Off Their Rockers Swap

this was fun...another "seniors" image card swap...and since it was "Off Their Rockers"...i went with a crazy stella digi...i used a different sentiment...one of my favorite sayings...i even have it on a t-shirt...

thanks for all the encouragement on my new do...everyone here has gotten used to it...though the day after my nephew Q was surprised it hadn't grown back over night...which is funny since his dad has been bald since before Q was born...i guess it's because he (my bro) shaves what little bit grows during the week (week o'clock shadow?)...

well here's my stella...

CASES #4

i should probably do these friday nights so i can post them early saturday morning...but then it's not CASES it's CASEF...and that's an abysmal acronym if you ask me...something the military could pull off but not me...remember i like word fun/puns...speaking of which...or is that witch...*cackle*

the card i CASE'd was created by Aucrazy ...with a bugaboo digi that i already had...you will be seeing it again when i post some swap cards i have been working on...the original card is here on SCS

Witch's Feet by Aucrazy

i  added text to the digi in Picasa...(word fun/pun!!)...and to make this BONUS extra FLUFFY!..i had the colored dots and a spiderweb paper in my stash...(ok so i "permanently borrowed" the spiderweb paper from my daughter's stash...sheesh!)

Smell My Witch's Feet
Paper: whisper white..elegant eggplant..pumpkin pie..dp

I really loved doing this CASES...hope you all enjoy it...be safe/be well...

What Color Is Your Hair? Swap

i know it's been awhile...i have done some cards for swaps...just not posted...better late than never right?

i had fun with this swap... i chose gray hair and red hair...love the bugaboo digi stamps i used for these...especially Stella...she hits my funny bone...the first card sums up my summer days...not that my glass always has a "cocktail" in it but i sit outside sipping and sunning...

5 O'Clock Stella

Ink: Printer..Markers
Stamp: Stella 5 o'clock
Accessories: Flower punch..gems..black embossing powder

5 O'Clock Stella Inside

the other card features JJ and is exactly how i feel about vacuuming...best thing about having my kids was letting them do that chore for me...i'd rather scrub a floor than vacuum...go figure...

JJ Vacuum

Caffeine Crazy Swap

i LOVE coffee...and tea...especially chai...so of course i signed up for this swap...2 spots....i went with the other Stella i colored and i'm very happy with how it turned out...the sentiment is inside and reads "Touch My Coffee and See What Happens!...

Touch my Coffee
Paper: really rust..summer sun..whisper white..homemade dp
Ink: printer..SU markers
Stamp: Stella ~ Touch my Coffee
Accessories: ribbon..buttons

the 2nd card is a revamp of a card i previously posted for a color challenge...i changed the ribbon...and it is interesting (to me) that it seemed to really change the card's look/focus...but hey i could be wrong...i was amp'd on coffee!

Caffeine Problem
Paper: early espresso..very vanilla..real red
Ink: early espresso
Stamps: Coffee Cafe
Accessories: ribbon..crimper

thx for looking...be safe/be well all!

Stella

i was doing some mock ups for a caffeine crazy swap i'm in @ SCS...and decided the "Stella ~ touch my coffee" digi stamp from Bugaboo would be perfect...and i'd get to practice my coloring skills...or lack there of...lol...and i worked on these cards on "World Card Making Day"...so i feel i really accomplished something!...

Stella ~ Touch my Coffee
Paper: summer sun..lavender lace
Ink: printer..SU markers
Stamps: Stella~touch my coffee..coffee cafe
Accessories: paper flower..ribbon..CB EF D'vine swirls

i ended up doing 2 different color schemes...this is the one i decided not to use for the swap...so i'll post those in a few days...on this one i decided not to use the sentiment that came with this digi...instead i used one that reads "I don't do mornings..until I've had my coffee"...which my oldest dd says is "sooo you!"..i think i might just have to send it to my bff since i miss my morning coffee with her...be safe/be well all

Naughty...But Nice Swap

Paper: whisper white..night of navy..ridinghood red

Ink: printer

Stamp: Bugaboo Stamps digi sassy nurse

Accessories: red stickles

the idea for this swap was to do cards that were slightly naughty...but still "nice"...i saw this digi stamp from Bugaboo Stamps...and knew it was the one for this card...i colored her on my computer... i tried coloring with pencils and markers but she didn't look right...i used red stickles on her shoes for the "bling"...printed the sentiment and assembled...so i wasn't standing for too long...or worse...sitting...be safe/be well everyone

p.s. the sentiment i almost used was: Wanna play Doctor?

p.p.s. i entered her in Bugaboo Stamps April Anything Goes Challenge
