Life is Beautiful With (Feathery) Friends


Hello! It's been a while since I posted, and I can totally relate to the sentiment above! Summertime is always so busy...trying to cram in trips to the beach, BBQ's with family and other warm weather activities while we still have the chance. Anyways... I had to share this adorable (if I do say so myself!) card I created using the Feathery Friends stamp set.


The images in this set just make me smile! I just love the acute birds! They are super fun to watercolor too! I used my Aqua Painter and went to town using a variety of inks pooled in the lids of my ink pad. If you've never done this, it's easy...just give yr inkpad a squeeze and you have an instant pallet right in the lid. The Feathery Friends stamp set can be ordered with hostess rewards, as it is a host set. The sentiment is from the Colorful Seasons stamp set...don't you  just love the font they used? It's an awesome saying too...because life truly is a beautiful thing!

Have a beautiful weekend!

You've Got Style

The You've Got Style stamp set is normally not a set I would choose, but the eccentric looking lady featured in this set cracked me up!


Hopefully my friends will feel the same when they receive birthday cards featuring her in the coming year!

She was fun to watercolor using my Aqua Painter and ink pooled inside the lids of my ink pads. You cannot really tell from photo, but I also used Wink of Stella on her bling to add some sparkle.

Lemon Lime Twist and Berry Burst is the color combo I used. The Black Mini Sequin Trim adds some style layered over the Berry Burst Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon.

Have a great day!
