Shamrock Love
Hello and Happy Tuesday! On the Eve of St. Patrick's Day, I thought it appropriate to share a themed card; perhaps a mexied media project...I'm really not sure what mixed media is but I used an ink smooshing technique, a die cut, twine, enamel dots, a sentiment stamp and paint splatters. Does that count?

Be Awesome Today!
Good Sunday to you and I hope you are well. In the States, we changed our time and "Sprung Ahead" for Daylight Savings Time. I'm feeling that hour of lost sleep so today's post is a quick one.

Happy Spring Robin
Hello and Happy Thursday! Spring is around the corner (Daylight Savings time this weekend) and I'm ready for that extra of hour of Daylight in the evenings. My share today features a Cheerful Robin Red Breast; a sign of Spring, and he is singing his Welcome Spring Song.
The card measures 5" square, features masking, ink blending, alcohol marker coloring and the Beautiful Birds Stamp set with coordinating dies from Gina K. Designs. This style of card is different for me as I tend to make A2 sized cards with lots of layers and patterned paper. It's fun to step outside your box once in a while - I like how this card turned out...I see more of this style in my future.
Don't forget to "Spring Ahead" 1 hour this weekend....Spring is Coming! Until Next Time, Happy Crafting!

Lady Gnome Leprechauns Rule!
Hello and Happy Saturday Evening! Wow...I had a great crafting day..all alone for several blissful hours so I took advantage and created several cards I will be featuring this week.
One of the cards today is this Sweet Lady Gnome Leprechaun bearing a Top Hat full of 4 Leaf Clovers. I love to craft for seasons and Holidays, even though many may not recognize or celebrate, it's a reason for me to get creative. A majority of my cards go to Sending Smiles to Seniors and Card Swaps so I'm always in need of seasonal cards.
