Just a note

Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge over at Less Is More. It's a theme challenge this week and we are looking for Music.

The just a note die is from Concord & 9th. I used a music sheet background stamp from Gina K designs and cut out the sentiment. Added a few notes around it for interest. The stitch dot frame die is from Jillian Vance Designs. 

Here is the cue card.

Gnome birthday

Hello. Playing in The Paper Players sketch challenge today.

I just got a lot of new background stamps from Echo Park as they were having a huge warehouse sale. The houndstooth background was one of them. 

The Gnome die is a recent purchase from Gummianpan. I cut him out of white cardstock, then colored him up with Copic markers.  Background embossing folder is from SU and the birthday sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp.

I used a bunch of distress inks and oxides to blend out the tag and took creative licensing with the sentiment placement. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Fall birthday card

Hello. Using an old Memory Box stamp to create this fall birthday card today.

I used Tombow markers to color directly on the stamp, spritzed it with a shot of water, and stamped it on the cardstock. The birthday stamp is from Jaded Blossom. Cut the panel out with a stitched cover die from MFT stamps, then adhere it to a dark chocolate card base. 

Here are a few challenges that I'm adding this to:

Colorful Options - orange

Happy Little Stampers - Birthday AG

Pinspirational challenge - Birthday and leaves - mood board (fall)

Four Seasons - fall

You don't look a day over fabulolus

Hello everyone. Here is your mid-month reminder about the current challenge going on over at The Flower Challenge blog.

 

Here is another card that I created for the current challenge.

Here is another quarter of my stenciling session with the Altenew stamps and stencils. Simon Says Stamp inks are used here.  

Dragonfly die is again from Memory Box, I believe. I have so many dragonfly dies that it's hard to keep track. LOL.

Have a fun and spooky Halloween

Hello everyone, 

Here is the last card that I designed using the new stamp set called Halloween Ghosts. This is such a cute set with so many possibilities for a lot of cute cards and Halloween projects. 

I kept this card very clean and simple. I stamped the ghost in versafine ink then heat embossed it so that I could color it with Copic markers. I then highlighted the glasses with glossy accents. 

I found a piece of cardstock that matched the color I used on the glasses to stamp the sentiment. A square die was used to cut out the image and then I layered everything in black. As you can see by the shadow, I did use foam tape behind the ghost to give it some dimension.
