Pocket Challenge

Good morning!! Hope you are having a fun weekend!! My DH is working today so I'm playing with my stamps. I used a sentiment from a stamp set that my Daughter Brenda got me for Mother's day.
My card is for two challenges Tina's color challenge over at Stamp TV. To use Burgundy, white and gold. Then Kim has this challenge to THINK POCKETS at Think ink challenge.



I made a gift card holder and tried to make it look like a pocket.



Here is a view of the inside. The ribbon slides off to open the flap and the card goes in it.

Gina's Movie Magic DT Challenge

Hello! Are you ready for some fun? Gina's Challenge is choose a movie that you like and make a card inspired by that movie.
The movie that I decided on is "A River runs Through it" directed by Robert Redford. I love this movie. Here is a photo of the movie CD that inspired me.

Here is my card that I was inspired to make. I decided on Theresa Momber's new set "Gone Fishing" by Gina K. Designs, for my main image. But I never can stop there I also used the mountain background image from Theresa's "Happy Camper" and never one to stop too soon I also added part of the island image from "Life is Good"
This is also for Speedy the Cats Friends Challenge#2 over at Marks Finest Papers to use a corner punch.



Inside of the card I used Gina's " Masculine Messages" and Nina Brackett " Vintage Backgrounds" both of these sets are so perfect to add to any masculine cards. Card stock is by Gina K. Designs.

Hi everybody!! Wow it's the middle of the week already, time sure flies doesn't it? Hope you are having a good week.
I have a card I made using Nina Brackett's new stamp set "Heartily Yours" She has the cutest images in this set.

If you want more inspiration for this set hop over to Gina's blog she has links to other samples.

Purrr-fectly Delightful Blog Hop

Good Evening! Wow I'm really excited to show you some samples of Theresa Momber's newest stamp set "Purrr-fectly Delightful". This is my very favorite set of Theresa's, I love cats and I have a wonderful loving cat thats 15 years old. The images are so beautifully drawn. This first image, vase of flowers is colored with prisma pencils with OMS and highlighted with a white gel pen. Cardstock is from Gina K. Designs.



In this card I did it for winter colors, the DP is Basic Grey and cardstock is Gina K.


For my next card here I used the cat and mouse images from "Purrr-fectly Delightful" and the mailbox image is from "Autumn Beauty" also by Theresa.


My last sample I have is a fun one! Melanie Muenchinger had this template of the pop-up desk free on her blog and I just had to try it. I combined sets for this one, the lamp is from Nina Brackett's "Lovely shelf", the perfume bottles are from Rupa Shevde's "Retro Boutique" and the cat and mouse are from Theresa's "Purrr-fectly Delightful". This is really easy to do and Melanie also has a pattern for an oven, you can get at Gina K. Designs. I got it also but so far don't have anything to cook in it. LOL



This is the front of the card.


All the images and card stock is from and available at Gina K. Designs.

A Green Christmas Card

Good morning! Hope you are all well!
I did this card yesterday for a challenge over at stamp TV. Cindy is hosting the Monday color challenge this week. The colors we are to use are Ivory and (you guessed it!) green. I went with Theresa Momber's wonderful set " Very Merry Christmas" and Nina Brackett's " Vintage Borders" both are available from Gina K. Designs.
I colored the bells with copic's and went over the ribbon with a clear Glaze pen from Sakura , to give the ribbon a little shine. ( which didn't show up in the photo).
I stamped the images in vintage green by Vivid and the card stock is Gina K. The DP is SU and I colored the pearls with copic's.
That is pretty much how I did this card. Hope you have, a great day!!
