Taco Birthday


Supplies:
Stamps: Lawn Fawn Year Nine
Paper: Gina K White and Stampin' Up Poppy Parade

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black and Distress Inks: Barn Door, Broken China, and Mustard Seed
Accessories: Lawn Fawn Year Nine Dies, EK Success 1 3/4 inch circle punch, Pickett Fence Blending Brushes, Copic markers, Gelly Roll White Gel Pen, Lawn Fawn Stitched Scalloped Borders

Hello Stampers!  I made it!  Our last day of school was last Friday!!  I squeezed in some crafty time yesterday.  I made this using the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches:

For my card I started with the tacos. I stamped, die cut, and then colored in the tacos.  Then I punched out three circles and ink blended the bottom portions of the circles.  Then I used the same distress inks and inked up the confetti stamp to create a background for the tacos. Next I cut a strip of white card stock and stamped the sentiment.  To cover my seam in the card I die cut the stitched scallop border.  Then I just adhered everything to my card front.  For the inside I stamped the confetti background and added stitched scallop border.  I also had an extra taco so I adhered him in there also! :)

Thanks so much for stopping by!!  I am headed up north tomorrow, but when I'm back I am looking forward to sharing my cards!! :)

Beachy Birthday

Stamps: Stampin Up Rolling Waves and Peaceful Moments
Ink: Stampin Up Crumb Cake, Distress Inks: Broken China, Peacock Feathers, Tumbled Glass
Paper: Gina K White, Stampin Up Crumb Cake
Accessories: Stampin Up Seasonal Layers Thinlits Dies, Rolling Waves Dies

Hello Stampers!  I'm here 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 some ink smooshing.  I didn't have any of the DSP for the water so I created my own.  Then I die cut and adhered the rolling waves dies in vellum and white, and adhered it to the ocean water layer.  Next I cut a piece of crumb cake cardstock and adhered the ocean to the top, stamped some sand where the Adirondack chair was supposed to go, and then adhered the Adirondack chair.  I tucked in a birthday sentiment using crumb cake ink.  To finish the front I adhered this layer to a white card base.  For the inside I used some of the ink smooshed cardstock and die cut the white foam to create an ocean layer on the inside.  To finish the card I stamped a sentiment.  I love this set and how detailed the ocean shore is.  

Thanks so much for stopping by!!

With Sympathy

Stamps: Wordsworth With Sympathy, Stampin' Up Phrases and Frames
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Distress Inks: Wild Honey, Salty Ocean, Worn Lipstick
Paper: Gina K White, Stampin' Up Basic Black
Accessories: Spellbinders Cattails, Stampin' Up More Messages Die, Something Fancy Dies

Hello Stampers!  It is Featured Stamper Sunday over at Splitcoaststampers!  Here is the card I CASED:

For my card I started with the background.  I inked up my acrylic block with distress inks and spritzed it with water.  Then I took my white piece of cardstock and placed it on the block.  I did this three times until I got one that I liked.  I let it dry as I worked on the other components of the card.  I ran some black cardstock through the Zyron and die cut the cattails twice.  Then I stamped the sentiment and die cut it.  I also stamped the sentiment on the inside and die cut it and matted it with black.  By this time my inked panel was dry.  I adhered the inked panel to a black mat, and adhered it to my card front.  Then I popped up the sentiment.  For the inside I adhered the sentiment and used a partial die cut of the cattails as well.  And that completed my card!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Paper: Gina K White, Stampin' Up Basic Black, Daffodil Delight, Simon Says Stamp Matte Gold Card Stock
Accessories: Taylored Expressions Graduation Border, Recollections Embossing Folder, Spellbinders Layered Congrats, Simon Says Stamp Ultra Fine Gold Embossing Powder

Hello Stampers!  It is Graduation season!  I have one niece who graduated from college this weekend, and a niece that will be graduating high school in the next couple of weeks!  So the CAS Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers, use a die cut, was perfect for these cards.  I love it when the die cut does the work for you as a focal image!  I simply added some embossing to the focal panel, and then added some strips of paper in their school colors.  After I adhered the graduates, I die cut the sentiment and adhered it to the front.  For the inside I added those same strips of card stock, and stamped a sentiment.  

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Lighthouse Birthday



Supplies:
Stamps: Stampin' Up Phrases and Frames, Best Year
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper: Gina K White, Stampin' Up Night of Navy and Scenic Coast 6x6 DSP
Accessories: Stampin' Up Sunset Coast Dies, Something Fancy Dies, Dimensionals, Ribbon from Michaels

Hello Stampers!  It is Featured Stamper Sunday over at Splitcoaststampers!  Here is the card I CASED:

For my card I started by cutting the card front panel and it's navy mat.  Then I die cut the lighthouse at the top of the front panel.  I went through the different papers in the Scenic Coast 6x6 DSP and picked out a background for the lighthouse.  It was hard to choose, they are all so pretty!  After I picked one out I lined it up behind the lighthouse, and I traced the front panel onto the DSP, cut it out, and adhered it to the back of the front panel.  Next I stamped the sentiment, and adhered the ribbon treatment.  With the ribbon being a bit thick I decided to pop this up with dimensionals onto the navy mat.  To finish the front I adhered the card front to the card base.  For the inside I stamped, die cut and adhered it to the inside of the card.
And that completes the card!! 
Thanks so much for stopping by!
