Sympathy Card

I made this card for a friend of Phil's whose father had died recently. I find it very hard to make a sympathy card for a man, all seem to be very girly because they normally are flowers that you put on them. I tried to make this one more for a man sticking to the blues and using a textured back ground paper. I used my copics and pencil crayons with OMS. I found that the end result was what I was hoping for, more masculine. I hope that you like what I have done and thanks for stopping by. I hope to be adding more posts in the near future. Have a great day. Diane

Worker Ant

Hi All,

Well after a very long few months I am back. Between getting married moving and starting on a new contract I have been one very busy worker Ant. I have finally gotten better after being down for a few weeks with that nasty flu bug. Not 100% as of yet but I am getting there. But I am sure you didn't stop by to hear my tails of my busy life you stopped by to see my cards. This Worker Ant card is one of High Hopes stamp and I thought it was a cute one to do as my first card back in a while. I coloured the worker ant with copics. I made the card to be like a match book. I had a lot of fun colouring him while I was down and out with the flu. All supplies came from the Rubber Room craft and online store. Thanks for stopping by Diane.

Wedding invites

Hi all,
First off let me say I have had a very busy the past few weeks and have not been able to get on to post, or make anything. We, Phil and I, have now bought a house and have set a wedding date. Yup we move the 15 of Aug. (we get the keys on the 13th) and we get married the following weekend. Whew busy busy busy. My parents are having our wedding in their backyard. They are doing so much to try and make this a day to remember. Mom and I have now found my dress and shoes, Dad has gotten the caterer and they both have decided on a place to get cupcakes, nice touch instead of a big cake. I don't want a big wedding so it is a very small wedding with less then 40 all together. Anyways Thanks to The Rubber Room and my good friend Shirley I am posting my wedding invites. Shirley had a sample of this card done up that she had made for a family members wedding invite and I like it so much she lent me the stamp set. The Rubber Room did the wording on it and I did the rest. Hope you like it. once I have the thank you gifts done I will post them as well. Have a great week and I hope to have something new to post soon.

Quick Note...

Hi Everyone,

Let me first start off by saying I am sorry I haven't gotten anything posted in a long while. The reason for this is that Phil and I have been looking high and low for a house. We have gone through now 3 offers, 2 that were not accepted and 1 that fell through when we did the home inspection. As of tonight we have found the house!!! I am a firm believer in everything happens for a reason, after the last fell through because of home inspection we found the one that we want to call home. Both Phil and I love it, it is a beautiful house that we could have many many happy years in. As a side note I did not see this house until tonight, Phil and my father were the first to check it out this morning and called me at work saying that I had to see it tonight no time to waste. Even before I saw it I keep referring to it when we talked, it was the one that stuck out in my mind, call it a big gut feeling, anyways we went through it tonight with both my parents and we all agreed it was a beautiful house. I hope I am not jinxing it by saying all this but please keep you fingers crossed!! Tomorrow will be a very long day. Will keep everyone posted. Have a great night and I promise as soon as I can I will post more cards.
TTFN

Cutie

Okay have to post this one quick, we are getting a thunderstorm here like you would not believe and I do not want the power to knock out while I am in the middle of this post.

This card is made with a stamp from The Greeting Farm. I decided I wanted to play around with Copic Markers and Prismacolour pencil crayons. This is the end result. I first coloured it with Copics, one base colour, then I went over it with my Primsacolour pencil crayons and OMS. I like the effect it gave her because is gave a softer look to the Copics while still keeping the brightness of them. I purchased all supplies used in this card at The Rubber Room and on line store.

Well I am off, thanks for stopping by my blog and have a wonderful rest of the week.

Loves Me...

Good Evening and Happy Monday,

Okay sorry for being so slow with the posts this week but sometimes life just happens. It seems some weeks I just have to many irons on the fire, this week was one of them.

Now on with the card...

I did this card and it is going to be a sample at The Rubber Room, if they like it that is LOL. I fell in love with this little cutie that is a stamp from motivet. The Rubber Room has a large selection of this furry little friends and I begged to do this one. Isn't she just the cutest. I coloured her with Prismacolour pencils and OMS. I used at least 3 different shades of blue, yellow and green on her and about 4 different browns, I think she turned out okay. All supplies came from The Rubber Room and online store.

Have a wonderful evening!

Pink Fairy Girl

Good Morning All and Happy Saturday,
This morning I am posting this card I made for The Rubber Room. This stamp is from The Greeting Farm I colour her in Copic Markers and the paper is from Pink Filigree Corner, I cut out some of the small flowers and glued them on with the edges curled up. I think this would make a very cute birthday card for a little girl.

Have a great Saturday and weekend.
