"Magnificent Magnolias" Card

Hi Everyone!

Sharing a card I made using the "Magnificent Magnolias" Stamp Floral Stamp Set from The Ton Stamps. 


Here is my card...


I stamped the "Magnificent Magnolias" stamp and colored in the flower with gray at first.  I ended up adding more color to it though.  

I stamped the background striped using the "Haute Stripes Cling Background" stamp.  The "hello, lovely" sentiment was stamped onto shimmer paper, cut out, and adhered to the front using pop-up adhesive.

I topped off the card with clear "Sunshine Mix" Sequins from Simon Says Stamp.

"Beautiful Bloom" Card

Hi Everyone!

Finally got my hands on the "Beautiful Bloom" stamp by MFT.  LOVE IT!

I've been having a ton of fun playing along with Kathy Rac's 30 Day Coloring Challenge.  I've been swatching copics and trying out new combos.  This is definitely a favorite.

Here is my card...




I stamped the "Beautiful Bloom" stamp on both corners of the card.  The bottom image was a bit off, so I stamped it again and added it over the original blooper image.  

I die cut the "Congrats" sentiment with Pink & Main Dies. The bottle layer die was cut in vellum and the top die was cut in glitter cardstock. I also added some glitter cardstock to the bottom edge of the top layer.


I topped off the card with clear "Sunshine Mix" Sequins from Simon Says Stamp.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Hi Everyone!

Happy Valentine’s Day!  I feel this day is all about love and kindness.  Hope you are celebrating and spreading it in some way. 

I made this card for our daughter to open up at her pre-school.  We just got a picture via text, showing her opening it...love!

Here is my card...


I created the background using distress inks and a stencil from MFT.  The stamped image is from Love Cynthia, and was colored in using copics.  The "i love you” sentiment die is from Lawn Fawn.  I cut off the I as the card was coming from mom, dad, and sis.  I topped off the hearts and hair pin with glossy accents.

Congratulations - Peony Bouquet

Hi Everyone!

I've been taking part in Kathy Rac's 30 Day Coloring Challenge this month, and have actually been able to keep up with it!  I colored the images earlier this week, and finally put together the final piece.

Here is my card...






I created the flowers using the layering Peony Bouquet stamp set from Altenew.  In love with this set!  I use both distress inks and my zig markers on the images, and colored them in using my Wink of Stella marker.   I used Nuvo Dots to top if off.

"A Lil' Magic" - Unicorn Card

Hi Everyone!

I colored in this stamp a while back, and finally created a card base for it.  As you can see, it's a card without a sentiment.  I'm going to give it to a niece of mine so that she can gift it to a friend.

Here is my card...


To create the background, I used a layer of distress ink, and then stenciled on a darker distress ink over the "Tiny Spaced Hearts" stencil by Simon Says Stamp.  The stamped image is from The Greeting Farm, and was colored in using copics.  I topped off the card with some

Harry and Hermione - Thank You Card

Hi Everyone!

Happy Friday to you!  Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend ahead.  I'm ready to kick back and binge watch!  

I wanted to share another Harry Potter themed card with you.  It's a card that was requested by a friend.  I didn't have much time to put it together, so I kept it fairly simple.  As much as I like the outside, I LOVE the inside hehe. 

Here is my card...





The stamped images are from My Sweet Stamp Shop.  They were colored in using my copic markers.  I die cut the Lawn Fawn sentiment against the white cardstock, and then again using red cardstock.  I glued the red die cut sentiment in such a way, that it borders the white....love this look.

Lovable Leopards - Birthday Card

Hi Everyone!

Happy New Year!  I wanted to share a cute card using the "Lovable Leopards" stamp set by My Favorite Things,

I diecut a circle from the front of the card, and stamped my images onto a smaller folded card inside.  The bottom of the white cardstock was adhered to the bottom of the kraft card, and tied twine around the two.  I had fun coloring these cuties, using my copic markers.





I used the "Happy" and "Birthday" sentiment stamps from Hero Arts for the front.   I also used some Glossy Accents on the leaves (pic is a bit blurry), and sparkly dot embellishments both inside and outside of the card. 



I made an envelope for the card, and topped it off with this stamped bird...too tweet!



I hope you like my card!  I completed this card for the Let it Shine Lesson 3 - Embellishments.
