Yellow Rose with ribbon

Hallo,
Boy did I sleep good last night!!!! I got home from work - totally pooped out, barely ate super, made it as far as the couch and then sometime later stumbled into bed....didn't even check my email much less finish this post that I had waiting all made up except to write a note.....so here it is for you today instead.
I am hoping to get some significant time at the craft table today - I have an old briefcase that I have been planning toredo for ages - been collecting scraps of this and that to match, had the masterboard copies made for a long time from one I did WAAAAYYYY back this last summer....ect., ect. ect.....Its time has finally come!!!
Todays card is a continuation of last weeks obsession with a blackboard technique, only with color - this one in yellows. The rose is from Inkadinkado, stamped in white craft ink and lightly colored with my prismacolor pencils (as to leave a little of the black showing - like an old blackboard).
I cut the layers with my nestabilities in my cuttlebug, added yellow dotted ribbon and some yellow baubles onto lighter yellow base cardstock.
Tomorrows post with be for the FAM - DD 's birthday outing to the local go-cart track - I took tons of pics so will share a few tomorrow. Then hopefully will be able to show you some progress on the suitcase....
All for today - gotta roll

Midnight Owl

Hallo,
Day #2 of Owlmania....
A rather simple card today - craft cardstock and SU 'not quite navy' ink, the Owl was embossed with clear powder.
I used a couple other Inkadinkado stamps (partials) for the corners, and the whole stamp in the bottom left corner. I cut the main panel with my nestabilities on the cuttlebug and layered it onto 2 different ribbons.
Not too much going on today - will be doing some yard work and maybe some shopping with my Chief Enabler Pat....hopefully a little time to stamp later this afternoon.
Take care

Sophisticated Wise Men

Hallo,
Short post as its getting late and the eyelids are a little heavy right now...
I had camera issues again tonight - first the pics are dark because I got done stamping too late and it was dark outside - then when I went to download them --- we for some reason we haven't been able to get the new laptop to accept the camera (its a nikon thats about 5 or 6 years old), the old computer that we had been using quit accepting it a long time ago - I have been loading it to the dark age computer that the kids have for some of their games and then transfering to a little jet drive and then to the laptop - WELLLL - the moniter on the dark age computer decided to die tonight, so I tried once again to load the nikon program to the laptop - it worked for a few minutes and then quit, so I uninstalled and then reinstalled, and finally got the camera to let me download the rest of the pics, who knows if it will work the next time.... I can't really afford a new camera at this time so cross your fingers for me....
ANYWHO - On to the card - All images by Cornish Heritage Farms - http://www.cornishheritagefarms.com/ . I used backrounder 'Sophisticated Swirls' , 'Three Wise Men' and a phrase from 'Christmas Expressions'.

More versions - Trumpeting Angel

Hallo,
Showing you today some versions of yesterdays cards!!! I always have to do a couple variations.
Not too major of changes - the first one is edged with tea dye ink, and the next one with walnut ink.
The third card I embossed the angel in clear ink and then sponged brick red Distress ink on the card to make the angel show up, used the same technique for the last card but used peeled paint Distress ink instead.
For all cards I used stamps from Cornish Heritage Farms http://www.cornishheritagefarms.com - 'Aged sheet music' scrapblock and 'Trumpeting Angel' and I used a gold krylon to edge the Angel layer and a Christmas ribbon from my stash.
All for today....see ya thursday......
