Scarecrow


I love this stamp! But he took forever to color and stamp to get a good impression without smudges or faint spots. I think I made like 60 impressions to get 25 cards, grrr. The pumpkins are glitter stickers that don't really show up well in the scan. The background is stippling done with a stiff brush and blue and purple inks. Thanks draygonflies for that suggestion!

Letterbox


I saw this cute image and had to carve it for the GAQLBE08. Of course, I had to also make LTCs with it before sending it off to NY. It took a while to get the colors right, but I finally matched the corner borders to the stamp image in a photo editing program. The letters are stuck on with glue dots.

Vineyard


This card is for "The Game of Clue, Too!" I needed a location and finally came up with the vineyard. A simple image, but I think it works. I even drew the wine glass in a photo editing program. So if you're wondering what's wrong with it, that's it, lol.

Yellow Polkadot Bikini


I got the idea for this card when I found some ribbon that I thought would look great for the strings of this bikini. Unfortunately, that didn't work. I had to settle for framing the stamp.

Happy Cake Day!

The Mysterious Ms. Betty













I created this card for "The Game of Clue" swap. She is my contribution of a suspect. The cards all have her with a veil, but I wanted to show what she'd look like without it too.

Behind the... (Adult oriented)

Because this one is adult oriented, I won't be posting a picture. Let's just say they are behind the... bush (and flowered paper). ;-)
