It's a beautiful Mocha Morning...

I was at a crop on the weekend and my friend sam had her idea books out and we came upon this sketch that we both loved. I decided to open up my Mocha Morning DSP (p.183 of the Stampin'Up! idea book and catalogue) and made these cards following the sketch.
I just LOVE them...in fact I made several to have on hand. They are so elegant and rich, and remind me of expensive chocolate! i made the butterflies using the Sizzix big Shot die beautiful Butterflies (p.222).

"And now for something completely different..."

Hey, look at that...cards! I made these for the Button Buddies specialty class that was held in March. It was so popular that I am hosting another Button Buddies class on May 1st!
The class cost is 35.00 and INCLUDES the clearmount Button Buddies stamp set. You will make these 3 cards PLUS a bonus card that I am not posting because it is a surprise! Contact me to register for this class.


Thanks for stopping by!

Are you REALLY going to blog?

Yes.
I mean it this time.
No, really!
It has been a few months, and things are settling down. We lost our beautiful cat Shawn last month, and I'm still very sad about that. Someday I will do a scrapbook page about him. this is him. He was only 2 years old.


I am still stamping and creating and selling my creations. I am still doing my monthly classes. I am still teaching at day care. And as of today, I am blogging again.
No, really.

My latest Christmas card



I made this using the beautiful Pines and Poinsettias stamp set from the mini catalogue. I used these markers to colour directly on the stamp: Early Espresso, Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green. I added a bit of glitter to the pine cones.


Now, here are some Christmas cards I made using my Copic markers to colour. I just love the blue-green tones.

Stocking card


I am loving the new stocking die for the Big Shot! I used it make this card, which opens from the top. I also used the Holly Berry DSP as the accents on the stocking. The Holly Berry buttons are a perfect match and the Early Espresso quilted ribbon finishes it off! I am loving this Holiday mini catalogue!
