PIP Challenge 2622

 I want to thank our wonderful sponsor
Be sure to pop over and check out all the 
fabulous digis she has!  
In fact, go check them out now!

Here is my card for the current challenge
I am making this card for a friend I haven't
seen since I was a sophomore living in Calif.
She and I raised guinea pigs for quite awhile. 
Jan now lives in Texas and I'm in Wisc. We 
first reconnected through FB several years 
ago and I was thrilled. I hope to get together
with her one day! 
ANYWAAAAAAY...
I used Copics to color this image. Die cuts
were used to create the layers. I had a
banner die cut that I used for the sentiment.
Mounting tape raised up the sentiment
banner. White gel pen added the balloon 
dimension and two heart embellishments 
to complete this card. 
If you haven't checked out RAM Stamps
you are really missing out. She has 
a fabulous variety of images. Go and
start shopping now and join in the 
current challenge and maybe be a 
Random.com winner, or get an 
Honorary Mention!! Good times!

PIP Challenge 2621

Today is my birthday, May 25th, and
I always have fun using my fun stuff from
who is this week's sponsor
Be sure to pop over and see all the 
fabulous the wonderful new stencils,
stamps, die cuts, and papers they have! 
Go check them out now!
Here is my card
As usual, I had a lot of fun  creating with
one of my oldies but goodies!! I believe it
has been retired but not in my house! This
fun set gets lots of use. I needed a Father's
Day card for my awesome hubby. He is an
amazing guy and the best dad and grandpa.
Besides all that, he's my bestie!! Soooo,
I stamped my images and used Copics
to color them. I wanted a simple card but
I also wanted it to be special! I fussy 
cut the images out. A black banner was
made for the white heat embossed 
sentiment. I attached the megaphone
to the banner and raised it and the pup 
up with good ol' mounting tape.
The sentiment is from a random company.
I added a nice red cardstock to make it
all pop. I think it worked just fine.
Newton's Nook is a great place to find
just the right stamps and lots of 
other goodies to add to your crafting. 

I love all my goodies from Newton's Nook
