We had company over the weekend. My daughter Trina came for the weekend. Kim who also lives out of town came for a day. It was a good visit.
Today I have a card I made for my Mother's 89th Birthday. The stamp I used is a High Hopes image.....I know she'll get a kick out of these happy clucky gals.
You can visit High Hopes Stamps here .
I also used the SC150 sketch challenge for this card.
Stamps - High Hopes and studio G for sentiment
Paper - always artichoke, whisper white, michaels, wild asparagus, sizzix stack
Ink - classic black, colorbos black pigment for sentiment, close to cocoa, creamy caramel
Accents - flowers, brad, eyelets, charm, cuttlebug background, stitching, cord, stardust pen and stickles.
I used prismacolor pencils (oms) and Twinkling h20's to deepen the shading.
If you have any questions feel free to ask. Have a Great Day!!
Thanks for looking and your Wonderful comments!!!

HI Ila! This card is so darn cute, I can't hardly stand it. So I went to High Hopes and bought a mess of stamps and don't you know, I didn't get this one. Thanks for sharing these wonderful stamps with me. I will have to go back for the three chicks at a later date. When you use the twinklers, do you just go over the prismacolors? Or do you go into empty space? It looks so wonderful I would like to give it a try. Do you have a tutorial that you have done? I am asking a lot of questions. Love your work! Have a great and blessed day.
Wowzers, look at how many people love your card. I'm jumping on the band wagon. You seriously do this style of cards so perfectly. Clearly, you have the perfect touch girlfriend.
