Tried something different this time.   I love this butterfly stamp, but might think it a bit overwhelming on this card, but did it anyway.  Used a Sissix in the background, used watercolor paper and painted the main image and set it off with StampnUp certainly celery paper.  Added a little bit of sparkle to the flowers, but you probably can't see that in this photo.  Didn't add a message -- sometimes I like to leave the message off.

This is another digi stamp that I got from the Bugaboo Stamp website.  I used my score pal to make the frame around the picture, some Stampin Up paper and my copics, along with Stampin Up punches, then added just a little sparkling baubles.  I don't usually use turquoise and green paper together, but this seemed to work.

This is another digi stamp from Bugaboo stamps.  It is always fun working with little kids with the big heads.  Thought this girlie card good for a female who loves baseball, especially this time of year with the World Series wrapping up.

This was a freebie from Bugaboo Digi  Stamps. Just in time for Halloween.  Although Halloween isn't a favorite time of mine, this little guy is just too cute not to do something with him.  Added lots of sparkle to his stars and a little in the background.  Bugaboo gives away a stamp or two every so often.

Here I am again, trying another digi stamp,  I love the message and this crazy lady.  There are two digi sites which have really cute clip art -- Bugaboo and Whimsey, both of which I have used.  Sometimes they offer free stamps, which is a nice feature.  Digi stamps are less expensive than rubber or acrylic stamps and can also be used over and over again.  If you can't read the message, "If you think nobody cares about you, try missing a couple of car payments".

Tried a second card with this funny little girl.    I've been told that comment posting on my site isn't working. I'm new at this blogging stuff and cannot seem to fix the problem. You'll have to give an old lady a break.  If you really want to comment, please email me at marian.bonney@gmail.com.  Thanks.

I wanted to do a picture that looked somewhat like a watercolor.  I first tinted the background green at the bottom of the paper and then dabbed pink.  Finally I stamped the StampinUp image. To accent the picture, I chose Prima paper behind the image.
