Autumn Greetings for a Coffee Friend

Tags

Bazzill, Distress Markers, Maya Road, Newton's Nook, Nuvo Pearl Drops, Ranger Archival Ink, Your Next Stamp

Autumn greetings to you!  Today I made a card for a thoughtful neighbor and dear friend.  She not only treated me to a lovely afternoon coffee at our local coffee shop but she also treated my family to her pumpkin bread, which is TO DIE FOR!  I thought it would be the perfect card to link up to the super fun Coffee Lover’s Bloghop for fall.  #fall2017clh

 

As you can see I used Newton’s Nook stamps from two separate sets and stamped them with Ranger Archival Black ink onto water color paper.  I used my Distress Markers to watercolor the images.  I added a few Nuvo Pearl drops and mounted the watercolor panel onto two layers of Bazzill cardstock in two shades of brown, added some Maya Road self adhesive lace ribbon.  I added a mat of Your Next Stamp Crazy For Coffee paper to a Bazzill card base, then I popped the watercolor layers up onto the card with foam tape and called it done!

Just popping in for a quick card I made today.  I used the adorable YNS Bitty Bugs for the YNS Challenge #68 (that link takes you right there!)  I went with the color challenge with my card.  The background is my Distress Oxide Inks in Salty Ocean and Cracked Pistachio…and I spattered it with water, that is the fun part!

Bitty Bugs Card

I cut the clouds using the Spring Showers Lawn Cuts by Lawn Fawn and the grass border is also Lawn Fawn (I think…)  I colored these adorable bugs with my alcohol markers, stamped the sentiment inside one of my clouds, added Wink of Stella on the insect wings and called it complete!

Thanks for stopping by and be sure and check out Your Next Stamp blog, they have some great inspiration!

Pow! Zam! Boom!  I am here today to show you a card I made for a fun challenge on the Your Next Stamp blog.  You can access Challenge #68 Here. and this is my card.

Little Darling Super Hero for Challenge #68

I absolutely LOVE the images in this set by Your Next Stamp, it is called Little Darling Super Heros.  There is also a little Super Hero girl in this set!  I will use her is another card later on.

I colored my little hero with alcohol markers and styled him after my husband (when he was a little boy).  He is my SUPERHERO!

The adorable mask has it’s own stamp and die, so you can use a mask on your little superhero or not.  I stamped mine in Barn Door Distress Oxide ink and clear heat embossed it to give it added shine and dimension.  The city skyline behind him was die cut from a Paper Smooches Super 2 die.  Then I stamped the sentiment and stars and white heat embossed them.

Here is a closer look at the card.
