Two More Paint Samples

The backgrounds for these images are paint samples - the last ones I'm going to use. I used the same Altenew image stamp as yesterday. I black heat embossed them and colored them with Copics. The sentiment for both is from Gina K - and cut with a Gina K die.

Cheery Birthday

I was digging through my tiny stamp sets and came across this one. I just had to use it. It's from Altenew. The sentiment is from Gina K. I colored it with Copics. I also added a few black nail heads.

June Calendar Page

Not sure how it happened, but it's June already!! Here is my calendar page. The stamps are both from Repeat Impressions. I stamped, colored with Copic markers, and cut out the watermelon. I added the watermelon and sentiment to some gingham paper. Enjoy your summer!

More Marker-to-Rubber Stamp Cards

Marker to rubber stamp, mist and stamp. The sentiments on both of these are from Papertrey Ink.

Birthday and Sympathy

Here are two more cards that I made using marker-to-rubber-stamp method. I used gold on this first birthday card, and black on the sympathy card.  The sentiment is five layers of die-cuts.

The sentiment on this card is from Papertrey Ink.

Sorry For Your Loss

Finally, I'm using one of my flower images that I created by using markers on rubber stamps, then misting before stamping. I have several more stamped images to use up, but this is a start. The sentiment is from Gina K. I fussy cut it and popped it up.

More Paint Samples

I love the color of this patterned paper, and it matched so nicely with some of our paint samples. I have four more backgrounds ready to finish into cards, but this is what I have for now. This first one features a die-cut paint sample and a Gina K stamp.

The butterfly is another paint sample die-cut. The sentiment is from My Favorite Things.

These last two are nearly identical - just different flower dies and slightly different color paint samples. The sentiment is from Gina K. I also added a few sequins.

Wyatt

Since I messed up yesterday and scheduled two posts, I will skip a card today and just share something fun and wonderful. Our youngest grandson, Wyatt, was featured on the NBC Nightly News on Monday evening. You can watch the story here. What an amazing kid he is - so smart and caring and funny and independent and thoughtful. And he is lucky to be so included. I think they did an awesome job with this story.

Dragonfly BIrthday

Another paint sample used on this card. I stamped the flower on it (using an old wood-mounted rubber stamp) and added a touch of color with Copic markers. I also added an enamel dot to the center and matted with a scrap of black. The flower panel is mounted on foam squares before being added to the black. The patterned paper is from a very ancient matstack from Sizzix. The sentiment and die are from Gina K.

Marker on Rubber Stamps

Both of these cards use an old wood-mounted rubber stamp. I used markers to color the image, then spritzed it with water and stamped to the cardstock. This first one uses another old rubber stamp for the sentiment. The sentiment on the second one is from Gina K. The patterned papers are very old from my huge stash of 12 x 12 papers.
