Swinging Birthday!

Hi!
We have lots of friends and couples in our subdivision that love to golf! So "Swinging Sherry" and "Retired Raymond" from High Hope Stamps make the perfect birthday card to add to my stash!
I started my card by stamping my images and the "Swinging Birthday" sentiment onto Copic friendly paper. Next I coloured in the images with my Copic markers and then cut them out using my Brother Cut N Scan machine. Today's papers are from the Doodlebug "Sweet Sumer" 6x6 collection. It was kind of a dull day today, so these fun bright papers cheered me up! I added polka dots to Sherry's skirt and plaid to Raymond's pants and hat using my markers. I decided to cut the "Swinging Birthday" sentiment in half so I could place it the way that I did. I created the sky background using a MFT Cloud Stencil and some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink. Some stitched hills and a flag completed my "golf" scene.
Copics Used:
Skin: E00, E21, E95, R20
Hair: E31, E35, E37/ C5, C7
Shirley: RV55, RV17, RV19
Raymond: Y35, Y38/ YG17, YG21, YG23, YG25

Pizza!

Hello!
Today's card is another Valentine card to add to my stash! I've always loved "Luigi" from High Hopes Stamps and now it's my turn to create with this cutie! When you pair Luigi with the "Pizza My Heart" sentiment, it's just perfect for Valentine's Day!
I stamped Luigi onto some Copic friendly paper with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Then using my Copic markers, I coloured in Luigi. I used my Brother Cut N Scan to cut Luigi out and made a matching red layer behind him. The papers are form the My Minds Eye "Filled With Love" (an oldie) 6x6 collection. Some die cute hearts behind the image, fit the Valentine/Love theme.
Copics Used:

Happy Bear-day!

Happy Day To You!
One can never have enough birthday cards in their stash! I seem to go through them quickly and am always looking for an adorable image to make a birthday card with. When I saw "Sitting Party Buddy" from High Hopes Stamps, I knew I had to have him! Buddy is perfect for a girl or boy themed card or you can use it for a first birthday!
Using my MISTI, I stamped the image and the "Happy Bear-day" sentiment onto some Copic friendly paper. Next, I coloured Buddy in to match the papers in the Echo Park "Birthday Wishes" 6x6 collection. Then I used the CDD "Fancy Frames" die set to cut out all of my die cuts. I mounted Buddy and the banner die cuts with foam squares. I love the added dimension foam tape brings to your design!

Copics Used:
Bear: E31, E34, E35, E57, E79, R01, R92
Reds: R46, R29, R39
Greens: YG17, YG21, YG23, YG25, G28/ BG75, BG78
Yellows: Y35, Y38

I Love You!

Happy Tuesday!
Well Christmas and the Holiday Season are over and the next Holiday to come is Valentine's Day! I have lots of time to colour with our Province wide lockdown, and thought it was a good time to get a jump start on my Valentine cards. This rubber stamp is called "Lg. Pickles Balloon Ride" from High Hopes Stamps. I think Pickles is just way too cute!
I stamped my image onto Copic friendly paper and coloured Pickles in with my Copic Sketch Markers. I decided to stamp the "I Love You!" sentiment directly below Pickles. This is where the MISTI comes in handy for perfect placement. I added some clear glitter pen to the lip balloon for a fun look. The papers I used today are from the Echo Park "Be My Valentine" 6x6 collection. I added some ribbon, ribbon flag, button and enamel dots to finish off my card.
Copics Used:
Pig: R01, R20, R21/ W2, W5
Overalls: R27, R29, R59
Balloons: R24, R27, R29, R59/ RV52, RV55/ Yr21, YR23, YR24
Outline: B0000, B000, Copic 0
