Roberto’s Rascals Creepy Crawlies

Posted in CC Designs, Copic, Uncategorized by

Hey everyone, today I have a DT project for C.C. Designs. I used one of the August release stamps Roberto’s Rascals Creepy Crawlies, and the coordinating dies! I stamped the image on my Copic X-press it blending card and coloured it up with my copics.

On a piece of white cardstock I cut out the largest Layering Tags Die and inked a fun background on it, punched a whole at the top and stamped a sentiment from the Robertos Rascals Monster Mash set to finish this tag.

Now jump over to the C.C. Designs store and grab these halloween goodies for yourself! I made 18 of these for my sons Halloween goodies for his classmates this year.

Candi Bean Shaker.jpg

Hey everyone! Today I have a fun shaker card to share with you all. I just love the versatility of the Fancy Squares & Little Things Die from Creative basics for making things like shaker cards they layer together perfectly for a thick enough frame to make them super easy to hide the foam tape behind!

I coloured up this little lady from the Candibean  Blossom Girls stamp set with my copic markers and fussy cut her out then attached her to the front of this card as the perfect little image for it. I love this little ladies!

Pure Prairie Bouquet

Posted in Copic, Power Poppy, Uncategorized by

Hey everyone! Today I get to share with you my first ever Design Team post for Power Poppy, I have loved these flower stamps since I discovered them about a year ago. Needless to say I as over the moon when I was asked to take a DT position with them.

Now before we get into the new bouquet, remember to stop by the Power Poppy blog tomorrow to see the new Clear stamps being released!

PP Prairie Bouquet

I zoomed in and cropped out a part of the Pure Prairie Bouquet to use for my card, I flipped the image so the butterfly faced the opposite direction. I didn’t do any research for proper colours for anything, just, as I usually do, grabbed whatever I thought looked pretty. Unfortunately I couldn’t get the background to photograph the way it really is, the camera is leaving it a way harsher line around the yellow, where in real life it slowly fades out into the white and you don’t see that sharp transition.

Don’t forget to go to the Power Poppy Blog and see all the awesomeness the team created with this image!

Garden Marci

Hey everyone! today I have another DT project for Quick Creations! I coloured up Garden Marci with my copic markers. I am sorry but I didn’t write down the colours used on this one.

Garden Marci 2

I have been a little hooked on the Bo Bunny Calendar Girl paper pad, the floral in there is to die for! Just a few simple layers of pattern paper some Wild Orchid Crafts Flowers and a twine bow finishes off the front of this fairly simple card.

Blossom Girls

Posted in Copic, LDRS Creative, Uncategorized by

Candi Bean

Hey everyone! Today I have a CAS card to share with you all! I used the Candibean Blossom Girls. I made masks for the two girls infront by stamping them on masking paper and fussy cutting them out. I used a scrap piece of paper to plan out how far apart they would be stamped, I then stamped the girls in front on my Copic Xpress-it blending card and then added their mask and stamped the girls in behind.

I coloured them up with my copic markers and cut the pannel down to 5 1/4″ x 3 7/8″ and then layered a pink and blue cardstock in behind and added it all to an A2 size cardbase.
