SC902 - This Week's Sketch

When I saw the sketch I immediately thought of this star background that I created a couple of weeks ago. I was trying a technique and did not quite get it the way it was described but I did not want to toss the layer because it still was a great background.

I added the star background, die cut the military silhouette and stamped the sentiment.

CC892 - PACIFIC POINT, PEAR PIZAZZ, GORGEOUS GRAPES

I stamped the flowers & leaves and sponged the colors on then shaped them and layered.

I added prills to the centers and stickles to the edges.

For the designer paper I curled the corner then tucked a die cut lace under the corner and added some gems.

Once my card base was created I used an already stamped off Power Poppy image colored it with copics and layered.

I finished with the sentiment banner and some gems.

Birthday Cards

 

CAS686 - Happy Birthday

I am trying to build up my birthday card stash so I actually have 2 cards today.

My first card uses a single candle stamped across the card stock then colored in various copics. I then white heat embossed the sentiment and popped the candles and sentiment up on dimensionals.

My second card uses the new butterfly from DRS Designs. I just had to ink this up as soon as I received it. I then die cut the heart around the butterfly and popped it up on dimensionals.

I finished this card off also with the new birthday wishes stamp from DRS Designs white heat embossed and a few sequins for some sparkle.

Birthday Butterflies

 

FS793 - This week's incredibly talented Featured Stamper Wendy Fee, better known around here as Mingo has an amazing gallery full of inspiration. I found this INSPIRATION

I am working on building up my birthday card stash and Wendy's card was perfect inspiration to use butterflies to create my background.

I used teal, purple and pink distress inks then clear heat embossed the butterflies over the inks. I then used black distress ink over the panel.

Once the panel was finished, I added some sequins and the birthday sentiment.

Foxy Congratulations

 

IC854 - The Postman's Knock - this was my INSPIRATION

A friend needed a woodsy themed baby congratulations card and the inspiration was perfect for me to create this little foxy card.

I used my cricut to cut out the fox and layered adding sponging to the edges of the layers. I added a bit of pink to the cheeks and layered the fox on the embossed wood which I sponged a bit of brown to the raised portions of the wood.

I finished with the white highlights on the heart and the stamped sentiment raised up on dimensionals.

Foxy Congratulations

MIX481 - Yellow

For my card I stamped the flowers and leaves, die cut them, shaped and sponged the colors on. Once colored I layered and added prills and stickles.

I then die cut the other layers and stamped the sentiment.
