Not very good at this!



Well, I have not been very good about keeping up with my blog, but I am going to try to be better. I have been really into making cards lately-mostly because I have been inspired by so many talented stampers from SCS. I want to stamp all the time but my family gets int he way of that! Just kidding, I love my family. I try to do my stamping in the afternoon(during naps) and in the evening after the kids go to bed. But some nights I am so tired from the day I end up plopping down on the couch and not moving! hehehe So anyway I will post a couple of my cards that I have recently done.





I made this card using my new Doodle This set from Stampin up! I really love this set. I tried to keep it simple because the images are so detailed and I and I didn't want to take away from that. So I used a white base and water colored using my SU aqua painter and classic ink pads. I used Tempting turquoise, Certainly celery and Barely Banana. I also used a sentiment from a SU! hostess set, which name escapes me at the moment!
I made this card for my son's birthday invitaion. He LOVES the movie Cars. I used a grey base and used my cuttlebug embossing flolder on the real red paper. I stamped the image and used my SU water color pencils along with a belnder to color in the image. I doodled a little around the edge to give a little extra. I am pretty happy with this. Luckily I only have a fe to make because it took a while!
So thats it! I have made more but didn't take pictures and already sent them off! I will try to be better about updating my blog!
