Seas the Day

I was inspired to make an underwater filled with sea critters!  I used a stamp set by a favorite, yet out-of-business, stamp set. These little guys were created by The Alley Way stamp company. I adore these whimsical critters. I colored them with Prismacolor pencils. I was inspired by the following challenges:

Sound the Alarm!

I am back using the Sketch Saturday sketch.  When I first saw this sketch, I was quite stumped, so I'm challenging myself to use it several times.  This card has a more masculine feel with a whole lot of hearts!  I guess I'm not quite ready to put away my Valentine's products.  The firetruck is from Newton's Nook Designs Love Emergency stamp set. I've had this set several weeks, and I'm just now inking it up.  The little sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp.

Espresso Your Love

It's been snowy and cold outside, so I have been forced to stay inside and craft!  Oh, darn!

For this card, I was inspired by several challenges (see below for the list).  I used the newly released Heart Frames die set to create the center hearts. The inner heart was cut on water color paper.  I then water colored a beach and ocean on it.  I stamped the sentiment from NND's Newton's Mug stamp set. I am loving the big mug because it lends itself to many different ways to color or decorate.  I continued with my ocean theme by stamping the little crab with his heart in his claw from the NND's Tides of Love stamp set. I did the mug's background with a sandy beach and water in the background.  

Thanks for stopping by!
