Indian Summer
Hello Dear Friends!
I have another card to share. This time I used the gorgeous Wyanet (from Wee Stamps). I colored her with Copics, ProMarkers & ShinHan Markers. I added a bit of a glitter with Stickles. Papers are ancient that I've got from Archiver's (by Bo Bunny) I bet at least 5 years ago. Ribbon is from Papertrey Ink (Dark Chocolate) and flowers are from my stash.
Easy peasy ....
Enjoy!

Happy Birthday, Girlfriend!
Good Evening Everybody,
One of my sweet Friends just celebrated her Birthday and this is the card I made for her.
The image is called Happy Hour by Kenny K. I colored her with Copics & ProMarkers & ShinHan. I love all of them - and they seem to work well together too!
The papers are old from my stash. I haven't bought new paper in aaages, so I don't even know what's new. Flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. I can't wait to run out of Roses, I am eyeballing those cute Sweetheart Blossoms & Chrysanthemums. The lacy ribbon is from American Crafts and I really love this one - I wish I could find more - as I am just about to run out. I used a little bit of 3D Crystal Lacquer on the glass and sparkle Stickles on the dress & flowers.

It's a girl!
Hello there,
I have a new sweet card to share with you. My youngest daughter is three, so I am just about entering "the baby fever" stage ... I hope it passes soon!!! xixixixi
For the first time I used crackle paint. It's amazing to me that I have all these supplies and these amazing ideas to use them for, but hardly ever do ... I must change that!
I was inspired by Mariska's card, but this time I did not use her absolutely fabulous 3D technique, just a simple image (colored with copics & promarkers).

Homemade Bath Salts & Card To Go With It
Hello there,
I have been trying to do this project (I was originally inspired by Lisa at Poppy Paperie). I just love her simple style and the set she has designed Just for You (at Papertrey Ink). It is one of my favorite.
Anywhoo... here is the card and a little package with the Bath Salts.
I used Epsom Salt (1 cup), Baking Soda (1 tbs), Vitamin E oil, Grapefruit Fragrance & Orange Coloring (both from Hobby Lobby).
It smelled divine! Yum!
The card was made with Kraftin' Kimmie's Image and Graphic 45 Papers (one of my all time fave). I even got to use my new Spellbinder Borders (Scalloped #1).
The Front
The Inside Stamp is from the Just Rite Keep Calm Collection (absolutely wonderful). I think I do need to get the die with it - or need to figure out how to do the silhouette cut with it, so it can look a lot better.
The Inside (of the Card)
I gave it to my sweet friend Angela, who is one of the sweetest and most wonderful friends. We've just met this year, but I feel like we've known each other forever!
I hope you enjoyed this & don't forget ... there is more where this came from, so
don't forget to order yours! :-)
You can visit my store at Sassy Peonies.
Hugs,
