A Boy and his Dog

Here's another clean and simple card featuring an image from Mo Manning.   It's colored with copics and I used a brad from my stash.

On a personal note, if you have chronic fatigue syndrome, I'd like to talk to you.  Email me at jberezowecki@hotmail.com

Clean and Simple

I've been trying out some one layer cards, which is a change for me. Here's one I've created using the zinnia Flourishes stamp.

I chose to use my RV copic markers--RV02,024 and 06. I also colored up some white ribbon using RVO2 so that it would match.  I really like these CAS cards.  They are quick, fun to color, and really show off the image so nicely.

On another note, I think winter has finally arrived today. It's quite cold (20C) and we're getting some snow.  Hope you are having a wonderful and restful sunday.

Hot Pink Bling

I think that there's nothing better than a black and white card with a pop of color.  Hot pink is one of those colors that makes everything pop, and I couldn't resist using it today.  I've chosen a stamp from the Zinnia's set.  RV and YG copic markers were used to color this image.  I also must mention that the paper is old--at least 4 years old---and the bling is new. 

I hope your monday is going great.....it's the start of a beautiful week! Thanks for stopping by.

Crafting When We Can Sunday

Today it's a new challenge over at Crafting When We Can.  We are looking for cards that relate to your New Year's Resolutions.   Here's what I came up with:

We have two sponsors this week, and the first sponsor provided this fun image. Isn't it a great one?!!!  I'm thinking this card would be good to give to a friend who needs a boost in a couple of weeks, when exercising is really not that much fun anymore.

Our first sponsor is The Stamping Boutique.   You might also want to check out their challenge blog too.   Here's what Tracey says about her store, The Stamping Boutique:  "The Stamping Boutique is dedicated to quality products and original artwork.  We not only provide wonderful digital images in our store, but also several lines of red rubber images.  Our designers are chosen for their character and personality, as well as, their beautiful designs.  We work hard to give you our very best."  Why not pop over and check our their selection of images.  You'll have a hard time just choosing one, as I did.

Our second sponsor is Crafty Ribbons.  They are offering a selection of valentine ribbon to one of our winners.

If you'd like to play along, and to see more of the DT's creations, pop over to the Crafting When We Can blog.  You can also find all the rules for the challenge there.

Happy Sunday everyone!

Geronimo!

I made this card for a challenge over at The Cat's Pajamas, but missed the deadline. Sigh. Oh well, I'm posting it anyway, cuz I love the sketch and the image.

I used Basic Grey paper--a pack that's new to me. I really like the bright colors. 

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope the weather is as good in your area of the world, as it is in mine today. It's a gorgeous day!

I followed the MFT sketch this week....it's a good one.  I used the fringed perennial MFT die, along with the banner die.  This is a short post as I'm off to an appointment in the city.

Hope you all had a wonderful New Year!  Janet
