my card today uses the new Birthday Greetings Stamp Set and Cake Builder Die Set!

so sweet and fun, right?
I did a LOT of die cutting! I die cut out the pieces for the cakes about 6 times! I used a warm vanilla cardstock for the cake base, and then 3 different pink cardstocks for the decorations of the cakes!
I also used a light gray for the cake stand.

the sentiment was heat embossed with clear embossing powder in Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink onto vellum. then I die cut it with the big banner from the Frames & Flags Die Set.

 

I finished off the card by adding some matte white sequins around the cake images.

thanks bunches and bunches and bunches and...

hello!
today I have this fun, floral card up on the Newton's Nook Designs blog!

I just love these bright colors, and beautiful flowers!
so fun, right?
I stamped the images from Newton’s Blooms Stamp Set and Dainty Daisies Stamp Set and then colored them in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I really wanted to make the card POP with all of the flowers! I added some details with a white gel pen. once everything was dry, I used the coordinating dies to die cut them out!

for the background, I used some white cardstock and did some ink blending with Pine Needles, Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron Distress Inks. I also die cut out the frame using the Card Layout 3 Die Set from white cardstock. I popped it up with foam tape, and then placed the images on top!

I finished off the card by adding a few sequins to the flowers. I also heat embossed the sentiment in white onto black cardstock, and then trimmed it into a banner shape. the sentiment itself is also from the Dainty Daisies Stamp Set.

be sure to check this card out on the Newton's Nook blog, too!
enjoy!

 

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #222 - Thank You for Being a Friend

happy Monday!
let's start this week off with a NEW challenge over at the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge blog!

I just recently realized that I have a low amount of Thank You cards, so this is the perfect challenge for me! I can't wait to be inspired by all of the entries!

this is such a fun challenge!

I started by stamping the images from Critters in the Jungle and Critters in the Desert. I used Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then added some details with a white gel pen. once eveyrthing was dry, I used the coordinating dies to die cut them out.

for the background, I used the Flippin' Awesome Add-on and lots of ink blending with Distress Oxide Inks. I used Seedless Preserves, Picked Raspberry, Dried Marigold, Tattered Rose for the sky. I used Vintage Photo and Fossilized Amber for the ground.

the snakes were popped up with foam tape. and everything else was attached directly to the card.

I die cut the sentiment using the Henry's ABCs from Fog Cardstock. then I used the Basket Weave stencil and some Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide Ink to add a little scale-y texture!

I really can't WAIT for you to play along! you could win a $25 gift certificate to Lawn Fawn!!!!

enjoy!

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #211 - Sparkle and Shine

happy Monday!
let's start this week off with a NEW challenge over at the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge blog!

what a fun and exciting mood board!

so fun!
I am in looooooove with this mood board and all of the sparkle, shine and rainbows!!

I did lots of die cutting and not one stamped image - crazy! lol
I started by die cutting the camera with the Magic Iris Camera Add-on from Black Licorice, Fog, and Narwhal cardstock.
I also die cut out the rim around the camera lens with the Magic Iris Camera Pull-tab Add-on from Black cardstock and then turned it into a shaker card! what fun!

 

I used the Stickles Glitter Gel - Dark Matter for the middle part of the camera! I LOOOOOOOVE that happy, bright color!
for the shaker part, I used various sizes and colors of sequins in my stash. then I also added some sequins to the glitter part of the camera.

I also die cut out the Scripty Cheers die to add to the festive spirit!
the sentiment is from Yeti or Not and was heat embossed in gold to add to the gold foil in the paper on the card base, which is from the All the Sparkles Petite Paper Pack.

 

I really can't WAIT for you to play along! you could win a $25 gift certificate to Lawn Fawn!!!!

enjoy!

it's happy meowr somewhere!

hello!
today I have a card up on the Newton's Nook Designs Blog and I had so much fun making this fun, summery and happy scene!

so cute, right?
I stamped the images from the Newton's Happy Meowr stamp set and then colored it with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I also added some details with a white gel pen. I just love the little shell images that are sprinkled around the scene!

to create the beachy background, I stared by ink blending a piece of white cardstock. I used Fossilized Amber and Vintage Photo for the back. then I splattered with the same inks, as well as some white acrylic ink to make it look sandy.
I used Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon and Peacock Feathers for the ocean! then I use a large dry brush and some white gesso to add the beach spray! so fun!
and I couldn't resist adding some sequins to the beach spray too! so fun!

I heat embossed the sentiment in white onto black cardstock and then fussy cut around it. I also popped it up with some foam tape!
be sure to check this card out on the Newton's Nook blog, too!
enjoy!

all of these new products are so fun!
and sooooo versatile!

what a fun and unique die set!

 

I'm currently obsessed with floral cards...as you can tell with this one! lol!

I stamped the images from the Cherry Blossoms multiple times and and then colored them in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. once the images were all dry, I splattered some white acrylic ink on top!
I die cut out the butterflies with their coordinating dies, and I also used the dies to die cut some vellum, and layered the butterflies on top of the vellum layer!

the background is actually very simple!
I die cut the new Filigree Oval Frame from white cardstock, and then placed it on some very soft, light grey cardstock.
even though it's simple, it really helps the bright pink blossoms pop!

I die cut out the 'hello' from black cardstock, and then sprinkled some sequins around and on the Cherry Blossoms, too!
