This card, created for the Inspiration Station Challenge Photo, features
an adorable digi named “Breakfast for Mom” from Cute As a Button. This sweet
daughter, who appears to be a messy baker like me, whipped up a batch of pancakes
topped with mounds of strawberries. The sentiment, from PowerPoppy, is a
perfect fit for the sweet digi!

Pinky Challenge #2624
My second
entry for this month's challenge from Sweet November Stamps (SNS) features an adorable digi of a mermaid and her otter friend! The
beautiful, deep blue underwater photo, named “Algae Ocean Bloom,” is from a free
Bing wallpaper program I installed on my laptop some time ago. (I love learning
about all the unusual and often beautiful places in the world, with new photos
and info every day!)
I’m entering this card into several challenges, including Colorful Options Monthly Challenge: Option 2 (my card features several shades of blue, and an ocean.)

This card features a gold
embossed image from one of my all-time favorite wood mount rubber stamps, an heirloom
from Personal Stamp Exchange (aka PSX Stamps) named “Floral Wreath” that I’ve
had in my collection since the 1990’s. I store my wood-mount stamps in the garage, and pulled this one out a few months ago to use at a stamping class I
was offering through a community group for retirees! They absolutely loved the
cards they made using this stamp, especially when they embossed the image with gold
embossing powder. This is one of the sample cards that I’d made. The butterfly
digis are freebies from Papercraft Secrets (seedetails in my supplies list). All
other items were all from my stash.
I’m entering this card into several challenges, including two that require “Things with Wings” (since I can see butterflies fluttering around the flower bed I can see outside of our front window, they seemed like a lovely option!).
Supplies:
· Wood-mount rubber stamp ”Floral Wreath” from
PSX (Company no longer in business)
· Colored with Spectrum Noir Classique markers, and a Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen
· Butterfly digis
from Papercraft Secrets

The sweet gnome on this coffee-themed card is from a favorite FB site, Free Printables for your Junk Journaling with TLC. (See details in
my supplies section.) Because coloring is my favorite stress-management technique,
I seldom use precolored images; this little guy was too cute to pass
up! The rest of the card went together quickly with items from my stash.
· Pre-colored gnome digi is from Free Printables for your Junk
