Keeping It Simple

I decided to do some simple cards and here they are. Just stamped and added a few embellishments!

July 15-16 Cards

First one was Hero Arts July kit stamp. Used a stencil and oxide ink for the background. Colored the flowers with my Zig Photo Twin pens. The pens are for coloring on photos, but I've only used them to color stamped images.

Visible Images stamps (a new favorite), Background was made using my Art-C Groove blending tool (it's an awesome tool) with SU inks and number stencil. Clock hands were cut on the KNK Force

My favorite card this weekend. Stencil and oxide ink, stamped images and sentiment. Then decided to color girl using oxide and other inks with my brushstix (need to use those more)

Another Visible Images stamp (man) with Gink K (sun/palms) and Tim Holtz (sentiment) stamp

Memorial Weekend cardmaking

But first a big THANK YOU to all that have sacrificed to make the USA a great place to live!

 Oops I forgot to add the butterfly before I took the picture of the flowers!

 I really enjoy playing with Dylusions Stamp

Pink-grey Card set and more

 Used Stampin' Up Twirly Bird die cuts and a variety of stamps for this card set. The grey card stock is the new Michael's heavy card stock; I really like it. To die cut I had to put it through my Big Shot 3 times.

These cards were ink mixed with water (on a craft sheet) and then painted on shimmer paper that I bought from cutcardstock.com.

Ranger Oxide Inks

I'm loving these inks! Here's my weekend cards
