Happy Easter

 

SC956 - This weeks sketch on splitcoaststampers.com

USEIT2023 - Image

I needed to use up this image from my stack of images. I know Easter is over but I really thought this would make a cute Easter image.

Once the image was colored with copics I found this paper in my scrap drawer and added a few layers of cardstock to accent the papers and image.

Since the designer paper was light enough I added the sentiment directly to the designer paper.

Lots of Birthday Candles

 

MMTPT771 - Birthday Celebration

For my card, I found this designer paper in my drawer of scraps I needed to use up and thought it would be perfect for a quick birthday card for our destination this week.

I cut the paper down, layered on a coordinating purple and popped the sentiment up on dimensionals. I finished with some green gems to bring out the green dots on a couple of the candles.

More Special...

 

CAS740 - Flowers

I absolutely love this new sentiment. So many wonderful people I can use this for cards.

For my card, I created a floral boarder, stamped the sentiment and colored the floral boarder with copics. I then fussy cut the boarder and popped the panel up on dimensionals.

The card front was finished with stickles in the flower centers.

Birthday Girl

 

FS847 - This week's incredibly talented Featured Stamper is Imke, better known around here as germanstampler. Her gallery is amazing. Here is my INSPIRATION.

When I saw Imke's card I immediately thought of this cute image in my stack of images needing used. For my card I layered the image on a DP, added the birthday sentiment and added a few shaped flowers with Nuvo Drops.

Stitched Birthday

 

IC908 - Great Big Canvas - Here is my INSPIRATION

I have wanted to play with this stitched die cut from Spellbinders and thought today's inspiration was perfect for using it. 

I die cut the stitched die cut and used a rainbow floss to create the background. I then added a simple birthday sentiment popped up on dimensionals and a few square gems.

Sorry for Your Loss

 

F4A688 - Colorful & Simple

MIX535 - choose your inspiration (I chose Napkin)

For me, I love making napkin cards. They are very quick and some are full of color. I bought a pack of these napkins and really think they work great for quick sympathy cards.

I glued this to a white card stock then glued it to the black card base.

I white heat embossed the sentiment on black and finished with a few scattered gems.

Christmas Train

 

WT946 - Clouds

For my card I used a stencil and Nuvo Mousse to create the snowflake pattern for the base.

Next, I used a spellbinders train die cut to cutting all the pieces and gluing together. I added some Nuvo drops to the train and then die cut a couple of clouds for the steam from the train. I added the sentiment to one of the clouds.
