Happy Father's Day

 The WT636 challenge - Hardware & Metal Accents

To create this image I applied the ink to the stamp with a marker for the green, brown and black. Then stamped it on the CS. Filled in the colors with copics once the image was stamped.

Stamped the wheat and cut to put behind the tractor. finished off with some gear accents that are die cut from a tomato paste tube that Sabrina sent me in a Teapot Tuesday exchange. They really die cut beautifully and looked great on this card.

This is another of the cards my aunt asked me to create for my uncle for next year. They live on a farm so this image is perfect for him.


Copics used: G17 & E33

Happy Father's Day

Grandma's Flowers

The IC597 challenge - The wonderful Etsy site Create the Cut is our inspiration today. I found this beautiful blue and white floral. I am always drawn to blue and white and that image just pulled me in today. I don't water color yet on my cards (maybe some day I will get there). Stamped the Heartfelt Creations flowers and colored in blues and colored the leaves in greens. Stamped the sentiment and die cut it with a Spellbinders banner. Left the banner in the die cut and shaded it with blue to pick up from the flowers. Put the banner on Dimensionals and finished off with some sequins and liquid pearls in the center of the flowers and added some score lines around the card. This is headed to my grandma for Mother's day. We are taking her out to lunch today and I think she will just love putting this on her shelf in her room. Happy Mother's day to all the wonderful moms.

Nativity

The FS534 challenge - Donna3D has a stunning gallery to share with us. I found this amazing Card

CCC17JUN - religious theme

I love the layout of the card and kept with a very similar layout using an oval die cut rather than tearing the edge.

The wood was done with an EF and adding brown to the inside. Colored the image with copics and added a gem to the inside of the star. The image is popped on dimensionals. The edge of the image I used a pin to punch the holes.

Happy Anniversary

Today's FS535 Challenge - JustCallMeNana is our Featured Stamper. She has a stunning gallery. I found this beauty: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...&ppuser=243673.  My dear sweet friend asked me for an anniversary card for his wife. They are celebrating their 20 year anniversary. I loved the lacy edge on Lynda's card and the colors. I die cut two lacy layers with Gina Marie dies. Then I used the Heartfelt Creations heart and die cut the white and purple heart layers. I put the banner in the center of the heart rather than the bottom as the FS had and moved the flowers to the bottom. I finished the flowers off with stickles and a ribbon.

Happy Anniversary

For the IC596 challenge - Book Art

Heartfelt Creations sells wonderful fold out card bases. I used one of their bases to do my book art. 

Used several DPs for the 8 different pages on the fold out card trimming and using the HFC lacy edge die cut to add some fun cuts. Stamped the wonderful Sunflower pail image and colored with copics and added some stickles. The image and oval are on dimensionals.

Used the sunflowers stamp and dies to add additional flowers and some leaves. Stamped them and added layers of greens for the leaves and brown, reds, yellows and coral for the sunflowers. Finished the sunflowers with prills.

The toughest part is lining up the die cuts on the layers to match the shape. This is no easy task.

This is for my mom for mother's day. She has been told no visiting my SCS or blog until after Mother's day. Oh the suspense is going to kill her but I spent over 4 hours on this card so she will just have to wait to see it in person. :)

Thanks Audrie for the fun challenge it pushed me to use one of these fold out cards that I got last Christmas. :)
