Week of 7/20/19 Cards

 FS649 - This weeks incredible featured stamper terry serman where I found these cute Cards.

USEIT2019 - Onsies & Butterflies

I had a stack of already die cut onsies that I wanted to use and seeing Terry's cards with the sweet little elephant hanging over the top of the card was perfect inspiration for my cards.

Cut the layers using coordinating papers to match the onsies. Layered on brown CS and punched either stars or hearts for the front of the onsies. Embossed the layers behind the onsies. Grabbed some already cut lace trim and finished off with ribbon, sentiment and butterflies.

Oh My Goodness
 MMTPT573 - The need to read

CT0719 - Comeback Cards

USEIT2019 - Lace butterfly

I made This Card some time ago and really loved how it came out using a book page for the tag. So I recreated it with purples.

Cut the tag and layered, cut the DPs, added ribbon and lace and finished off with the button and gem.

Purple Butterfly
 No challenge for this card. My DH's coworker asked for a card for her daughter who lost her precious little boy. I was so touched and honored to make this card for her and only wish it will spark some joy.

Heat embossed the feet in blue WOW glitter. Cut the layers and die cut the lace layer. Stamped and die cut the flowers, shaped in the flower shaping molds, sponged the colors and hot glued together. finished off with prills in the centers.

These frames were in my pile of stuff to use up. One was purple, one was teal plaid.

First I used acrylic paint and colored them green. Then I used the plaid lawn fawn stamp and stamped versimark and heat embossed white plaid over the green. I added foam tape and acetate to the frame and punched a bunch of baby bottles for the shaker element.

Added the card base layers and finished off with the ribbon and sentiment.

Congrats baby

Sponged on red, green and blue and die cut the triangle layer and laid over the sponged BG. Stamped the sentiment and popped on dimensionals so the end of the feather could lay under the sentiment.

 FS648 - the absolutely very talented whippetgirl aka Lee Ann Barrett is this weeks Featured Stamper. I found this amazing Card.

The card shape reminded me of this swirly die cut from Heartfelt Creations. I used an old card kit that I am trying to use up to create this card. The kit comes stamped and cut, you just need to color, shape and layer.

Used similar pink to shade my lily and added some green to the edge. Sponged the edges of the layers and shaped the flower and pedals. Layered the center on dimensionals and layered the die cut and flower. Finished off with prills and stickles.

Used my Cricut to cut the Ninja Warrior image in black CS. Stamped the blue base with the large screen BG stamp from SU to give a blue mat back ground to the image. Heat embossed the sentiment and glued down the layers.

A very good friend is competing in American Ninja Warriors in July and she asked for a card for one of her team mates. She gave me less than an hour to make the card. Well I will be making a few more because this was made in about 10 minutes. :) So glad for VSN because it pushes us to make quick cards for just such an occasion.
