Hoppy Easter!

Hi Ai Fans!

Today I am using a set of stamps from the new Art Impressions Holiday 2016 release called "Hoppy Easter". These little Bunnies are so sweet and what a great value the set is! You get 6 images and 3 sentiments in the set! Doesn't get better than that for value does it??

I decided to create a side step card for my post and create a little Easter Egg Hunt theme! 

Copics used:

Bunnies: E31, E33, E35, R20

Chick: Y13, Y15, Y17, YR02, YR04

Eggs & Jackets: Y11, Y13, Y15/ R81, R83, R85/ V22, V25, V28/ YG03, YG05, YG07/ B01, B02, B04

You still have time to enter into our Current Challenge over on the Art Impression Blog. The theme is  "House and Home". All You need to do is use that theme in your  creation.

Happy Stamping!

House and Home Challenge

Hi Ai Fans!

It's the second week of the Ai Challenge called

I am using the new Ai "Cottage Set & Die". You can kind of see the "Good Friends" set if you peek in the windows. I love the way the 2 sets can go together or you could use them alone.

I decided to create my own background rather than use Designer papers. I made the sky using a template I have shown before (Click Here.) I die cut out a fence and grass from MFT Die-namic dies. Then I made a frame with the MFT Stitched Rectangles and using some foam tape popped it up on top of my background and stamped image. I added the sentiment from the "Good Friends" set to my frame and then glued it to a piece of paper from my scrap stash.

 

The Cottage set has a little die in it that will cut out the door and part of the windows! It's so easy and super cute!

I also used the die to cut through my Design paper and the card base so that the chairs scene from the "Good Friends" set would show through the window.

Copics used:

Roof: E07, E08, E09

Stones & Chimney: T1, T3, T5, T7

Siding: YG61, YG63

Door, window & accents: YG67, G28

Door knob: R37, gold wink of stella

Chairs: R81, R83, R85

Dog & cat: E43, E44 / T3, T5, T7

Flowers: R83, R85, R89

Leaves: YG63, YG67

Polaroid Buddies!

Hi!

Today I wanted to Share with you a card I made for One Crazy Stamper using the High Hopes Stamp image called "Peeking Spring Buddies"! Easter is just around the corner and this stamp makes the perfect Easter card!

I like love spring papers and the Echo Park "Spring" 6x6 collection is so cute! I love the pastel shades! I decided to use my MFT Die-namics Precious Polaroid die on this card. I also embossed the frames with my Polka dot embossing folder. A bit of lace and enamel dots and it's complete!

I like to sometimes try to use my stamps in different ways. The original "Peeking Spring Buddies" has the 3 characters in a row. I inked up each character separately and stamped them on a scrap piece of paper. Then if there was any ink spots I used my liquid paper to "erase" them.  I photocopied the images onto Copic paper, coloured them and cut them out. Now I can add them to the frames. Sometimes when you "think outside the box" it opens up more uses for your stamps!

I popped the bunny paper and each polaroid image up with foam squares for added dimension!

On the inside I used the High Hopes "Easter Greetings" sentiment.

Copics Used:

Bunny: T0, T1, T3, R11, BG11, BG32, R83, R85, YG23, YG25, Y17, white gel pen(polka dots)

Chick: Y11, Y13, Y15, Y17, Y38, BG11, R11

Duck: Y000, Y00, Y02, YR02, YR04, R11
