MDS BABY CARD

WOW!  It has been a really long time since I have blogged.  I was trying to assist a friend of mine in coming up with a baby card.  So, I thought I would share.  I created this on MDS, but the embelishments are ones that I have downloaded and can not remember which site I got them from.  I hope you enjoy! The card shows the front image and the inside image. Please leave me a note and let me know what you think.

MOTHERS DAY

I made a mothers day card for a friend of mine to send to her mom. 

I cased this card from ZGRANDMA on SCS. 

 I really liked how it turned out and hope that her mom loves it just as much I do. 

I was having a hard time with the paper flowers, so I used some of my prima flowers I had.

All supplies used are from Stampin Up unless noted.

Paper: very vanilla, yellow, glossy

Ink: gold/brown spray mist, melon mambo, yoyo yellow, only orange, glorious green

Misc: ribbon (my stash), flowers (prima), fire rhinestone brad, hodgepodge hardware

I misted the glossy cardstock with the gold/brown mist and set it aside to dry for a few minutes.

Then I used a sponge, dipped into my ink pads and swished and swiped it on the

glossy cardstock in random patterns.

COLOR WITH A BLUR

I played with a same b/w technique adding color back in and I also blurred the background and the glass in the front. This is my son and my 2 nephews.  They are all boy and definately the BOO CREW!

FLOWER POWER

I wanted to play again with changing a color photo to black & white and then bringing back a touch of color.  Again I used the Corel  Draw program.

This time I used a picture that my sister-in-law took.  I hope you enjoy this one. 

Praise god and Happy Easter to everyone.

Original photo that is gorgeous to begin with.

The after effect with just the yellow.

COREL PAINTSHOP PHOTO PRO X3

I learned something new with my Corel program.  I have had it for a while and just keep learning a little bit and then I use it and then I go back to learn some more.  Today I learned how to take a color photo, change it to black and white and then add a touch of color back in.  I found a picture on a blog that I really liked for a kitchen and what I want my kitchen to look like. I hope you enjoy this and if you are looking for a great photo editing software, I would so suggest this program.

I had 2 birthday cards that I was asked to make.

"Happy Birthday You Sassy Thang".

Happy Easter

I wanted to try the technique called Bum pain background found on the videos on My Digital Studio.  I was just playing around and wanted to try the circle instead of the square as I wanted hills.  So I was just going through the downloads and decided on a few from my Easter section.  I hope you enjoy!
