Hello hello and happy Thursday!

It's week 2 of the Art Impressions ''Add a Brad' challenge!  So, here is my card using one of the new Utility Dies for HIM.  If you haven't see them... you have to check them out!

They are so so cool!  Super fun and easy...  The better part, just add a brad, they can move just like a real utility knife. Totally awesome!

You know me... I like fun background... For the diamond plate background, all I did was adhering a piece of aluminum foil on card stock, then ran it though an embossing folder.  Viola!

Since I have so much fun making the card... I did another one.  :)

Super cool, huh?!  Hope you can join us for the challenge!

See you there!

Get Well Soon with lots of Chill and Happy Pills.

Hello hello nd happy Monday!

I'm sharing a get well card using of a the new Ai Michaels/Hampton Arts clear set called 

Get Well SC0681.  I adore this set and just too cute.  it will just do the job to bring a smile on those yucky days.  

For a little fun, I decided to create a row of pill bottles using those two single happy pills and chill pills stamp.  I stamped a few of them on a post-it to create a mask, then stamped them in a roll. 

Then, I colored the images with watercolor markers.  I added on a sentiment and a few more pill bottles just for fun.  

Hope you like it and have a great day!  And sending you lots of 'HAPPY' pills!  :)

Watercolor and white pen challenge!

Hello hello and happy Thursday!

It's time once again for the Art Impressions challenge!  So, for these couple of weeks, the theme is Watercolor & White pen.  Plus, there was a new release of the beautiful window deco die too. I absolutely adore the new window die.  You can check it out HERE!  And of course, the new Watercolor Mini sets too.  

Here is my card for the challenge used one of the new watercolor mini called Watering cans.

And for use of the 'white pen', I used it on the flowers for some highlights. 

Hope you like it and can't wait to see what you create!

Sunset ride with the girlfriends...

Hello hello and happy Monday!

It's always nice to take a walk at sunset with our love ones. But these Girlfriends totally kicked it up a notch... Got to love the Pedal Pushers set (SKU#4238).  One bicycle, four besties... 

how cool is that?!

For the Girlfriends, I colored them with some watercolor oil pastels. 

And on the sunset background, I used some Gelatos.  I roughly apply the gelatos on the watercolor paper (here is the order of the color, from top to bottom:  raspberry, red cherry, mango, lemon, and licorice) and then blend the colors separately with a baby wipe.   (P.S.  I did do a little bit of bending in between colors).

Make a WISH and want some CAKE?!

Hello hello and happy Monday!

Want a GIANT cake?  It's sure a yes for me!  I love cake and all things sweet.  And especially when they are delivery by these super cool Girlfriends, totally fun!  Here is a yummy birthday cake using one of the Ai Girlfriends, this is the Giant Cake set (SKU#U4386).

For the background, I decided to try out the Color Burst powder.  I misted the watercolor paper with some water first, then sparkle on the Color Burst powder.  

Then, I used a paint brush to smooth out the powder to create the background desired.  Then, I distressed the edge of the watercolor paper with history smoke distress ink.  And, I used a  paint brush to splatter with some glimmer mixture (which is a mixture of water and Perfect Pearls) to create some effects.  For the Girlfriends, I colored them some watercolor pencils.

To finish it, I adhere the Girlfriends with some foam tape.  I also added some glossy accents and sparkles by using a glitter pen.  And of course, an embossed sentiment and just a few sequins.

Hope you like it and have a HAPPY day!
