T Stands For Two Topics

"Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honor all the day." Ps. 71:8

Good Afternoon!  It is lovely here today; we even had the house opened up.  It is a wonderful second day of Summer.  Yesterday, and last week with heat indexes sometimes in the hundreds, today is a welcome change!  We even got a little rain.  I don't think it is going to last long, though.

First today, I will show you some VSN (Virtual Stamp Night) cards I did over the week-end.  Our theme this time on Splitoaststampers is Fantasy Worlds.  Some of the challenges were:  Floral Fantasy, Shimmery Wings, Fantasy Island, Narnia, Futuristic.  Here are a few cards I made.  A couple have already been sent.

We were challenged to have shimmery wings on our cards, could have been dragonfly, butterfly or I chose Angel wings. I die cut them out of glitter paper.

This was a fun challenge to make a futuristic card from when we were born.  They never heard of internet or laptops or email when I was born.  This is a C Designs image, and sentiment.  I colored with Copics, fussy cut her and put her on a die cut oval then on Cuttlebug Divine Design Embossed pane.  Then I added washi tape and the sentiment on a punched Large lable, & word window, both SU! punches.

This was our floral challenge.  I just happened to have this printed paper on my desk, so distressed it and mounted on the Blackberry Bliss and added the punched heart.

This is a gel print background that I had made with a stencil.  I die cut a fairy and wings & the sentiment, then added glitter and gold thread.

Our fantasy island card.  The background was done to be like Faux Tearing technique.  I tore paper and then sponged over it to make the scene.  Makes a flatter card to mail.

This was inspired by the Narnia Challenge.  I decided that this Hampton Art Graphic 45 image was perfect to depict the children reading the Chronicles of Narnia.  I stamped the image and background with the new oxide color Salvaged Patina.  I stamped the background with a dictionary page stamp.

Secondly, I have to post this for our hostess Elizabeth of our TSFT over at Altered Book Lover.  I got lost again, like when I found the pianos, but this time I found a little memorial garden.  It is in front of the Bob Dole VA Hospital.  I was looking for the Tag office. LOL  I find the most fun things when I get lost.  I am just like my mom.  We all used to love going somewhere with her, because we always got to go somewhere other than where we were supposed to be going. LOL Here are photos of the memorial garden.  It was difficult to get photos without people in them.

I hope you liked my VSN cards and my walk through the little garden.  Did you see my drink reference?  If you want to visit our hostess and our other  TSFT bloggers click on the link above, and if you want to take part in the VSN challenges, you can click on that link above, also.

Hope you are having a nice day.  Thanks for stopping by.
