U is for Unique

Here is a card I did for an Alphabet swap - U is for Unique.  I thought the idea of stamping a card and then cutting into pieces to make a tiled image was pretty cool.  I had fun with it.  I need to make another card like this!

All About Me

This is a card that I created for an "All About Me" card swap.  As you know from my blog name, I am crazy about ladybugs so of course one had to be on the card.  I love walking my dog, wearing jeans, and enjoy being outside.  I am somewhat of a wine connoisseur and love flowers, gardening, etc.  Also, love bling so had to put some rhinestones on the card.  I thought it turned out well.

Soot Stamping

Have you ever tried Soot Stamping?  This is a really fun technique.  Here is a card that I did with soot stamping.  If you want more details about this technique, let me know.

Z is for.....

Here is a card that I made for an alphabet swap.  I just love these swaps, they really make you think.  I had fun with the Zebra!

Women's Card

Well, I am home with strep throat today and have no energy.  I haven't posted anything here in a while, so wanted to post something.  Here is a card that I did a few weeks ago.  I had to make a women's card for a swap.  I love this new stamp from Stampin Up.  Hope you like it too!

This is a birthday card that I made yesterday for a swap.  I love how it turned out with the pink and the black.  I used some shimmer paint on the wine, which makes it sparkle just a bit.  I used my bow easy to make the bow.  I just love that inexpensive little contraption.  I have really gotten into using my copic marker - C2, to do the shading around images.  I think it provides a little depth.  Let me know what you think of this!

Here is a card that I did for a Vacation Swap.  I couldn't stop thinking of the retreat that I went on recently with some cardmaking friends.  I just had to make this card.  I used muddpuddles to make the sand look like real sand.
