Find Joy Everyday

 

 

img_22591

Super cute Edwin,  Tilda and the butterflies are from the Magnolia of Sweden rubber stamp company,  Spring Club Sheet of stamps.  I love coloring these images with copic sketch markers – simply CUTE, CUTE, CUTE!!!  Find joy everyday sentiment is from a Hero Arts clear stamp set.  Flower is the EK Success retro medium flower punch,  leaves are a Martha Stewart punch and the button brad is from Making Memories. The pattern paper is the Dill Blossom pad from Michael’s.  I like to use the Canson 9×12 tablet of Manga drawing paper to stamp and color with the copic markers.  It’s heavier than 80# cover card-stock and really blends nicely.  Oh,  I almost forgot,  I used a Martha Stewart double scallop border punch also.  I haven’t seen any butterflies yet,  but I saw a wasp yesterday.  Dandelions,  ground ivy and violets are showing up big time! lol  My granddaughters love them!   Spring is here!

Meet Madge

Do you know….April is stress awareness month?  Madge has a message for YOU!  Stuff Happens!

Madge is a rubber stamp from Art Impressions.  Stuff happens is from Wordsworth.  I colored Madge w/copic sketch markers….almost looks like she was having a bad hair day! lol  I’m sure she’s thinking about how splotchy her skin is too!  hehehe

The Challenge:  Do you think Julie is going to have a baby boy or baby girl?  Well,  she already has boys, so I picked “a girl”!   So,  the gals in the area swap group were to make her an atc according to what we decided.

Here’s my girl ATC.  She really is ATC size,  2.5 in. x 3.5 in.  Six cuts on the cricut to get her nice and chipboard thick…the cartridge is Stretch Your Imagination.  She’s kinda goofy looking cute!  lol

Stamp club swap today

I love the look of real kids for creating artist trading cards.  This one really went all out in decorating her hat with flowers and lace….and the glasses???  so cute!   A really simple ATC to bring a smile and hopefully bring back fond memories of your growing up years.

I computer generated the sentiment after a friend translated it for me from french….THANKS Alice!

Then punched with McGill’s keyhole plates punch and stamped a tone on tone rose background stamp by Alesa Baker (Impression Obsession stamp company) on the punched piece….

The pearls are from Hero Arts…
