Deer & Bunny for Paper Rose

Compensated affiliate links may be used - these are at no extra cost to you. I appreciate your support!

 Today, I'm sharing a card with a sweet image from Paper Rose Studio.

 I stamped the image of the deer and the bunny with black ink and coloured them with Copic markers. I stamped the images onto masking paper and fussy cut them out so that I could mask off the images to ink blend the colour in the background.

Beveled embossing folders from Spellbinders

 A couple of super CAS cards to share today (even though they don't have a heap of white space) - I used the new Beveled A Gift for You and Beveled Thanks embossing folders from Spellbinders. I inked up the embossing folders with gold ink, cut the panel down and added some gold glitter or metallic cardstock.

 The new Wendy Vecchi release for Spellbinderss is called "Not Your Ordinary Card Collection" - I went with a colour scheme that is not my ordinary choice! (orange and purple are definitely not my favourite colours!)

Anything Goes - Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero

Compensated affiliate links may be used - these are at no extra cost to you. I appreciate your support! 

 The new Stay Crafty challenge with A Blog Named Hero is a perennial favourite - Anything Goes! I used layering stencils to create the background of this card, and added a stamped and die cut sentiment. I got the shine on the "you" die cut by adding packing tape before die cutting the word.

Dream Big for Paper Rose

Compensated affiliate links may be used - these are at no extra cost to you. I appreciate your support! 

 Today, I'm sharing a fun kids card for Paper Rose Studio.

I created a rainbow cloud background using the Clouds 6x6 stencil and Distress Oxide Inks, and adhered it to a mini slimline card base. I stamped the Happy Valentines - Giraffe clear stamp in black ink and coloured it with Copic markers. I adhered the giraffe with foam adhesive, stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set, and added a few dew drops as a finishing touch.

Hero Arts August kit

 I used the August Hero Studio Kit on the Month to create this tropical scene. I didn't intend this, but I think the sentiment looks like a ship on the horizon - a cruise sounds like a great idea!
