Pengiuns in Springtime

This is a card I had to do for my Stamperscorner Yahoo Group COTM. The theme was penguins. So even though Spring has sprung and it is almost 70 degrees in Los Angeles today, I present you with pengiuns. I used this weeks Splitcoaststampers sketch of the week, SC377. I turned it sideways and used a stamp from Cat's Pajamas. The card base is Marina Mist cardstock. I used some patterned paper from my mile high stash for the two horizontal panels. I'm not sure who makes it but they are layered on top of Night of Navy cardstock. I also used my polka dot embossing folder and Nestibilities and half pearls to finish the card. I colored the hat, scarfs and sled with my Prismas and baby oil. I hope you enjoy the card and thanks for visiting.

Circus Riley

I finally played with my Riley Circus stamps that I order last month. This one is Juggling Riley. I made it for my Inkyfunstampers Yahoo Swap group. The theme was Latest Purchase. I used Stampin Up Daffodil Delight, Real Read, Basic Black and Whisper White Cardstock with Basic Grey Le Cirque patterned paper (The yellow with black dots) and Recollections patterned paper (The Red Striped). I colored with my Prisma pencils and baby oil.

Writing Riley

Here is another card I made with one of my new Riley stamps. This one is Writing Riley. The "hello" sentiment is from the SU Tiny Teacup single stamp. I cut apart the teacup and the sentiment and made them unmounted stamps. I used Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso and Whisper White cardstock, Greenhouse Gala DSP and Basic Black Ink. I colored the image in with my Prisma colored pencils and blended with baby oil.

I haven't posted in awhile but I have been shopping. I bought some new Riley stamps. Here is a card I made with Poppin Pumpkin Riley. I used SU Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry, Cajun Craze cardstock, Wicked DSP and Basic Black ink. I colored Riley in with Prisma pencils and blended with baby oil.
