These Boots Are Made For...

I am one of the volunteer team members of the super fun challenge on Thursdays at Splitcoast Stampers. Today we are adding pairs of something on our cards. Now is anyone shocked I did shoes? Giggles!!! I really love how this card turned out and if I saw these boots in a store I might just have to buy them. :)

Copics Used: C1, E13, E35, E37 and E51.

We hope you come join the fun on our challenge!

These Boots Are Made For...

Red Tea Party

I love the Teapot Tuesday challenge on SCS especially when we get to exchange with others as we get to see their stunning cards in real life. This challenge was to use a Red Teapot on our cards. Very carefully using the masking technique I added two images to this card and colored with copics. It is always fun to have new card crafters join in the fun so if you are wanting to see some of these great cards we exchange every month on the last Tuesday of the month. We hope you come join the fun!

Copics used: C1, C3, R20, R24, R32, RV21, RV34, E31, E33, E51, Y21 and B32.

Happy Panda Birthday

Using a Bamboo emboss folder I inked one side ran white card stock through. Then Cut down the black banner and heat embossed the Happy birthday. Added the fun Panda Sticker and Foot sticker.

Graduation Mouse

I needed a graduation card for my sweet nephew that spent a week helping me move. I could not have done that week without his help. I just adore this darling house mouse image and thought it was perfect for a masculine graduation card. Colored the image with copics, added stickles to him for some fun shine. Die cut the circle and layered. Used the graduation EF on the top and some fun striped paper on the bottom. Mounted on a black CS then the red card base.

Wild Birthday

Needing to do another masculine birthday this was the perfect inspiration for my uncle who just loves being out in the world of nature. I used a animal print DP to mirror the animal print on the nails. Stamped the image and colored with copics. Die cut the image in a circle and mounted on black. Stamped the sentiment and die cut that also in a circle and on black. The scene on the brown was stamped twice to get all the way across the card and it worked perfect. Then I mounted that on black. The leaf started as a DP with cream and white. I die cut the TH leaf, drew in the veins then added 4 different colors to the leaf to add the colors and interest. Mounted all on the DP, then clack and then craft card stock. I added a bit of interest to the top right corner with a chevron and added three dots of liquid pearls.

Day Lily Birthday

This was so super fun to play with to do this card. I don't often get a chance to use the water coloring brush I have but today I drug it out to play. Using five Tim Holtz distress inks and my water color brush I colored this cute flower. Then adding some layers and the oval to draw the eye in I mounted the flower after adding some dimension and sponging some brown around the flower and stem to get the flower to pop. Finished the flower off with some stickles and liquid pearls.

Distress inks used: Wild Honey, Special Marmalade, Scattered Straw, Peeled Paint and Mowed Lawn.
