Happy 98th Birthday

Over at Splitcoast, we have a challenge , Teapot Tuesday, to make a card for people in need, or sometimes, for those who are celebrating.  
 We are making Birthday cards for 'Aunt Betty' who is celebrating her 98th Birthday!  She was just able to get back to country living for this big birthday, so we made a 'country' themed card. 

 
This image is owned by my friend Sharon, who I visited last year in February.
The stamp is made by Stamp A Mania. I used Distress inks and made the sky, then took Copics and colored in the barn, and the foreground- which is mostly Distress ink blending as well. The sentiment is a digital image. 
 I love this calm scene- with a beautiful sky in the view.  I hope Aunt Betty loves the serenity of the scene. 

Challenges: TBA

Alpha A=Accessories

 I am in a challenge group at Splitcoaststampers.com called the Alpha challenge.  We are in season 23, and the first prompt is Accessories.  Think Antiques. 

 


   I have a good friend that dances as does her husband.  I thought this set was perfect for them and bought it to make her a Birthday card. 

 The stamp set is called Sock Hop by Catherine Pooler.  

I used distress inks on the background, added a musical notes stencil then added the die cuts over that.  The sentiment is a digital image. 

Thanks for stopping by!
