Happiness

Hello crafty friends!

A couple weeks ago Nancy posted a wonderful "curl" any surfer would love to ride.
She gave me the idea to use this "woody" with some waves. 


The sand is a wallpaper sample, sort of grassy.
The stamp used was Happiness Comes in Waves
I made a kind of beach wall with a brick embossing folder.
 

The waves have texture paste and then Stickles.

Thanks for visiting today!

Mom

Hi Everyone,

Now that I'm done with my Easter cardmaking, I thought I would move on to the next holiday for giving cards, Mother's Day!

To celebrate mom, I used the Flower Scroll stamp that was still on my stamping table from a previous card to create a pattern on my card base.  

The panel was created using both the Splatter Background, and the Easy Dot Background stamps, and I added a punched flower border to match the daisy theme.  A ribbon was added before attaching it to the base.  

One Medium Daisy Bloom was colored and die cut and the other was fussy cut and attached, and some glitter glue was added to the flower centers for some shine. 



Finally, I stamped and punched out the Happy Mother's Day using a scallop punch to once again match up with the flower theme. 

Hope your day is filled with sunshine and flowers!
Karin



 

   
 

Are You Cured Yet?

 

While cleaning up my craft room, I came across this emboss folder and thought oh...it looks like a blanket. Well, I just had to use it for a card and thought this image was perfect for it.

For the card:

  • I stamped LEONARD PIG SICKDAY BLUES - 1019G and colored the image up with copics.
  • Next, I stamped just a portion of the CURED YET? GREETING - 1015E sentiment. This is my way of stretching my stamps. I love using just portions of them.
  • I then cut down the layers and popped the sentiment up on dimensionals.
  • I finished the card with a few scattered buttons.
Thank you for stopping by to check out my card this week. I hope you have a fun crafty week.

   
 

Easter Trio

Hello Crafty Friends,



Easter is a week away and I have some last-minute card ideas for you today.



My first card is a fun one that was inspired by THIS cute card done by Cristena who is the Featured Stamper at Splitcoaststampers.com this week. 

I water-colored the sky and background grass and stamped the Brush Pussy Willow and painted them as well. Then I stamped Vicki's Versatile Background on some white paper and then cut the paper into fence posts.  I used a little leftover water-colors to add more interest and then sponged the edges with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Vintage Photo.  For the critters, I stamped the Tails Up Bunny and Easter Ears Leonard the Pig, fussy cut them, and water-colored them as well.  I removed the egg from Leonard's arms and ticked him in the fence.  My banner was a bit boring so I got the Stickles out and fixed that.  The glitter was speaking to me and I used it in a few more places as well - lol. I finished it off with a part of the 1 Line Easter Blessing Greeting

My next card features the Flower Cross Image and the Sending You Sunshine Greeting

I sketched and painted the tulips and wreath, stamped the cross and painted it, and then added in gold dots with some gold paint.  I was aiming for shabby chic so I distressed the panel with white acrylic paint and some Distress Ink.  

My last card was easier than it looks and features the Small Rejoice Greeting
I water-colored the flowers on the egg and added in Stickles to make it more festive.  I followed THIS video to learn how to do this. 

Hoping you are having a wonderful week.

Hugz, 

Nancy




   
 

Lucky

 Hello friends!


Well this is a bit different isn't it? I was trying to use a new sketch that came up on SplitCoastStampers this week but I put my own spin on it.  I used a background piece I previously made (paint, cellophane and glossy black cardstock) to start this project then cut out white squares and stamped on them just the spade part of 4 Suite Verticle.  I then arranged them on the card front in diamond shapes.  


I used letter dies by I.O. with foam under them also cut with the letter dies, to say Lucky.

I popped up the frame made with MemoryBox dies then started on the inside.


Because everything looked black and white, I decided not to color the poker 5 cards hand image.
I then stamped the Lucky In Love.

Have fun crafting today and thanks for visiting!
Robin
