Boo card

 Hi everyone,

Today’s card is just the beginning of my Halloween cards for this year.

I started by ink blending my background with 2 different colours of Distress ink.

I die cut the circle background from a piece of black card stock. I stamped the images and coloured with Copics.

I decided to add a little sparkle to the card base by inking the edges with Versamark ink and embossing with Black Diamond embossing powder.

I added a white panel to my card followed by the ink blended panel and then the circle die last.

The BOO letters were die cut with black card stock twice. One set I left black and the other set I added some metallic ink over top.

I stamped Boo in each corner circle then added all my other elements with foam tape.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by.

Supplies:

Studio Katia Dotted Patterns Loops die

Lawn Fawn Oliver’s Stitched ABC’s die set

Hi everyone,

Today I have a card to share that I created using a new die from Hero Arts called Sun Flare.

I started by running the die through my die cutting machine to cut out the white outline.

I then ran the die through my die cutting machine several more times in order to cut out all the different colours of card stock and glitter card stock.

Before I glued the small middle panel to my card base I stamped the sentiment in dark brown ink.

I used a stitched leaves die set to cut out the 2 leaves from shiny card stock and added them to my card with foam tape.

Well that’s it for my quick and colourful card and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

Hi everyone, 

Today I have a card to share that I created for the current Lawnfawnatics challenge #108 using their Inspiration photo 

Here’s my card.

I created my background using a Ken Oliver’s Color burst powder which I adhered directly to my card base.

I then die cut all my Mermaids and the rock and then coloured them with Copics. All other images were stamped directly using various colours of ink pads.

I assembled my scene adhering some of the images directly to my panel with glue and the others were adhered with foam tape.

Stickles was added to the Mermaids in colours to match their outfit.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

Hi everyone,

Today I have a card to share using a stencil from Pinkfresh Studio and some ink blending with Distress 

Oxides.

I started by securing a slimline stencil to a white panel on my Make Art Stay-tion. As this was a slimline stencil I used a rectangle masking stencil over top so that I could have a nice clean white border around the edges of my panel and then began blending.

When I was finished with the blending I die cut a scalloped frame to go over top. I adhered the panel and my frame to my card base. The sentiment (Perfect Sentiments from Pinkfresh Studio) was stamped with black ink and cut out with the matching die. 

The wonderful thing about this stamp and die set is that you can stamp and die cut several different sentiments at once having some left over for other cards.

After the sentiment was adhered with foam tape I added the jewels to my card. Two rows of turquoise and one row of yellow. These beautiful sparkly jewels are also from Pinkfresh Studio.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

Pinkfresh Studio Diamond Motif slimline stencil

 Hi everyone,

I used the Floating Leaves stencil from Simon Says Stamp and ink blended 5 different colours of Distress inks on to a white card base.

I heat embossed the edges of a tan card with gold embossing powder and added my panel to a piece of white card stock and then popped it up with foam tape.

Hi everyone,

Today I have a card to share that I am entering in the Lawn Fawn current Lawnfawnatics challenge #107 where the theme is 3D cards.

Details on their blog here

I started by die cutting the pieces for the box with cream coloured card stock. I then used the tropical leaves stencil set to apply 2 different colours of Distress ink.

I die cut the grassy border with green card stock and die cut and Copic coloured all the other images.

I assembled the box and added the toucans onto strips of acetate so they could move. Once everything was added in place I added glitter glue accents here and there.

It has been a while since I created one of these boxes and forgot just how much fun they are to make and I hope you like it.

Well that’s it for my card/box project and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

Hey there sunshine

 Hi everyone,

No doubt we have had an ample amount of sunshine this summer. Nice day to be on the water in a boat or just in the water period. Hence, my card. Entering in the current Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge https://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/

I started by creating my background using a slimline stencil and ink blended 3 different shades of Distress inks.

The sailboats were die cut twice from white card stock and just the masts and boat hulls were coloured with Distress inks also.

The die sentiment was cut from a piece of orange glitter card stock and glued directly to my base whereas the other sentiment cut from a Paper Rose collection and foam mounted to my card.

I added a strip of patterned blue paper to the background and added my panel to that. The boats were glued directly to the background and some glossy accents was added to each.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

 Hi everyone,

Don’t know where you are but it’s awfully hot here in Montreal so I decided to hide away in my craft room for a while.

Today’s card i a  entering in the current Simon Says Stamp IG challenge where the theme is to use a stencil and the current Flickr challenge #181 where the theme is Friendship and Flowers.

I chose the Flora stencil from SSS and used it on purple card stock with Nuvo Glacier paste. I love all the glossy shine that it gives. As this stencil is quite delicate I used an adhesive spray to hold it in place so I could apply the paste.

I used both vellum and a piece of black card stock to die cut the Hugs word. The other is a preprinted sentiment from Paper Rose.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

 Hi everyone,

Today I have a card to share for the August Simon Says Stamp IG challenge where the theme is to use a stencil.

I used the Raindrop stencil and ink blended a bunch of Distress inks in rainbow order onto white card stock.

The sentiment and word die are from Altenew. I die cut the word from white vellum and stamped over top with a mix of blue and purple Distress inks to follow the order of the raindrop colours on the card. I also heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.

The sentiment was stamped on black card stock and embossed with white embossing powder.

I used a rainbow paper from Lawn Fawn to cover my card base and adhered the blended panel with foam tape and added the word sentiment with foam tape also.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

 Hi everyone,

I’ve been a little quiet lately just enjoying the outdoors and soaking up the sunshine ☀️ but I do have a card today to share with you using Lawn Fawn and Simon Says Stamp products.

I applied my stencil to a piece of white card stock and then began blending the different colours of neon inks masking sections of the stencil as I added my colours.

I die cut the word die once with black card stock and than again with pink card stock. I glued the two together offsetting them.

The other sentiment was stamped with clear embossing ink and heat set with white embossing powder.

I added my panel to a piece of black card stock and added that to my card base.

Both the die cut word and sentiment strip were added with foam tape.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by🙏🏻
