Whipper Snapper - Girl Turtle

Whipper Snapper Design stamps are one of my most prized stamps.  I love the charm that goes into the expressions on these stamps and it makes my tummy warm and fuzzy.  I dug up this stamp from my Whipper Snapper box.  Since I'm making cards this weekend for some female soldiers, I thought this girl turtle would be perfect!

Kidlets

Thank you to KD for the paper samples.  I really love them.  I have way too much craft supplies and not making enough cards to justify more purchases.  I did spend this evening listening to the HP book 7 audiobook (waiting anxiously for opening night!).  I made this cute butterfly cutie bear (digi image) to send back to KD before I leave to Yosemite.  :D  I'm very happy!

Natural Beauty

Here is another card that I have made for one of our special ladies overseas.  I used Stampin' Up! Natural Beauty stamp set.  I colored the images with copic markers (my addiction).  I used colors Y11, Y000, G12, G82, B16, B000, B04, Y38.  This is the first time I attempted to make my own dew drops using crystal lacquer.  I used a toothpick to add SU! reinkers just on the surface of the dew drops shortly after squeezing a 1/4 pea-sized amount onto wax paper.  I dried them over-night.

Angel

My latest card for a special female soldier overseas.  This card will be a part of the Soldiers' Angels - Ladies of Liberty care package.  I am very proud to be a part of this wonderful organization and hope our special ladies will return home soon.

For Sean

I attended my first SCS Tuesday Teapotting Party.  I cannot begin to express the talents of these SCS stampers.  I was very humbled to see their cards for Sean.  He is a young man that is battling testicular cancer.  My heart and prayers go out to him and his friends and family.  This card was made especially for him

Dragon Love

This is one of my favorite SU! sets called "Darling Dragons."  Whenever I get upset at my husband for something, he always jokes and calls me his "fire-y dragon."  I couldn't wait to make this card for him.  Now, I can't wait to give it to him! This is the second Valentine's Day card I've made for this challenge.  I can't wait to get them out to the ladies overseas on Saturday. 

Be Mine

For today's SCS Challenge, I submitted my "Be Mine" file folder card that I made for my niece.  I had a lot of fun playing around and readjusting the template.  I also created the file cards with tab inserts for it.  It was a lot of fun and I plan to make more to send out for the wonderful ladies overseas for Valentine's Day.
