My besties image, colored in pencil. Used an oval stitched die cut at an angle on this card. Layered on a dark blue denim paper full of dots and stripes.

Blue moondrea

 

The image is by Moondra I colored With pencils using ink for the background, I started on a bluish purple card stock and then tried to match up the green using a fun punch that I had as a border on the right side of the card layer the image on top of that used some of the skeleton pieces from the punch on the card as flowers putting a tiny gemstone in the centers. I love the florals in this picture.

Teacup rose

I made this special birthday gift for a dear friend. It’s Diamond art stamped floral teacup in shades of white, peach and wine roses. I got this as a kit, finished it fairly quickly. Went thrifting and found 2 matching frames. This one match perfectly,  I really like beading with Diamond art. And even tho it can be somewhat time consuming, it has become addictive!🤣

Anchor

This is an old rubberstamp that I drug out of my drawer the other day, I used navy ink on white paper and layered it on gray. I also used a little bit of ink around the square that I stamped the image on. I decided to make this a masculine card as I always seem to come up short on those but this one seemed to remind me of that and the sea. And of course I used my favorite happy birthday stamp… It’s very versatile, and it says it all
