These little kitties love being cut out from my ScanNCut2 – such fun! Even more fun is that the lovely ladies of Cocoa Daisy invited me to play along this month as a guest! This card is just the first of several- and over on my YouTube channel (link) you can see the how-to video for this. I’m very pleased with the results – but right meow I’ve gotta get back to the studio!
Don’t forget birthdays is always a goal of mine… and I’m the worst. I’ve been known to forget my own! Ah well, at least I can craft up some cuteness for a belated gift.

I created this skull card a while back on Periscope (periscope.tv/craftwithmay is where you can find me) and am finally getting around to sharing it! I used all kinds of color mediums from distress spray to watercolor and had a whole lot of fun with this old stamped image. Yes, the edges are torn out of the pad of watercolor paper, and yes I love a raggedy edge card!
My challenge to myself was to be “more masculine” and I’m happy with how it came out. As I said earlier this week making time for creative play is a good thing… I’m glad I did on this busy day to create this card.
Have very happy and crafty weekend!
This reindeer and the swirly lovely be merry sentiment stamps are from Lawn Fawn. (affiliate links) Ellen Hutson and Simon Says Stamp both carry the Lawn Fawn line – I strongly recommend checking out their most recent release because it has great stuff! Both of these stamp sets I used I can’t get enough of.

Check it out – Carved Pumpkin in the house! I created a video (link to YouTube) to show you some coloring fun and play with this newest color. I simply framed up the image onto kraft cardstock for my card – got to love simplicity for such a great image!
The blueprint stamp is from Tim Holtz as well – one of my favorites!
