Tiny Little Die-Cut Pieces:-)

I have been working on these little critters and things for quite a while and some are not even finished! Not sure what I'm going to do with them, but they are pretty cute - and tedious!! The dies are from Gina K. There are dies for everything - even the tiny little beaks and eyes! I did use black Nuvo drops for some of the eyes - easier. LOL!

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

Cheery Daisy Thank You

I came across this mini stamp set from Altenew and just had to use it. I didn't think I had ever used it in the past, but then I could tell that it had some slight black ink staining, so I guess that I had. At any rate, here is ... again, I guess. I colored it quite simply with Copic markers. I doodled around the edges and matted it with black. I added three black nail head stickers to the image panel and another three to the card base. I added some patterned paper to the bottom of the card base and then a very thin strip of black above that. The image panel is mounted on foam squares. I always think daisies, yellow and black make such a cheery card.

Stair-Step Daffodils


I keep thinking I need to do a special fold card of some sort, so here is one. Not terribly "special" but different from standard. Here is a stair-step card - or one variation of it. I cut several of them a few years ago to give to friends, but I still had one blank one left. I covered the entire front with the black and white patterned paper. The image is the last one that I had of this kind.


The sentiment is from a stamp and die set from Gina K. The die-cut that it is mounted on is also from Gina K.

Patterned Paper Cards

This flower image has been in my card parts for years. I still have one more of them to use. I colored it to match some other patterned paper, but after it was colored I decided that it really didn't match! So, I went with some black and white patterned paper instead. I cut that paper in half, so of course I had to use the other piece, too. The sentiments on both cards were done with Gina K stamps and dies and popped up. 
The bicycle paper is from the same matstack as the black and white piece. I added "nail head" stickers to both cards. I see they are a little crooked on this second card, but I have since straightened them out.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!
