More Coloring

I was home yesterday with a sick child.  We did some stamping and coloring.  Then I turned a few of those images into cards.

Girl and Boy from Sarah Kay Digital Stamps

This was my first attempt coloring people.  I didn't do a lot of shading, but am still happy with the results for my first one.

Thanks stopping by,

One Last Snow Day

It snowed Sunday night into Monday morning.  Schools were closed and so was my work.  While I enjoyed our snow day, I do hope it is the last one for this winter.  I am ready for spring.  My girls and I stayed in our pj's all day and just played inside.  I made a few more cards using my new stamps and a few new Copics I got at Michael's Sunday afternoon.  I had been waiting for a couple weeks for them to go on sale.  

Last week I was looking at some the cards on the Lawn Fawn Blog for inspiration.  There are so many cute ones out there.  I also had a printed a few layouts from the MOJOMonday Blog as well.  Here's what I made.

Sydney's Birthday

Its very hard for me to believe that my baby is going to turn eight on Saturday.  Where has the time gone?  She has been doing a lot of stamping with me lately and has even been allowed to use my Copics when I am there watching over her. I found these cute little digi stamp at Bugaboo Stamps called "Birthday Monsters". They have some of the cutest stamps I have seen.  I fell in love with this one immediately.  I haven't colored a scene this full before and really enjoyed doing this one.  I can't wait for Sydney's birthday so I can give her this card.

Having fun coloring

I have been watching so many videos lately and getting all kinds of inspiration for cards.  I bought some new stamps sets from Lawn Fawn and Hero Arts.  My girls and I have been having lots of fun coloring with my Copics.  I have four cards I want to share.

The first card is made with the "little hoot" stamp set from Hero Arts.  I stamped the owls and then cut them out.  



The next card I made with another stamp set from Hero Arts called "Missing You".  I again stamped and cut out the sheep and then adhered them all.  I stamped the clouds and grass as well.

  
The next one I made with a stamp set from Hampton Art Foot Long Clear Stamps called "Warm Fuzzies".  I used my Copics again.


The final card I made was from a digi stamp I found at "Little Scraps of Heaven Designs" blog.  I used Stickles on the umbrella and rain after I colored them.  This card is 5 1/4 x 5 1/4.
