Morsels Class

Hi All, The following 5 cards are cards that I did in a class I attended last night they are all using the morsel stamps by See D's I enjoyed doing the class and had some fun learning about these little stamps.

Trying out a technique I've not done in a while.

This is a card that I've done using the faux leather technique.

Items used
masking tape
various inks
snaps
cowboy hat
bandana
Letter Stickers

This is another 3d card I made recently for a swap that I'm in the theme was pink white and mint green combo swap.
So I used this pink orchid to do as the 3d. I embossed a border in white around it and put it on vellum and then mounted it all on the green and then mounted it on another pink.

Items used:
3d orchid print
white, pink and mint card stock
silicone glue
other adhesive
brass stencil by Matti
embossing tool.

Spring is around the corner I hope

This card was inspired by the thought of spring is around the corner. The flower bouquet is a 3d image, cut into 5 parts and layered. I put it on mint green and embossed a frame around it and then mounted it on navy blue to match the frame around the flowers.


Materials used:
Daffodil bouquet picture
mint and navy card stock
silicone
brass stencil for embossing
embossing tool.

Another Easter Card

This card is made using another technique called papuela, a form of paper weaving. Slits are cut into the card and then strips of paper are woven through the slits. The rabbit is another one of the images found on the Pergamano parchment easter sheet, again it was embossed and glued on with silicone.

Hi

Well I'm going back to work on Monday and I'm very happy about that. This has been a long road to recovery, but I believe I've made it. Anyway I've been doing a few cards in the past week. Mainly easter cards. So I'll show them here.

Welcome to my blog. My name is Cindy van Oorschot and I live in Aurora, Ontario Canada.
I've been into card making for the past 10 years and I plan on using this blog to share my creations with you on card making and my other hobbies which are knitting, ceramics and any other creative thing that comes to mind.

I will also share a bit of insight into me and my life and what's happening in my life.

I work as a security supervisor at a condominium and do my cards and other creative things in my spare time. I'm off work right now on health leave as I've just been through surgery and radiation treatments for breast cancer. It's been a journey to say the least, one that I don't wish on anyone, but I've had my husband Bill, and some very good friends around to support me.

I belong to a couple of groups which I trade and share my love for card making with.

Anyway enough about me, and on with the creativity.
Thanks again for dropping by.
Cindy
