A few cards I've made

 I was a busy gal this weekend.  I made a few cards...LOL

This first card was made using the sketch from Retro Rubber Challenge Blog.  I kept this monochromatic in purples.  I used the CTMH Skylark Stencil with CTMH Royal Ink.  The sentiment and little mouse are from the Jan 2022 SOM Sweet Little Things stamp set.


This card will be entered into the following Challenge

This next card was made using the You're The CTMH G.O.A.T Stamp set, some glitter paper, some loose sequins and some gems.  I framed the image and sentiment with some foil paper.

This shaker card was fun to make.  I used the same Skylark Stencil and Royal ink.  The the "outside" I brushed some CTMH colors - Bluebird, Pixie, Lemonade and Royal for the sky, then stamped the trees from the Botanical Shadows stamp set over the sky "scene".  The skunk, dragonfly and sentiment are from the Little Stinkers stamp set.  I used some loose sequins inside the shaker portion.

This last card was made using a new to me technique with saran wrap.  I followed this video.  I used CTMH ink colors Lemonade, Pixie and Bluebird.  I added some gold twine around the strip with the sentiment.  The sentiment and unicorn are from the CTMH stamp set called Unicorn Dreams.
