A few cards I made just for fun!

This hot little number was for my dear hubby's 40th birthday this past week. He said it was the best card I ever gave him and was hoping the outfit was in his present (NOT). The image is a digital stamp from Victoria Case. I totally copied how she colored the image because it was just perfect! Check out her site, she has wonderful stuff!

I don't often use particular techniques on cards, but this one I had to try! It is the aluminum foil technique. I used Adirondack alcohol inks in eggplant, butterscotch, and ginger. The embossing folder is the one from Stampin Up that matches the Fifth Ave. Floral Stamp set. All the girls in my stamping club got this card today as their swap!
