Stampin' up a storm!

I was home alone today so thought I'd take advantage of it. While I was catching up on laundry from the cruise, I decided to stamp a little...afterall, I have to wait for the clothes to get out of the dryer before I can put a new load in, so I didn't want to 'waste' time waiting around! ;)

The first card is made using an image I received in an image swap on SCS. The image is "Daisy" from Sugar Nellies. She's just so sweet. The Thinking of You is from Sherrod Studio's Gracie set. All papers are SU (not sure what the white CS is since I didn't stamp the image). Daisy is colored using Copics. Embellishments include Prima Flowers, Glitter Adornments by My Favorite Things and black organdy ribbon from Michael's. This is a simple card but I think it turned out nice.
My second card of the day is made using Bombshell Stamps' Bombshell Angel. Boy wish I were built like that! Again, all papers are SU- Riding Hood red, Certainly Celery, Basic Black and Bella Rosa DSP- except for the white which is GP110. The image is stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Copics. I sponged around the edges using Riding Hood Red. The Bella Rosa panel is embossed in the Cuttlebug using the Dotted Swiss embossing folder. I used Prima Flowers and Glitter Adornments from My Favorite Things on this card as well, along with self-stick red half-beads. I love this card!

My last card of the day (so far!) is a Get Well card for Ricky. Ricky is the son of a teacher at my school. Ricky had surgery on June 14th and, due to complications, is still in the hospital. His mom hasn't left his side the entire time that he's been there. We decided at school to do a card shower for Ricky. I think he'll really enjoy getting lots of "happy mail"! This card also used an image from the image swap. This image is from Whipper Snapper. All papers are SU except for the white which is GP110. I colored the image using my Copics and then doodled around the edge using my SU Basic Black marker (fine-tip end). This is such a sweet image. Ribbons are from Michael's. I attached self-stick red half-beads to each corner and popped the image up on dimensionals. I hope Ricky likes it and I hope he's home from the hospital soon!! Now I think I'll need to make his mom a 'hang in there" type card...

Okay, guess I'd better get back to the laundry and maybe do some cleaning...well, maybe not... :) I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable 4th of July!!
