Willow!

Hello!

I'm popping in today to share my card using the adorable "Willow" from the "Spring Fever" release over at High hopes Stamps. Isn't she so pretty?! I sure wish I could grow flowers that tall!

I started my card by stamping the image onto Copic friendly paper and coloured Willow in using my Copic Sketch markers. I decided to paper piece her dress, so I stamped her again onto my designer paper and fussy cut out the dress. My papers today are from the Kaisercraft "Sea Breeze" 6x6 collection. After cutting the image out with a Gina Marie Double Ropes Oval, I then glued her dress onto her body. The "Smell The Flowers" sentiment also from High Hopes, seemed to be perfect for this image! A splattering of gems finish off my card.

Copics Used:

Skin: E00, E01, E21, R20

Hair: W5, W7, W10

Flowers: BG45, BG49, Y35, Y38

Butterfly: RV02, RV04

Leaves & Grass: YG06, YG07, YG09

Love You More!

Happy Tuesday!

I'm in love with this stamp called "Turtle Friends"! These cuties are from the "Spring Fever" re-release over at High Hopes Stamps.  They are so versatile! I made a "love" card but you could use this for an anniversary, birthday, Valentine's Day......... the possibilities are endless!

I stamped the "Turtle Friends" onto Copic friendly paper and coloured it in with my Copic Sketch markers to match with papers from the Doodle Bug "Hello Sunshine" 6x6 collection. Then using a Gina Marie Arched Stitched Tag, I cut the image out. This tag is actually longer but using the die I cropped off part of the length. I popped both the image and "Love You" sentiment up with foam squares for dimension. All the pink flowers have some glitter pen added to them although it's hard to see in the picture. Some burlap ribbon, a triple twine bow, flower and enamel dots finish off my card.

Copics Used:

Turtles: YG05, YG07, YG17/ E21, E23, E25, E27, E29

Tree: E55, E57, E59

Happy Easter!

Hi!

Look at this cutie!!!! Meet the adorable "Garden Lamb" from the "Spring Fever" re-release over at High Hopes Stamps! I love Spring when all the plants are sprouting and baby animals are being born. That little chick is sure to be telling his friend all about hatching out of an egg LOL.

I chose papers today from the Doodle Bug "Happy Easter" 6x6 collection. After stamping my image onto Copic friendly paper, I coloured my images in using my Copic Sketch markers. Using a CDD "Fancy Frame" die, I cut my image out. I popped the image up with foam squares for added dimension. A few polka dots on the butterflies with a white gel pen make them so sweet! Ribbon and a bow finish off my card!

I decorated the inside with more of the designer papers and added the High Hopes sentiment called "Blessed Easter Script". It's always fun to decorate the card inside and adds an extra surprise for the recipient.

Copic Used:

Lamb: C00, C0, C1, C2, C3, C4/ C6, C8, C9, R01

Chick: Y21, Y23, YR23

Easter Greetings!

Hello!!

The "vault" has opened again over at High Hopes Rubber Stamps and yesterday was the start of the "Spring Fever" re-release. This image called "Bunny Hugs" is just so cute. It reminds me of myself when I was young. My Dad loved my sister and I to have long hair so I coloured this image to match. I also had a favourite pink stuffed bunny but I never had bunny ears LOL!

I decided to use a background die for my main paper today. I have so many and always forget to use them. This background die is from Lawn Fawn and is called ""Quilted Backdrop". I stamped my image onto Copic friendly paper and coloured her in with  my Copic Sketch markers. Using my Brother Cut N Scan, I cut the image out and placed her on top of the circle die that was cut from some designer paper from the Echo Park "Hello Easter" 6x6 collection. I love the handwritten look to the "Script Easter Greetings" sentiment. Some ribbon, a bow and enamel dots finish off my card today!

Copics Used:

Skin: E00, E11, E21, R20, RV29

Hair: Y21, E31, E33, E34

Outfit: BG13, BG18, BG32, BG34

Bunny: R81, R83, R85/ Y04, Y08, YR02

Fairy Special Day!

Happy Tuesday!

I always love Tuesdays because it means I'm sharing a card using an image from High Hopes Rubber Stamps. Today I got to colour up this cutie called "Fairy on a Log" from the "This & That" release.

I'm in love with these papers from the Paper Rose "Rainbows & Unicorns" 6x6 collection. I coloured my image with my Copic Sketch Markers to match my papers. Using a Gina Marie Frilly Lace Square die, I cut out the image. I thought the HH sentiment called "Fairy Special Day" was perfect for my card! I added some glitter pen to her wings and some enamel hearts to finish off my card.

Happy Easter!

Hi!

Easter is around the corner and when I saw this cutie called "Easter Gnome" from the new "This & That" release over at High Hopes Stamps, I knew I had to make a card with it! I mean it doesn't get much cuter than this! I mean look at that cutie peeking out from behind!

Today's papers are from the Echo Park "Welcome Spring" 6x6 collection. I love the pastel colours in this collection. Pastel says "spring" to me and it can't come soon enough after this long snow filled winter. I stamped the image onto Copic friendly paper and coloured "Easter Gnome" to match my paper selections. I used a Gina Marie Double Roped Circle die to cut out the coloured image and popped it up with foam tape. I love the "Egg-Stra Special" sentiment! Some enamel dots finish off my card.

Copics Used:

Gnome: E00, E11, E21/ C00, C0, C1, C3, R01, R02

Hoppin' By!

Happy Tuesday!

Just "hoppin" in to share my card today using the High Hopes stamp called "Handstand Frog". He sure is showing off his gymnastic skills LOL! This cutie is from the New Release "This & That" that started March 1st!

My card has a real simple design today with just 2 designer papers from the Polkadoodles "Splashing Around" 6x6 collection. I stamped the cute frog onto Copic friendly paper, coloured it with my Copic markers and then using a Zig Zag Oval die from MFT, cut it out. I aways like using foam tape to pop up my image as it adds dimension and interest to your card. The HH sentiment called "Just Hoppin" is perfect to use with "Handstand Frog:! A bit of twine with a bow, finish off my card.

Copics Used:

Frog: G29, G28, YG17, YG03, YG01

Lily Pad: YG61, YG63, YG67/ R81, R83

I'm using papers from the Doodlebug "Down on the Farm" 6x6 collection. I  love the High Hopes sentiment "What the Flock", it just makes me giggle! A few enamel dots and my card is finished!!

I decided to decorate the inside of my card this time and used the HH sentiment called "Just Chick-en In".

Happy March 1st!!

Wow where did February go? ....time sure does fly these days! Today is a New Release "This & That" over at High Hopes Stamps! I can always use Birthday cards in my stash and this cutie is an adorable addition! Meet the cute "Baking Gnome" and "Birthday Wishes" sentiment from the new release.

I started my card by stamping the image onto Copic friendly paper with Memento black ink. My next step is then to pick my papers. I chose papers from the Polka Doodles "Birthday Fun" 6x6 collection.  

Taking my Copic markers I coloured in the image. I cut out "Baking Gnome" with a circle die and mounted it onto another circle die, cut from cardstock. Some banner dies with design papers and my sentiment help to make my card design. A few enamel dots, bow and glitter pen on the pink icing finish off my card.

Get Well Wishes!!

Happy Tuesday!

I love having "Get Well" themed cards on hand! I always think that getting a card when you're under the weather just brightens your day. When I saw the "Spoutin' Off" image with the "Feeling Whale" sentiment from High Hopes Stamps , I knew it would make an adorable card!

I decided to make an "Easel Card" today for something different! I haven't made one in ages and I absolutely love this one! I used my Cameo and a Svg file from Lori Whitelock called "Scalloped Circle Easel Card". The file has all the necessary parts to put together this card quick and easy. After stamping my image onto Copic friendly paper, I coloured it in with my Copic markers. Next I used A Gina Marie "Double Rope Circles" die and cut out my image. I popped it up with foam tape onto the card base. The Svg file shows to use a brad to keep the card in the easel position, but I used the sentiment popped up with foam tape, works perfectly. I don't often add flowers to my card as I'm not the greatest on placement but it worked here! Some glitter pen on the water and spout finishes off my card.

Here you can see how the Easel card folds down flat for mailing.

Copics Used:

C00, C0, C1, C4, C5, C8

BG0000, BG000, BG01
