circus..the craft's meow

Hey everyone! I hope you are having a FUN{TACHE}TIC day!! Hehe okay so I am a dork :) Can I just tell you I LOVE these stamps..they are from The Craft's Meow this is their 2 newest sets. I used the owl and the mustache.. I paper pieced the whole card.. I was going for a circus/ring master effect.. I hope I did it :)

I wanted the "curtain" to be more like fabric, and curled up the scallops..

I gave him a stool to sit on.. :) anyways.. this is a super simple, and fun card from me.. HUGS

You Rock! Unity FWF

Hey everyone! I am trying to get some of my lost mojo back.. so I decided to do a sketch challenge.. I used the sketch from Sketch Sat.. it's a super fun and easy one to do.. :) That's right up my alley.. Don't forget to stop by Unity's FWF and link up :)

There are a lot of details on this card.. one fun element is.. for the clouds I used a tree top.. from unity called bella trees I loved the size of this tree top.. and needed a cloud that size for my rocket..

I also wanted a lot of textures, and dimension on this card.. so I ended up rolling up the puffs coming off the rocket, and the clouds.. :) Hope you can see that here..I used MME patterned paper, and black puffy paint to go around the letters and the rocket.. :) Thanks for looking at my simple creation today! hugs

Littly boy...

Hey everyone! Well I have to tell you my mom is amazing!! She really is.. after visiting the hospital 3 times yesterday with Liberty.. she thought I needed a "crafty break!" She totally knows that "creative time" for me is the best stress reducer.. So I got to play.. :) I have to tell you I love Unity Stamps. The quality of the stamps are amazing, and the designs ROCK! :) So I grabbed one of my favorites for now.. it's called "in the clouds." I never feel like I have enough boy cards, and I feel like they are so much harder to create then girly cards.. so I wanted to give it a whirl.. :)

All my paper is from Cosmo Cricket collection social club. (I LOVE Cosmo Cricket papers).. they are having a sketch contest going on right now too.. so I thought I would join in! :)

For the "road" in my card I used some teal/blue patterned paper, I pleated it for fun, and some cream twine to make it look like the "lines" of the road :)

I really wanted to give this card textures, so I grabbed my Martha Stewart shredding scissors and made some "grass... I love the patterns that were in this collection and I thought they would be perfect..

I ended up pop dotting the clouds, and adding some paper piercing around the clouds and the whole card for added dimension. Oh I also used Unity burnt amber ink.. it's more of a brown.. and I love the feel it gave the card.. I distressed the heck out of it..:)

Thanks so much for your sweet comments about Liberty.. I am hoping she will be okay now.. :)

HUGS to everyone who leave me comments.. they really make my day! :)
