Sending birthday wishes

Funny, each one of my Fusion designer cards this month has a birthday theme to them. 

Poppy stamp is from Technique Tuesday and colored with Copic's. I used a copic multiliner to extend the stems. Sentiment is from The Ton.

Hello everyone. It’s time for a new sketch challenge over at Try Stamping On Tuesdays.

The blue gingham paper is from A*Muse studio. The butterfly die is from The Greetery. I used a alcohol ink background n Yupo from my stash to cut it out, which happened to work well with the designer paper. The sentiment is from Hero Arts.

Here is the sketch for you to use as inspiration.

Wishing you the beary best

Hi everyone. It's my turn to share a project of the week over at The House That Stamps Built. I've decided to share a favorite card with you again.

The bear is colored with Copic's and I added a bit of "fur" texture to him using some blending solution and a fuzzy wash cloth.  

I dug this out of my stash and added some glossy gel black pen to his eyes and nose. I like how that little bit makes his cute face stand out more. I did use my Brother Scan N Cut to cut him out.

This little bear is so versatile. He/she can be used for birthday, anniversary, etc.  

Have a great day!

Autumn themed thinking of you

Hello. Playing in the Addicted to CAS challenge #207, which is Autumn.

Pumpkin and crow stamps are from Plum Purdy (they don't make stamps any more). I stamped the pumpkin in Honey Bee intense black ink (loving this ink) so that I could color it using Copic's. The small crow was stamped in versafine clair ink, then heat embossed so that I could fussy cut him out. I did pop him up for dimension on the card. The thinking of you sentiment is from Altenew.

Neenah cardstock used as the base and it's top folding. In hindsight, I think I should have embossed the pumpkin image as well so that the crow stood out more. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Christmas

Hi all. Playing in this weeks Freshly Made Sketch #504 today.  Went a little rustic on this slimline Christmas card.

I made an online purchase from a stamp company and they wrapped up my purchase in this gingham paper. It was actually a bag, but I cut it apart and used it on this cad. Sentiment is from Impress cards and crafts and I embossed it in Ranger liquid platinum embossing powder. Most of the dies used for the greenery are from Echo Park/Carta Bella. Doodlebug designs made the dark red candy dots that I used for the holly berries.

Thanks for stopping by.

Never lose your sense of wonder

Thinking of you

Hello. Playing in the Addicted to CAS challenge of Leaf today.

The small leaf image is from The Stampin Place. I used Rubbernecker fuse inks to blend colors with a finger dauber onto it before stamping it. Sentiment is from WPlus9. Card base is a deep green.

ETA: also entering this into the AAA cards #198 challenge.

Thinking of you

Hi everyone. It's time for another challenge over at The House That Stamps Built. This week our challenge is to some sparkle and shine.

I've had this circle stenciled panel sitting in my unused card bits since the last time we did a circle challenge. Well, decided to put it to use on this. I stenciled and then used platinum embossing powder on the dots then came back and embossed a strip of sookwang tape using the same powder. I also decided to do the same around the perimeter of the circle die cut. This made for a lot of shine and dimension.

Stamp your envelope challenge

Hi everyone. It's time for another challenge over at The House That Stamps Built. This week our challenge is to stamp your envelope too.

I used the butterfly from the moments quartet to stamp both the envelope and the card. Colored with Copics. I ended up making my own envelope to match the card base.
