Hey Dude.

I made another fun boy robot card.  I love the caption of "Hey Dude" that I put with it.  Fun, I think.

29 July 2010

Happy birthday, human.

I attempted a silver-colored robot here, with this color combination.  Thoughts?



I do love robots!

27 July 2010

This stamp came in an Inkadinkado stamp set I purchased.  The ribbon has more defined lines, which are more visible when viewing the card in person.

Robot, with gemstones.

Another of the CAS cards I made recently. 


I need to get some more stamps, other than cats, robots, and flowers, heh.  Any suggestions on some worth adding to my collection?

Clean and simple cards to come.

I have been making a number of clean and simple cards.  I will share these over the next week.


A few I added gemstones to some of them, which I think adds a little something.  I tried to find a good color of cardstock that worked with a silver-colored robot, but have yet to figure a good one out.  If anyone has suggestions, let me know.

Quick and simple.

After some trials with the originally planned card, I came up with this card.

"You're the best!"

Another thank you card.  This one I really like. 

I colored the cat with a new marker I purchased some time back.  I hadn't used it until now.  I absolutely love how smooth it colored and how well the marker works with stamped images. The marker is a Memento Dual Marker.  I definitely intend to purchase more colors from this product line soon.

A cute thank you card.

Another with the Recollections stamp set and the same cat.  I like how the two pink colors work together for the yarn ball.  I really like this cat, so will have a number of cards with this cat, of different color combinations.

A CAS card.

Another card that could easily be used for a birthday card or a sympathy card for the loss of someone who really lived during their lifetime.

The Cat's Meow!

I made this card using my new Recollections stamp set.  I love this set of stamps!  I love how the rainbow-colored yarn ball turned out.  I really like how this card turned out.  I really do.



Here is a side shot to show the raised yarn ball:



Expect a number of cards with this and other stamps from the set for awhile.  *smile*

It's not the length of life...

I made this card this evening.  This quote allows for the card to be either a sympathy card, in memory of someone who had a full life, or to be a birthday card. I like the flower petals pointed upward on the card.  I would like to know others' secret of how to put a card with flowers of depth into an envelope and the card to remain in tact.

I am making cards all weekend, so I should be sharing more cards this week.

Nothing on this earth...

This tag is a quote from St. Thomas Aquinas:  "There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than friendship." 

07 July 2010

Outloud.

Another lovely tag I made this weekend.  This one says "Live out loud."  I think it just may fit this picture.  *smile*

A woman of very few words.

This tag includes a Mae West quote:




In case it is blurry, it says, "I am a woman of very few words but lots of action."

Finally!

Unfortunately, I have less energy to post now that I have a job.  I generally do crafty things on the weekends only these days.

I do have crafty things to share this week, though!  As time has allowed, I have spent time making tags this weekend.  I have a long way to go in terms of tags, but I think they look alright... I will share them throughout this week.

Here is one of the tags I made:
