Tokyo Gardens Geisha

When I saw this beautiful Geisha image at SheepSkiDesigns,
I got an idea, what I just HAD to test right away.


Paper piecing with Gecko Galz Tokyo Garden papers.
Background paper is from the same set.

For the little boys

and really like these two backgrounds I came up with.


Sentiment is from Unity Stamps, little boy stamp
from Carabelle. Stars are made by using stencil and DO ink.

Sweet Stampin' - Special man day

For a second card I used stamps from 
unity stamps and little sparkling embossing powder


and this card I'd like to enter to:

Smackin'

I have a summer flu thinky going on
and between naps I watched some 
crafting tutorials from YouTube.
Happened to see this "Smackin' Acetate"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43ft6Y-81gc&t=493s
and wanted to try it with my Zig markers.

This was my first try,
I think I used color too wide ...
live an learn ... I also colored my 
stamp (Katzelkraft)  with Zig markers. 


Didn't add a sentiment, thought it would
steal the attention from the fish.
Just layered on black cardstock.

B-day cards with a pipe

I was asked to make a B-day card for a
50 years old man - with a pipe in the card.

Well, don't really have any images / or papers
with pipes, but I did find 3D pictures.
I hope these will do...

Hey there

And third (and last for this month) card 
for Gecko Galz "Retro Summer" challenge.


Using sunny image from "Let's make Lemonaid" set.

sentiment is made from stickers.

I'd also like to enter to these challenges:

So it's fun to just print and make; 
when you don't have much time but you are feeling so crafty, LOL)

Sunflowers

Another card using my brown cardbases and
to meet Gecko Galz "Retro Summer" challenge.


Sunflower is from Gecko Galz June's freebie sheet.
Same flower 3 times, I just resized it and layered it.
Then some backing paper (love to recycle) and 3
cute wooden chicken. Didn't add any sentiment:
it's good to have some "Anything goes" cards, :=)

Sunny Summerdays

Gecko Galz theme for the June blog challenge is
Retro Summer. I printed this paper from
Tokyo Gardens paper set and hope it looks
retro enough to meet the challenge theme.


I used brown card base (something I found from a sale)
made some flowers using my bunchies (kinda "found" them after a long while) 
and micro peans and stamped the sentiment on a vellum, 
sentiment says: sunny summer days 

I'd like to enter some more challenges:
Aud sentiments - AG + sentiment
