On your birthday...

...a few words of wisdom:



Smile, while you still have teeth!

Art Impressions' T1920 - No comments:

Burger Time!

You're not experiencing a Déjà Vu, I have indeed posted a very similar card last year, made entirely with punches.

.

On this one, I used some green paper napkin for the lettuce, rather than a punch. I bunched the paper up and pressed it into a green ink pad, for a little more dimension. Oh, and I also punched a few holes in the cheese, LOL.

For the envelope, I used part of an old stamp from The Peddler's Pack. It's RN1086F - Whopper Love Affair.



H2829 - Eat, Live... is from Art Impressions

Hungry yet? Cheerio - Isabelle

Out to Lunch

Another great new stamp from Art Impressions



The Stamp:
UMQ3590 - Out to Lunch Out to Lunch

No judgement...

As promised, I am back with a picture of myself, with my three new Girlfriends.



I had such a blast with these gals. But, as you can see, we got a little sunburn. We simply must be more vigilant about re-applying the sunscreen!!!

The stamps:
U3573 - Girlfriends
G3574 - Friends Judge
F3572 - Happy 29th

The sentiment on the inside is actually my favourite, LOL!!



All these stamps (plus one more) can also be purchased as a set of unmounted Cling stamps. (UM3577 - Girlfriends)



There are more new Art Impressions 'Girlfriends' stamps available at The Stampbuzz.

Wishing you many happy stamping hours, and if you go cruisin' with your girlfriends this weekend, don't forget the sunscreen!!

Dance like no one's watching...

...who can have you committed!

Can you guess which one of these dancers is me? Come back soon and I will show you a picture of myself and my three new friends on a recent cruise.

In the meantime, you can have these gorjuss gals prance across your papers, if you like. They come in a set of four unmounted cling stamps from Art Impressions, from a brand new line aptly called 'Girlfriends'.

The set includes the dancers and four matching and witty sayings.

Oh, I coloured the image with Copic markers and added a little glitter to the tutus. Gotta run, I've been called back to the barre to practice my Arabesque. Aaaaand one, two, three. One.....

Sledding Penguins

This seems appropriate, since there's been sooo much snow in many parts of the country.



Q3062 - Sleeding Penguins from Art Impressions

Wishing you many happy stamping hours! Isabelle

But here's the first one:

She is part of Art Impressions' 'Good Heavens!' Line.

T2368 - 'Hope'
F2372 - Glorious Day
H2370 - Heavenly Cloud
F2385 - Sm. Heavenly Cloud

Cheerio, my faithful blog readers - Isabelle

Birdie & the Girls

Forget about the swine flu! My husband is absolutely convinced I have a chronic bird flu, because I love, love, love my chicken stamps, LOL.




I stamped these chicks (from Art Impressions) on a square Fabriano Medioevals Soft White deckle-edged card and watercoloured it, mostly with markers and an aquapainter.

Both U1837 - Birdie & the Girls and C1853 - Made the Cover are available at The Stampbuzz.

Cheerio - Isabelle

Lovelle

Clearly, Lovelle is a broad with attitude and advise for everyone.


I computer generated the sentiment and then stamped the image in black Memories ink on white card stock. Hope your not getting tired of this yet, but I coloured Lovelle with Prismacolour Pencils and Gamsol. What else?

The sentiment loosely translates to: If someone should call you old, then hit him with your cane and throw your dentures at him. Happy Birthday! Now doesn't that sound like something Lovelle would indeed say?

The Stamp:

T2635 by Art Impressions

Shoppers

Here are two bargain hunters who know how to take advantage of a good sale and stimulate the economy at the same time!


Computer generated sentiment (again, sorry). The image was stamped in black Memories ink and coloured with Prismcolor Pencils and Gamsol. So glad I finally discovered this easy, yet delightful technique.
