Well, it's one stamped image (the tree) and one stamped sentiment on a white cardstock, coloured using Promarkers. I actually stamped the image twice, once on a card and the other on a white cardstock. That was coloured in using my Promarkers and the images were slowly and laboriously cut it and adhered to the card using foam dots. This card will form part of my Xmassy cards. Oh and stamped image and sentiment is from Unity June KOTM set.

Left me puzzling a little but eventually came up with this:

Patterned papers by Cosmo Cricket Early Bird collection (gosh, luv them to bits!) Again, stamped images by Unity June KOTM set. Don't exactly have love in the sentiment but it's there in the card!

The colours: green, yellow, orange, brown, and aqua. Use these colors in your card....and make it a feminine card! Not sure if my card is considered feminine enough but the background sure is:
Patterned paper by SEI Dill Blossom . Stamped image and sentiment by Unity.
Patterned paper by Basic Grey Lime Rickey and Crate Paper Mia collections. Stamped images by Unity.
Patterned paper by WRMK Tiffany collection (the entire paper collection is simply delish. I had use them for a Disney mini album).

Bingo image by Invoke Arts stamp (it was a leftover from another project).
Have to say, it took me ages to come up with a card. I was kinda stuck for a while then I realised that I needed to do a Father's Day card so here's my take on it:
Inside reads 'Happy Father's Day'. I rotated the sketch to suit the design of my card. Patterned paper from Scarlet Lime exclusive paper (found in Nov 07 kit... sheesh that long! LOL!) Stamped image by Unity and coloured using Promarkers.
This is a K&Co Flippery charm bracelet kit. All I did was to personalise it to my liking by filling it with photos and adding charms to it. The charms were made from shrink plastic. They were stamped using Unity and Basic Grey stamps, coloured using Promarkers and then shrank.
Patterned paper by Scribble Scrabble Felicity collection. Where you have grass, you usually have trees hence, the image of tree and grass growing beneath.

Feautures new MME papers, Bazzill stitch templates, bag of buttons etc. Kit was lovely and no wonder it sold out quick!

The requirement calls for simplicity so I added a die-cut journaling sheet in the middle and stamped the sentiment. Added a stamped hot air balloon (image by Unity) and viola, it's done. Inside the card reads 'Happy Anniversary'.

Just before boarding
This photo (& below) came from the school blog. They set up one to show the kids' activities for the day. There he is in the red t-shirt. They were involved in animal orienteering.
In the field playing games.
I turned to my trusty Chatterbox papers (of yesteryears). Found a couple of coloured patterned papers that matched. Stamped image & sentiment from Unity stamps.
The first thing that strike me was the colour so I went for the green and black hues.
A combination of both produced this:
Patterned paper by Scarlet Lime exclusive papers found in Sep 08 kit. I broke the golden rule and used a brand new sheet to do this card (my aim of doing cards is to use up scraps from scrapbooking not vice versa!). However, the paper fit the theme perfectly. The quote and dragonfly came from Unity stamps.
Went for an Xmassy themed card as I think I need to make a start on it. Patterned papers by Daisy Bucket Playlist collection and Jillibean Minestrone collection. Stamped image by Paperbag Studios. Sentiment by Purple Onion Designs.
Patterned paper from Tapestry by CR Gibson Lavender & Lace collection. Mona Lisa image by Lost Coast, 'don't forget me' image by Paper Artsy and phone image by Unity.
