Creating again...Yay!!

  Happy Saturday!  I'm back to creating again and loving it!   Today I have two new cards to share, both created for challenges.

   My first card was created for this current challenge over at CASology, where this week's them is "Adore".  As soon as I saw the challenge I new exactly which stamp I wanted to use, which is an "Oldie but Goodie" from "Memory Box".

 
 


    A very easy CAS card made very easily with this wonderful "collage style" stamp, which stamped with Black Versafine Ink, onto some white cardstock.  I colored the peonies using Wink of Stella markers, in one shade of pink and two shades of green.  I then added dimension to the flowers by coating them with a layer of 3d Crystal Lacquer.  All I had to do next was trim my image, and foam mount it onto a Black Hero Arts Card base.

   My next card is another very easy card, and this one was created for this week's "Anything Goes" challenge hosted over on the Simon Says Stamp - Wednesday Challenger Blog!  I am also sharing in in the Simon Says Stamp - Work It Wednesday challenge!   




  This card was started by using this wonderful new SSS "Heart" die and my main focal point.  I die cut it in white and then took a piece of lime green textured cardstock and created a window using a Stitched Circle Die.  I layered that onto some matching pattered paper from Stampin' Up, and adhered the heart on top.  I added the fun polka dot flair button, mounted it all onto a Hero Arts Card front and I was done! 

   I have a few more, but they are for upcoming DT projects, so you'll to stay tuned for those.  Please be sure to come back tomorrow, as I have a fun new card that was created for a Guest Designer post over at a2z Scrapbooking!!   Bye bye for now

I had to drop by and check this beautiful card out for the details. It's the lacquer that makes the flowers so shiny. Beautiful background too! Wonderful work, Lisa!

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
