Penny Black Season's Greetings




I love the clean look of this Christmas card.
I stamped the following on Ranger watercolor paper:

Red flower from Altenew Watercolor Wonders stamped in MFT Wild Cherry ink
Used waterbrush to blend ink once stamped
Black centers from PTI Peonies on Parade
Greeting from Penny Black Season's Greetings

I CASED this card.  I like hers much better but I could not find the minimalist poinsettia stamp that she used.

My Favorite Things (MFT) Buildable Bouquet


I just love this sweet stamp set from MFT My Favorite Things!  The flowers set is called Buildable Bouquet. Stamped on Ranger Watercolor Paper and colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers and a waterbrush.  The sentiment is from MFT called Label Maker Sentiments.  Stamped with my MISTI as this is the best way to stamp onto textured cardstock.  The stripe patterned paper is from MFT as well.

My card is a CASE of this card.

Thanks for looking!

Altenew Watercolor Wonder


I just LOVE this stunning stamp set from Altenew - Watercolor Wonder. 

This card took forever to make. I originally made it for my step moms birthday all on watercolor paper.  I had to cut off the sentiment because I didn't like it and remount it for another occasion. Watercolored with Tim Holtz Distress Inks in Picked Raspberry, Mowed Lawn, Carved Pumpkin and Squeezed Lemonade. I inked up the stamps, spritzed with watercolor and stamped onto Tim Holtz Watercolor Paper.  There are three layers of color on each flower with complete drying time in between. 

This is a case of this card.

Art Cards for Realtors



Love, love loving' my new Art Cards for Realtors!
Take a peek at the full site so far: 


My Square site (above) is where Realtors will go to order.  I will refund shipping and deliver to their offices (Davenport & Bettendorf only) one day a week...probably Saturdays.
Realtors do NOT need to be there to accept delivery.  I will just have the receptionist place in their boxes.
