Wednesday September 8, 2021

Hello

We have a new month long challenge over at

Our theme this month is
HELLO FALL



We have 3 sponsors this month





I am using the SheepSki image called Buzzing  I colored with copics. I went over the bee wings with Spectrum Noir sparkle brush. I added the clouds with my template and Ranger ink. I added a dot of Nuvo clear to the bees eye and the centers of the sequins. I used some scraps and added the ribbon down the seam. I then used My favorite things stitch die and added the image to the base. I stamped the Tech. Tues. sentiment and added this to the card. I hope it has the fall feel. I tried to keep it on the nature colors and how fall can you get with bees and a thistle..

I could just squeeze you - Cardz 4 Guyz #279

Tuesday September 7, 2021

Hello

It's time for a new challenge over at

Our theme this challenge is
BLUE - YELLOW - GRAY

I don't know that I've ever done a card with these colors.. So this was fun to figure what to do and do different. I saw this old red rubber lemon stamp from Rubber Stampede so then I dug through my designer papers (without names) and found this awesome paper. So I used Ranger inks and colored the stamp and then using a blending tool went around the edges after I fussy cut it out.  I found this nice blue card stock scrap so I heat embossed the Concord and 9th sentiment. I used Tech. Tues. banner die. I finished with some sequins and Nuvo drops in the center. I like the colors.

Merry Christmas - Sparkles Christmas #128

Wednesday September 1, 2021

Hello

We have a new challenge this month at

Our theme this month is
CHRISTMAS STOCKINGS


I didn't have a rubber/acrylic stocking stamp.. so I looked at my digital folders.. I found this Christmas Stocking from Beccy's Place.   I colored it with copics. I really like non traditonal Christmas colors and this one reminded me of my Mom's Christmas tree.. one of them. She had three in her house. When she was alive she loved Christmas and her house was all decked out. So I thought of that when I colored it. I added to some Stampin up card stock and added the Simon Says sentiment and Pretty Pink Posh jewels. I added a little Spectrum Noir sparkle brush.

Hello

It's another month so another challenge over at

Our theme this month is
SPINNER CARD


I don't recall if I've made a spinner card before. If I have it's been a long time ago. I watched a Jennifer McGuire U-tube on how.. It's actually quite simple.. I wasn't sure what image to use for the spinner part so looking at different images I saw this flower from Spellbinder?  I could make the front and back image so no problem. I stamped two flowers and colored with copics. I fussy cut them out. I added clear Nuvo drops to the centers and set them aside to dry. I took the blue card stock and using Simon Says leaf stamp and Versa Mark ink stamped the front and back of the card with the leaves. I cut the circle for the hanging part. I stamped a smaller shimmery white for the background behind the flower. I used SS sentiment and heat embossed. I turned the smaller fold open and glued down the clear thread and let it dry. Once all was dry I added the flowers with the thread in-between. It's done. 


this is the card open and the other side of the flower.
