Our granddaughter Gena just turned two! They grow up so fast! Here’s the card I made for her birthday.
Basic Grey Phoebe 6×6 pad pattern paper….Tilda on her inner-tube from the Magnolia Summer rubber stamp collection…sentiment from AmuseArt stamps
copics used…E30 31 33, YG13 17, R81 83 85, BG000 45, R000 00 30, E93
So…what do you do with all these cute images??? Somebody somewhere came up with this stair step card idea and it worked so well for these girls! The tutorial was in Splitcoaststampers weekly newsletter this week and it was just the trigger I needed to get going on these images! So…without further ado, I introduce you to the Sugarplums Beachie girls!

I stamped in Memento black ink on Neenah supersmooth classic crest white card-stock and colored with copic sketch markers. Border punches by Martha Stewart and Fiskars. Sand paper from True Value! The word stamps are from a Summer set by Technique Tuesday. The sun punch is an EK Success Paperkins punch. Hope they make you smile! There is NO DOUBT it’s Summer in Iowa today…humidity off the chart and HOT! ick, stickeeeeeeee!

Boxes….so much fun for children and Mo from Mo’s Digital Pencil has captured this little guy, setting out on his journey, perfectly! I LOVE him! How many times growing up, did we use paper plates for something on a creation!!! He’s colored with copic sketch markers and die cut with nestabilities rectangles. The tracks stamp is from Stampin up and the 100% boy circle is from a Recollections clear set from Michaels. See ya later aligator!
Hope and Grace Snuggle – I like to call it Bunny Hugs!

I love the Anya stamps from the Greeting Farm and today on their Anyaversary they are introducing more new Anya’s and new images! I’ve been anxious to get this new to me Snuggle Bunny Sprout stamped up and colored and went ahead and did her not even thinking that an Anya would have been better! oh my mind!!! Anyway, I do have an Anya post here and she’s cool!
Here’s a little different angle shot of this snuggle bunny gal…love her and I’ll be posting more Anyas soon!
The pattern paper I used here is Girl Friday by Cosmo Cricket…oh HOW can two sheets of double sided paper have so many colors of pink in them! It was a challenge to decide which copics to use. I ended up using the R3 series. The flower is a Quickutz die and the button is from a Making Memories embellishment jar.
My inspiration for this card came from Mariska…a wonderful copic artist!
Thanks for “hopping” by! I appreciate it!
