Work of Art

I received a FREE stamp set from Stampin' Up! when I attended the New Catalog Premier.  It is called Work of Art.  It i a fun set to play with.  It took me a little while, but once I got going with it, I couldn't stop!  Here are a couple of the cards I made with it.  The first two are stamped with Strawberry Slush and the third one uses Bold Brights Colors.

Saturday with the Grandbabies

I shared my birds, now I have to share my grand-babies!  I had them over to play on Saturday morning so Mama could get some things done.  So we played in the dirt, blew bubbles, ate popsickles and then played in the water.  Just love those two little munchkins! And I love to show them off.  Aren't they beautiful?  They both have gorgeous eyes!

 I had to spray them down after those Popsicles!!  But they loved it!

Birdwatching

I walked down to the tree house to check in on our little wren.  She built her nest inside the tree house.  The birds were singing a beautiful melody and so I just stayed up there listening and watching all the different birds in that small area. I had my camera and tried getting pictures of some of them.  It takes a lot of patience and luck to get good bird pictures!  I did get lucky with the Woodpecker.  I saw so many different birds Saturday morning.  I really enjoy bird watching!  Just wanted to share my birds with you.

 

Blendabilities, continued...

Here are three more cards I made using the Blendabilities!  If you want a relaxing activity, this is it.  Stamp an image and color and blend and shade until you have a beautiful work of art.  I just love playing with these markers!

Stampin' Up! Blendabilities

Did you love to color as a child?  Do you still love to color in coloring books with your children or grandchildren?  I do, so I love these Blendabilities!

This amazing new product is coming soon!  Blendababilites are alcohol based markers made for blending and shading.  They come three to a set.  We demonstrators got to preorder seven of the 13 color sets!  They will be in the NEW catalog, but won't actually be available to order until August.  : (  BUT...I am going to create a club for this product so that you can everything you need within 6 months!

I finally got to sit down and play with them yesterday.  I had so much fun! I want to share some of my creations with you. Look at how beautifully they blend the colors!  I have three more that will be on tomorrows post, so come back and check them out!
