picnic aunt

Just couldn’t get this finished yesterday the sketech is from Tuesday morning sketches (.. see below..) and the theme from My Time to Craft – A La Carte ‘We would like to see work that has food of some sort on please! That is why I chose this cute smmer ant. The frames are cut with spellbinders nesties (and if you look close you can see i embossed them backwards in case you ever wondered what putting the rubber on the wrong side would do). The ant and mellon are colored with chalk. I then added the checkered paper, of course, for the checkered tabelcloth feel.. yea summer watermelon eating season!

OLW just ink

The One Layer Wonder challenge today is just ink- layers of stamped images for quick cards… well i did use only stamped images but it wasn’t quick it took a while to get it just right. I did add a little chalk on the vine where the flowers are. The vine and breeze sentiment are from Marks Finest Papers and the whirlwind is from paper trey ink.

Luv watermelons

Most of my challenges are on Tuesday, here’s the first. This card is for Tuesday Morning Sketches(below) and My Time to Craft’s- here comes summer… I love watermelons so that is the summer theme today. I stamped the watermelon(Alias Smith and Rowe) twice once on white and then red, cut out the red and white, chalked the green and added a pink heart . then punched the red hearts… hearts and watermelons how perfect for summer!

June lemon

When life gives you lemons make a lemon card… the Mojo sketch is below, the idea came from the Penny Black at Allsorts – lemon, lime(altho I think they meant color). The stamp is from Stampin up and the frames cut with Spellbiners, added a Martha Stewart punched leafs, tied ribbon to the corner and added 3 yellow dew drops in the top right corner. I took the picture on my lemon tree in the back yard., want some lemon ade?
