Bright....

...colors are what I seem to need lately!  I mean, seriously, I gravitate to them like they are chocolate.  Probably because  it is cold, snowy and really, quite gray here in Wisconsin.   I needed to make a get well card for a friend (actually, I need to make 4 of them....yikes!) and also a cute little valentine card for my lunch buddy.  So, I turned to some fabby, patterned paper and went to town.  I used Whipper Snapper Design Stamps again today and really enjoyed the fun of coloring them.  The first card I will also enter into the Mojo Monday Challenge # 228 


I adore this little WSD duck....and have popped up the umbrella onto dots.  You can't tell from the photo but his beak and feet are glossy-ed up and look adorable in person.  




Such a (hopefully) cheery little get well card!  For my second card I also went WSD with a cute image that I thought was perfect for my little kindergartner lunch pal!  The flowers and heart are also glittered with pen as she LOVES sparkles!  And, finally, the eyes are glossy-ed up and really POP in real life!



Thank you for stopping by....it has been sorta crazy here lately...I hope to be able to post a bit about what is happening around my house either later today or tomorrow...but I really apologize for not getting to more of my favorite blogs ;-(

Take care and
Be well,
Sheila

    Adorable cards, Sheila! I just know that little gal loved hers. And, I truly understand when blogging takes a back seat. My cardmaking time is very sporadic and when I do get a chance to post it takes a LONG time to catch up with the blogs I follow. But, I love doing so when I can. Love seeing what others do; so much talent out there!! Your colorful and happy cards alwasy bring a smile to my face.
