When You Go Through Deep Waters
I received this order the SAME day I created this card and it was so satisfying to play with...
the stencil and stamp set come together guys!!!
I could have left it just like this...
But I wanted to Copic the background with a color that matched the top right shade of Tim Holtz Distress Ink that I blended into the stencil.
I had fun with it and brought out my dearly loved Papertrey Ink Geode Layers I've had for awhile.
Oh I will be playing with this more for sure!
Thank you for your sweet visit!

Plant Wall Birthday
The Stamp Market Grid Die, Pink Fresh Studio Lots of Love, Pretty Pink Posh Sentiment Strip
Created this for my sister and sent it off!
She's a plant collector and I love it ;).
Happy Birthday to my sister. ;)
Sketchy Light Up Birthday Card
I had fun with this Brutus Monroe Sketchy set:
Brutus Monroe Sketchy Dies/Sketchy Sentiments/Midnight Cardstock
I lit it up with Pear Blossom Press EZ light too (I wanted to impress my brother in law, who's a talented artist)!
Brutus Monroe Sketchy Dies/Sketchy Sentiments/Midnight Cardstock, Pearblossom Press EZ light
The spider web is a doily I stocked up on forever ago.
I keep finding them in sections of my craft room, and then I say "OH yah....I forgot I had these!".
His October birthday warrants a spider web, me thinks.
Thank you for your sweet visit!

God's Masterpiece
Papertrey Ink Geode Layers Die, Stampin Up By the Tide, Verve (no longer in business) Bible verse
Hubby requested a fishing card for his buddy...and I had this secondhand set I picked up at a cool antique shop (never been inked).
I started with leaving the Geode Layer panel in the die and sponging a few colors.
After that it was fish, squiggle line, sentiment...
boom, done!
He liked it and is sending off.
Check out the blues and brown at Time Out Challenges.
The boat and view screams fishing (with coffee like background) to me!
Thanks for stopping by today~
DT INk Clean & Simple with Optional Flowers
Stampin Up Jar of Love, Papertrey Ink Words of Comfort, The Ton Stamps Glass Slipper Sequins
It's time for a new challenge at INkspirational!
This time the prompt is CAS with the Optional Twist of Flowers.
I was requested a sympathy card and so I inked up this secondhand set I picked up (I believe it's retired).
