I love you

I love you 1

 

Hey everyone! I am here with another card that would work for any love occasion or for Valentines day. I am really happy with the simplicity of this card.

I love you 2

 

I layered DCWV Adhesive Fabric to a piece of scrap cardstock. I absolutely adore the way the versafine ink and the sharpie pen bleed out ever so slightly in the fabric. The faux stitched lines were done with a ruler and a sharpie pen.

The Serendipity 6×6 pad (that I received in my colour add on from the hip kit) had the perfect pink patters to die cut the hearts from the Film and Polaroid die from The Greeting Farm, I then free handed a double outline around it.

I love you 3

Super Pig Birthday

Posted in Cards, Masculine Cards by

Parker the pig 1

Hey everyone! I have a 4 year old son, that is by every definition of the word a super hero addict, seriously its insane all the stuff he knows about them. Anyway, back on point when I saw this set from Stamping Bella how could I not get it!

I kept this card very simple, I coloured the super pig with copics and used the sentiment included on the set. The papers I used were from the Bo Bunny Surprise collection. The blue ribbon across the center is from my stash, I do beleive I picked it up at Dollarama here in canada. The black cardstock is out of my scrap bin I would guess it is American Crafts left over from a layout.

Valentines Card 2015

Kraftin Kimmie vday

 

Hey everyone! Back again this time with a fun Valentines Day card I made using Kraftin Kimmie Stamps image I {heart} you. This one was fun using watercolour to colour the image. The white spots on the image were added using Golden Heavy body acrylic in Titanium White.

I then decided using my Hip Kit colour add on for the month of January would work perfect for this card. I tinted my Golden light molding paste using the Avery Elle Mint to be inkpad that is included in the kit, and doesn’t the Hero Arts for Basic Grey stecil just work ever so perfect! The mint coloured twine is from my stash and I am almost out of it so I am unsure of who the manufacturer is, if I had to guess I would guess The Twinery.

Bear Birthday

Posted in Cards, Masculine Cards by

Paper smooches bear 1

 

Sometimes cute and simple just works for me. I love this little bear from the Paper Smooches Chubby Chum Pals stamp set. I kept it simple and just coloured him in with my Prismacolour Pencils on Neenah Desert Storm kraft cardstock.

Paper Smooches bear 2

 

The white dots put on the image were done with a Golden Titanium white heavy body acrylic paint. I die cut that panel with the Lawn Fawn small stitched rectangles dies, I left the die in place and inked it with distress ink then wrapped the twine around the bottom. I layered a panel of vellum behind the image over top of the birthday paper from the Bo Bunny Surprise collection.

Bike Kid Boy Card

Bike Kid 1

 

Hey everyone, sometimes simple is the way to go, especially when it comes to male cards. The flowers and lace and all the pretty layers just feel off if I try to make them work.

Bike Kid 2

This image is rather large so I stuck to just a few simple patterned papers backed with black cardstock, I always seem to find myself reaching for black when it comes masculine cards. The sentiment is just a simple messages on the inside of the card.

CC Designs Birthday

Hello everyone, over Christmas I was on a colouring kick. Probably because there was a ton of family at my house, so in the evening when everyone was relaxing watching tv and movies I was colouring. (That also means I do not have a list of the copics used.)

CC Designs 2

 

This lovely image has been in my stash or a long time without being used. I now regret not playing with her sooner! I kept this card very simple a little paper, some cardstock scraps and that’t all there is to it.

Saturated Canary Birthday

SC Bday 1

Hey ya’ll, isn’t she just the sweetest thing ever!!! I love this rubber stamp from Saturated Canary!

SC Bday 2

 

This is probably the simplest card I have ever created, but I really do not think it needed anything else. That is correct, no twine, no enamel dots, no sequins.

Saturated Canary – Balloon Wishes

Memento Tuxedo Black

Again, unfortunately I did not keep track of the colours I used on this image, but I promise I have been keeping track and most of the cards you see in the future will have a list of the colours I used.

I would also like to pass along that the paper I use for colouring with my copics is the Copic x-press it blending card.

Make a wish PS

Hey everyone! Back today with another sweet little card. I have always loved this stamp set from Lawn Fawn, I have used it over and over again, and still continue to love it.

Make a wish PS 2

 

There is no patterned paper on this card, which has been one of my favorite things it seems lately. Ink and white paper seems to keep very happy, probably considering the abundance of colouring mediums I have in my possession.

Going to the Chapel

Posted in Cards by

DSC_0047

Here I went again using some patterned paper, I have some seriously ancient paper pads in my stash. This is an old DCWV paper pad, I have had it for ages, all the patterned paper and the flocked flower stickers came from that paper pad. (I can not remember the name of the pad if you would like to know just leave me a comment and I will find the name of it for you.

DSC_0049I really did love those flocked flowers, and I think they look very classic on this card. I also used red and black cardstock (I believe they are Bazzil Cardshoppe cardstock) just to add to the richness of the card.

The sentiment was embossed with black embossing powder and the stamp it’s self is a CC Designs set called Wedding Labels.

Graphic 45 Birthday card

Posted in Cards by

DSC_0066

So a while ago I was thinking about how I have been been making so many cards lately, but yet I have used virtually no patterned paper. If you know me at all through twitter, or when I use to do Ustream shows, you would know that I have a ridiculous amount of patterned paper. So I went digging and pulled out some of my old patterned paper, this is a graphic 45 8×8 pad, I can’t remember off hand what collectons I used, but if you really want to know I will dig around and find out for you.

DSC_0067I did a bunch of different layers of paper on here, I used the small banner punch for the banner along the top, the lace punch along the bottom is a Martha Stewart punch.

DSC_0068

Making this card, reminded me why I love patterned paper, the simplicity of using nothing but patterned paper and a simple Happy Birthday stamp set. I guess that means I need to keep making more cards and try and get through some of the paper I have, that should only take me 5-10 years haha!
