- Patterned paper – BoBunny “Garden Girl Vines”

This is an interpretation of the current CPS sketch, #232. I changed the orientation of the sketch as it was presented to better feature the artwork. I colored the artwork with Copic Markers. The artwork is from Crafter’s Digital Art Center (CDAC), created by Sandi’s Samples. I just bought the Bo Bunny paper today at Stampin’ Cat and was pretty excited to use it with this! Thanks for visiting today.

Lots of cut paper on this one! I made this design up as I went and I think the patterned paper with the cut outs from the punch and die cuts went together well. This card is for the Operation Write Home Stars and Stamps weekly challenge: Thinking of You. Thanks for visiting.

I’m pretty amazed that i’ve posted 100 cards already–just in a few months. Anyway, this is a card made using this week’s sketch on OWH Stars and Stripes: Sketch #81. I like this sketch–it is simple and very easy to apply to any card theme. Thanks for stopping by and checking out the 100th post!

- Stamps – Rubber Soul “Happy Birthday,” Basic Grey “Insignia stamp set”
- Cardstock – Bazzill
I created the background for this card with Colorbox Chalk inks direct to paper and then went in with a starburst stamp (manufacturer unknown) and stamped over the inked layer. This is an extremely simple card, using the CPS Sketch #230. With such a “busy” background, I decided to keep it simple! Thank you for visiting.

- Stamp – Penny Black “Flourish Birthday”
- Patterned papers – Basic Grey “Wisteria: Fountain” and BoBunny “Clover Dot”

This card was inspired by the current sketch at Clean & Simple Stamping – Fall to Layout #152. There is very little stamping involved, just the birthday stamp and inking the edges. I also used the chalk ink to add color to the butterfly, using the die as a stencil. Thanks for visiting.
