Sandy is Having a Party!


(Sandy drew this little guy.
 I colored him for a birthday card.)

Sandy Allnock is an awesome teacher. I've enjoyed 
her videos on YouTube and her Copic Jumpstart class.
Her Hex Chart is such a helpful tool for seeing
and picking colors at a glance.
I'm planning to take another Copic class soon.
I'm trying to decide between the Autumn Scenes and
Winter Wonderland classes! Or maybe both?!
(Edit: I signed up for Autumn Scenes!!)

Check out her classes and giveaways and discounts 
on her Grand Reopening HERE .

This is a Mo Manning image I colored.

WCMD October Card Kit Sympathy Card

I used the SSS Card Kit large floral image
for this sympathy card. 
The sentiment is from the SSS
 Prayers stamp and die set.
I used Distress oxides on this card and
added some splatters to finish it off.

WCMD October Card Kit


Friends of ours just celebrated their
50th anniversary. 
I heat embossed the image and
painted it in with Distress Oxide Inks.
Love this image from the October SSS
Card kit.

More WCMD Cards


 I used the October Card Kit for this one 
plus the SSS 1 Corinthians 13 background with
sticky embossing powder and red foil. There is
sparkle over the whole card!
I used round sponge daubers to color in
the flowers with Distress Inks. Very quick & easy
with a few SSS sequins to finish it off.


I used the SSS Poinsettia set for this card. 
(I made 4 of them at the same time.)
I  stamped on watercolor paper and used
 Distress Inks to color them.
There are those gorgeous SSS sequins again!
The sentiment is an old wood 
mounted stamp I had on hand.
The centers of the flowers are dotted
with Liquid Pearls.


World Card Making Day

HAPPY WORLD CARD MAKING DAY!

Don't tell my farmer husband that
I am glad it is too wet for
us to be in the field today!
 I got to make cards for once!!

I am loving the October SSS card kit!
Here are 2 alcohol ink cards I made.
No sentiments yet till I decide who
 they are blessing! I used some gold foil
on them before they were completely dry and
then used the alcohol lift ink pad that came in
 the kit to remove the floral stamp image.



One thing I learned.....make sure your
 stamp is CLEAN before you
use the lift ink pad and stamp with it.
