Happy Birthday - SSC392

Hello!  We have a new sketch challenge up over at Sunday Stamps today.  It's a good one!

The leaf stamp is an old red rubber stamp from Rubbernecker stamps (now Brass & Bliss). I used Eucalyptus ink from C&9 to stamp it onto a card base.  The cardstock behind the image is also from C&9 and it matches the ink.  The birthday stamp is Globeland off of Amazon. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Get well soon

Hello. I finally got my new Paperartsy set designed by Alison Bomber and was playing around with it and a new stencil from Studio Light and came up with this.

I used walnut distress ink with the stencil, then stamped the tallest grass stamp over it.  Get well sentiment is from My Favorite Things. 

I'm entering this into the following challenges.

Simply Clean & Simple - nature

CAS on Friday - get well

Masculine Happy Birthday - TSOT701

Hello. Welcome back to another sketch over at Try a Sketch on Tuesday.  

I created the background paper using Paperartsy infusions. The stamps used in the background are from Sweet Miss Daisy Designs. 

The cogs are die cuts that are sprayed with the infusions, then highlighted with Lisa Horton waxes.  Some of the cogs and the chain are from Stampin Up! Birthday sentiment is from Honey Bee Stamps.

Here is the link to play along.

Merry Christmas - SSC391

Hello and welcome back to another sketch challenge over at Sunday Stamps.  The sketch is a square card this go around.

The background was created using a lot of different mediums onto a master board.  It includes gesso, paint and paperatsy infusions, stamps, stencils etc.  I used the blanket-stitched dies from Pink Fresh Studio to cut the squares out. 

The snowflakes dies from My Favorite Things and the Merry Christmas sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp.  

Here is the sketch.

Jolly wishes - TSOT700

Hello and welcome back to another Christmas in July sketch over at Try a Sketch on Tuesday.

The background snowflake stamp is from Rubbernecker stamps. I stamped it in white and then heat embossed it in fine white detail embossing powder.  I drew lines with a white gel pen per the sketch.

The snowflake is a die from Trinity Stamps, and the wonderful Santa and sentiment is from Avery Elle.  He is colored with Copic Markers. 

Here is the link to play with our sketch challenge.

Wishing you a beautiful day

Hello. I'm playing in a few challenges today with this card. 

The bicycle dies are from Brass and Bliss. The cloud stencil is from A colorful life designs and the trees, bushes and hill stencil is from Simon Says Stamp.  I also used their inks to blend through the stencils.

I sent this off to a Co-workers wife who is a SU demonstrator, as a thank you. She recently made up a bunch of card kits that were handed out to us during our last meeting.  Such a sweet gesture and much appreciated.

Thanks for stopping by.
