just because

ok, I have a confession, totally got my three in a row messed up...sorry. I should have used watercoloring and I used the flower, but didn't watercolor it. I have used my favorite stamp company, the stamp market...luv these stamps! I used birthday wishes and botanicals stamp & cut bundle, such a gorgeous stamp! I used the amazing sketch created by laurel, luv her saturday sketches! happy monday friends, hope you have a wonderful week!

let it snow

I have used the adorable simon says stamp snowflake for this card and the amazing daniel smith watercolor paints to create the ombre background. I have also used the amazing stamp and die set from the stamp market to make the little gift card holder and the polka dots stamped behind the snowflake are from that set too. It is called a gift for you stamp and cut bundle. I had such fun with this card and gift card/money holder....hope you had a wonderful thanksgiving and shopping weekend! oh by the way, the stamp market is offering 25% off, no code needed...eeeeppp!

This is a gorgeous stamp, it is called watercolor anemones; so pretty! I used a new to me technique that I learned on SCS last week while playing along with fallidays. Rather than spritzing the inked stamp before stamping, you spritz with water after stamping onto paper. It gives a subtle watercolor look...I really like it! I popped the sentiment up on 3d square pop dots and then added a few gemstones. I cannot wait to see what you create this week!

words with meaning - create a life that feels good on the inside, not one that just looks good on the outside.

I have used the sweet chubby chums set for my card, I think the little owl is super cute! I watercolored him using my zig clean color real brush markers. I created a watercolor splash background and added a couple of pieces of designer paper in the the gorgeous golden yellow and purple to stick with the theme colors. I added a a piece of may arts burlap twine and the woohooo sentiment..so cute!
