CASology: MOM

I can hardly believe it has been 9 years since my Mom left this world to enter eternal life.

I am happy for her, but can't help but be sad for me...I miss her.

My church has a Women's Luncheon always the Saturday before Mother's Day...to celebrate all women...any age!

I sell my cards that day and give back to the church.

This is one of the cards I will sell, no mother, no mother-in-law to give it to...

This is for CASology cue word:  MOM

Altenew Watercolor Day 2 ~ Smooshed

I was wanting to try this design from day 2, but I didn't have enough leftover pieces to do it.

So I made another one and knew it was going to be a sympathy card, so I chose some soft distress inks to smoosh,  The flower is Altenew Persian Motifs.  The sentiment is a PTI Think Big #3 embossed with HA silver EP and the silver glitter tape is from Paper Source...and of course a few silver sequins from PPP.

I am enjoying this class a lot!

Thanks for stopping by!

Heart Hugs!!

30 Day Color Challenge

I managed to find time to color in between sneezing and coughing this weekend.

I think I am now on the mend.

I love this Persian Motif from Altnew, I colored it up with copics, added a strip of washi tape on the side and stamped the sentiment from Love Labels an Altnew set also.

It really does help to color every day to get better...and to not forget, that is my problem!

This is for the 30 Day Coloring Challenge

over at the Daily Marker.

Thanks for taking a look, supposed to be 93 today and it is already 87!!

Heart Hugs,

PPP WatercolorBlog Hop and the 30 day Coloring Challenge

I water colored this Altnew Stamp: Persian Motifs with the Zig Clear Real brush pens.

The sequins are from Pretty Pink Posh the clear both 4mm and 6mm I bought the 6mm ones when I was in Seattle visiting my BFF...we went to Impress and I loaded up on some fun colors from PPP, I do think my favorites are the clear though!

Since I am not an artist, I find it easier for me to use one color and draw it out to get the shading.  So that is what I did here with these flowers and leaves.  

The sentiment is a die from SSS.

I am joining in the fun over at Pretty Pink Posh with the Watercolor Blog Hop and also entering this in the 30 day Coloring Challenge.

 

a little Watercoloring...

I couldn't resist the new Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens

and they are the easiest water color pens to use!

Here is a sympathy card I made using the pens and an

Altnew stamp:  Persian Motifs

I am entering this in the Live Love Cards Watercolor challenge.

I white embossed the images then used the water color pens, I used two for the flowers, yellow and lite carmine and used lite green for the leaves, but by going soft, I was able to pull some of the color and then add more for the shading.  I outlined the image with a cobalt blue pen.

The sentiment is from PTI Think Big

Heading to Seattle for a 3 day Volleyball tournament for the granddaughters, then I am staying 5 days with my BFF for some fun stamping time!
