May UmWow sketch

Here's another sketch from UmWow.  I've decided to do a mini using just the sketches from this and previous months, and the new Nature Walk line.  Since there are 3 pictures in this sketch, we have 3 cats and I have many pictures of our cats, I decided to highlight our precious fur babies.  One page done, now to figure out what to put on the other pages... Hope you like it!

Supplies used:  UmWowStudio chipboard arrow, letters, and brick mask; Nature Walk 6x6 paper pad (for background and fussy cut flower);  Technique Tuesday sentiment stamp and flower stamp; dragonfly stamp; teal embossing powder; washi and flowered twill ribbon.

Graphic 45 sketch

This is my NSD 2014 project - a Birthday card for my mom, who will be 90 this December.  I love the Graphic 45 line, but only have a couple of their paper packs.  So, this card was made with the Twelve Days of Christmas 12x12 paper pad.  I used only one page from the pack.  The background is the back of the page and the bird and flowers were fussy cut from the front side of the page.  I added glossy accents to the flowers, berries and bird, popped the bird section up over some crocheted lace and heat embossed the sentiment.  I think my mom will like it, since she loves cardinals, flowers, and lace!
