Dancing in the Rain

Happy Monday,

I colored this card awhile ago, but it never made it off my craft table.  April tends to be a rainy month, so I thought it fitting it makes it debut now.

I added some blue liquid pearls.  I didn't like these at all. I wouldn't do it again.  They flattened out and look more like blobs.  I would just color them with B00, B01 instead.

Good Kitty

Happy Saturday,

I have another quick card to share.  This idea was passed on to me from my friend, Debbi.  She had made a similar card and I thought it was adorable.  This is my version of it.  I didn't have all the punches/dies that she used...so I had to substitute for things I had on hand.  Thank you for sharing such a great idea.

This card is made from dies/punches.   I used a star die to create the ears, heart for the nose, ovals for the feet and circle dies for the tail.


No copics today.
I used a gel pen to draw in the toes.

Stupid or What?!

Happy Thursday,

Connor is finally home from his Colorado skiing weekend.  It is nice to have him back in the house.  I think the dogs missed him too.  When I brought him home from the airport, we decided to play a little prank on the dogs.  I went into the house first and let them out of their kennel.  They gave me the normal, excited greeting, walking circles around me tails wagging and toys in their mouths.   Our black lab noticed I left the door open and ran over...as she got close she noticed a man standing in the doorway.  She skidded to a stop and let out a huge, mean sounding bark.  In the next second she realized it was Connor and her attitude changed instantly.  She was so excited to see him.  

Keeping with the humor.... I have a silly card for you.
