I Love You Puffy

Happy FWF FRIDAY!!

I can't believe that it's already Friday again.  Colorado has taken much of a winter hit for Spring this year and our May 1st was greeted with so much snow.  By the time the snow stopped, we had over 20 inches on the ground.  My dogs LOVE the snow.

 

 When the snow started, it was WET and very very heavy.  Many tree branches in town were lost.  Luckily the neighbors trees didn't break...but they sure came close.

 Anyway...Now on to my project.

I finally got the chance to play with the cute little panda in the April KOM.  He is so adorable.  My son, who is in the Navy and currently on his way towards North Korea :( absolutely loves Penguins and Pandas.  So this card is going in the mail tomorrow for him.  He will be out in the ocean for 10 months.  So I'm sure this will make him smile.

SUPPLIES:
Stamps:  Unity April 2013 KOM

Other supplies:  Asian paper (I don't remember the maker), Fruit Punch and Christmas Red Stickles, Purple Glaze Gel Pen, Asian luck token, Offray ribbon

Techniques:  I made the panda's face, flower, and the glitter heart puffy by using a large ball stylus that I "learned" from Debby (Design Team Member from Simon Says Stamp)  I love love love her creations....
So hence the title "I Puffy "Heart" You"  :)

Beach Thoughts

Friends with Flair Friday!!!

Although I LOVE living in Colorado, I really do miss the beaches in California.  When I saw this stamp by Phyllis Harris...I HAD to have it.  When I look at this image, I can still remember the feel of the sand in my toes, the cool wind blowing, and the sound of the waves crashing onto the shore.

So what I have done here I have taken two images and combined them perfectly together using the masking technique.  The lighthouse comes from the Stamp of the Week Club and the other image is, of course, Phyllis Harris.  And how ironic that the phrase blends PERFECTLY to the lighthouse beam.

Enjoy!
