A Treat From Me To You!

Hello Ai Fans!
Todays card is such a super cool idea from Art Impressions! It's called the "Coffee Keeper" and is from the Ai Card Keepers Line!

What you do is stamp the different elements to the cup on various papers and then after fussy cutting the images out, assemble them altogether to make this adorable cup. The set comes with full instructions and is super easy to use!

When you lift up the flap it exposes your "gift"! Super cute and will make anyone smile for sure!

You get to personalize the "cup protector" by checking off what boxes you want.

For the inside I just made a sentiment on my computer.

Happy Stamping!

Tropical Santa!

Happy Tuesday!
It's Christmas in July over on the High Hopes Blog! This month the Design Team is using Christmas themed stamps for a fun twist on our designs! When I saw "Tropical Santa" I knew I had to have him! He's a man after my own heart! A beach, a cool tropical drink and the sun..... doesn't get any better than this LOL!

I decided to use papers from the Carta Bella Beach Day 6x6 collection! I used the High Hopes "Ho Ho Ho" sentiment. Can't you just hear Santa laughing "Ho Ho Ho' while he relaxes on the beach? I popped up Santa and the sentiment with some foam squares to add some dimension to my card.  I finished off my card with some lime ribbon and YNS Gumdrops.

I couldn't decide which card I like better so I am showing you both of them. This card has the added palm trees for that true beach feel!

Shopping Friends!

Hi Ai Fans!
I just love the whole Girlfriends line over at Art Impressions! This super cute set is called "Shop Set"and comes with the image and 3 matching sentiments. I can just picture this being so true for many of us! The word "Sale" and off we go running!

After colouring my image with my Copics, I cut out this cute PPP Scalloped frame to layer over top. The image is a good size so I didn't need to really add a bunch of different papers to it. Just a ribbon and bow to finish it all off! This card size is 6.5"x 5".

This sentiment that comes with the set just cracks me up!!

Copics Used:

E00, E11, E21, E31, E33, E35, E43, E44, E47, E51, E53, E55

Tons of Fun!

Hi Ai Fans!

Today I get to share with you a really cool new idea from Art Impressions! The new Stacker sets with dies. This set is called "Elephant Stacker" and I also used the "Slider die".

When I first got out the stamp set and die, I was a bit worried about how this would all work! Let me tell you it's actually quite easy! My friend Karen also has a great tutorial on how to put it all together. You can find it HERE. I thought this paper from Teresa Collins You Are My Happy 6x6 collection went perfectly with my Elephant Stackers.

I pulled out an alphabet stamp set I have and stamped "pull" on the bottom so the recipient knows what to do.

Copics used: 

Elephants: W0, W1, W2, W4, R01

Outline B0000

These cute sliders were so easy to make, I'll be getting more for sure!

Happy Stamping!
