Hello Stampers!  I'm back to share the card I made for the Featured Stamper challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  Here is the card I CASED:

For my card I stamped my focal image, and colored in the eggs.  Then I die cut it with a stitched rectangle die.  Next, I applied a twine ribbon treatment.  For the background I picked out a piece of patterned paper, and adhered it to the card base.  To finish the card I popped up my focal image.  I kept the inside simple, by adding a strip of patterned paper and a sentiment.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share my card that I made using the Freshly Made Sketches, sketch of the week.

The hardest part of this card was finding patterned paper for the strips.  I don't use a lot of patterned paper, so this was a struggle for me.  Thank goodness for 6x6 paper pads!  Once I picked out my papers and cut them into strips I adhered them to the card base.  Then I assembled the Easter gnome.  I was going to adhere it to my card, but I thought the gnome needed a background.  So I embossed a cloud background, and then adhered my Easter Gnome.  For the inside I stamped and die cut my sentiment, and added an Easter egg in the corner.

That's all for now!  Thanks so much for stopping by!!

Valentine Car Gnome

Supplies:

Stamps: SU Meant to Be (inside)

Ink: SU Real Red

Paper: Gina K White, SU Real Red, Basic Black, Balmy Blue, Blushing Bride, Pink Pirouette, Simon Says Stamp: Matte Gold and Silver Cardstock

Accessories: Spellbinders Gnome Drive Hearts for You and Gnome Drive Holiday, Honey Bee Fluttering Hearts Pierced Cover Plate

Hello Stampers!  I'm back to share with you a card I made for the Featured Stamper challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  Here is the card that inspired my card.

For my card I used a car instead of an airplane, a gnome instead of Eeyore, and heart balloons instead of round balloons.  To make my card I started with the gnome, it is a bit time consuming but it is worth it.  It is so darn cute!  Next I cut a panel of white and matted it with blue cardstock.  I cut it so the balloons would go over the top a bit.  For the background I die cut the pierced hearts and adhered it to the card base.  For the inside I duplicate the pierced heart background and then cut a white panel and matted it in blue.  Lastly, I stamped the sentiment on the inside panel.

That's all for now!  Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello Stampers!  I made this card using the sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches:

I kept my card pretty clean and simple!  I embossed the egg and die cut it.  Then I used the tiny crosses texture die on the card front.  Next I cut and adhered the gingham DSP.  I added the wavy trim as a border to my DSP, and popped up my Easter egg with dimensionals.  Then I stamped and die cut the senitment and adhered it to the card. For the inside I heat embossed the sentiment and die cut it with a stitched rectangle die, and die cut a balmy blue Easter egg.

That's all for now!  Thanks for stopping by!!

Hello Stampers!  Here is another card that I made using the sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches.

For my card I started by picking out some patterned papers.  Then I punched out the cupcake.  I added stickles to the frosting to add some texture and shine.  I decided to emboss the paper behind the cupcake.  Then I stamped and die cut the sentiment.  For the bottom portion of the focal panel I added some patterned paper.  And now I just noticed I forgot to add the scalloped bottom!  LOL!  For the background I matted some patterned paper with some teal paper from the same paper pad.  For the inside I stamped and die cut the sentiment, added some patterned paper, and another cupcake.  

Thanks for stopping by!!

Paper: Paper Rose: Country Quilt 6x6, Gina K White, SU Pebbled Path

Accessories: Gina K large and small oval dies, SU wavy trim, brushed brass butterflies, Pickett Fences blending brushes

Hello Stampers!!  I am sharing a card that I made for the Featured Stamper challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  Here is the card I CASED:

For my card I started by picking out some patterned paper.  Then I picked out some coordinating Distress Inks.  I ink blended a background, and die cut it into an oval.  Next I stamped the silhouette image.  I decided to use a dark brown instead of black.  I thought it would compliment the soft colors I chose.  I thought black would be too stark.  Next I cut the patterned paper, stamped a sentiment, and adhered it to the card base.  I used some wavy trim to polish up the edge of the patterned paper.  And to finish the front I added some butterflies to the focal image, matted it with pebbled path cardstock, and popped it up onto the card base.  For the inside I stamped and die cut the sentiment and added it to a strip of patterned paper.

That's all for now, thanks for stopping by!!

Hello Stampers!  I squeezed in one more card this weekend!  The CAS challenge on Splitcoaststampers is to make a Valentine with non-traditional colors.  To make my card I cut the front panel of my card and then die cut the Strands die.  Then I put some low tac tape behind the front panel so I could paper piece the teal pieces into the die cut.  I tucked in my die cut shark that I colored with Copic markers into the strands.  Then I used my Misti to stamp the sentiment.  To complete the front I adhered the front panel to the card front.  For the inside I used my Misti to arrange the shark and sentiment, and then colored in the shark with Copics.  I adhered this panel to the inside of my card.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I'll be back next weekend, have a great week!!

Hedgehog Valentine

Supplies:

Stamps: SU Teeny Tiny Wishes, SU Lots of Heart (inside), 

Ink: VersaMark and SU real red

Paper: SU From My Heart Specialty DSP, SU Zoo Crew DSP, SU Real Red and Gina K White

Accessories: May Arts Twine, Brutus Monroe Alabaster White embossing powder, Waffle Flower Scalloped Circles Die, SU Many Hearts Dies, SU Stitched Circles Dies, Copic Markers

Hello Stampers!  I'm back to share my card for the Featured Stamper challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  Here is the card that I CASED:

For my card I started with the focal image.  It is actually not a stamped image.  I die cut the hedgehog with a stitched circle die from the Zoo Crew DSP.  The hedgehog wasn't colored in so I used my Copics to color in the image.  Then I die cut a scalloped circle as a mat for it.  I popped up the focal image on the red scalloped circle and added a twine bow. Next I found some DSP that coordinated with the image and added a strip to the left and added a thin strip of real red cardstock to give the DSP a finished look.  To finish the front I used my Stamp a ma Jig to stamp the sentiment.  For the inside I added a strip of the DSP and a strip of red cardstock.  I heat embossed the sentiment onto a red heart and that completed this card.

That's all for now!  Thanks so much for stopping by!!
