Art Impressions "Kate"

Happy Friday!

Well I've been busy making Easter cards this week! I decided to showcase these cards for my Friday post over at Art Impressions. Today I am using the sweet image called Kate (sku 4113). Kate is so cute and makes a really adorable Easter card.


I made 2 versions of Kate using paper from the Bella Blvd. Simply Spring Collection and the Doodlebug Easter Parade collection. Kate looks so cute coloured and paper pieced with the bright colours in these collections!
 

On the inside of my card I used the Ai Easter basket (sku#4117) and the Basketful (sku#4017) sentiment. Art impressions has tons of Easter stamps! Head on over and check them out.


I fussy cut out Kate's image and then paper pieced her dress and headband.
Copics used:
Fur: W0, W1, W3
Ears & Cheeks: R20
Sweater: G40, G43, G46
Flower: V12, V15, V17, YR14
Inside of card:
Basket: E43, E44, E47
Eggs: R81, Y11, YG61, BV00, B000

Vintage Vibe!

Hello Ai Fans

Today is a brand new release day over at Art Impression Stamps! Ai has a new line called Ai Vintage, which as the name states are "vintage" images. Today I am using the Bathing Suit Set (sku#4589). They are so cute and will go perfectly with all the vintage papers on the markets these days!


I tried to make the card look vintage as well. I inked the edges of all the papers with Tim Holtz Distress ink  in Vintage Photo. I also added a doily, lace and some pearls to add to the vintage vibe. This time instead of totally colouring the whole image, I paper pieced the tops and one bowler a change and to match the papers.


 Copics Used:
Skin: E00, E11, R20, RV25, B91, BG11
Hair: E43, E44, E47
Green parts: YG91, YG93, YG95
Rose parts: R20, R21, R22
Beige parts: E50, E51, E53
Ground: E30, E31, E33, E35
outline shadow B000
Shoes: W3

 Inside of the card

I love the sentiment inside. It comes with the Bathsuit Suit set. Ai always has such funny sentiments!
Today also starts a new Challenge called Vintage Vibe. We want to see your vintage inspired work. 

It would be so much fun to have you play along with us!
Happy Stamping!

Easter Greetings!

Hello Everyone!

Today is my day to post over on the High Hopes Stamps Blog. I decided to get another Easter card made as Easter is just around the corner. It seems early this year so I need to get busy creating! This card showcases the super cute Bunny with Tulip and the sentiment Blessed Easter Script. 


The paper I used is from my stash so I don't think it's available anymore (sorry). I'm trying to use up what I have instead of buying more (Hubby's idea LOL). The design of this card is really simple, just a few die cuts, ribbon and Stickles.
Simple inside of card!


Copics Used:
Bunny: E50, E51, E53
Inside of ears: R20, R21
Nose & eyes: Black Sakura gel pen
Pads on feet: W0, W1, W3
Bow: RV23, RV25, RV29, stickles
Tulip: Y15, Y18
Leaves: YG06, YG07
Flower pot: B02, YR12, YR15
Around image: B000
Ground: W0, W1

Don't forget you  have all month to enter in the Challenge "anything goes" over on the HH Blog!
Have a great day and chat at you later!
