Happy Monday! I hope you had a nice weekend!
Last week I shared several cards that I made using my colored pencils and blender pen. Here’s one more but I used the stamp set, For the Birds. I sent this card off to one of my former students, who is now a third grader, to just say hi. I hope he likes it!
As you can see, I didn’t use the sentiment that came with it. I used my Kraft Scissors and cut that part off of my stamp.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Tomorrow is the last day to receive free items for every $50 that you purchase in Stampin’ Up! products!!!! My card today uses the set Patterned Occasions, one of the free sets that you can choose from!!
Are you wondering how I was able to make my leaves a different color than the rest of the stamped image? It was very easy. First, I stamped the entire image in Rich Razzleberry. Then I used my blender pen and removed the Rich Razzleberry from the leaves. Once it was completely off, I used my marker and colored my leaves with Old Olive! So simple!!

The tool I’m spotlighting today is Grid Paper (#102787) $9.95)! I always use a sheet of it to protect my work surface when I’m making my cards. Each piece is 11″ x 17″ which is a nice big size. You receive 100 sheets so it will definitely last a long time!! What you can’t see in the photo above is that there’s a great ruler at the bottom. I also use the lines to help me line up titles.. The bottom picture shows you common dimensions of cards and has an area where you can write down supplies that you are running low on. I don’t know about you, but if I don’t write it down immediately, it’s GONE (until the next time when I need it)! I also use my paper to try out a stamp before I actually ink it up on my card. I’d be lost without my grid paper!
Thank you for stopping by! You can
visit my online store and purchase your own Grid Paper! Add a few more supplies and you’ll be able to choose a free product during Sale-a-bration which ends on Thursday!!!

Today my card uses the Stampin’ Up! set, Easy Events. I don’t use this set often and I am not sure why! It is so cute. I made several cards with it the other day and I will show them all this week. I was over at Maggie Patterson’s blog and she used this color combination. I immediately knew I wanted to try it (Melon Mambo, Pretty in Pink, Marina Mist)! I stamped my image with StazOn so that the ink wouldn’t smear. Then I used my colored pencils and a blender pen. It was very relaxing to sit and color! My Melon Mambo Striped Organdy ribbon is from the Spring Catalog. It is also available in Old Olive and Marina Mist. Such pretty Spring colors!
Have a great day!
