A special gift for a very special someone.....

I made this for my Mother in Law who is battling breast cancer.. Thank you too my friend Shelly for directing me to this stamp... I water colored the background as well as the rainbow.. The rainbow has a special meaning for my Mother in Law and I thought it very appropriate for this.. The picture frame is actually an off white but in the picture it might look a little pinkish... I have to say this looks so much better in person...

Update

I thought that it was about time to give everyone an update!
This is my first attempt at watercoloring.. Not too bad right?

I just love this stamp!!


This is a card that I made to send pictures in.


I took two 5 x 7 pieces of card stock and stitched them together. I then added the front to the two pieces. The sentiment is under the circles.

I used Stampin Up Crystal Effects on the front of the circle after I stamped and colored my image. I wanted to give it a shimmery watery look..

Here is the inside where the pictures go.

A question someone asked...

Someone asked a question on how I get the frames for my cards. I own a cricut machine that cuts all kinds of different shapes based on the cartridge used. I mostly use that for getting the scalloped circles and squares and other frames for my cards. Hope this is helpful!

Mother's Day.. Baby Card and More....

Here is my weekly update of cards I have done.. I just love the lion and the look on his face! For this card I stamped on the inside "Having a Bad Day?" I thought that it was more than appropriate! This card is actually up for sale on ebay and has a bid! YAY! I have been trying to sell some of my creation on there. So far so good. If you want to check out what I have for sale just look for the link to the right - Ebay- My listings!
Sorry about the poor quality of the next couple of pictures. I had to use my scanner instead of my camera as I let someone borrow my camera.
This is a card I did for a friend who just had a baby.
The next two are Mother's Day cards and the last card is just one I did with no particular theme. I had just gotten the stamp set and had to try them out! Speaking of stamp sets. I just got some in the mail from Stampin Up and also allthatscraps.com! I can't wait to use them! Hopefully I will have a little time this week or weekend end!
