Sweet Day Week - Day 3

Hello!  

Amy here with a card to "sweeten" you up!  The Sweet Day set is so perfect for those summer birthdays, celebrations, and just because moments.

I've paired this set with rainbow color a for a bright, happy birthday card.  My background was done using the Slimline Borders Elle-ments.  Each "cloud" was die cut and inked with Broken China Distress Ink and then pieced back together.  A grassy border, done with the same Slimline Borders Elle-ments, was added at the bottom.  The adorable ice cream truck, from Sweet Day, and bunny was Copic colored, die cut, and added with foam adhesive.  For the sentiment, the Hooray Elle-ments was diecut and then Copic colored with a sentiment banner addition.

Supplies:

Sweet Day Week - Day 2

Hi all! Today I want to share my card for Avery Elle featuring Sweet Day. This stamp set is super adorable and can be used to create an ice cream truck scene.

Avery Elle supply that I'm using :
Sweet Day Clear Stamps for the images and sentiment
Sweet Day Elle-ments to die cut the images
Slimline Borders Elle-ments to die cut the background line

I stamp, color the images using copic then die cut it. The sentiment is from white embossing powder. To color the background, I'm using dye ink pad with blending tool then splash watercolor with a brush.

Thank you so much for stopping by and happy crafting!

Hugs,

Sweet Day Week - Day 1

Hi there.  Caryn here today with a card using the cute-as-can-be Sweet Day stamp set and dies.  I love the way Elena illustrated this set with the cute critters and all the different ways to "dress up" the van.

I stamped the images and coloured them Copics in pastel "ice-cream" shades to compliment the theme.   

Instead of using inks for the background I decided to pull out some patterned papers from the Spring Collection Paper Pad and use dies to build up a scene.  I used the grassy border from the Slimline Borders die set and the rectangle layer die from Easy Layers set.   Using papers in this way is a great technique for adding texture and interest in a different way.

To finish I stamped the sentiment onto a strip of white card and added some glitter highlights here and there.

Flamazing Week - Day 4

Hi Everyone! Today I'm sharing Flamazing! Such a cute set!

I stamped, die cut and colored the fun little flamingo snorkeling. Then I stamped the island and sun on colored cardstock. This is a fun way to add color without a lot of work. I added a few quick highlights with ink and markers. Next, I die cut the frame and heat embossed the sentiment. I added a few details with the wave and splashes to finish the card. 

I love how this card turned out! I hope the flamingo is enjoying his island vacation. *wink*

Hi there!

Elena here with a card featuring Flamazing:

This flamingo really cracks me up! I love how quirky he is, all dressed up for snorkeling. I did some ink-blending in the background, with yellow and pink inks, and built my scene in front of it. I brought in the sand mound and island time sign from Island Time, and added a speech bubble from Speech Bubbles to house the sentiment. I love it when multiple sets work together so well!

I hope you like it, and have a flamazing day!

I stamped all four critters and colored them with Copics. Next, I die cut circles from a white card panel, then colored the panel with Distress Oxides and adhered the critters in the back. Then I added the paws and a few party elements from Unicycle. I finished the card with the Hooray die cut!

Hey everyone! Heather here.

Do you ever get a stamp set and just know exactly what you're going to do with it? That's what happened to me with this Circle Critter Tag stamp set. I just knew I wanted to create a pattern out of these little animals. 

To create my card, I stamped all of the images on a single layer. Then, I colored them all in and added a sentiment. Super easy and I love how it turned out. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Oh Snap! Week - Day 5

Hi Everyone! It's such a fun week and I'm happy to be sharing the mini stamp set Oh Snap. 

I created lots of layers this week, one of my favorite techniques. With so many fun dies out there the options are endless. Today I used Easy Layers 1 die set. The white mat was cut out using the largest die in the set. I splattered it with pink ink. The small splatters were flicked on and the large splatters were dropped on. I love the two splatter sizes to add to the party look. 

I added to the layers by die cutting the banner twice, once in blue and once in kraft. The grass edge was created by using the Slimline Boarders dies. Next, I stamped, die cut and colored the alligator. I heat embossed the sentiments next, one from Critter Circle Tags , the other from Oh Snap Stamps. "Oh Snap" is outlined with Speech Bubbles. The final layer I added were the felt stars. I've been loving felt lately and the texture it adds to cards.

Oh Snap! Week - Day 4

Hello everyone! It's Heather here and I'm back with an Oh Snap card. I love this little mini. It's so stinking fun and perfect to whip up a good birthday card. 

For my card, I used the new Easy Layers 1 die to create the perfect backdrop. Then, I stamped, die cut and colored in my alligator. 

I love how the die comes with inner confetti dies. I just die cut the confetti with white cardstock and colored it in with a marker. 

That's it for me today! Thanks for stopping by!

Oh Snap! Week - Day 3

Hello!  Amy here with a Hooray!  Let's celebrate a birthday!!! 

I've paired the adorable mini stamp set, Oh Snap,  with the new HOORAY Elle-ments for a simple birthday card.  Spun Sugar Distress Ink was blended in the center of a white notecard.  The Star Frame Elle-ments was die cut from light pink cardstock and layered over the ink blended background.  This panel was die cut using the Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments.

The word HOORAY was ink blended with Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron Distress Inks and was added to the die cut stitched panel just above a 1/8" strip of black cardstock.  The sentiment was stamped in black ink below.  The alligator was Copic colored, die cut, and added to the Star Frame with foam adhesive.  To finish, a few tiny clear gems were added randomly to the stars on the Star Frame.

Oh Snap! Week - Day 2

Hello friends, 

Katie here popping in with a card featuring the new Oh Snap stamp set, Hooray Elle-ments die and Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments die. 

I just adore this snappy crocodile. He's so festive and we have lots of celebrations planned for this summer. To make the card, I die cut a panel of Neenah Solar White card stock with the large stitched die from the Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments set. Next, I blended the die cut panel with two shades of Distress Oxide inks- Worn Lipstick and Dried Marigold. I spattered the panel with white ink and set it aside to dry. 

I stamped the crocodile with black ink, colored him with Copic Markers, and die cut the image using the coordinating Elle-ments die. I blended a small rectangle of Distress Heavystock with more Distress Oxide Inks- Worn Lipstick, Dried Marigold, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron and Salvaged Patina. I die cut the Hooray Elle-ments from the blended panel. 

I adhered the Hooray die cut at the bottom of the large blended panel and set the crocodile on top of the die cut. I pulled out the Speech Bubble stamp set and created a speech bubble to hold the "It's Your Birthday" sentiment. I added a few flat star sequins and attached the completed panel to an A2 card base.

Luau Party Week- Day 5

Hi there!  Caryn here today with a card that pretty much screams SUMMER IS HERE!!  

I used the super-cue Luau Party stamp set to create a sweet little beach scene complete with hula-ing critters and a sunny, rainbow backdrop!

I coloured the images with Copics and added some shimmer to the lights and torches.  I don't know about you but I just want to go set up a campfire on the beach, drink cocktails and dance around in a hula skirt!!!!

Luau Party Week - Day 4

Hello friends, 

Katie here with a card to share featuring the adorable Luau Party clear stamps. First I stamped the images and colored them with Copic Markers. Once everything was colored in, I cut the stamped images using the coordinating Elle-ments dies. 

For the background, I blended Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide inks onto a panel of Ranger Heavystock. I spattered the panel with water and blotted the water droplets with a paper towel to create the ink-lift effect. 

After I adhered the images in place, I stamped the movement lines near the hula dancers, music notes and sentiment with black ink. I used a white gel pen to add some details to the flowers and highlights to the stamped images. This set makes for such a fun party scene. I will definitely be reaching for it time and again!

Luau Party Week - Day 3

Hello!  Amy Kolling here with some tropical fun!

Creating a scene can sometimes be hard.  I've created a simple background using strips of cardstock and an ink blended panel to create a festive backdrop for my Luau Party critters!

Tip:  Use those cardstock scraps and cut 1/4" strips in the color palette of your choice over an ink blended background.  Distress Oxide inks work well with Bristol smooth cardstock along with splatters of the same color!

Using the Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments, the ink blended panel (done with Salvaged Patina) was die cut along with the stitched sentiment banner.  These little Luau critters were Copic colored and added with foam adhesive over the strips of cardstock which serve to "ground" the scene.
