Another great nephew has turned 16 so it was time again for another car card :) Using the car die from an old advent calendar :) The paper pack had cut out tags in it and that is what I used to stamp the sentiment and add his name with stickers.
One of the ladies in our group told us about a little girl in her town that has had cancer in the past and sadly is dealing with it again and has lost one leg already. She is turning 10 and she asked if any of us would like to make her a card and send it. I decided on this cute little girl. I have had her for a lot of years now and this is the first time using her, I am thinking what took me so long is she is on purple rubber with no padding and sticky on the back so I ended up using double stick tape to add to the back of the stamp and used it in my stamp positioner, let me just say that the double sided scotch tape worked great, too great as I had a heck of a time removing it from my Misti after I was done stamping.
It has been awhile since I did some die cuts with flowers and I hadn't used this pot in some time so why not combine them :) I cut a frame with the arch dies by putting two sizes of them together and cutting them at the same time. The stencil is thinner than my card base so I had to try and piece it together to cover the front, can you see the seam?
I went with a digital stamp for my next card, I hadn't done one for awhile and thought this would be nice for my friend. I used a stencil to add a bit of inking to ground it.
I am determined to use the goodies once again from the advent calendars this past year and so today I brought out the cat die and sentiment for this card for our great niece. I cut the cat from some paper I had that I smooshed ink onto, thought it would make a great spotted cat :) The background is a scrap of pattern paper that I stenciled the clouds onto and the heart is from another scrap.
