Making Motion

I gave this card to a basketball fan, turning 50!  I used retired products but wanted you to see you can show motion with masking. 

I stamped the basketball full strength.  Then stamped it on a post-it and cut it out.   Now place the post-it over the basketball, stamp off ink once and stamp.  Then mask again, stamp off twice and stamp basketball.  Keep going until your ink is too light or you have the amount of motion you want.

Welcome Easter

Who can resist these cute little animals?  Perfect for a baby card!  Blends and circle dies bring life to the card.

Witty-cisms Grad Card

I can't take credit for this one, www.stempellicht.de had it on Instagram.  I did have to use Google Translate to figure it all out.  Thanks, Google!   This sweet card is headed to one of my best friend's daughter for HS graduation!   Adding the inside stamping made it the perfect card.   

Just BEE cause

How about an owl? I also used circle punches and the perennial flower punch. Double layered the pineapple with Early Espresso and Soft Suede. Turning the ”v’s” opposite directions. #craftingwithcarm

Wallpaper

I have been sitting on this idea for a while.  I wanted to recreate the wallpaper at work.  After my first attempt, I was studying the wall so hard my co-worker came up behind me and startled me! 

Here was my first try:
