Baby Giraffe

 

CAS755 - Put some Orange on your cards

For my card, I wanted to use this cute giraffe image from DRS Designs. I thought it was perfect for a baby card.

I stamped the image and colored it with copics. Next, I created a heart aperture and embossed the panel. I then layered the image under the panel.

The card was finished with die cutting the congratulations 3 times in white card stock and then using the orange copic used for the image to color the top layer.

With Sympathy

 

FS862 - this week's incredibly talented Featured Stamper is Micheline (Micheline Jourdaine). Her gallery is amazing. I found this stunning INSPIRATION.

I love the painted scene. For me I was drawn to the flowers in the vase and I knew I had flowers in a vase that needed colored up.

I colored the flowers with copics then cut the layers. Added some black matting and finished with the sympathy sentiment.

For my card, I needed to use up this dog image from my stack of images. I colored it up with copics then fussy cut it. I then used some fun papers that work perfect for a pet card and layered it on an already die cut oval from my scrap drawer.

The card was finished with some black gems and the sentiment popped up on dimensionals.

This card along with others are headed to my monthly pet donation cards.

Your Kindness

 

WT961 - Afternoon Tea

For my card, I found a really cute teacup cut file in my stash and used my Cricut to cut out the layers. I added some highlights and sponging and popped some of the layers up on dimensionals.

I layered it on a fun die cut pink border and added a coordinating DP layer.

The card was finished with a few gems and the sentiment.

I needed to use up this image and thought it would be perfect for another of my pet donation cards. I colored it up with copics then fussy cut it.

Stitched Thinking of You

 

MMTPT785 - 8 of Something

For my card, I die cut the stitched layer and used a floss that is multicolored with what appears to have about 8 different colors in it.

Once the base was stitched I layered it on a blue card stock to pick up the bit of blue in the floss and then stamped the sentiment in green. The card was finished with some coordinating flowers and Nuvo Drops.

Billiard Birthday

 

CAS754 - 1 rectangle & 1 circle

For my card, I used a couple of pool images from DRS Designs and colored them up making sure to add some pink. I have several family members that play pool and wanted this card to be a bit more girly.

I cut down the layers and added a pink accent layer.

For the circle layer, I cut the edge of the card down just a bit so that I could hang the image off the edge and still have it fit in a 4.25 x 5.5 envelope.

I finished with the sentiment in pink to match the pink in the images and the layered card stock.
