Paper Smooches Frog Card

Loving Paper Smooches means I love having this new addition and was fast to pull out the froggie for this week! Used Paper Smooches A Little Lovin'. After coloring it with my copics, I tried a new technique for me, which was using Tim Holtz Distress inks of 4 greens after stamping them onto my acrylic block. After adding water in small amounts, I painted the background. Hope you enjoy!

Sherri Baldy Steampunk Bestie

This is the fabulous image by Sherri Baldy that I purchased the acrylic stamp of from Sherri herself January 2015!! She is as sweet as her "Besties"!!

Mostly used RV17, RV02, RV19, C1, C3,C5, C7, C9, E000, E00, R20, G15, YG13, E13, E33.

Card: I will always love you


The Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Inspired by a Song had me wanting to use a lyric from an Adele song, "However far away I will always love you" so here is my submission!  I used the adorable pattern papers from Authentique Playful 6x6. Isn't that cloudy sky fun? And then I used Lawn Fawn Love You So Mush for the cute grass and road line. The image is A Random Fan by Sherry T Designs called Summer Escape. Copic colored and popped up with a Action Wobbler. I printed the title as well as, stamped using Strathmore. I hand cut the banners and popped them up with Scotch double-sided foam tape

DCWV Shaker Card


This DCWV February Stack A Holic Challenge card, I used a shaker to jazz it up a bit! Hope you enjoy it!!
Here are the steps:
1. After stamping this Magnolia Rubber Stamp cutie on 80# Strathmore cardstock, I colored with my Copics to play along with #TheDailyMarker30DayChallenge.
2. Using a polaroid die cut, I glued a piece of plastic behind it, and added Scotch foam glue tape around the square opening, and then added more for the bottom of the polaroid.
3. Added loose bling in matching colors with my papers.
4. Adhered the Magnolia cutie to the back, adding Beacons 3 n 1 glue to insure that it held together.
5. Following the DCWV Sketch for February, I put the card together.  The circle was made using a Fiskars Circle punch. Fussy cut the package and popped it up.
