Lily Pad Challenge Kathy's Color Throwdown

This card was made by stamping the vases, stems, stem with leaf and flowers individually, they I Ranger Inked the background.  Then I used the Hero Arts stamps: writing, envelope and the Love you.  Added pearls and ribbon.  I matted it after I distressed and turned the corner and edges.

Here is my card for May's Card Chain Challenge by Lily Pad Cards.  I will mail it to someone - I don't know who yet and then I will get one from someone else!  Fun huh?!

This is hand stamped in chocolate and colored with copics.  I added a little Flower Soft and glitter to the center of some of the flowers.  Hope you enjoy it!

Finished Eggs on a nest of Denim!

Cut tissue strips

This is a short tutorial on how to make these cute Easter Eggs!

Out of any kind of tissue you want.

They are about 5 inches by 1.25 inches.

Get some white plastic eggs.

Use any glue, this is what I used and water it down.

Dip the tissue into the watered down glue.

Baseball Baby Shower

So my friends and I had an amazing Baby Shower for a special girlfriend who is the Gramma of this precious boy.  We started with a sports theme and then narrowed down to the baseball theme.  This is the Invitation, I stitched the sides of the original and then scanned it and entered the text.

 This is the table, Janice did all the flowers, in jars set in baseball mitts.  She also used real baseball cards, bats and trophies.

 This big flower arrangement was amazing with the peanuts around the interior vase.

 The mantle was decorated with a banner and trophies. So stinking cute!
                                                                            

 Our favors were Cracker Jacks in a huge basket complete with baseball bat by the door as guests left.

 The food was delicious!
