I think that most moms and/or dads read this book to their little ones before that first day of school. I know I did! It is the sweetest story. I had to try to make a card based on that book. I used the colors and layout and even managed to get the kissed hand in there! Once again this card is for the GinaK challenge for a chance to be a center stage designer (crossing my fingers!) for a month. This is my third entry and I may be able to squeeze one more in. There is one more card floating around in my head, if it comes together I will be back before the day is done. I used the stamp set called "Happy Spring". The card stock is from the GinaK pure luxury line - Lemon Drop, In the Navy, and a tad of Passionate Pink. I also used the star Cuttlebug folder for the background and some sparkly flowers. I did a little coloring with my Copics. The most work was masking and cutting all those gloves (hands) to make the border on the bottom. Thanks for the look!
Today I have two cards to share with you only because I ran out of time last night! I was having too much fun stamping to sit at the computer. The first card is called Thanks. It was made for my neighbor who is just the sweetest 85 year old man. He gave me my first orchid so I chose that stamp to highlight the card. He stopped by tonight to tell me how much he liked the card. So here is the card made for a StampTV challenge that was to make a card with an Asian flair. I did like how it turned out. I used the Lovely Shelf stamp set from GinaK.
The next card I made tonight and I made it for my best Bud in WI - it was also for the StampTV sketch challenge. I got my order of stamps in and this is just too much fun. I love them all! I used the paper that came with the stamp set - the only thing is that I wanted to use just a little bit since I can't find it online to buy more! The stamp set I used was Happy Spring. I did a lot of paper piecing with this one and my wonderful Nestibilities. A few of my Copics to just lightly color in. It was a fun card to make.
