Hello Friends, How are you? Any plans for a crafty weekend? I hope everyone is safe and cozy with all this crazy weather.
On another note I have a feeling you have seen these awesome stamps from Waffle Flower? I am CRAZY for the entire collection… it’s called Enveloper and if you ask me these stamps demand to be front and center on a card NOT the envelope lol … but, that would be nice too. 🙂
Is it silly to think these were created with me in mind? The “Little Birdie” set is screaming for dots and more dots. I used my trusty white gel pen and my uber fine tip maker to add black dots on the white dots…. and lots of other fun details. To finish off the card I used this stencil (cause it was still on my table) and some of Lucy’s sequins. These label sentiments always save the day when I am debating what sentiment stamp to use.
This one has the same stencil and all the details. I didn’t want my “Scripty Hugs” to just float on the card so I put some washi tape on card stock then cut it like a banner flag.
Coloring twine with a marker… is always a must and then I tied it around the letter “g” . Sooo fun. That’s it for today …Â Have an awesome weekend and thanks for stopping in. Hugs, Kathy
P.S. I will post the 30 day coloring challenge details soon. Same stuff but, a good reminder 🙂

Very pretty Kathy! You crack me up with your dots & more dots!!
Joyce Casaldi says
I love your dots!
I only plan to play along with the PTI anniversary this weekend.
And unfortunately not do much else because I caught the bug. Sore throats and headache is just calling for me to crawl back into bed.

I love what you’ve done with these stamp sets and your dots! I think they deserve to be card fronts too. I love the artwork! There’s cats coming out soon in this style. I bet they will hot hot hot!

These cards are great. As far as crafting plans this weekend…I do have a birthday card to make, but with the predicted 70+ degree temperatures forecast here in Missouri, I plan to spend most of the weekend outdoors in this “simulated” spring! Hey, Jenifer McGuire mentioned you in her video yesterday…I missed that technique when you shared it, apparently, but I do like the idea of highlighting stamps with white. I’m not going to “copy” you, but I do plan on borrowing your technique very soon. Thanks for sharing!

Pretty cards–and the stamps sets are exactly your style–I’m thinking maybe you did design these!

Yep! I am pretty sure they had you in mind when they created these! I agree that they are screaming for dots and lines and circles and triangles too! Must add them to my stash soon! TFS!

Such beautiful cards Kathy as ever! Love the gel pen dots, polka dots and washi, a great reminder of what CAN be used!
We are just cleaning up from one Nor’easter and preparing for the next! YAY! ( I hate winter BUT…my hubby has to work it so that means I am home alone during the storm! Which translates in to MY crafty time…UN-INTERRUPTED! LOL) Have a great weekend!

Billie A says
Both cards are beautiful and you bring them to life. I love the twine around the G in the Hugs. Great idea and cool look. Always fun to see you cards and I have been trying to use the white gel pen on my cards.. I feel like I need help on where to add them.. But I am trying and think of you on what you would do.. You’re an inspiration.. Thanks

I love the Envlopers from Waffle Flower and I don’t have one yet. I love what you did with these affixing them on cards with your “signature work” of famous DOTS! LOVE!!!
Beautiful displays of art! Thanks, Kathy!

These are gorgeous! Waffle Flower has released these unique designs and I love them! Your colouring is amazing, as always, and I love the stencilled background. I can see I need to play with my stencils more often!
