Fall Pet Cards

Well, happy September everyone! Here's a set of cool fall cards to help get us into the mood, soon my Halloween and Thanksgiving things will start to arrive on the bloggo! Until then, enjoy these Autumn inspired cards. The trick to this loose water color look, is to ink your stamps as usual, then spray them gently with a mist of water, and stamp onto water color paper. The more you mist, the softer the image.

Ingredients: (All SU! unless otherwise mentioned)
Watercolor Paper, More Mustard CS, Early Espresso Classic Ink, Garden Green Classic Ink, Cajun Craze Classic Ink, Basic Grey Classic Ink, StazOn Black Ink, Aqua Painter

Grade 5 Mother's Day Project

Hi all! I created these for my brothers grade 5 class to make for Mother's Day presents. I wanted a "boy" version and a "girl" version, although, of course they can make any version they choose! Also, as a note, I've made the executive decision that the frame on the left is the one we will be using...someone (namely me!) will get lacerated trying to put the frame on the right assembled!

ps-These pretties will be one of the projects made at my Mom'n'Me Mothers Day Class (May 1, 1:00-3:00) ;o)
