This one is a small 6" x 61/4" piece. I used Folkart Extreme Glitter Turquoise for the background then stamped the cups using StazOn black ink and Fiskars Latte Love stamps The flowers are a mixture of  Petaloo Botanica Collection, Prima Flowers and K and Company. The crystals are from Primas Say It In Crystals. The frame is just paper that I painted using Americana Antique White. I have a very, and I mean VERY old antique typewriter that I typed the quote on. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day.

Morning everyone. This is a piece I finished this morning, love getting up earlybut it is so hard when you go to bed so late. LOL Can't have it both ways.
this wall or door hanger is made from cardboard. I used Ameriana Buttermilk, Jack-O-Lantern Orange and Antigue White acrylic paints, Designer paper is October afternoon Modern Homemaker which I went around with Tim Holtz Vintage Photo stamp pad. I used buttons from my stash for the eyes and the ribbon on the "Welcome " sign is just from my stash but the rick rack is from Stampin Up (Pigtails). I used my new Pigma Micron Pens for the writing ( I have been wanting these pens for ever and finally broke down and ordered them) I lightly sanded the cardboard before painting to get the rough edges off and then used Aleen's Fast Grab Tacky Glue to glue the DS paper on. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day.

This is a piece I had been working on for a few days. I used sewing (by hand), acrylic paints and markers in a few places. I really like how it turned out. I did use Stampin Up stamps for the bird and flowers. The bird house was drawn free hand. I really liked the way this turned out. The sewing took the longest LOL but in the end, I really liked it. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day.

This was done using paper napkins for the house, acrylic paints and for the lettering I used Stamin Up stamps I had. I loved the layers and those paper napkins were so beautiful, they were had to use from my stash. LOL Thank goodness I have more :)

This one was done just for fun, but I really liked the final results. The stencil of the girl was believe it or not from the Crayola section in our local Walgreens store. The quote was one I found that I really liked by Ayn Rand. Thanks for looking.
This canvas was done using craps of paper and again those beautiful flowers from a friends (Thanks Pam). The quote is one that my grandmother had hanging in her kitchen and I remember it from my childhood. I read it every time I went there. Ahhhh the memories. I had the greatest grandparents you could ask for.
