Bread and Jam

Happy Monday! I hope everyone has a restful weekend. We had a busy one again but it was a good one. We managed to get a ton of stuff done. The house got cleaned from top to bottom and the bathroom closet got cleaned out… that’s always a dreaded project at my house… I hate cleaning closets. Laundry has been finished… tons of it. Two birthday parties were attended… it was a good time all around. And let’s not forget football… GO CHIEFS!!! :D

I wanted to share a card that’s been in my stash for awhile and I haven’t gotten around to sharing it. This one uses Bread and Jam digi from The Greeting Farm’s Critter Crew. Isn’t he adorable! I love this little guy. I colored him with Copics to match Basic Greys’ Oliver paper line. I kept this one pretty simple with just a bit of the inking around the edges and a couple of stacked paper flowers from Prima. This one didn’t photograph all that well… the darks are a bit washed out.

It’s going to be a busy week around here this week… lots of sneak peaks and previews! :D Check back!! :D

It’s time for Back to School at the Farm and not just any school… but OLD SCHOOL! Marie and Jess have issued a challenge to get back to basics and use some of those old Anya and Ian stamps… the ones before there were so many friends on the farm.

For my card I used Mermaid Anya. She is one of my all time faves and SO versatile and a blast to color. I created a scene for her out of My Mind’s Eye Quite Contrary papers and a bit of London Fog Bazzill card stock. I cut the rocks out with my Large and Small Classic Circle Nestabilities and sponged the edges with Walnut Stain Distress Ink to make them pop out a bit. Then I drew some sea weed on to some green swirl paper in the Quite Contrary collection, cut them out and sponged them with Peeled Paint Distress Ink. Next I used a large rick rack die to cut the pink sand at the bottom and I sponged it with a bit of Barn Door Distress Ink. The background water is sponged with a mix of Peeled Paint and Broken China Distress Ink. I glued it all down, popped Anya up on some dimensionals and then add a few rhinestones to her hair and clear Dew Drops to the water for bubbles. I wanted to add a sentiment down in the sand but couldn’t find the one I was looking for. :( I need to dig around for it.
