Roar Like a Big Cat


I made this cards for two challenges at Splitcoaststampers: CAS123 and TLC329.  I love making cat cards and I couldn't resist matching the big cat sentiment with a small house cat stamp.  I used two different stamp sets from Mark's Finest Papers: "Big Cats" and "More of Speedy the Cat's Friends."  The patterned papers are from Bo Bunny.

All Aboard

I made this card for FS226 at Splitcoaststampers.  I used the soon-to-be-released "All Aboard" stamp set by Mark's Finest Papers.  I stamped the train station scene in black then colored it with Copic markers.  I used a Cuttlebug gear embossing folder for the main panel and a Stampin Up texture embossing folder for the tan panel.  I completed the card by stamping the railroad track onto the twill tape and adding a sentiment.

Class Act Challenge Day

Today is the start of a new challenge for Class Act, Inc. stamps! Today's challenge is a sketch challenge. Head over to the Class Act, Inc. blog to check out the challenge details and to see the beautiful creations by my fellow design team members.


For my card, I used some of the new sea-life stamps from Class Act, Inc.  I stamped, colored them with Copics, then punched them out into six panels.  The blue bubble background is made with a Cuttlebug embossing folder. To complete the card, I added a seahorse, some mesh, and a few jewels.
