Ah l’amour. Anybody remember Pepe Le Pew; the french skunk always on the look out for love from Looney tunes. Usually things didn’t end well since he was chasing after a cat who wanted nothing to do with the stinky skunk. Well for Jane’s Doodles Challenge #3 theme of love I choose to use Stinks stamp set and dies. These guys are so adorable and definitely the love thing is going to work out for these two, unlike for Pepe Le Pew.
Read MoreIn addition to creating a birthday card full of kitten cuteness for my friend (last post), I also wanted to create a set of cards for her to use. I don’t always mail my cards, but I do like to pull together a set of cards for my friends as birthday pressies. Continuing to use the Oh my Whiskers stamp set from Honey Bee Stamp allowed for a continuity between all the cards and yet they all use different mediums and styles.

The latest challenge over on Your Next Stamp blog gave me the perfect idea for using the wreaths in the stamp set.
Read MoreUltimately when you choose to go the rainbow route what colours should you choose for the rest of the card. The plan from the get go was to create a rainbow unicorn. And initially I was really happy with how the zig clean real brush markers blended to create a rainbow mane and horn. But then how to handle the flowers; rainbow would be just too much, perhaps some light pinks and greens?
Read MoreHow exciting is it that Jane’s Doodles is now hosting challenges. And also very exciting is it that this is my first blog entry being a part of the Jane’s Doodle Challenge Design team. Card making is uber fun, but even more fun when there is a challenge to be had. The theme for the very first ever JD Challenge is a Winter Scene.
Read MoreThis card actually started out with pink penguins, but they just didn’t seem to work as well as the blues ones did with this wintery wonderland look. I’m sure the pink penguins will show up in a card soon. They are patiently waiting sitting in that pile on my desk of half thought out ideas.
