Senior-Ita Beverly

Today I am sharing with you a card I designed for my Saturday post over at One Crazy Stamper. I am using 
the Stamping Bella image called "Senior-Ita Beverly".  


I took a pre-made 6 x 5.5" card and cut a border down the right hand side. I decided to use paper from the Echo Park Sunny Days Ahead 6x6 paper collection. I layered my papers and corner punched just the right hand sides as well as all sides on the image layers. I paper pieced the umbrella with coordinating Design Paper from the  6x6 pad. I am addicted to enamel dots and Wink of Stella so of course I had to use those on my card as well!



The sentiment comes with the stamp set.


Copics used:
Skin: E00, E11, R20
Jacket: R21, R22, R24
Polka dots and pants: BG11, BG13, BG15
Puddle and drops: BG0000, BG000/ clear wink of stella
Shoes and umbrella handle: silver wink of stella

I hope that you will enter into OCS's current "Anything Goes" Challenge! I'd love to see what you come up with!
Happy crafting!

Birthday Hat set!

Hi everyone!

Happy Friday everyone! Today is my turn to post on the Art Impressions Blog! I am sharing a card with you made using the Art Impressions Birthday Hat set (#4373) This Lady just cracks me up every time I look at her! She is just so pleased with herself and her outfit!


I used a pre-made 4x5.5" card and when you add the decorative frame it turns out to be a 6x5.5" card! I decided to paper piece her dress in matching paper. I am in love with the yellow, grey and black colour combinations that you see a lot of these days! The Authentique  Classique Beauty 6x6 pad is full of these colours! It's become one of my favourite paper collections!


The sentiment on the inside comes with the stamp set.


 Copics Used:
Skin: E00, E11, R20, RV17
Hair: E23
Yellows: Y21, Y26
Greys: C0, C1, C3

I added Diamond Stickles to the cake and some silver Wink of Stella on her jewellery, shoes, purse and cake.

Don't forget to enter into our current  Challenge over on the Ai Blog called "Lovely Ladies".

It's always fun to visit the  Ai online store , I could spend hours there looking at all the stamps! Why don't you head on over and see what's available?

Happy Stamping!

Gabriel's A Border!

Another new release image!

Oh my goodness, this High Hopes Stamps new release is so exciting! Last week we did "sneak peeks" but now all the images are live in the High Hopes Stamps online store! I am loving all of the stamps aren't you? Today I am sharing with you "Gabriel's A Border". I just love this guy and you can see the pure happiness on his face from his smile! He kind of reminds me of my Nephew so I'll likely be giving this card to him at Christmas!


One of my favourite Winter colour schemes is blue and brown so I knew I had to make this card using Bo Bunny's Powder Mountain collection! It's an older collection but perfect for this card. I coloured Gabriel with my Copic Sketch markers in colours to coordinate with the design papers. 


On the inside I used a stamp from the Sentiment Set #1 (U500) and embossed the inked image with clear embossing powder.

Copics used:
Skin: E00, E11, R20
Hair: E43, E44, E47
Blue items: B91, B93, B95, B97
Grey items: C1, C3, C5
Beige items: E30, E31, E33
Air swooshes: B000


I used these ticket stubs from my stash and added a triple looped bow to them. I also added some small flower sequins to the image to look like snowflakes.
