One layer birthday

So today I have a super quick and easy one layer card for the OLW9 challenge over at Simplicity.  Susan wants us to use a flourish in our design and this is what I came up with.  A combination of a Close to my Heart flourish, Papertrey Ink sentiment and Hero Arts bird stamp with a touch of copic markers -- and done.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Paper - PTI Stamper's Select White

Challenging myself :)

So, I decided to challenge myself a little again today.  Another one layer card for the OLW challenge on Susan's blog.  This Wednesday's challenge?  To use a faux embellishment stamp.

My color inspiration comes from the moxie fab world Tuesday Trigger.

My faux embellishment is the stitched flourish that I used as steam from that delicious cup of coffee.  The flourish stamp is CTMH.  I also used copics with the super cute Hero Arts What's Perking stamp set.  The paper is PTI select white, which I have been in love with ever since the amazing Kasia introduced me to the it!

What's perking?

Hello and happy Thursday!  After a little stretch of working, I finally have some time to craft again!  Today I've combined two things I love - coffee and copics.  :)

Todays card is based on the CPS challenge sketch - check it out here.  I had a fun time putting this one together - and playing with my copics....I've got some more ordered and I can't wait until they arrive.  They are very addictive!
