A Day for Daisies: #36 Love and Hugs

Woo Hoo!  I won the A Day for Daisies challenge last week, so I thought I'd play again:)

On a roll yesterday-Valentine's!  Lord knows, I love to make cards, but I am simply terrible about sending them.  I am trying to get better about this. 

You may recall, if you read my posts, that I spent the day with artist, Mari O'Dell last week.  I did little but salivate over her amazing studio and gorgeous creations, but I did pick up a few simple, little tricks.  The bottom two cards, inspired by Mari-a few folds and a cut.  I like it!  

Another idea-Mari saves all her magazines.  She cuts out things that inspire her (her self-made smash journals are STUNNING!) and then uses them for work mats.  So, for example, after cutting out my bunny (okay, Tammy's bunny!), I turned him over and covered him with glue, got it all over a magazine page, then simply turn the page for a clean work mat.  Once I've hit every page, in the recycle bin it goes!  Smart, huh?!

The first card is my fav.  I used MME DP-love it, colored with Copics, used a few stickers from my stash, a rubber stamp sentiment, and twine!  The next two, K&Co DP, a Pebbles (?) embellishment and K&Co embellishments, and of course, my beloved Copics!
