Plaid Sled Card

 Supplies:

Stamps: Stampin' Up Sophisticated Sled

Paper: Gina K White, Simon Says Stamp Matte Silver, Stampin' Up Cherry Cobbler, Mossy Meadow, Pecan Pie, Iconic Celebrations DSP 6x6

Ink: Stampin' Up Basic Beige, Cherry Cobbler, and VersaMark

Accessories: Stampin' Up: Baker's Twine Essentials Pack, Sophisticated Sled Dies, and Gingham Ribbon Waffle Flower: Nesting Oval Dies and Lacy Oval Dies, Gina K: Puffy White Embossing Powder, Rubbernecker: Deckle Hills Dies

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share a card I made using the sketch of the week over at Freshly Made Sketches.

I started with the oval.  I wanted it big enough to use the Sophisticated Sled in.  I found that the Waffle Flower ovals worked the best, so I die cut a plain white oval and a scalloped oval to mat it.  Then I die cut the sled and assembled it.  For the flourish part of the sketch I made a snowy hill.  To give this area some texture I tried out Gina K's Puffy Embossing Powder.  I like the snowy look it created.  Then I had to decide on the card base.  I started with a white card base, but I thought it looked kinda blah.  So I had out my Iconic Celebrations DSP and the plaid stood out to me.  I put it behind the oval, and I really like how it looked.  So I cut it down to have a 1/8" border for the Cherry Cobbler card base.  For the inside I stamped the sled in Basic Beige, and then used Cherry Cobbler ink to stamp the sentiment.  

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

Hello stampers!  I'm here to share a card I made for the Featured Stamper Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  Here is my inspiration card:

For my card I stamped, colored, and die cut my sunflower for the focal image.  Then I die cut the ovals to mat the focal image.  For the background I cut a piece of DSP, and added some twine.  I then adhered this piece to the card base, and then adhered the oval piece to the card base as well.  For the inside I adhered a strip of DSP, added a sunflower die cut, and stamped my sentiment.  

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

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share a card that I made using the sketch of the week over at Freshly Made Sketches:

I had so much fun die cutting all of these cute little Halloween dies!  Once I had them all die cut, I adhered them to some card stock circles.  For the background I used the Waffle Flower Spider Web texture die.  Next I arranged and adhered the circles to the spider web layer.  I thought it needed a little something, and I happened to have the lemon lime twist ribbon on my desk!  So I added that to the card.  That's all for now!  Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share a card that I made for the Featured Stamper Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  I selected the following card as inspiration for my card:

For my card I change the orientation of the card.  I used a butterfly swirl embossing folder for my butterflies like she did.  Instead of adding white butterflies, I adhered some of the brass butterflies in with the embossed butterflies.  I did the sentiment the same way I used gold embossing powder instead of ink for my sentiment.  For the inside I just put a couple of butterflies so there would be room to write a note.  That's all for now!  Check back soon I also made a Halloween card this weekend!  :)

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

For my card I started with a red card base, then die cut the white layer with the Quilted Card Front Die.  Then it was on to the gingerbread boy.   I stamped and die cut it using the stitched rectangle in the Master Layouts 7 dies.  I colored in the gingerbread with Copic markers.  I added a red mat from the same Master Layouts dies.  I chose to use the same ribbon treatment.  My gingerbread man wasn't as big as hers so I added a heat embossed sentiment.  For the inside I stamped the sentiment and some sweet treats.  And that completes my card.  

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Paper: Stampin' Up: Blueberry Bushel, Pebbled Path, Basic Black, Simon Says Stamp: Fog and Matte Silver, Gina K: White

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black

Accessories: Spellbinders: Gnome Drive Graduation, Gnome Drive Holiday, Starshine Background, Wonky Rectangle Dies, Stampin' Up: Tasteful Labels Dies

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share a graduation card that I made for my nephew!  He went to school to be an electrician and he recently graduated!  We are so proud of him!!  For my card I chose blue because that was the color of his cap and gown.  For the cardfront I die cut it with the Spellbinders Starshine Background.  From there I made the focal point.  This set has a lot of pieces but it is so gosh darn cute!  Once I had it put together I adhered it to a wonky rectangle die that I picked up at a crafty rummage last weekend!  I felt like it still needed something so I popped up a sentiment.  For the inside I die cut the cap again and added a sentiment.  

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

Boo To You

Supplies:

Stamps: Pretty Pink Posh Ghost Friends, Taylored Expressions Simply Said Halloween

Paper: Gina K White, SU Basic Black, Gorgeous Grape

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black

Accessories: Pretty Pink Posh Ghost Friends Dies, SU Matte Black Dots, Gina K Decorative Tag Set, Memory Box Ghost Trio, SU Cobwebs Embossing Folder, Ribbon-Stash, May Arts Twine

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share a card that I made for the sketch of the week over at Freshly Made Sketches.  

For my card I started with the background.  I partially embossed the cobwebs, and added a ribbon treatment to cover up the seam this created.  For the tag I didn't know what color to make it.  I had a white, orange, and purple tag cut out and decided to go with the purple.  I adhered the ghosts on the tag and it needed a lil' somethin' somethin'.  So I added some matte black dots.  I thought about using a fine line pen to make them look like spiders, but I decided against it.  I added some ribbon to the tag and made a twine bow to finish off the ribbon.  I finished the card by popping up the tag and adhering the layers of the card together.  For the inside I stamped a sentiment and some ghosts.  

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