GC52 Kraft

This is my last card as a guest artist on the Gingersnap Creations blog.  The challenge was to use kraft cardstock so I made this nature themed card.  The mushroom stamp is by Onyx Xpressions and the word "nature" is part of a large scrapbooking stamp about the great outdoors.  The dot background is a Papertrey Ink stamp.

GC51 Random Redhead Challenge-Botanical

This is the card I made as guest designer for the Gingersnap Creations Botanical challenge.  The stamp is from Magenta and I colored it with copics.  The background is direct to paper with pigment ink pads.

GC48 Random Redhead Challenge-Growth

This is my card for Gingersnap Creations growth challenge.  The stamp of the girl planting flowers is Beeswax, colored with copics.  All other stamps are Posh Impressions.  The background is a TJ technique called Glimmer Mist Watercolors.

GC50 Found Objects

Here is the card I created for Gingersnap Creations Found Objects challenge.  I found these bottle caps while walking my dog in the park.  First I flattened the bottle caps in my wizard.  Then  I punched out Altered Pages images, placed them in the flattened bottlecaps and then filled them with Glossy Accents.

Exciting news-GC guest artist for April

Gingersnap Creations invited me to be a guest designer for the month of April.  This means I will be playing along with their four monthly challenges.  The first has been posted and the theme is The Good Earth.  I have to admit I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to do with this theme, but decided to make a scenic card.  The stamp with the deer and animals is a favorite stamp of mine and I added other images to create the scene.

GC 46 Spicy Supply-Frosting

As soon as I saw this challenge at Gingersnap Creations, I knew exactly what I wanted to use--my embossing icing from The Stencil Collection.  I like to collect stencils as well as stamps and this heron stencil makes a very pretty Asian themed card.  I used the TJ technique, Faux Velvet on the background.
