Gorjuss Girls - MOJO83

After almost 2 weeks off from work, it always takes me a few days to get back into the swing of things. That getting up at 4:50 AM takes its toll for the first few days, so I have been out like a light by 9 not leaving room for anything else. When I saw the Mojo Monday Challenge, this card immediately came to mind. This card was made for my son for a Sweet 16 party that he was invited to this Saturday. He knows the amount of work that goes into card making. When he saw this, he said it was to nice that the girl would not appreciate it and would probably throw it out so he will save it for another Sweet 16 party. Boy, did that make me feel special.

Stamp: Sugar Nellie Gorjuss Girl, Sentiment-Penny Black Sweet 16
Ink: Momento Black Ink
Paper: Stampin Up: Pink Pioruette, Purely Pomegranite, Basic Grey-

Friday Sketch #48




Well, I kinda got my sketches mixed up this morning, guess I needed that second cup of coffee before I attempted to do 2 challenges at a time. This image was originally colored in for the new Magnolia challenge, well that was until I cut her out in the oval. It was then that I realized that it was the Friday Sketch that required the oval, and not the Magnolia one... So this is my take on the Friday Sketch challenge... Happy with how it turned out..
This is a close up of the flowers on the bottom. It is the first time I used my MS butterfly punch, and I love it... Thanks Tammi

Thanks for looking..Debbie

Swan Song


May is filled with tons of birthdays for us, there is a birthday a week beginning with my MIL's and ending with my BIL's and then of course Mother's Day. So to get things started especially since I am home this week, I decided to get a jump start on some of my cards.


I decided I didn't want to do anything cutesy since it was for my MIL's Birthday so out came the brayer again. First I stamped the swan in Versa Mark and Staz-On put on clear embossing powder and heat embossed. I then colored in her beak and gave her a little shadowing. I went over the entire image with my Versa Marker Pen carefully staying within the lines put on clear embossing powder and then heat embossed. Out came the brayer, and I brayered Bashful Blue at an angle at the top and bottom leaving a little white it the middle, and sponged more Bashful blue along the top and bottom to create a little depth. I then stamped in the Willows using Old Olive Ink and colored in the branches with my aqua painter using a lighter green Kiwi Kiss, I also used my Chocolate Chip SU Maker to outline some of the branches and my White Gel pen to highlight the willows. To create the horizon I used a Post-it-Note and sponged more Bashful Blue going across the post-it-note. Last but not least, I used my tree from stampscapes and placed the tree over the swan, and then sponged on Old Olive to create some of the leaves.
Thanks for stopping by
