Verve Visual Triple Time Stamping for OWH

I have one more card ready for the Operation Write Home Virtual Card Making Party!

This card is for challenge #4 coming from Donna Inks blog, the challenge is to use Triple Time Stamping.

Donna shows in nice detail how to do the technique.  I've seen these cards before but hadn't made an attempt to make any yet - what fun I was missing!  It took me longer to figure out what stamps I'd like to use than it did to make the card...  

The stamps I used are two rubber stamps made by Inkadinkado that I've had for several years now and a new cling stamp from Verve Visual called Grace.  I don't "stamp" as much as I used to, I was hoping my neglected ink pads still had ink enough to work for me and they did.  I used Palette Jardin Moss & Raw Sienna as well as Momento Rich Cocoa.  My paper is Neenah Solar White & Stampin' Up! Chocolate Chip.

I hope you are enjoying your weekend.  It's business as usual at our house, husband working, kids out of school & Mom and Kids working on laundry.  I'm getting a little "me time" to play in the Operation Write Home Virtual Card Making Party challenges so I'm content.

I think it's time to clean up my mess for awhile now...

Inkadinkado Angels

I've had my eye on this stamp set by Inkadinkado at my friend Linda's Sugar Shack in Lake Havasu for several months now and finally gave in and bought it.

I've made two cards with it so far that I'll show you today.

I really like the swirly flowing yet simplicity of the images.  They might just be good for a Copic coloring class, who knows?

For my first card I wanted to try Blues in the Copic markers and for my second card I used Blue Greens.

I like them both but I'm more inclined toward the Blue Greens because that's my favorite Copic color family.  I also like the wings more on the second card, just a hint of color. 

I also looked through my digital sentiments and found several nice sentiments that would go with the angels.

Inkadinkado Special Bird

I couldn't leave you today with just informational blog posts I had to share a card too!  

I've been playing with Inkadinkado mini sets that I bought at Sugar Shack in Lake Havasu.  This one is called Special Bird and I've colored it with Copic markers and framed it with a Martha Stewart punch around the page punch set.  I'm always amazed at Copic markers, I love the way the bird came out.
