I used the Simon Says patterned papers from the June card kit. I also used a HA luggage tag stamp and die set along with a Rubbermoon girl holding a globe, which I stamped from the Kelly Purkey stamp set that also came in the June card kit. Sentiment is from the same set. Thanks for looking!<br />

It seems she went into cardiac arrest a number of times and it caused terrible complications. Anyway, I thought this card might be the right thing, not too sad and sort of uplifting. I saw a version of this in a magazine and I didn't have any of the right stamps so I followed the technique. Thanks for looking.

I am trying to explore more stamping techniques rather than relying on using patterened papers, which I really do love. All of this stamping is helping me understand the different kinds of inks - dye, pigment, shadow, distress, mid-tone, etc. and how they work together...or don't! And, also learning which colors will work together, too.<br />

It's a snowy Friday here and if work isn't too crazy, I may try and "play" today!<div style='clear:both; text-align:LEFT'><a href='http://picasa.google.com/blogger/' target='ext'><img src='http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif' alt='Posted by Picasa' style='border: 0px none ; padding: 0px; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial;' align='middle' border='0' /></a></div>Avahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08369772543892810003noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1673133968880797736.post-4403136452982228642013-03-07T13:37:00.001-08:002013-03-07T13:37:34.558-08:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK-k4cwt59sF0Q3sl-BSbfHKNqWsfEjT5n_yfu3xnfc0OongHzNHTZAPbPD2fcPZjVaK1zAr49Kjwip-zVVvWe-yRRcwepsNfEvNSt_qPo017-QV-PVSrG7JGK-rVktd3RVI-TBkiksFQ/s1600/P1010917.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK-k4cwt59sF0Q3sl-BSbfHKNqWsfEjT5n_yfu3xnfc0OongHzNHTZAPbPD2fcPZjVaK1zAr49Kjwip-zVVvWe-yRRcwepsNfEvNSt_qPo017-QV-PVSrG7JGK-rVktd3RVI-TBkiksFQ/s320/P1010917.JPG" style="clear: both; float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;" /></a> This is for the March CCC.

Papertrey Dye inks, HA flower stamp and sentiment and some Doodlebug pearls.<div style='clear:both; text-align:LEFT'><a href='http://picasa.google.com/blogger/' target='ext'><img src='http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif' alt='Posted by Picasa' style='border: 0px none ; padding: 0px; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial;' align='middle' border='0' /></a></div>Avahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08369772543892810003noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1673133968880797736.post-69096789109759686592013-03-07T10:45:00.001-08:002013-03-07T10:45:47.497-08:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYqdNd8k5bVu16I9icP4GUHg5kc4OAqfp7Aupga3RV7_h-XIA54-14S_tpkmvaP-OaQ27F8eSizG6wzNJbNMB9k8rUC2p1i9O1JOhR-JT0wLGVkINMPXOhlQ6Q_iO2k1ZYsypYENsf28s/s1600/P1010914.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYqdNd8k5bVu16I9icP4GUHg5kc4OAqfp7Aupga3RV7_h-XIA54-14S_tpkmvaP-OaQ27F8eSizG6wzNJbNMB9k8rUC2p1i9O1JOhR-JT0wLGVkINMPXOhlQ6Q_iO2k1ZYsypYENsf28s/s320/P1010914.JPG" style="clear: both; float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;" /></a> I just cannot put down these new Lawn Fawn stamps! Some Inktensils and glossy accents used with a small piece of green vellum, which Linda W gave me last year at Scrapfest! I went with primary colors for the hearts as they are just so bright and colorful.<br />

It's snowing here but we don't expect much of an accumulation, thank goodness. Work is quiet this afternoon so I got in some play time. I hope you're having a great day!<div style='clear:both; text-align:LEFT'><a href='http://picasa.google.com/blogger/' target='ext'><img src='http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif' alt='Posted by Picasa' style='border: 0px none ; padding: 0px; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial;' align='middle' border='0' /></a></div>Avahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08369772543892810003noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1673133968880797736.post-40760613179933656422013-03-06T14:20:00.001-08:002013-03-06T14:20:45.017-08:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghnkJ74tRdBL8MrirQne7glWfPyZS5d9Q8M8-vTwyGlQI1hzYWs34tXvQ_co-OJdpM3HnBMpglwSuE6hshXpDaXBjlXJclsnlJgUK9ZITXXLokxPkX4jCRt9Gw-h8oBm_N9WfGBRPlgKA/s1600/P1010912.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghnkJ74tRdBL8MrirQne7glWfPyZS5d9Q8M8-vTwyGlQI1hzYWs34tXvQ_co-OJdpM3HnBMpglwSuE6hshXpDaXBjlXJclsnlJgUK9ZITXXLokxPkX4jCRt9Gw-h8oBm_N9WfGBRPlgKA/s320/P1010912.JPG" style="clear: both; float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;" /></a> I have 2 new Lawn Fawn sets and they are really sweet. The background was stamped repeatedly with the heart stamp using chalk ink and the cute popsicle was colored with Copics.
