Thank You So Much Pup

 

SC1089 - this week's sketch on splitcoaststampers.com

For this card, I trimmed several layers of designer paper to build the layout, creating a playful yet polished foundation. The top layer features an adorable Hunkydory dog image that adds charm and personality. I popped up the “thank you” sentiment on dimensionals for added depth and finished the card with a few scattered gems for a touch of sparkle.

This will be another of my pet donation cards.

Thank You

 

CAS873 - What are you thankful for?

I am thankful for so many things, and a large Thank You card felt like the perfect way to express that for the challenge.

I used a Spellbinders die cut, first cutting it from black cardstock and then from white to create two distinct cards. For the word "You," I layered three white die cuts and topped them with one cut from silver glitter paper to give it extra dimension and sparkle.

FS980 - this week's featured stamper Linda, is better known as Lindam530 - INSPIRATION

I adapted the theme into a dog card so it could be included with my pet donations. Using Tim Holtz images, I colored them with Copics and then cut them out with the coordinating dies. To finish the design, I added a plaid banner and layered it over coordinating designer paper for a cohesive look.

The card was finished with the "Thanks" sentiment.

IC1041 - Rubylane - INSPIRATION

For my card, I was inspired by the adorable Santa Cup. I pulled out this cute Spellbinders Santa die cut and cut the layers adding glitter to the top.

The die cut was layered on a red oval then layered on the North Pole News designer paper.

The card was finished with several stacked snowflakes with the top layer also out of the same glitter paper as was used on Santa's top.

F4A821 - For the Boys

MIX668 - Highlights

For my card, I used a fabulous die cut set from Spellbinders. I cut the individual pieces, sponged the drink for added depth, and layered everything together. The arrow is die cut from gold glitter paper, and I repurposed the negative space as one of the background layers to add extra sparkle. The drink glass is positioned over a half doily for a touch of texture and elegance.

To accent the hearts, I added white highlights using a gel pen.

The sentiment is stamped in red ink and popped up on dimensionals for added dimension and focus.

Scrappy Birthday Flower

 

WT1079 - Old and Dusty

For my card, I reached into a bin filled with premade flowers, brads, gems, and other fun embellishments, many of which I purchased years ago when Archivers was still around. These were some of my very first cardmaking supplies, and it was a joy to revisit them.

I layered several designer papers with white matting to build the layout, then finished it off with a flower embellishment secured by a green brad at the center.

To complete the card, I added a birthday sentiment popped up on dimensionals for a touch of depth.

Magical Castle Story

 

SC1088 - this week's sketch on splitcoaststampers.com

For my card, I combined two different Spellbinders die cuts to create a layered book scene, then added a die cut dragon from Karen Burniston to bring the story to life.

The scene is set atop designer paper that resembles marble tile, because, of course, castles are full of marble!

To finish it off, I added a birthday sentiment to complete the magical look.
