Fish, golf and tools

A few guy cards today and it felt good to color these up. The sentiment on Fly Guy was perfect for my first one. I have some twine along the side with the two brads, but it didn't turn out how I pictured it but the holes were already made. ha! Added sparkle to the water and a simple die cut behind the image. 

Dusted off these two oldies but goodies of Grumpy Gus. They make me giggle with his hair alone. Added some die cut tool shapes to this first one. A few enamel dots for accents. 

Next one of my favorite of his golfing. Textured a white circle for a background panel. Stamped the sentiment after the pierced border and a few brads. Voila! 

                                 

Another floral dump

This is the last of the floral cards I created the other day. This is Strong and Beautiful set that is timeless for creations. 

This bloom was not turning out like I had planned it to look, but in the end I think it turned out ok. Colored with various Copic markers and a simple layer of designer paper for the base. A few enamel dot accents and some sparkle to the sentiment only for this one. 

My second one is more like I had planned in my head using the peach tones based on the designer paper base. Brad accents on this one and my sentiment panel has a few piercings down the edge. Sparkle added to the flower petals. Voila! 

                                       

Floral dump

A few floral cards today. Having issues getting some creative juices going so I looked back and recreated some older versions that I have done. Started to feel the juices a little again, thank goodness! 

This is a sunflower from Heartfelt creations that is colored with various Copic markers. Some faux stitching around the border and rounded the corners on the image panel. A few brads accents and then some suduko gel pen to the petals.

Second sunflower using pink and brown hues on this one. Die cut heart edge along the embossed piece with faux stitching again along the base panel. Some enamel dots with a twine and button corner. Topped off with sparkles. 

Another set of Hyancinth and Hellebore set. Wood grain based layer and a fancy die cut layer below the bloom. Some sequins accents and sparkle added to the water and the blooms. 

Last is the pretty pink Hellebore with very simple stitched layers and some sequins accents. Of course added sparkle to finish this off. Voila

                                    

Sunday lambs

Good morning. Dusted off a really old set called Loving Lambs to create the other day. I had to make myself sit down and crafts especially since we bought fathers day cards this year. Been a long time since I had bought a card. A good reminder to get ahead of the stash when its really low. Anyways... 

This first one has some soft woodgrain paper for the background. Die cut a heart border with some ribbon wrapped around with a bow. A few tiny pearls for the corner and voila. 

This one I used a few of the scrap sizes from the next card to make a smaller one using the little praying lam. Textured the base layer and added some pearls to the corner. My sentiment is stamped along the side and yes it is not straight. ggrrr.. I usually don't stamp after I color but it was minimal I thought it would be fine. Guessed wrong. 

Next is using one of the large lambs in the set. Wrapped some lace trim and ribbon around the center. Pearl accents and some sparkle of the bell. Voila! Have a great day.
