Best Friends!

Happy Tuesday!

I don't know about you.....but I don't know what I would do without my friends!! These 2 remind me of my Bestie's and crafting buddies! Oh the fun (trouble LOL) we can get into! They always have my back and I love the support they have given to me over the years! This is the adorable High Hopes Stamps called "BFF Girls".

Today's papers are from the Echo Park "Coffee & Friends" 6x6 collection. Using alcohol friendly paper, I coloured these BFF's in with my Copic Markers, trying to match the colours in the papers.  Next I cut the image out with an MFT Stitched Rectangle die and popped it up with foam squares over the layout. I added some leaf sprigs for a bit of interest. I love this sentiment and have used it many times. It's from High Hopes as well and is called "Being A Friend".

Just A Note!

Hello! 

Sometimes you just want to send a card to let someone know you are thinking of them or to say thanks. I love this little cutie called " Laydie Buggie's Brush" from High Hopes Rubber Stamps. She's really a very versatile stamp that can be used for so many occasions! I used it to send a Valentine's Day card to a friend.  Love when you can use a stamp more than one time!

To start, I stamped my image onto Copic friendly paper and coloured this "Lady Bug" to match the papers from the Echo Park "Jack and Jill Girl" 6x6 collection with my Copic Markers. I've had this collection of papers for a while and thought they were perfect for this card. Using my Brother Cut N Scan, I cut out the image and glued it onto the card base. Love the little MFT Scalloped border and matching enamel dots! I used the HH sentiment called "Just A Note" to finish off my design.

Copics Used:

Reds: R37, R59, R89

Pinks: R81, R83, R85

Black & Greys: C1, C2, C4, C6, C7, C9

Skin: R00, R01, R20

It's A Boy!

Happy Tuesday!

I'm continuing on with an image from the Sweet Baby Re-Release over at High Hopes  called "Crawling Baby Boy". Oh my gosh, I just love his little diaper bottom! I coloured him in a onesie but you could colour just the diaper if you want!

For my card today I chose papers from the Echo Park "Hello Baby Boy" 6x6 collection. I started by stamping  my image onto Copic friendly paper and coloured him in with my Copic Sketch markers. Using my Brother Cut N Scan, I cut this cutie out leaving a white border around him. I used a Pretty Pink Posh Scallop Frame and a Circle die to pop him up over. I love the little banner dies in the corner. The HH sentiment called "It's A Boy" is perfect for this card. A few enamel dots finish off my card!

Copics Used:

Skin: E00, E21, E95

Onesie: Bg11, BG53, BG57

Bath Time!

Hello!

February started a re-release over at High Hopes Rubber Stamps! Lora opened the vault and out came the "Sweet Baby" release. I'm so glad she did as the images are all just too cute! I'm playing with the "Baby Hedgehog" and "Precious Little One" sentiment. When my kids were little bath time was a favourite, and this stamp brings back so many wonderful memories!

To start, I stamped my image onto Copic friendly paper and coloured this Baby Hedgehog to match the papers from Doodlebug's "Bundle of Joy" 6x6 collection. Next using a Gina Marie "Pierced Big & Little Circle" die, I cut out the image, sentiment and designer paper. Now it was time to glue everything down and add the adorable ribbon across the bottom. I also added some polka dots to his washcloth with a white gel pen. Some enamel dots and glitter pen on the water and bubbles finish off my card.

Copics Used:

Hedgie: E30, E31, E33, E35, E37, R21

Tub; RV52, RV55

washcloth: YG01, YG03, YG05

Water and bubbles: BG0000, BG000, BG01
