My Jeanne inspired blog post...

 All these cards were done either with Jeanne OR with Jeanne's stuff... :)
 
Jeanne came to my house for a play date in mid-July.  She brought lots of her "stuff" for us to play with.  I cut several of her Simon Says Stamp Daisy dies for future cards.  We played with her BRUSHO Color Burst and made backgrounds.  The card on the left was put together AFTER Jeanne went home.  I cut down the backgrounds we made and did some faux stitching around the edges.  She accidently left a box of Christmas stamps behind so I found a sentiment in there that would work... then I sent the card to her. 
 
The card on the right was part of yesterday's endeavor...
 
While visiting at her house this week, we did some Copic coloring together.  I colored three of the APPLE HARVEST stamp by Deep Red then we cut the images on her Scan 'n Cut.  OMG!!!  I'm SOOOO sold on the Scan 'n Cut!  Although it seems it took me HOURS yesterday to find all the right papers for this from my stash, I was quite happy with the result.  The sentiment is again, from that box of Christmas stamps she left behind when visiting me...

Finally, we followed an Art Impressions video to color this.  Using the AI Clay Pot and my Marvy markers, I colored two of these images at her house.  Once home, I realized that I HAVE this set from a class I took last year with Sandy Allnock up in Massachusetts.  I don't know why I haven't used it since that class because this was so fun and relaxing to do.
 
So, there you have it... my Jeanne inspired cards!  :)

  1. So nice to have a crafty friend to play with. I love those daisies. Wow! I like the dies you used to go around the basket of apples and the dies you used on the clay pot card. Very nice display and wonderful set of cards.

    1. Crafting with friends is indeed a great thing. I thoroughly enjoyed the time you and I did that in Ohio. The two dies on the clay pot are from a new die set I got from Sugar Pea Designs. I too, really like them... :)

  2. Hi Cindy! These all look so fabulous! I love the paper you chose for the basket of apples, nice an "earthy." The daisy cards turned out great, and I was thrilled to get one in the mail! The AI water color was fun, I totally agree. I like how you stamped the sentiment half way over on the pot. Looks super nice in that spot. And, I like the brown and reds together. Awesome Sause! As you would say. Hey, where's the birthday cards??? LOL Hiding them for next time I guess! See you soon. Expo here we come!

  4. All just gawjuss! It's so much fun creating with friends! Wish I could come too. :) I had a friend that sent me a card she made a background with using Brushos and I've wanted to try that. I went to Blick Art and looked for them, but they only have them on line and I haven't ordered any on line yet. I'll let you know if I actually get any and do some. Of course, you will receive one. Your Thank You card on the bottom is amazing.
