Every day is a precious gift...

This week's Stampin' Sisters in Christ challenge is to use the colour red and/or blue on your card/project, although it does not need to be a patriotic card. I love this quote from Charles H. Spurgeon and think it's perfect for today...my son's 14th birthday! I've airbrushed this Stampscapes scene with my Copic markers. Have a great day!

Supplies:-
Stamps - Stampscapes and SU's Refuge and Strength
PTI white cardstock
Brilliance ink
SU coloured cardstock
Bazzil textured cardstock
Copics
SU ribbon
Button
Embroidery thread
Foam dots
Felt flowers

You're My Cup Of Tea

I made today's card for this week's Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger. Here is this week's trigger photo...

...and here is my card...I really wanted the little mouse to be sitting in a tea cup but I don't own a tea cup stamp so I drew the tea cup onto designer paper, cut it out and used a craft knife to cut a slit for the mouse to slip in. Have a great day everyone!
