I've got a Cold


Good Evening All, I haven't been feeling up to doing much. Finally caught my first sinus cold of the whole winter. Yuk! I feel terrible. I finished this card late Friday Night and then haven't done anything else. I'm busy keeping NyQuil's owners in new cars. I'm sure they have medical insurance too. We don't! Alright, enough whining. Here you go. This was done with Copics and a few highlights here and there with my Stardust Gelly Roll Pens from Sakura. They are my favorite go to pens for giving some shimmer and shine to my cards. I don't think you can see them in the scanned version. I like them way better than the Copic Spica Pens, but they have their uses too. I also embossed this with Momento Tux Blk ink and clear fine detail embossing powder. I like the look of the finished product when you do this. Okay, off to swig more NyQuil. See ya later on.

Scrapbooking all caught up! Cards! Cards! Cards!

Good Morning Everyone, Just a quick post to show some
of my most recent cards. This one is done in Copics. On
her hat I used my Blender pen to take some of the black
off after I colored it to get a worn look.

This is a digi stamp image from http://charmedcardsandcrafts.co.uk/.
The orange BG paper is from Martha Stewarts Bandana Paper Pad.

Aren't these Shy Bears from
SusanandFriends Stamp Line too cute? . This one is done
in Prismacolor pencils and OMS.


I did this Shy Bear in Copics. I try to leave
the sentiments off until I know what I'm going
to use them for.




Have any of you ever had any success selling
your cards? I tried Etsy. Not a single one sold.
I've tried a personal website and had to cancel
it cause it was costing more than I brought in
which was NOTHING!

Would love your feedback on these cards,
maybe what I'm doing that could be improved,
ideas about selling cards?????
See ya later! Prismadonna (Lisa)

Umbrella Digi Stamp


I had colored quite a few stamps over the last couple of days, and just spent a couple of hours finishing them into cards. This is also a digi stamp from 'Charmed Cards' in the UK. Done in Copics and Pebbles Chalks. I try to use up whole pieces of Patterend CS so you'll see several cards with the same paper. I just don't have room for a million pieces of scrap paper. I tend to leave the cards blank as far as sentiments go until I know what I'm going to use the card for. Then I add it. I'll put a little bit of matching stuff on the inside of the card ready for a stamped saying.

Sweet Little Digi Stamp


This was a Digital Stamp I purchased from the UK website called 'Charmed Cards'. They have some really great Stamps. I printed it on Papertrey Ink CS and it is done in Copics and Chalk for background color.

Hey Everybody-I'm Here!



2/17/10 I'm new to the blogging. I had created a website, but why pay for a website when you can blog for free. It will take me a while to get everything set up correctly..... I am a cardmaker & scrapbooker and will be sharing my work here. I'm playing around with Digi Stamps right now. Trying to find the exact right combination of paper and ink to use for this. Having to print Digi Stamps with Inkjet Ink is not ideal as on some papers, it smears when you use Copics. I just printed some using Gina K Luxury CS and I'm letting it 'cure'. I'll let you know how it goes.
