April Birthday card

Happy Easter! 

It's for a male friend whom I sometimes call "funny monkey" (!! in a nice way. wz some love). 

I used Lawn Fawn stamps set and dies. I love their "critter" series. For the background, I used their "cloud" dies, to use them as "masking" to make a sky. I didn't buy the coordinating dies to this stamps set, so I used scissors but their images aren't intricate to cut. I used 3D foam tape to adhere some of the leaves, to give some dimensions. 

Hope you all are having a wonderful Easter.

Masculine Birthday Card

I needed to make a Masculine birthday card, and saw this sketch at this week's challenge at Mojo Monday Blog . Here is my card. The recipient is a Pittsburgh Penguins' Fan (NHL). I don't like "Black & Gold" but it's Team's color so I can't change. lol :-) Hockey Jersey is from Stamps N'More which I bought last summer at stamp convention. I've never used this stamp til now :-) The skate is from INKADINKADO. It's a Roller skate but since he plays roller hockey, it's fine :-) I stamped Lawn Fawn's Cheveron pattern and trimmed one side, to make it close to the sketch. The sentiment is from Penny Black. All stamped images were heat embossed. The hockey jersey is adhered with pop up glue dots for a bit of dimention.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Enjoy the rest of the WARM weekend! :)

Graduation Card

This is a card for the sketch at Mojo Monday challenge, and I have less than 10mins. to post! lol. Here is the sketch & my card. I used "star" embossing folder for background, for both black & silver CS. The stamp is $1.00 at Joann! :-) I heat embossed the image.

Penny Black Sat. challenge wk 139

This weeks' challenge at PB sat. is "Men's Card", so I made it rather simple, trying not make it shiney/pearly nor cute. It's hard, NOT to be cute with Penny black stamps but this is what I made. I recently received this Penny Black stamp from Kathy R (thank you Kathy!!) & wanted to use it! I did a bit of "cutting" for this image, dimentional foams on the owl's wings only. I used glossy accent on their eyes. I stamped vine on the background CS, and used the printed woodgrain paper. I'm sure I'm DECORATING more using the same image Next Time, for more girly card! lol! :-)

Penny Black Sat. Challenge wk118

This week's theme is MEN/BOYS. I hardly make this kind of cards, but when i saw this stripe paper about a month ago, i thought this would be great for boys card so i bought it, even i didn't plan to use it anytime soon. And here it is. I could use it for this card for this theme at PB challenge! :-) I used Souffle pen from Sakura for those white tiny dots by the party hats. I didn't mean to buy this pen but when i was looking for another kind of pen, the store clerk introduced me, and i tried it in the store, and i liked it, so i bought it. I haven't used it often but i like how it looks when it dries, very much. It's like gel pen (opaque) but has more Clear Plastic look to it, giving a FUN look! :-) Hope i can use this pen more often! :-) i used glitter glue (sparkle) on the top of the party hats, and used baby blue glitter glue on the lines on party hats. Main image is attached with pop up glue dots.

Father's day/Male card on Simon Says Challenge

this is my submission to this challenge. Although my father passed away at his young age, i'll send this to my mom and she will stand this up by my father's pic. :-) The colors of the sunset is just like the one in Guam... 2nd pic. is inside of the card.

Birthday cards for Men & an extra!

First card is for Hockey player & fan, and the second card is for an older man. This was the fisrt time i used Jolee's boutique stickers on the card. The skate is a stamp. Inside of the second card, I stamped "Aged to perfection"! The additional card (the 3rd one) is the similar design, made it for another older lady, but it's 3-d on wine glass & wine bottle, and gave a glitter on "happy birthday". I enjoyed coloring wine cards, with watercolor pencils.
