Let's Toast

Good Morning Ladies,
Today is my day off so I plan to spend it making cards and doing laundry. I hope my creative kicks in.
The card for today is Let's Toast
The background on this card was created using glossy card stock. I took two colors of andirondak ink and dragged them across the card stock. Then a make-up sponge was used to blend the colors in. The fire and marshmallows on the sticks are die cut from a MFT and the sentiment is from a matching stamp set also from MFT. The fairies are from Lavina.
Happy Scraps,
Mrs. Swandog

Smore Holiday

Good Morning Ladies,
I am off to work this morning and then off to the RV show in Elkhart. You know just to look around.
The card for today is Smore Holiday
 I know it's early for a holiday card, but when you make the cards you have to start early. This card was created using a the Holiday Smore set by Inky Antics. The smores and the hot coco cup were stamped on white card stock and watercolored. They were then hand cut. Snowflake sequins were added to the mug and randomly around the card front.
 The smores were popped up with pop tape.
The inside sentiment is from the same set.
Happy Scraps,
Mrs. Swandog
