Doesn’t this make you think “Indian Summer”? Well, I hope we get one! a LONG one!!! This is Inky Impressions new Lili roller skating…so cute in her ta da stance! Stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with copic sketch markers, drew in the sidewalk and grass. The falling leaves is part of a Magnolia of Sweden stamp. I used my stamp a ma jig and stamped it in parts here and there around Lili. The corner stamps and sentiments by Inkadinkado here and here, are clear stamps…the small sets and stamped up great with Versafine ink. I tried the Toffee color in the corners and really liked it on this Stampin Up card-stock. The pattern Papers are October Afternoon…love them!!!

My card today is for Inky Impressions Challenges #18…be sure to stop over and see the Inspirational Inkettes cards, join the fun and create a card or project using Inky Impressions stamps and fall colors. Here’s a close-up of Lili…

Bright Wishes Lili
The Ways to Use it challenge at Splitcoast stampers this week is Say it With Pizzazz. Here is my submission. I used my new to me Lili with a birthday cake and Printworks Bright Wishes sentiment. My pizzazz is the birthday candles I punched from my EK Success candle border punch. I replaced the “i” in the words with the punched candles. I punched them in white card-stock and colored them with copic markers.

This is a matchbook gift card holder type card. Open it up and see the envelope that I trimmed to fit and punched with a one inch circle punch. I could not get the words to be in focus for the inside…weird…not a good picture day for sure…she is so much better IRL! I’ll have to take pictures again when the sun comes out…ugh! It’s Iowa and we’ve been accused that all we talk about is the weather so I’m trying not to complain…so the positive side is, the grass never turned brown this year!!!
Happy Card Making DAY!!!!

Leisel and her wheelbarrow

Leisel and her wheelbarrow is from CC Designs, just the cutest thing…yep, there’s my signature little white flowers too! Colored with copic sketch markers. Hope she makes you smile!

This will be mounted on a piece of 6×6 wood, edges sanded and hopefully it’ll work in a grouping on a wall in her room or playroom.
