The Greeting Farm masculine card creepin crew

This card was made using a creepin crew stamp from The Greeting Farm. I colored his hair, face and inner shirt with copics. The guitar is paper glazed and the shirt and pants are paper pieced. The paper line is from DCWV. The metal letters are from my stash, I believe they were from making memories, I have had them quite awhile. The strips are from the same paper line I was trying to do faux washi tape since I do not have any. The image is cut out will a spellbinders die that I had also used on the inside. The little box was made using the sizzix box #2 die that I had used the same paper line on and added a sentiment from Stampin Up.

Birthday Card

This card was made for my daughter using a couple of retired sets from Stampin Up (little girl and balloons). The clouds are from a CTMH stamp. The butterlies are from the Stampin Up sizzix beautiful wings die which I have placed a pearl in the center of the butterflies. The grass is from a TAC stamp set which I stamped in wild wasabi ink from SU and sponged around the bottom edge in the same ink color. The clouds and girl were masked and sponged with SU sky ink as well. I then cut the image out with my nestabilities and layed with another nestabilitie die. The balloons were stamped on different patterened papers and cut out. I then placed them on foam dots to add dimension. I adhered some white floss for the strings of the balloons and attached them to her hand, I added the button for a little added interest. The girls overalls and top were paper pieced and shaded with markers.

Fairy Birthday Backpack

 I made this backpack for a friend of mine for her birthday. The instructions for the backpack were from Splitcoaststampers.com I used the fairy set from Stampin Up for the main image that was paper pieced and shaded with alcohol markers and then cut with Spellbinders Nestabilities.  Studio G dollar stamps were used for the embossed images in the background. The top flap of the pack was cut using Tim Holtz Ornate on the edge die. In the front pocket I placed a small 3x3 card and placed a small gift inside the backpack which is held closed with velcro.

C.C. Designs card with Fancy Nancy papers

My daughter needed to make a card for her classroom aide and this is what we came up with. She picked out the colors and stamp and mom helped with the layout and coloring.

This card was made using the Fancy Nancy designer paper pack. I used the card base cutout from the stack as our base. The girl is from C.C. Designs which I paper pieced from the stack and colored with the few copic markers that I have and popped her up with mounting foam. I then added glossy accents to her flower and also on the butterfly on the cs layer punchout. The rosette is made from Tim Holtz rosette die with the Fancy Nancy paper. The sentiment is from Stampin Up cut into a banner shape.

Cow birthday petal card

This card was made for a friend who loves cows.  I wanted a cow standing up and did not have one on my cricut cartridges so I used a program to convert an image for cutting. I love how I can use these programs to compliment my cricut cartridges. The cow was cut at 3.5 inches and layered. I shaded around all the edges. I used a piece of DCWV's Flower Shower paper pack for the background and grass. The blades of grass were cut from Disney's Pooh and Friends cricut cartridge to add a little more dimension. The party stamp is from Studio G. I then incorporated the envelope to become part of the card by mounting the card base to the envelope. The envelope was cut from Stampin Up's dsp. I then stamped on a circle with a Stampin Up set and made the circle into a tag. The ribbon is from Stampin Up.

Motorcycle Birthday Card

Off to my nephews birthday party, but I thought I would share the card I had made for him. He is fond of motorcycles and dirtbikes so this is what I came up with. The card base is a standard A2 size card of Stampin Up's Pacific Point cardstock cut 5 1/2 x 11 and scored in half. I then matted a piece of tin foil (that I had embossed with my diamond cuttlebug folder) on a piece of black cardstock. The motorcycle is a Stampin Up stamp and so is the sentiment. I colored in the motorcycle with pacific point and going gray ink with my blender pen and sponged the edges with pacific point ink, then matted the image on black cardstock. Mini brads were placed in all four corners and then the matted imaged was placed on the card with dimensionals.
