Thinking of You


Hello everyone! This is the last weekend of June, where did this month go?? I'm sharing my card using Emma from Saturated Canary. I just love her curly hair. She is colored with Copics. I used Lawn Fawn stamps & coordinating dies, Chit Chat, for the sentiment.


The color combo (red/grey/turqouise) is from the paper We Are Family by Echo Park. I added the color purple for fun and I think it works together. I added a satin ribbon and some butterflies for embellishments. Lastly for a bit of shimmer, I used the Wink of Stella Clear pen all around the image for a sparkly halo.

Thanks for stopping by today! Don't forget there is still time to submit your project to our current Challenge over at the 7 Kids Challenge Blog.

See you there!

Mini Mason Jar Tags

 

Hello Tuesday! Just sharing a little project for Not2Shabbyshop featuring Sister Stamps: Sakura Set. I made Mini Mason Jar Tags. Inspired by a post by a fellow crafter, Friday =)

These were so easy to make. I used a mason jar stamp and a punch that matched up perfectly. The mason jar outline is embossed with white embossing powder. I wrapped some burlap string around the top. I used some misc. alpha chipboard ephemera to individually label the tags.


I made a Start-to-Finish video of the tags HERE.
Here are two examples of how the tags look attached to gift bags.

Hello Sunshine


Good Morning Sunday! Here is a card that I made for My Style Stamps. It is their 1 year celebration and I have been invited back to share my creations. 

I am using Flip Flop Love. This particular stamp set will not be on sale BUT will be FREE when you purchase $30 or more on Release Day (while supplies last). The flip flops are so cute with the heart pattern. I added some Yellow Stickles on the straps for sparkle.


I kept this card pretty simple and flat, easy for mailing. Another item from My Style Stamps is the Lemon Yellow Sequin Assortment. This is actually the very first time that I have incorporated sequins into my cards. Love it!

I created a Start-to-Finish video that you can watch HERE

Join us on June 28th for a YouTube Hop for the NEW RELEASE!

7 Kids College Fund Challenge - Anything Goes


Happy Wednesday! A new challenge is up over at the 7Kids Challenge Blog, also check out if you WON and are in the Top 3!

It's "Anything Goes" and here is my card:


"SENIOR-ita" Wanda is the image I used. She is soo full of character, I love her! She is colored with Copics. I gave her really puffy cheeks and added some blush with a pink chalk. I pictured her having lilac colored hair or that lavendar silver that some women ROCK! Her outfit and hearts are accented with Christmas Red Stickles. For her juicy red lips, I added Glossy Accents.

I pulled the sentiment and hearts w/coordinating die from Lawn Fawn - Say Cheese, Let's Roll and Let's Roll Die Cuts. I knew I had a heart somewhere with a matching die!

Lastly, she HAD to be on an Action Wobble!

I have her resting on a table with a doily. She looks like she's reaching across and blowing a kiss =) So there is my card for you today. I hope she gave you a smile =)

Come join us!


 GOOD LUCK!!!

Let's Celebrate


Happy Sunday! My second card for Not2Shabbyshop featuring Sister Stamps: Sakura-chan & Sakura Set. I made a cute baby card.

The layout is similar to the Momotaro card. The banner and sentiment are from Lawn Fawn. All the images are colored with my Copics. I love how the purple color pops with the black background.

This card has lots of dimension. Using the Sakura set, I stamped the images in white ink in the background. All the elements are placed on top of a top note die shape from Stampin' Up!. I added some faux stitching with a white gel pen. Lime Green Stickles were appllied to the cherry blossoms for sparkle.

Last but not least, Sakura-chan is adehered to the card with an Action Wobble. Didn't I tell you that I'm addicted! Hope you don't get tired of these because I still have plenty to use up LOL.

For a closer look of my card, you can watch the video HERE.

Arigato

Good Morning Saturday! Let's get your crafty weekend started with a card. All of the products shown can be found at the 7 Kids College Fund Store

I had in mind to create a sushi table scene when creating this card. I used three stamp sets and two coordinating die sets, all from Lawn Fawn. Pretty much everything is adhered with dimensional pop dots.
I added a few sparkles with Stickles - Fruit Punch & Star Dust.


For me, sometimes visuals are the best, so I made a two part video that you can watch me Start-to-Finish over at my YouTube Channel: 



There's still time to join our current challenge over at the 7 Kids Challenge Blog. 

Have a beautiful & crafty weekend!

Momotaro


Good afternoon! Okay I just made the cutest boy card ever...well in my opinion LOL. I am Guest Designing for Not2Shabby Zibbet Shop this month of June and I will be featuring the NEW RELEASE June Sister Stamps. First one up this month is Momotaro:

Isn't he adorable? I was at a crop with some friends and decided to color him. I currently don't have a Copic coloring video of him because I borrowed the "Peach" colors from a friend. As soon as I add those colors to my collection, I will film a coloring video =) BUT I do have a Start-to-Finish Video of the card assembly. You can watch it HERE.

My last card here, I fell in love with Action Wobbles. Guess what? I had to use them again in this card! I fussy cut Momotaro and one half of the peach and that is the part of the image that is interactive.

He is on top of layers of leaves from La-La Land Crafts (Open Leaf Flourish Die) and a Doily Die from My Creative Time (Stitched Doily Die). I used a premade corrugated cardboard card for my base. I had some Asian themed designer paper and jute rope to match his headband.

I love this card and I hope you did too. Thanks for stopping by! Come back for more projects featuring Sister Stamps.
