USEIT2023 - Image

I am continuing to use up the images from my pile of stamped off images for 2023. I will also continue to use the items in my tote to try to get these items out of my craft room. I made a lot of progress in 2022 and hope to have all the images used by the end of 2023 and more of that tote gone. I hope you continue to stop by to check out my progress for 2023.

For this card I used this cute house mouse image that was in my stack of images and I colored it with copics.

I then cut the layers and added a few scattered hearts from a bag of hearts on my desk. I also added some white gel to the hearts to add a bit more interest.

Thank you for stopping by to check out my card today. I appreciate the lovely comments. If you leave me a comment, I can stop by your blog for a visit.

I am also entering this in the anything goes with garnet and amethyst colors challenge here.

Valentine's Day

Wonky Birthday Cake

 

MMTPT754 - Big and / or Bold

For my card I used several scrap card stock colors and the Spellbinders Wonky Cake die cut to create the cake.

I finished the cake off with glitter paper for the icing.

CAS723 - Celebrate in Gold 

For my card I stamped the globe in black ink and then masked the image and sponged the blue ink around it.

Once the panel was done, I added a blue strip under the panel, stamped the sentiment and added some gold gems.

I have a second card to share today

I decided to do the exact same card but used the stamp in a different way. Rather than the bold black stamping I did a white heat embossed look for an even more subtle CAS card.

Once the panel was sponged, I layered the card the same and added some lighter gold gems.

FS830 - This week's incredibly talented Featured Stamper is Carol aka **Carol**. Her gallery is full of some incredibly wonderful inspiration. I found this for INSPIRATION

USEIT2023 - Wood Hearts from my tote

I loved the row of hearts on Carol's card and the stripped paper reminded me of banners. So I cut out a bunch of scrap papers using a banner die cut and layered them on the bottom of the card. I then created the row with the sentiment and added a couple of wood hearts from my tote.

IC891 - Clocks Inspiration Pinterest board. Here is my INSPIRATION.

USEIT2022 - Stickers

I love the inspiration board today. So many to choose. My inspiration had some gears and I have this die cut clock with gears that is perfect.

I cut out the clock, cut the papers and layered. The base layer designer paper I added some sponging to get an antique feel and I added some to the layer under the clock.

I then grabbed some sticker gems from my tote to finish off the card.

WT929 - Go with old-fashioned scenic stamping (with lots of masking....), die-cuts, or a scenic stamped image

For my card I dug through my paper scraps and used several die cuts to create the scene. For the base I sponged some blue clouds to create the sky. The scene was finished off with some Nuvo Drops and the birds and a few flowers were popped up on dimensionals

USEIT2022 - I needed to use up this image from my stack of images. 

For the base I used a dictionary page and layered it on black card stock. I then die cut some scraps and layered those and added a few scattered music note gems from my stash.
