Fishy Thanks

 

F4A644 Feeling Fishy

MIX491 - Going Around in Circles

For the base I used distress oxide ink to add a bit of color through a stencil then added glass bead gel over it to create the circle bubbles.

I then stamped the sentiment, die cut the fish and layered.

Christmas Penguin

 

WT902 - Let's go Polar. The Antarctic Treaty was enacted in 1961 reserving the entire continent for free and nonpolitical scientific investigation.

For the card I used the Tim Holtz layered penguin die cut cutting the pieces out of several different scrap papers and layered.

Once he was assembled, I added him to a Merry Christmas designer paper.

Dog Congratulations

 

SC911 - This week's sketch on splitcoaststampers.com

I needed to make a few congratulations cards for my monthly donation.

For this card I cut down the base layer, punched the white squares and cut the red framing squares.

Next, I die cut the dog, bowl and sentiment. The heart dog collar is just a scrap that I added the heart and a gold punch to match the gold sentiment,

2 Cards 1 Background Technique

 

MMTPT726 - 1 Background technique for two cards - I used the Double Stencil Resist HERE.

USEIT2022 - both images

I love getting 2 cards for 1 background technique. This is the double stencil resist technique for 2 little ones that need a bit of cheer.

Once the backgrounds were created I found in my stash these 2 images that were already colored waiting for cards and perfect for a little boy and little girl. One image is from Polkadoodles and the other is a Tilda image.

CAS695 - Use colored card stock for your base

When I think of clean and simple cards I am naturally drawn to white but honestly a card can be CAS with any colored card base as long as there is blank space on the card.

For today's card I used black. I stamped the dog image then colored with copics. I then stamped the soccer ball and die cut it and popped the ball up on a dimensional. I thought it would be fun to add a wobble to the dog for some fun and I sponged the grass and sky on the image scene.

I finished the card with the sentiment heat embossed in white.

Happy Fathers Day


 FS802 - today's incredibly talented featured stamper is Maggie, better known around here as mschoener. Her gallery is full of amazing inspiration. I found this INSPIRATION

I love playing in my scrap drawers and Maggie's card was perfect to inspire this Father's Day card using My Favorite Things alphabet die cut set.

I die cut the letters and glued to the black card stock.

JUN22VSNP - Wianki Festival (wreaths)

I have never heard of Wianki Festival (wreaths) but I do have this wreath from my stack of images needing colored and added to cards. 

I colored it with copics, cut the layers then added the bow and sprinkled on a few gems.
