Alcohol Marker, Creative With Stamps Challenge, Lawn Cuts Dies, Lawn Fawn, Newton's Nook, Winston's Tee Time

Happy Summer greetings!  The August theme for our Creative With Stamps Challenge is Father, so I am posting an easel card that could be used as a birthday or Father’s Day card.  I also tucked a gift card for our local Golf Course inside this card so Dad could enjoy a couple of rounds of golf. 🙂

I used Newton’s Nook Winston’s Tee Time set.  I colored the images with alcohol ink and fussy cut them out.  I do not have the dies, but the images aren’t too difficult to fussy cut.

I used Lawn Fawn Lawn Cuts for the grassy border and the cloud border.  I raised the grassy border a bit so the card would sit nicely tucked slightly into the grass.

Mom, You Are Pure Sunshine

AALL & Create, Close To My Heart, Creative With Stamps Challenge, CTMH, Lawn Fawn

Sunny greetings to all, today is our post for the Creative With Stamps Challenge for May, where the theme is MOM.  In the month of May here in the United States we celebrate Mother’s Day and the start (at least this year) of the more summery weather and sunshine.  That is why I had to use the beautiful stamp set by AALL and Create Stamp Set #37, which reminded me very much of the sun or a flower.  It is a beautiful Zentangle style design.  The set has a circle/spiral filled with all sorts of pretty doodles and there are extra stamps in the set as well.  There is a cloud that also resembles a crown (ideas floating around in my head), leaves, scalloped arcs, striped arcs and bubbles.  I won this and three other fabulous sets that I will feature in the near future.

I stamped it in VersaMark clear ink and heat set it using my antique gold embossing powder.  I had a blast watercoloring it in with my Distress markers and water brush.  I added a hillside using my Lawn Fawn Stitched Landscape die.  I wanted to make it look like the sun was rising from behind the hill, but I didn’t want to hide too much of that gorgeous design.  In addition to some embossed clouds that I had stamped from the stamp set, I also stenciled on additional cloud formations.  I popped up the Happy Mother’s Day sentiment which is from a very old Close To My Heart set and mounted it all onto a medium blue card base.

Please head on over to the Creative With Stamps Challenge to get some inspiration and we would love to have you participate, so enter your Mom themed cards!

Alcohol Marker, Distress Oxide Ink, Elizabeth Craft Designs, Lawn Fawn, Nuvo Crystal Drops, Sunsational Stamps

Welcome! Today I am making a card featuring Sunsational Stamps Arctic Cuties you can find it Here.  I love the little penguins and wanted to make a slider card and have my little male penguin sliding down to be next to his love. ❤

I printed the images onto white card stock, colored them in with alcohol markers and fussy cut them out. For the snow banks and background I die cut the Little Town border twice, one on white card stock and one that I had sponged with Distress Oxide ink in Wilted Violet, then I trimmed the houses off the white one so I could use the lower portion as the snow-covered hill they reside on.  I cut another hill with a second landscape die  from Lawn Fawn.  I die cut the slider piece in the bottom snow bank piece using Elizabeth Craft Designs Sliders and Spinners die set.  I attached the boy penguin using two pennies and foam dots to assemble the slider mechanism.  This panel was popped up on the top snow hill using a double layer of foam tape.

I used a light blue Bazzill textured card stock for the sky panel.  I added snow using my Nuvo Crystal Drops in Simply White.

Alcohol Marker, Art Philosophy, Bazzill, Close To My Heart, Copic, Elizabeth Craft Designs, Honey Bee Stamps, Lawn Fawn, Nuvo Crystal Drops, Ranger, Sunsational Stamps, Wink of Stella

Sweet greetings to y’all, today I made an anniversary card for my hubby.  I used the adorable Woodsy Critters digi set from Sunsational Stamps that you can get Here. This set is packed with many adorable images…critters and their accessories.  🙂

I chose the bear…as you can tell from previous posts, I am partial to bears.  I colored him with Copic markers.  I also colored and die cut some adorable bees and hearts from one of my favorite Honey Bee Stamp sets Busy Bees and the sentiment was from the Bee-You-tiful Sentiments set, which I embossed with an older Ranger embossing powder in Lettuce Green.  The hive was made using two kinds of hearts from the Close To My Heart Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge.  The tree branch was actually the tree from my Elizabeth Craft Designs die All Seasons Tree.  I am famous for using die cuts in a non traditional way…I like to get the most bang for my buck!

I added Wink of Stella shimmer to the bees wings and the hearts.  I used Ebony Nuvo Drops for his eyes.  I LOVE the look on his adorable little face.

I used a Lawn Fawn landscape die on some Bazzill cardstock in green (sorry, I forgot to take note of the color name) added that to sky blue cardstock.  Mounted that onto a piece of Kraft cardstock and put the whole kit-n-kaboodle onto the card base.  I forgot to mention that I had popped up the “beehive” and I did not adhere the leaves down, just the stem so the leaves have a little dimension.

I hope you enjoyed today’s card.  Please follow the blog by clicking on the “Follow Me” button, Like us on Facebook and follow us on Instagram so you don’t miss a thing!

Close To My Heart, CTMH, Lawn Fawn, Sunsational Stamps

Greetings, today we are going fishing!  I just LOVE these adorable bears and this Go Fishing set from Sunsational Stamps is so versatile.  You can use this digi set for so many occasions.

Fishing You Were Here Card

The background was super easy, I used my eBosser to cut out two sizes of stitched squares and a stitched circle, as well as the stitched clouds from Lawn Fawn.  I used paper scraps from my stash, so I am not sure who the manufacturer is, but I do know they are old enough to have been discontinued. teehee…

Close up of Bears in Go Fishing

I purposely colored the canoe with the lines to show wooden boards.  I colored all the elements with alcohol markers and fussy cut them out.  I popped up the canoe with foam tape to give it dimension.  I put it all on a Poppy colored base from Close To My Heart and then added it all onto a Lagoon cardstock card base also from CTMH.

I hope you liked today’s card.  Please follow the blog by clicking on the “Follow Me” button.  Like us on Facebook and follow us on Instagram so you don’t miss a thing!

Under the Shade of a Daisy

Alcohol Marker, Copic, Distress Inks, Elizabeth Craft Designs, Lawn Fawn, Mermaid Lagoon, Speech Bubble Edgy Options, Sunsational Stamps, TCW

Hello one and all, today we are thinking summertime.  I am using the Mouse and Flower  stamp set from Sunsational Stamps that you can find Here.  The little mouse seeking shade under the daisy makes me smile. I am a huge fan of daisies and believe it or not, mice…the cartoon version that is.  🙂

Hello Mouse & Flower Card

First off, I used an oval template, taped down to the lower right corner of my cardstock, and then taped a chicken wire stencil ( from TCW) over that. I sponged on Distress Ink in Mermaid Lagoon.  Once I removed the stencil, I again sponged more Mermaid Lagoon over the entire oval opening.  This process darkens the already inked pattern and lightly colors the actual chicken wire outline. Then I colored this cute little fella with my Copic markers and fussy cut the mouse and daisy.  I used foam squares to pop it up on the stenciled area.
For the ‘Hello’ (by Lawn Fawn), I die cut both a piece of orange cardstock as well as the yellow speech bubble which is a die set from the Speech Bubble Edgy Options set by Elizabeth Craft Designs.  I did this so I could inlay the word into the bubble and eliminate bulk for easy mailing.
This panel was adhered to a top folding white notecard and it was complete.
I hope you enjoyed today’s card.  Please like us on Facebook follow us on Instagram and follow our blog so you don’t miss a thing!

Amy Tangerine, Close To My Heart, CTMH, Doodlebug Designs, eBosser, Lawn Fawn, Memento Inks, MFT, Nuvo Crystal Drops, Raisin Boat Stamps, Tonic Studios, Versamark, Wink of Stella

Hello, today I had to make cards for a couple of friends that are struggling with difficult life issues.  The style of the cards I created lend themselves to really any occasion.  They can easily be adapted for birthday, congrats or sympathy, just by changing up the sentiment and color choice.  I did not want these cards to be maudlin, I wanted them to lift the spirits without being silly or too light-hearted.

Hi, Thinking of You

Inside of Hi card

This first card I used Raisin Boat Growing Love stamp set that I stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and Pacifica Blue ink from CTMH for the berries and graphic blooms.  I stamped twice so I could get two shades of blue and I LOVE the lighter version, it is so pretty.  I added Nuvo Crystal Drops by Tonic Studios in Navy to add dimension and interest to a few of the blooms.  The HI die cut is from MFT, I got it free with a promotion, and you all know I love promos!  I cut it several times in Beetle Black cardstock by Doodlebug, glued all the layers together and topped it off with clear Wink of Stella, and dotted my “I” with an enamel dot.  I finished the top layer off with a piece of ribbon from my stash (that looks like it was made just for this card) and added that layer to the card base.

For the inside of that card I used Lawn Fawn‘s Scripty Sayings and added a little butterfly stamp from a CTMH set, layered that on black and called it done!

Floral Hugs

Inside of Floral Hugs

My Floral Hugs card was created using one of the blooms from the same Raisin Boat set Growing Love.  I stamped the flower in Terra Cotta ink from CTMH and then re-stamped it using Versamark ink.  I then sprinkled clear embossing powder on the images and hit it with the heat tool.  I ran the paper with the images through my eBosser using a CTMH confetti embossing folder.  I fussy cut out the flowers and set aside.  I then cut a piece of Amy Tangerine paper I have had FOR…EVER on a bit of an angle and adhered it to the card base.  I added the flowers to cover up the seam and stamped Big HUG in Terra Cotta ink from my CTMH Big Hugs stamp set.

For the inside I stamped off that same flower in the Terra Cotta to make a much lighter version and then stamped Thinking of You from the CTMH Seaside Greetings stamp set (also in Terra Cotta).  I layered that panel onto the Amy Tangerine patterned paper, added it to the inside of the card and Voila!

I hope you enjoyed the cards for today.  Please follow our blog by clicking on the ‘Follow Me’ button, Like us on Facebook and follow us on Instagram so you don’t miss a thing!

Lawn Fawn, Newton's Nook, Sunsational Stamps

Spring greetings everyone! I am back on the Sunsational Design Team! We are expanding and have a fabulous Design Team, so grab a cup or glass of your favorite beverage and stroll, or as it may be, scroll through the new store and peruse the blog for some super Sunsational inspiration!

Today I used the adorable bunny from the new City Critters image set and created a slider card.  The bunny is busy painting eggs and enjoying a beautiful spring day.  He slides back and forth over the little hill spreading Springtime smiles.  Look for more of the adorable images from this set in the coming weeks.  You can see all the adorable critters if you hop on over to the shop, which you can access Here.

Oh Hoppy Day Card using City Critters Image Set

Below are pictures showing all the items needed to make this card, plus the “mechanics” of the slider element.

What I used to assemble the card.

Mechanics of the Slider Element.

I used Lawn Fawn, Lawn Cuts dies for the stitched hill and the Springtime Showers for the sun and clouds.  When I cut the hill I also cut a piece of white cardstock twice to make a track for the slider.  Then I put strips of foam adhesive slightly larger than the dime, which is what I attach the bunny to.  I also created a small paintbrush for the bunny to hold.  I used foam tape to pop up the hill to give the bunny room to roam.  I made little Easter eggs by coloring little oval cut outs and I used a white gel pen to add little decorations to the eggs. I then sprinkled enamel dots to represent Jellybeans.  Finally, I stamped one of the clouds with “Oh Hoppy Day” from a Newton’s Nook stamp set.  I added the sun and clouds and called it done!

CTMH, Lawn Fawn, Live Love Cards, Pebbles, Pretty Pink Posh, Washi Tape

Well hello there!  Today we are all about Washi tape.  Who can resist those fat rolls of decorative tape?  I have oodles and oodles of Washi tape, so when Darlene from Live Love Cards posted July’s challenge, I knew I had to join in.

I wanted to create a card for one of my friends that needs a little pick-me-up…so, with no further ado, here is this weeks project.

Washi Hello

Washi Hello

I used Washi tape from Pebbles and my Lawn Fawn Scripty HELLO die, paper from my stash, and embossed the base with my CTMH Dots embossing folder.  Finally I added some Pretty Pink Posh clear sequins to add a little somethin’ somethin’

Doodlebug Designs, Lawn Fawn, Scripty Thanks, Sunsational Stamps, Wink of Stella

Greetings!  Today’s card serves a double purpose, it is a thank you card for my dear friend who treated me to my half-birthday lunch.  tee hee….. Any excuse to go to lunch, right?!

The second reason for the “Thank You” is to the fabulously talented Lisa and Janet from Sunsational Stamps for giving me a wonderfully fun seven months on their very creative design team.  Today marks my departure due to extra responsibilities at work…sigh.  I am hoping this is a temporary situation so I am looking forward to this chapter, with hopes I will be able to manage the time necessary to re-join at a later date.

Thanks a Bunch card

Thanks a Bunch card

On to the details of card…  I used the lovely image Bouquet Of Flowers by Sunsational Stamps. I added some details to the flowers and a little shimmer using Wink of Stella.  I die cut ‘Thanks’ using the Scripty Thanks by Lawn Fawn, I cut it once using gold embossed cardstock (left over from a previous project) and an additional two times using plain white cardstock to give it more depth, then added it to some pink grosgrain ribbon and mounted all of this onto Doodlebug’s Orchid cardstock.

Thanks A Bunch card, close-up
