For my card for the Cox Family, 
I used two fun sets, Sketchy Cities America 2 from Altenew and Foxy Friend from SugarPea Designs.  I live just about 40 miles from this city of Seattle, so this is one of my favorite stamps.  I thought it would translate to Thinking Of You From Seattle Wa.  I love to make CAS cards and love rainbow colors so I combined them and only colored the Wheel.

This card is also for Simon Says Stamp's

YOU are AMAZING

Amazing Friend. 
This card came about because of a random act of kindness.
The other day my friends Kimberly and Toni were telling me about Hammermill Frog 80# cardstock for running through the printer for using with digis and Toni also uses it for coloring, as it costs about 75% less than Neenah Solar White 80# I currently use.  Toni offered to send me some to try...........I was expecting a small sample not an entire ream that came in the mail. How nice was that?! So thank you Toni, I am using it and so far, loving it. I have not tried coloring with my Copics on it other than the above blending.

So to thank Toni I made this card.
I am having a blast playing with one of my Christmas presents, this awesome stamp from Altenew called Sketchy Cities America 2 .  When I saw the SSSWChallenge ombre, I used the Graduated Background technique and colored three city scenes, cut them out and layered them for a mail friendly card.  Thank you Toni, you made not only my day but my entire week. Mwah.

Seattle from Santa

Playing with one of my stocking goodies from Santa. 
I fell in love with this stamp set when I first saw it and Yay Santa brought it to me.
What a lucky girl I am.  So this is my first time playing with it.  I wanted to color in the wheel to reflect the fun of a ride and have it be the focal point. My husband and I rode the wheel last summer and it was a lovely summer day.

I am also playing in Simon Says Stamp
