That got your attention didn’t it!
They are all cards I made this week AND our anniversary!
Yup! 38 years of wedded bliss… whew!
That’s a long time to put with me!

Let’s look at the fish first.
This is one of the new sets released this week from Mark’s Finest Papers, Fish You Were Here.
The scene is done on glossy paper with the
Speckled Technique <--- click here to see how.
It’s a great technique for water. The fish are colored with Copics.

Next, Daffodils! I just love them!! Mine are just starting to push their way up through the earth…maybe an inch or two high.
Ahh, I can’t wait to bring in a big bouquet for my dining room table!
This was the sketch on Splitcoast this week. I really enjoyed it, simple yet different! Our Daily Bread designs March release, Daffodil Corner, verse from Daffodil Tag set, stamped frame from Eternity and our matching custom die, Labels One.
The DP is Prima Sparkling Spring, newly released too! It’s so yummy!
The Daffodils are colored with Copics, cut apart and popped up over the label. Two Martha Stewart border punches were used on the narrow strips.

This adorable little guy is also a new release from Angels Landing, Chipmunk and Vinca 1, a digital image. The Ways To Use It challenge on Splitcoast yesterday was to use felt in some way. I’ve had these felt coasters from Michaels forever! So, with my trusty craft knife and some fussy cutting, I opened up the image to expose the coaster.
He’s colored with Copics and some Sakura white gel pen for accents. The card measures 4.25 x 4.25.

Hope your day is wonderful!
Thanks for stopping!!
