I'm back!





Finally back to posting on this blog. I've been lazy and spending more time on my other mixed media blog http://www.romancingtheartistwithin.blogspot.com
Here are some cards I've been making. I usually forget to take pictures of my cards before sending them. I hope to be more diligent in the coming year.
So I hope you will be back visiting me again.

My February Cards so far




I love using the same papers and using them in different ways. I think there is a blurry one. Sorry.

Another variation


Here is the same card but a different look by adding a dotted ribbon. I always do about 6 cards all the same or a variation using the same stamp and colours of cardstock and then embellish them differently. The trend right now seems to be alot of flowers,gems, and glitter with lots of layering. I'm just not there yet. I like to keep things simple, but I'm trying to change. lol

Black and blue


Textured Cardstock by Stampin'Up, printed paper by Quick Quotes paper, handmade flower using printed paper by Kaiser Scrapbook, film strip by Tim Holtz Idea-ology; stamp by Hero arts.

This is the last of today's cards



Well this is the last of them for this month. I made 41 cards this month, so now it's on to something else. I have some swaps to do for the yahoogroup Art For The Creative Mind. I've had a great month doing cards, tags, atcs, gothic arches, and a mini book. For anything other than cards you can see them at http://www.romancingtheartistwithin.blogspot.com
Comments are always welcome.



These all supplies for these cards is from Stampin'Up. The stamp set is called Travel Sketchbook. It's an older stampset.

Cards, Cards, Cards




I love using up the papers and cardstock sitting on my table. I have a basket of bits and pieces and once in awhile I like to work just with what I have sitting there. Here are the results of today's bits. Most of the papers and cs, inks used are by Stampin'Up. The little girl with the cupcake is by Penny Black.
