Cute Elephant Birthday!

Hi Everyone,

Today I have created a card for the 7 kids college fund Challenge #129 which is Anything goes with a twist of Stars & Stripes! I have used the absolutely adorable stamp set from Wplus 9 Unforgettable, these elephants are the cutest, don't you think?

I used my pencils on this card and I will list the colours at the end of this post. My tags were die cut using Lawn Fawn Tag you're it , I cut one in navy and the other in vellum stamped the stars in versamark ink and used white embossing powder and then heat set. The white background is stamped with MFT Diagonal Stripes in Memento Lady bug dye ink.

The sentiment is from the same set, I just masked off some of the words and stamped in Memento Pasis Dusk dye ink.

I hope you enjoyed my card, I had a great time making it.

I would like to enter this card in the

Some Bunny....

Hi Everyone,

Today I have a card for you featuring Mama Elephant Stamps

I have used Honey Bunny Stamps & Dies, now I know this is one of there older sets, but I have only just got it and have wanted this one for a long time, it's so so cute! I coloured the bunny in E 50's  and carrots in Y07, Y38 , YR14 copic's , then blended tumbled glass and evergreen bough distress inks for the sky, used some patterned paper and the Lawn Fawn stitched hillside borders for the ground, the clouds are die cut from the lawn fawn hello sunshine set, and to finish off I used the Mama Elephant Confetti die for my hearts.

Here is the inside using the other bunnies in the set.

Hi Everyone,

Hope you are all well and happy, I am running a little late with this post, but life has been hectic.

The lovely ladies at the Lawnscaping Challenge Blog are Calling all Critters!!!! 

I just had to create a card with the wonderful critters from Lawn Fawn stamps....

I have used LF Critters at the dog park and coloured my images with copic markers and die cut with the coordinating dies, for the fire hydrant I stamped it on some red card stock and fussy cut it out, the 

little bird is from the Year Four stamp & die set, the sun and clouds are from the Hello Sunshine set and in this case I only used the dies, I also used the grassy border & stitched hillside borders, all the papers used on the card are also from Lawn Fawns awesome products.

This is the inside of my creation, I have used LF Mermaid ink to stamp my paw prints, I purchased a couple of the LF inks to try and I must say I love, love, love them and can't wait to get more of the colours ( plus the 5 new colours that have just come out ) .

Jump over to the Lawnscaping Challenge blog for the Calling all Critters Challenge 107 and be in it to win a fabulous voucher from Ellen Hutson.

Thank you for visiting me today, I hope you enjoyed seeing my critter creation!

Celebrate Your Day

Hello Everyone,

Well I have been missing the last month, as I've had major computer issues. But now I am back with a card featuring Avery Elle stamps for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge with the theme Anything goes, who doesn't love the anything goes theme.......

I started with a circle stencil and distress ink, but only inking about 3/4 of the way up. Then stamped the frilled banner in versafine onyx black and the lanterns in ranger dye ink classic cherry and each has a dose of clear wink of stella brush, I stamped extra circles from the stamp set in oranges and yellows, and the little star bursts in gold ink and clear heat embossed them to match the gold matting for the card. The sentiment is from the same set stamped in versafine onyx black ink.

I had a lot of fun creating this card and I hope you enjoy it to

Hello Everyone,

Today I have a card for you using my new MFT products, I recently placed my first order with My Favorite Things and they are fabulous!!! Great quality clear and rubber stamps and dies.

I am playing along with the current MFT Sketch Challenge, I started by die cutting my fishtail shape out of a piece of white cardstock and using the negative space, then stamped the gorgeous MFT gingham background stamp in soft pink ink. I stamped the little dog and from the BB You Have my Heart Stamp & Die set, and coloured him with copics. I cut another piece of white cardstock for the insert and sponged a little distress ink in peacock feathers and evergreen bough, using the sentiment and the little elements of paws and bones I stamped these in versafine onyx black ink and used clear embossing powder and heat set. I had a lot of fun creating this card, I hope you like it too.

Have a great crafty day!

Pretty Pastels

Hi Everyone,

Hope you are all well and happy, and have had some time to craft today.

Today I have made a card using Power Poppy Digital Stamps - Geraniums 

 

I have coloured the image with prisma premier pencils for a softer look, I am really happy with the way it turned out. I used a MFT scallops stencil and distress ink in spun sugar, I also used shabby shutters distress ink around the image and the little scallop borders top and bottom, which are die cut from Lawn Fawn stitched scallop borders. The sentiment is from Hero Arts stamped in MFT Jelly Bean Hybrid ink. I added a few little sequins to finish off.

I would like to enter my card into the April Pop of Pastel Challenge

Dog Gone

Hi Everyone,

I have been missing in action the past few weeks, I have been moving house, so huge! I haven't even been thinking about creating until I had everything organized. I am getting back on track now YAY! and have a card to show you today for the

  Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.

SSS is really celebrating as this week the Wednesday challenge blog is turning 6 years old!!! and they would like us to use SSS exclusive products.

I got out this super cute stamp and die set called You are Pawesome and coloured him up with my warm grey prisma premier pencils ( just for a change from copic markers ) I am really happy with the way he turned out. I used SSS Stitched Rectangles to cut a white piece of cardstock, masked the edge with micropore tape and used the crafters workshop stencil and festive berries and fired brick distress ink to sponge the background. I cut the balloons from the SSS Celebrate dies and the Happy Birthday is from the SSS Birthday Messages which I stamped with versamark ink and used white embossing powder, and heat set, added some little sparkly silver pen for the dots and strings. The little border is from Lawn Fawn Stitched hillside borders, I just wanted to have some ground for the dog to sit on.

I stamped the dog again in grey ink on the inside, and added another sentiment from 

Birthday Messages.

Well that's all from me, jump over to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog for the Happy Birthday Challenge, they have some fantastic store vouchers to be won.

Thanks so much for visiting me today, and I really appreciate all your lovely comments, they make my day.
