Happy Birthday Owl, Mahalo and Bubbly Inspiration






Lawnscaping is turning 4 and they are having a birthday party.  Happy Birthday Lawnscaping.  I am also entering this card at Simon Says Wednesday:  Ice Inspiration, Simon Says Monday:  The Blues, and Addicted to CAS:  Die Cuts.








My next card is for Make it Monday #147:  Multi-Layer Images from a Single Stamp.  I pulled out an old favorite, Aloha and stamped the surfboard several times, once on white, then Simply Chartreuse, then Hibiscus Burst--cut them all out and put it back together on a Spiral Notebook die cut.  I used this weeks sketch from Freshly Made Sketches #118.





Have you heard that I am now on the DT at CASology?  You have probably heard, because I have been shouting it from the rooftops.  This is my first week on the DT, and I went a little overboard getting ready for my big debut.  I made a bunch of cards for 'BUBBLY' (yes, I really am that much of a dork) and then posted my favorite one.  Have you played yet?  Want some more inspiration?  Here are the cards that did not get picked for my DT post--perhaps one of them will inspire you. 

First Runner Up

Inspired by Nicole Heady's Card



Inspired by Maile Belle's Card
It's not too late for you to play at CASology.  How are you inspired by BUBBLY?

That's it for me today.  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.


Thanks for Visiting

  3. Beautiful surfboard - great dimension from the layers. Love winter owl- can see how the dies give a much smoother edge than my cutting! All of the bubbly cards are fabulous (love champagne).

  8. Wow! You really did go to town preparing for your big debut. I don't know how you finally chose the one you wanted to post...that must have been tough! I really like the one that has the congratulations banner on it...still like your debut card a teeny bit more, but I think it is because I saw it first!

  16. I really love that you showed your runners up, almost as much as I love that you made them!! I'm always intrigued on variations of things, which is why I love seeing what people come up with for the same challenge, I suppose. I also love your famous owl, looking like he could not care less that he's in the middle of a blizzard!

  17. Wonderful...all of them! And I love that you created a ton of cards for your DT post. I think if I was ever on a DT I would do exactly the same thing. I'm so glad you shared all of them because each one is fantastic. So happy for you!

  18. Ha...your post made me chuckle! I have done that, too (i.e., made several cards for the cue word -- guess I'm a bit of a dork, too!). I love all your cards, especially the third one with the banner over the glasses! All great cards!
