ICAD DAY #7

Bowl of Cherries

I just went with an simple card today.  I wanted the image to really be the focus.  I love those bowls teetering around.  I used Distress Markers with my homemade Perfect Pearls Spray to color the background and the image.  The bowl of cherries is the Stamp of the Week for Unity Stamp Co. called Out on a Limb stamped with Memento Luxe Rich Cocoa.  It did come with a sentiment but I really just wanted it to be all about the cherries.  I used a fan brush to make the rays coming away from the cherries.

There is so much shine and glitter I just love it.  I used Wink of Stella Clear on the cherries.


All the colors of Distress Markers I used:

• Broken China
• Chipped Sapphire
• Tumbled Glass
• Mermaid Lagoon
• Barn Door
• Faded Jeans
• Abandoned Coral
• Twisted Citron

Leave me a comment, I would love to hear what you think about my cards.

Happy Crafting!

ICAD DAY #5

I just had to make something with mason jars,  I made some blueberry jam yesterday, and here is a card inspired by that cooking.

Aren't these lighting bugs just two cute with their Wink of Stella lights?  I used water color paper with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  I colored the jam and the lighting bugs with Stampin' Up Blackberry Bliss. Watermelon Wonder and Hello Honey.  The tops were stamped with Lost Lagoon and Cucumber Crush.

Happy Crafting!
