Rainbow In Your Heart!

Hi!

I needed to add to my "stash" of Sympathy Cards. Although I like making any kind of card, I hate having to give a sympathy card away because it means someone has lost a special person. I know that the "Pansy Window Box Frame" from High Hopes Stamps will brighten up the recipients day and let them know that I am thinking of them!

I stamped my image onto Copic friendly paper and coloured it in using my Copic Sketch markers. Next I cut the image out using my Brother Cut N scan and hand cut out the inside of the window. I added the rainbow paper into the window and popped my image up with foam squares for added dimension. Some lace, ribbon and gems finish off my card today.

I used more of the rainbow paper from the Honey Bee "Spring Lullaby" 6x6 collection on the inside and added the HH sentiment called "Rainbow In Your Heart".

Copics Used:

B60, B63, B66

RV63, RV66, RV69

YG00, YG01, YG03, YG17

Y31, Y35, Y38

Family Time!

Hello!

Yesterday here in Canada we celebrated "Family Day".  What's more "family" than a tub full of adorable piggies?!! This stamp from High Hopes is called "Good Clean Fun". This adorable family just makes me giggle! It also reminds me of my first home over 30 years ago. Our house was on older home and we had a clawfoot tub just like this. Reminds me so much of my girls bathing together when they were small!

I chose papers from the Craft Consortium Bright Blooms 6x6 collection. The flowered pattern reminds me of the  old wallpaper that was in our bathroom. After stamping my image onto some Copic friendly paper, I coloured in "Good Clean Fun" with my Copic markers. I also decided to use some Vintage Photo Distress Ink on all my paper edges to match the vintage feel of the tub. Some ribbon, a bow and enamel dots finish off my card.

On my decorated inside I used the Sentiment from High Hopes called "Filled With Bubbles". Such a perfect sentiment for this stamp!

Copics Used:

Piggies: R30, R32, W8

Shower cap: RV52, RV55, RV09

Tub: C00, C0, C1, C2, C3

Bubbles: B0000, BG000, B60, B63

Gone Fishing!

Happy Tuesday!

Brrrrr..... it's been cold here lately but that works out perfect for ice fishing! Some of the lakes and rivers have frozen over and the Winter fishing enthusiasts are out trying to catch fish! "Fishing with Grandpa" from High Hopes Stamps makes a perfect card to celebrate those winter fishermen!

I stamped my image and sentiment onto Copic friendly paper and then coloured them in with my Copic Sketch markers. Next using a Stitched Octagon die, I cut them both out. My papers today are from the Honey Bee "Great Outdoors" 6x6 collection. I added some Liquid Appliqué to the fur trim on their outfits and let it dry. Then using my heat gun, I heated up the Liquid Appliqué. It bubbles up and I thought it looked cute for fur! A bit of twine with a bow finish off my card. 

I used the "Gone Fishing Sign'" sentiment also from High Hopes Stamps. It goes perfectly with this stamp don't you think?!

Copics Used:

Skin: E00, E21, E11, R20

Outfits: E53, E55, E57, E59/ BG93, BG96, BG99/ W3, W5, W6

Mitts: R37, R59, R89, YR18, YR27

Snow: B0000, B000, B00, Copic 0

Sick Ollie!

Hi!

Poor "Sick Ollie" from High Hopes .... he's feeling a bit under the weather. Ollie is all snuggled in his favourite blanket and tissues are nearby! I hope he feels better soon!

I reorganized my craft room last week and found a bunch of my embossing folders in a drawer. You know the old "out of sight, out of mind" saying. I promised myself the next card I made, I would use one. I thought this heart folder was perfect for Ollie as I am not only sending get well wishes but love as well. I stamped my image onto Copic friendly paper and coloured it in with my Copic Markers. Next using a Gina Marie Double Roped die, I cut out Ollie. I love the clean and simple design of this card. The Sentiment is also from High Hopes and is called "Get Well Soon 2". Just a hint of blue cardstock, some white polka dots and Stickles on the tissues finish off my card today

Copics Used:

Giraffe: YR23, YR24, YR27, E35, E37, W4, W5, W7

Blanket: B24, B26, B28, B39, white gel pen

Tissues & Box: B60, B63/ R29, Y35, Y38, B28
