Here is another stamp from Memory Box. Simple but elegant. I really love the polka dot paper and the pearl bling on the flowers add the finishing touch.

I am off to Ink About It tomorrow. So excited; hope to find some interesting goodies!

An Island Feel

Another Memory Box day. The hibiscus flowers are so beautiful. I used AMUSE Popsicle pink paper, memory box printed paper, rose pink ink for the solid hibiscus, Copic RV10 and a hint of a red spica and clear pen for accents on the flowers. The sentiment is from Rosies Roadshow. Let's not forget the pearl bling!

Spring is in the air

The fantastic weather we are having inspired me to create this card with 3 happy sunflowers! Can't you just feel them smiling up at you. What a nice reminder that spring is on the way.

I used copic Y21 and Y38 on the flowers and YG23 and YG63 on the leaves. I gave them each a little glitz with a clear glitter pen and olive spica pen.

Las Vegas

I took the photos below for my friend Kerry. The Venetian had a great display for Chinese New Year!





Momma G's V-Day Card Event






I am so behind on posting. I have been away for two weeks - Las Vegas and California. I miss the palm trees but I am glad to be home. So here's the scoop.

My son is an RA at UNH and one of his responsibilities is to plan events for his residents. He asked me to teach a Valentine Card activity for his residents. I agreed. I prepared 20 packets; only expecting about 4. But what a surprise I had 19 - 13 GUYS and 6 young ladies. They seemed to have a good time. The guys really liked the bling and were really into coloring with Copics.

We made a card with an owl image from Memory Box. I had seen a similar sample at Ink About It. The other was a treat holder using images from AMUSE - gumball machine or heart balloons. A great time had by all!

Enjoy a few photos from Momma G's event.
