This fun image and was perfect for a 

SUNNY birthday wish for a friend. 

I used a sun die cut on bright yellow

cardstock. I had a pretty ocean/sky 

designer paper that the sunny cutout

was attached to. The image was cut out

using my Scan n Cut then colored with

my Copic markers. It was attached to 

the card with mounting tape and the 

birthday sentiment was stamped right

on the sun to complete the card.

Making cards is such a lovely, relaxing 

time and especially when I can share the

cards with friends on their birthdays!

I found some cute pattern paper to accent

the cards and colored the images to

coordinate with the paper. Copics were my

go to markers today. I extended the 

balloon strings and put some white gel pen

dashes on the balloons. The first card I

stamped the sentiment right on the base

card front and the second card I made

a raised up, layered sentiment.

This was made for a friend's birthday.

I know I love getting happy mail and 

this set was just right. It's Puppy Mail

and a great set from Gerda Steiner Designs.

I cut out the mailbox and puppy after 

I colored them with Copic markers. 

I made a wavy green hill to attach to 

the blue background. I used die cuts for

the sun and clouds and stamped my

sentiment to complete the card. Here's

the inside. I am sure my friend will smile.

Formerly, Penguin Palace, now

It's always fun getting to find new stuff

and a great sponsor as well! YAY!

Go shop at Sunbird Spark for some 

awesome new stuff! I know I did! lol!

They've added plenty as well! 

Here's my card for the challenge...

using "The Sweetest Truck"

Well, I needed a special card again. This 

one for my almost 6 year old grandson, LJ.

On Friday, June 13th, he is getting his

adenoids and tonsils out and getting

tubes in his ears. Sooo, his momma asked

a bunch of us to mail him Get Well cards

for when he gets home. He should have 

a nice pile to open. Send up prayers for 

him AND his mom, who needs peace. 

Ok, enough of my rambling.

For my card, I started with the perfect

background cardstock. Then I got out

 The Sweetest Truck set from Sunbird Spark.

I tried to coordinate the coloring of the

stamped images to blend in with the

scenic background paper. I did the best

I could using my Copic markers. The 

colored images were cut out and attached

to the card front. The truck was flat while

I raised up the "LJ" little boy

and the sentiment was stamped on

a die cut tag. The "feel better" came from

a random set, the "ice cream" is from 

Sunbird's stamp set and I hand printed

the word "eat."

The music notes from the set were stamped

directly on the card front. 

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see

your entries in the Current Challenge.

PIP Challenge 2522

 Another great challenge over at PIP Challenges

with our lovely sponsor

Varada Sharma

VS has such beautiful images and stamps! 

It's awesome that she is kind enough to sponsor 

PIP Challenges! Please be sure to visit her site

or find her actual stamps at RubberStamps.com!!

 Here's my card for this week

using "Easy Layering Florals 1" (sentiment)

and "Take a Moment"

I needed 3 anniversary cards this month

and Varada's stamps and sentiments 

managed to fill my need happily! My Copics

were used to color my images. The Brothers

Scan n Cut cut the flowers out perfectly!

First I stamped the leaves directly onto my 

card front, as well as the sentiment.

I added some white gel pen dots to a few

of the flowers and raise it up with mounting

tape. A coordinating colored cardstock 

added just the right "pop" for the flowers.

Be sure to visit Varada's Etsy shop 

and Rubber Stamps.
