and clear embossing powder.  The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp "Mom's Meadow" and was also heat embossed.
