Four for Today

Some simple cards from the last several months that I haven't shared yet.

The image on this first one is from a puzzle box.  I almost threw it away - gasp!!!  But saved it in the nick of time and used the image, cut with a Spellbinders die, for a birthday card.  


A Wendy Vecchi Studio 490 Art Part with coordinating stamp make the fish on this card.  I think I used Distress Stains to color the fish starting with the white.  The background is kraft resist paper inked and then stamped with a couple different Stamp Zia seaweed images.


The drum set, stamped and embossed with black, is from I Brake For Stamps.  It's stamped on a piece "marbled" paper created with spray paint ages ago.  I did an online class with the technique and the link is HERE.   Be sure and click on each picture along the left side starting at the top and you will find directions with the pictures.  The black and white marbled piece on this card is also the same technique.  Bottom background piece is embossed in a folder and sponged with ink around the edges.


This card uses printed paper, a scripture stamp from Our Daily Bread Designs, and a strip of a butterfly border punch.  I used a Tombow marker inside the punched butterflies to help them stand out from the background.
