Let's Celebrate You

Supplies:  Stamps:  SU Celebrating Sunflowers  Ink:  SU crushed curry and soft suede, GKD black amalgam ink  Paper:  GKD heavy base weight white  Accessories: gems

Hello Stampers!  I made this card using the Card Sketch on SCS.  Here is the sketch.

I made mine pretty clean and simple.  I stamped my sunflowers on the focal panel.  Then I stamped my sentiment on the card base.  Next I cut the sunflower layer to frame the sentiment and popped the pieces up using dimensionals.  To balance out the sentiment I added three gems.  That's all for now!

Little Ladybug

Supplies:  Stamps: SU Little Ladybug  Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black  Paper:  PaperCut Hopstack Black and Wild Cherry,  Gina K heavy base weight white  Accessories:  Copic Markers, SU stitched circle die,  Spellbinders Scalloped and Unscalloped Labels One die cuts, ribbon from stash, Cuttlebug Swiss dots embossing folder

Hello Stampers!  It is time for the Featured Stamper Challenge on SCS.  This week's featured stamper is Linda.  This is the card that gave me inspiration for my card.  I changed the die cut frames, used an embossed panel instead of a stamped panel, and used a different ribbon.

To make the card I started by picking out the label dies that I would be layering.  I found the scalloped label one die cuts and the regular label one die cuts.  I die cut the scalloped label and then used a smaller label one die cut and created a frame out of black paper.  Then I die cut the same scalloped label from red and embossed it with the swiss dots embossing folder.  Next I adhered the black frame to the red scalloped label.  Now it was time for the ladybug.  I stamped it onto white and then die cut it from the stitched circle die.  I cut a black frame and adhered the ladybug to it.  After this I colored in the ladybug with copic markers.  I adhered this circle with dimensionals to the label one die cut.  Lastly I adhered all of my layers together and added a bow.  That's all for now!!

Spring Bird

Supplies:  Paper:  Gina K heavy  base weight white, ColorMates light and medium tempting tanzanite, SU daffodil delight and chocolate chip  Ink: Distress blueprint sketch  Accessories: Cuttlebug embossing dots border, twine ribbon, Impression Obsession Spring Bird, Silhouette branch die cut

Hello Stampers!  I made this card using the Freshly Made Sketches sketch of the week.

I don't know if my card will qualify, because I changed the orientation and flipped the diagonal borders.  To make this card I embossed the dotted borders, and then added the branch die cut as my layer that goes across the card.  Next I added the twine ribbon to the card for the middle diagonal layer.  After this I die cut and assembled the bird.  I did add some shading on the bird using the blueprint sketch distress ink.  Lastly, I adhered all of the layers together and attached it to the card base.  That's all for now!!!!

Hello Stampers!  Today I am participating in the Card Sketch Challenge on SCS.  This is their sketch of the week.

I made this card by starting with the focal image.  I stamped the bee, made a mask for the bee and balloon, and then die cut it from the rectangle die cut.  Then I die cut the puffy cloud border out of masking paper.  I used this mask to create the cloud background.  Then I peeled away the masks and colored in my focal image with Copic markers.  Next I layered the rectangle with a black mat.  After this I decided to emboss the clouds on the white layer, added some ribbon, and adhered it to my card base.  Lastly, I used dimensionals to pop up my focal image.  That's all for now!!

Hello Stampers!  I found a new sketch challenge!  It is called CAS Colours & Sketches.  Here is their current sketch:

I chose to flip the card sketch for my card.  To make this card first I found some patterned paper to use for the strip going across this middle.  I matted it with some black cardstock and adhered it to the card.  Then I die cut the Happy Birthday circle die cut out of black cardstock.  For the bee I stamped it on white cardstock and then die cut it into a circle for the center of the die cut.  I then colored in the bee and added clear Wink of Stella glitter to the wings, and popped up the circle and frame with mini dimensionals.  That's all for now!

White Butterfly Greetings

Supplies:  Paper: Gina K layering and heavy base weight white  Accessories:  SU Scripty embossing folder,  SU Butterflies Thinlits, Sizzix Card Scallop Circle Insert, Offray ribbon

Hello stampers!  The theme for this week's Clean and Simple challenge on SCS is white on white!  I got inspiration for this card from this card:

To make this card I die cut the scalloped circle, cut it in half, and adhered it towards the top of my card.  Then I embossed a strip of white cardstock and adhered it to the bottom of the card base.  Next I added a white ribbon as a seam to these two pieces.  Lastly I die cut the butterfly and adhered it to the card with mini glue dots so the wings could fold up a little.  That's all for now!

It is Featured Stamper Sunday!  Today's Featured Stamper is Laurie.  She has a very large gallery full of fun images and designs.  I chose this card as inspiration for my card:

I kept the rainbow theme, found a similar image, and kept the design the same.  To make the card I started by embossing the cloud design on my back panel of the card.  Then I die cut the scalloped edges and adhered them to the rainbow paper strip.  Next I stamped, colored, and die cut the focal image.  And I adhered the focal image to a scalloped circle, and popped it up with dimensionals.  This was a fun card to make, I LOVE turtles.  

Thanks so much for stopping by!
