Vintage Babes!

Happy Saturday!

It's the weekend.....yippeeeee! Today I am sharing with you a card I made for OCS using the Art Impressions stamp set called "Bathing Suit Set". This is such a cute set with a vintage vibe to it!


I tried to stay with the vintage vibe when I chose my papers and embellishments. I decided on paper from the Teresa Collins You Are My Happy 6x6 collection. Using Antique photo Distress ink, I edged all my papers to help them stand out. I also added a peach coloured doily, some lace and pearls. Of course my best friend clear Wink of Stella came along on the hats, and different parts on each ladies suits.


Here's the inside of my card. I love the sentiment, it cracks me up! I think it might be my new motto LOL!


Copics Used:
Skin: E00, E11, R20, R35

Stayin' Afloat

Hi!
Happy Friday! I wanted to share this card with you using the Art Impressions Girlfriends Stayin Afloat set (#4239). I've had this set for awhile now but with summer here I thought it was the perfect time to get it out and create a fun card. Plus I was inspired as I was floating around myself in our pool yesterday!


The layout is simple with only one patterned paper from the Echo Park Sweet Summertime 6x6 collection and some matching cardstock. I added a bow and some lime enamel dots in the corners that I had cut with my concave punch. I added white polka dots to one of the swimsuits and on another suit I added some criss cross lines with my Copic marker. Of course the two friends with matching coloured suits have Clear Wink of Stella. On the girl's sunglasses I used a Black gel pen.
All the floaty tubes have Glossy Accents on them as well.


The Stayin Afloat set comes with 3 sentiments! I just love this one LOL!


Copics Used:
E00, E11, E43, E44, E47
Y02, Y04, Y05,Y06, Y07, Y08, Y21
YR02, YR04, YR07, YR21, YR23

Aged To Perfection!

Hello Ai Fans!
Today starts the second Challenge week over on the Art Impressions Blog called "In with the new"! You know that stamp you bought recently for that one project you haven't made yet.....? Well now is the perfect chance to use it! This challenge is all about using your newest stamp in a creation! I'm using my new set that you can only get at Michaels called Wine Diva's. The set comes with 2 images and 6 sentiments all in clear rubber.


 I chose papers from Penny Black's Painted Blooms 6x6 collection. I also am using my newest die from MFT called Zig Zag Stitched Ovals. I decided to paper piece the arm chair and coloured the rest with my Copic Sketch markers. A bit of Tim Holtz Distress ink in Antique photo on all my paper edges helped to make everything "pop"! 


I love the sentiments that come with this set! The die on the inside is called "Sweetheart Border" by Cottage Cutz.


Copics Used:
Skin: E00, E11, R20, RV17
Hair: E42, E43, E44, E47
Dress & Headband: R02, R21, R22
