Greeting Farm, Just Wavin Hello

Hi everyone, here is a little card I made while my Mom was here using The Greeting Farm's Magic Kit girl (not sure of her name).  I made her a cute bandana hat, even though I think that was her hair.  I also used Lawn Fawn die cut for waves and the little fish die.  A super quick, fun card. Thanks for peeking.  

Entering this in the Greeting Farm August challenge.  The theme is summertime!

My Mom Made it!

Hi all, my Mom is here visiting me for the past week so that we could take a Sandy Allnock watercolor and comic class together at Stamp Fever in California.  It was so much fun.  

Of course, in our down time we got to play together with our stamp sets and my Mom made this adorable birthday card out of "Potted Pretties" by Mama Elephant.  The word stamp and the tray are both from Lawn Fawn, and it all worked together.  

She colored this with Zig Watercolor pens. I love it! We are entering it into the Anything Goes challenge #132 at 7kidsCollege Fund.  

Summertime Mermaid with The Greeting Farm

Hi, I wanted to share a card I made for the Greeting Farm August card challenge, the theme is SUMMERTIME! I was excited since I have the Magic Kit, and they all are summery.  I chose to use the mermaid, so cute.

I tried a new technique coloring the two blue parts first with Memento dye and a sponge, with the white part blocked off.  Then I used the Thanks die and cut out 4 copies of the word and stacked them up.  I added a seaweed diecut.  I colored the mermaid with Copics, and used Cryogen paper so she's kind of sparkly.

This will be entered in the August Farm Fresh challenge at TGF.  Thanks for visiting.

Mini-Notebooks

I have really been enjoying the Papertrey Ink Challenges lately and here is my entry for this week's Challenge, make a Die Cut mini notebook.  I used corrugated cardboard for the backing and the paper is by WeRMemoryKeepers called Hall Pass.

I used 2 Papertrey Ink teacher sets for the stamping.  The first is the PTI Teacher's Apple Stamp set.  

  The second is PTI TagIts #6, Mini Stamp Set.

I also added google eyes because what kid doesn't love googly eyes.  Here is the challenge link which also has a wonderful video tutorial on how to make the mini-notebooks:

The Greeting Farm Challenge - Card #1

Good Morning, here are two cards I made for the Greeting Farms July challenge which is Blue, White and Red.  I wanted to experiment with my Zig watercolor pens and was playing around.  

The first card was embossed with stars first then watercolored.  

Here are the challenges:  The Greeting Farm Red White Blue Challenge.  The little girl is from the Magical Kit and I was glad to have a chance to color her up.  

 Thanks for peeking and have a great day!

The Greeting Farm July Challenge Card #2

Good Morning, here is the second card I made for the Greeting Farms July challenge which is Blue, White and Red.  I wanted to experiment with my Zig watercolor pens and was playing around.  

The first card was embossed with stars first then watercolored.  

The second card below was made by pressing the cardstock into ink dye on my table.  I did use red ink even though it came out a little pinkish!

Watercolor Make-it-Monday #218

Hi everyone, now that things are settling a little Ive been trying to get in as much card making time as possible.  

 I really love the rainbow of colors that this card ended up with.  I made for Make it Monday at Papertrey Ink, the challenge was to use a die and watercolor.  

The "Hello" die I used is from Lawn Fawn, I used Zig Watercolor pens and the coffee cups are from Papertrey Ink - Heart2heart Mini Stamp Set #1.  I also had the coffee cup dies so I used that as a background to pop up the cups.  The cups are colored with Copics and I paper pieced some coordinating paper on the cups.  Phew.

Thanks for peeking and hope you have a crafty week.
