The VSN is happening again this weekend on splitcoastsampers.com. I hope you come join the fun. It is called Go for Gold. You can find all the challenges HERE.
For this card, I reached for a playful cow image from Unity Stamp and colored it with Copics. After trimming the panel, I layered it over a piece of vintage farm‑themed designer paper that adds just the right rustic charm.
To finish the design, I added a bold birthday sentiment and scattered a few small hearts around the image, each accented with white highlights for a touch of extra shine.
JAN26VSNB - Made of Snow; ski slopes, snowballs, igloos, etc
For this card, I reached for a favorite Spellbinders die set and cut all the layers from colorful scraps to build this cheerful snowman scene. The background is a textured blue cardstock that creates a soft, wintry sky behind the stacked elements.
To finish the design, I added a Christmas sentiment from Reflections, which ties the whole scene together with a warm seasonal touch.
JAN26VSNC - Metallics: gold, silver, bronze
For this card, I gathered a mix of designer paper scraps and built the layout from those playful pieces. To elevate the design, I added touches of gold glitter paper and popped up both the gold heart and the congratulations sentiment on dimensionals for extra depth.
A few scattered black hearts finish the card, each accented with white highlights to give them a crisp, eye‑catching shine.




You have been busy Lisa, really like the first with the Calf and play on words, my favourite in the post, but the other three equally lovely in their own rights, the snow scene is such fun, clever use of patterns and colour on the thirds and the last makes for an excellent masculine card.

ReplyDeleteYou really have been herd at work! I love the cow and I think I must visit Unity. I do love some of their stamps and this is one I probably will add to my collection. The other cards with the gold, black and silver are really eye catchers and one totally stole my heart! Have a blessed day and thank you for visiting my blog. It means a great deal to me.
