Speedy Fox and Friends Challenge 227

This week the theme is to use a Silhouette stamp. I masked off a section and sponged with blues. Then stamped the Wisemen in the section and added the Star & sentiment in the white sections.

Speedy Fox and Friends Challenge 226

This week the theme is CAS... Quick and easy to do. I cut a window with an oval die to see the sentiment on the inside. A pretty pink tissue paper layer and the Rose attached to the front.

This week we are making Twisted easel cards. Go on over and give it a try. This is a great stamp. One of my favorite flowers. I've colored it with pencils. It's not easy to see it in the photo but there are also popped up blossoms that I cut out and attached.
