Paper Hug Butterflies

I stamped a bunch of butterflies one quarantine day (can't tell you when, because the days have all run together ;) ).

I connected four companies here: My Favorite Things images, Picket Fence Studios sentiment, Brutus Monroe stencil, Technique Tuesday die.

I love when that happens. ;)

Set of 3 Using 3

 

I've taken some time to stamp up a trio of cactus cards.

It started with one card...

Reverse Confetti Multi-Step Cacti,  SugarPea Designs Greatest Hits sentiment, Pretty Pink Posh Mini Storybook 1 Die

and grew to a trio!

This combo of supplies from three different companies play so well together:

Reverse Confetti images, SugarPea Designs sentiments and Pretty Pink Posh dies. ;)

Little tip: flip the pot over to the back and ink it up for "color".

You can do that with images that are symmetrical. 

This last one has pots stamped on colored cardstock: super easy.

DT INkspirational Rain or Rainbow

It's time for another challenge at INkspirational!

Clearly Besotted Over the Rainbow, Technique Tuesday Being Unique sentiment/Snowflake dies, My Favorite Things Stitched Arched Frames, Reverse Confetti this&that Paper Pad

I wanted to get a Christmas card done and this came to mind. 

Don't ask why I do what I do because I don't have an answer when it comes to cards. ;)

But know this, I'm from Hawaii and rainbows are year round, I'm pretty sure of that.

 

Please join us with your unique creation!

Avo Masculine

 

 I kid you not when I say I've hunted for a nice avocado stamp for YEARS.

Look what Colorado Stamp Company came up with!!

So many possibilities...I went graphic like a t shirt.

I masked the seeded image so that the leafy avo would have a center as well.

Lovely Princess

 

 

 

 I'm still taking coloring classes at Kit and Clowder. ;)

This past month was a beautiful princess.

At first my husband snickered a little (he's always supportive, by the way); he thought it was so "cute" I was coloring a princess.

ha!

Anyhoo, he snickered NO MORE when he saw the finished result.

He was super impressed!

He couldn't believe I colored this~

I'm grateful Alyce  breaks the classes into sections.

I've taken chapter by chapter, so as not to be overwhelmed.
