Fairy Flutter

 It's a "Birthday" challenge at Art Impressions this week.  Who doesn't love making, giving and especially receiving Birthday cards?  It's a present in and of itself!  I love to see the creativeness of others so I'm looking forward to viewing all the entries in this challenge.  Always inspiring!

  My card this week features the Fairy Flutter stamp set from Art Impressions.  Unfortunately, she is discontinued, but she is a very used stamp set at my house.  I love interactive cards and this one has the wings fly up and down when you pull the tab.  Sooooo darn cute and fun!


  The sentiment is included with this set (as well as the fairy die) and it's perfect especially for those of us who wish to be 29 again.  Such a great age!  I've been 29 for MANY years.  πŸ˜‰

  Hope you enjoy.  Have a great Memorial Day weekend!

Ride the Wave

 The Art Impressions challenge for this week is "Under the Sea".  I love the new critter cubbie release sets (Under the Sea and The Hen House) but I haven't purchased them yet.  So, for the challenge, I used the 2020 Art Impressions freebie stamps.  Love love love the puffer fish and the crab.  Well, actually, I love them all but these two are my favorites.  I also used the Hero Arts wave background die to make the ocean scene.  The sea creatures tuck right into the die openings.


  I colored the images with copic markers and then fussy cut them out.  Art Impressions make their images so easy to fussy cut and when you pop them up with foam tape, they just come alive.  

  Hope we all get to go ride the waves this summer.  Sooooo looking forward to some sun and fun!

Barn Dance

This week's challenge at Art Impressions is Barn Dance.   I used an old Art Impressions stamp called Wallowing Pig along with a sentiment from the current Be Happy Laugh Lines (#5279) stamp set.  I thought this saying was perfect for this image.  There are so many great sayings in that set!


I love Barn dances and this image is a perfect reflection of me the day after. 😁  I have way TOO much fun but I sure pay for it the next day.  I'm tuckered out and my legs do not want to hold me up. πŸ˜€

Isn't this just the cutest stamp?  Kind of says it all, doesn't it?
