Little Sweet Heart congratulations card for Penelope's birth

I made this card to give to Brother and Mel as a congrats on the birth of their baby, Penelope.  I was happy to have the chance to use my Copic markers on a card for a change.  I think it turned out pretty good.  The paper is from the Berry sweet collection from K & co., the little sweet heart stamp and the bird are from Inkadinkado and the monkeys, clouds and  flowers are from Mindy's Zoo stamp set from Autumn Leaves.  I used various Copic markers to color the stamped images.  I don't have the numbers for the colors used right now but if anyone needs them feel free to message me and I will get that information for you. I also used Bazzill Bling card stock for the little green strip and I used my border punch from fiskars on it.  the ribbon and buttons are from unknown source.  I really hope you enjoy this card just as much as I enjoyed making it.  Thanks for stopping by. hugs. amy k

another birthday card;)

I made this card last night for my uncle, Harvey.  He always enjoys getting my handmade cards.  I've heard that he has not thrown one of them away.  How bout that!!  I put a little extra effort into this one.  I wanted to try something new and sense I'm currently into stamping and inks this is what my hands made;p  I never know where a project is going when I sit down to make it.  Does anyone, tho?  I guess there are some people who set out to make a project with a clear picture of what it is they would like the end result to be.  I've never been like that.  I set out knowing that I might need a Birthday card but no idea what I am going to do . That's why I say 'this is what my hands made'.  my brain has little to do with my crafting.... Maybe that's why I enjoy it so....

I made this card using a Tim Holtz stamp set and several colors of distress inks.  I embossed the image and sentiment with black embossing powder and I used a stamp set from Autumn Leaves on the card base.  That's about it.  Hope you enjoy
