Get Well

This card is for a friend who just had heart surgery.  I CASE'd it from a card by mamamostamps.

I used Crumb Cake and Real Red markers on the flowers.  The doily border is a Martha Stewart punch but the SU Eyelet border punch would be a good substitute as well. I sponged the doily edge with Crumb Cake and also sponged all around the outside edge of the card. The doily border is a separate little piece attached to the card with the top edge hidden by the ribbon which is Chocolate Chip 5/8" taffeta.  The little tags are punched out using the Jewelry Tag punch and attached with a pin from Vintage Trinkets.  Hope my friend likes this card :-)

Nature Walk

I just got this stamp set from Stampin'Up and love the vintage look. I'm not that great at coming up with vintage cards but I'm going to make a stab at it. This card was spurred along by a sketch challenge and a color challenge. What more help could I ask for.

I started with the birdcage stamp on white cardstock. I then inked up the bee stamp but stamped it off once before stamping next to the birdcage so it wouldn't be too bold. I did that 3 times. Then I did the same thing with the no.147 stamp.  I used the ink pad around the edges of this piece and then matted it with Pear Pizzazz and then Rich Razzleberry. I think you can tell the rest pretty easily by looking at the photo.
