Fibi & Lilly

Like the last two posts this is using TAC's set Fibi & Lilly.  This background is craft paper run through my Big Kick and then I used paint over it to give it texture.

Notice the black mount for the words ... to be different I used a scalloped circle punch and then cut off some of the scallops!

Today I worked on more cards to sell and got a lot done .... you will see them eventually.  Went to the DR in the  morning and ran errands and then stamped the rest of the day ..... after dinner I did my exercises in my hot tub ..... and relaxed too!  Have I told you how much I am enjoying being in water and exercising in it daily.  I was a former swimmer and synchronized swimmer so I have spend a lot of time in a pool and it feel like the natural way for me to be!

Here is another card made with TAC's set 'Fibi & Lilly'.  It was colored with Copic makers and grounded with a Copic Multiliner.  For the background I wrapped card stock with aluminum foil and then ran it through my Big Kick with a Sizziz embossing folder.  I daubed on paint and then wiped it off so it only went into the indented parts.

Mabelle's cute 'Fibi & Lilly' was used for this card.  I colored with Copics and added grounding with a Copic Multliner. Then I mounted it on a background made made with a Sizzix embossing folder on white core paper and then sanded.  I think it came out really cute. I hope you like it too!

Got a few cards make up yesterday and will be featuring them soon.  Need to get the pictures taken today before the rain and darkness comes.  I sure have enjoyed the sunlight and beatuiful weather the last few days.

I will be posting a few pictures from the gathering today on the '2011 Gathering' Tab at the top.  Sorry I did not have time to take as many as I had hoped.  Remember my challenge to all the attendees was to send out 3-5 cards a month to people they are thinking of just to let them know you care.  Are you taking the challenge????
