It really has been a long time since I have posted here.  I have been very busy with my Zentangle® work including doing my first art show.  That hasn't kept me from my card making but just from posting here.  I am showcasing some of my cards that I have made,  including the start of my Christmas cards.  Enjoy...

The first 2 cards were done by tangling on pressed leaves.

 This card is being entered in the My Favorite Things sketch challenge

This card was made with a place card from a luncheon that I attended.  

It just screamed make me into a shaker card! 

I made this card from a napkin from a neighborhood party that I attended.

This card was made from a black & white post card.  I colored it with colored pencils

and gamsol.  I die cut the sentiment and added the stones that I colored with Copic Markers.

I decided to try a negative space die cut card.  I now have the positive cuts to make another card.

Another Zentangle Inspired Art (ZIA) card.

This card is so much prettier in person.  It is actually very sparkly...

This card is also being entered into My Favorite Things sketch challenge.

Till next time...

Love Swans

Hi all.  Today I am showcasing a file called Love Swans by Imagine That Digi Stamps.  Even though this was intended to be a Valentine set, It is also great to use for a wedding or anniversary card.  I used Spectrum Noir and Copic markers to color the image.   I used a Nestabilities, die cut, to cut out the image and another of the same size, in black, which I cut in half and used as a shadow behind the image.  A Martha Steward punch was used on the bottom of the card and I added a strip of pink card stock on the inside, to make the punch, pop out.  A piece of pink washi tape was added along the top.  I hope you enjoy my project.  Please leave a comment so that I know you were here.  

Till next time...
