Globes & Doggies

Hi, friends!  It's coming down to the wire for us to leave, and so I am trying very hard to get all my cards posted!  You may hear a lot from me tonight...let's get started!  I'm doing 2 cards per post right now so I can show these things off! ;)

Here's my first card for this post~

For these fabulous challenges~




I had TONS of fun with this card!   As soon as I saw the colors at CASF, I KNEW I had to use my new globe stamp sent to my from my dear blogging friend, Katy, from a Jillybean Soup set.  The sentiment is from Stampin' Up!  I also knew I wanted to watercolor and use my homemade glimmer mist to add paint splatters.  A large layered pennant seemed appropriate and some dry embossed gears by Tim Holtz as a background and to add texture for the white on white, a bit of bling and there it is! ;)  And now onto another card!

Here it is~

This one was so fun to make--I colored the doggie to look like my sweet fur baby then added some glitter glue for some added interested.  Layered it onto fun summery paper and added a sentiment and some bling and there you go!

Thanks for taking some time out of your day to come and look at my cards--your kind words and encouragement mean the world to me!  Happy stamping, friends! :)
