Snuggles and Cuddles

Today my card is created using the newly released stamp called Snuggles & Cuddles. This Panda and her little one is absolutely adorable! Did you know that a Panda can spend 14-16 hours a day eating bamboo? Just a fun fact for you!!

As soon as I saw this image I knew my paper choice had to be back and red! I used paper from American Crafts "Amy Tangerine Sketchbook" and Kaiserkraft's "Shaken Not Stirred" collections. A red bow, black button and some matching enamel dots finished off my card.

Easter Card #4

Howdy!

I'm back with another Easter card to share with you! This time I am using the Art Impressions image called Joyful Kate (sku#4112). I just love her and the word joyful just makes me happy! It makes me think what I am joyful for..... I am joyful for Spring, warmer weather and of course all my family and friends bring me get joy!

I made 3 cards using Joyful Kate. I wanted to try making another stair step card and used a tutorial from Splitcoast stampers. I love that site and their tutorials are always so easy to follow and most of the time has a video to show you how as well. I used paper from the Bella Blvd. Simply Spring collection. It's super cute and the colours are so fun and bright! The image is on the larger side so I fussy cut her out so you can still see the paper. I just did a bunch of layering with my papers, added ribbon from my stash and a few die cuts on the stair step card. Of course some tickles on her flower. The sentiment is from High Hope Stamps and is called Easter Greetings.

Emilee & Lola

Hi everyone!

Today is my day to post for the High Hopes Stamp DT. I am showing you one of the super cute new images that will be available March 19th! I am using the new stamp called Emilee and Lola. Oh my goodness who doesn't love a little girl with her teddy, wagon and puppy!

I coloured Emilee & Lola with my Copic Sketch markers. I framed the image with a Lacey Square die cut from Spellbinders. This paper is from the American Crafts "Welcome Spring" 6x6 paper pad. I added some lace, ribbon and clear Wink of Stella gel pen to all the flowers. To define the paper I also inked all the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink by Tim Holtz.
