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.

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!

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!
