 Today, I'm sharing a wedding card I made using products from Paper Rose Studio.

I embossed a piece of metallic peach coloured cardstock with the Leafy Garden 3D embossing folder, and adhered it to a top folding white card base. I chose an image from the Wedding Blooms Embossed die cuts and adhered it over the peach panel with foam adhesive. I added a "congratulations" printed sentiment and some pearl accents.

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

I cut a piece of white cardstock to be the same size as my card front. I cut the Wedding Blooms Border die from the panel on an angle to create a window. I chose a piece of rainbow paper from the Rainbow Garden Collection 6x6 pack and adhered it behind the window. I stamped the sentiment from the "It's your day" stamp set in black ink, and added some clear embellishments to finish the card.

There's a new Stay Crafty challenge with A Blog Named Hero! The theme is "Do you believe in love?", so I'm sharing this wedding card I made for Emily and Matthew (who were married a few weeks ago). I made a similar card a few months ago where I used numbers instead of letters, for a birthday, so this is a CASE of one of my own cards (but with letters instead of numbers!)

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

I started by blending a rainbow of Distress Oxide inks on a panel of white cardstock. I cut the cloud coverplate die from white cardstock six times. I cut the rainbow panel to the same size as the coverplate pieces. 

I adhered five of the cloud panels on top of the rainbow panel and let the glue dry. I adhered the last cloud panel to a piece of acetate. I took the baby and hearts shaker mix and I separated out the colours (yes, I did this by hand, yes, I'm crazy!) before adding the pieces to the clouds to match the colour of the ink blending. I then adhered the last piece with the acetate over the top, and adhered the entire shaker panel to a top folding card base. 

I cut the Congratulations small die set from grey cardstock and from vellum, and adhered them over the top of the shaker panel.

There's a new challenge at Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero - let's get Scrappy! 

I used little scrap strips of glitter cardstock to create the sentiment and the frame. I adhered them to a piece of vellum, and then added them to a card that opens in the middle!

Wedding card for Paper Rose Studio

 I have a card to share today using a stamp set from Paper Rose Studio.

 

 

I stamped and white embossed the "It's Your Day" dress stamp onto watercolour paper. I then watercoloured around the edge of the image using Zig markers and a waterbrush, and painted over the dress using gold and pearl coloured Gansai Tambi watercolours. I finished with a gold embossed sentiment on a scrap of royal blue cardstock, and put a strip of the same cardstock down the left side of the card.  

 

I'm submitting this card to the Wednesday challenge at Simon Says Stamp, where the theme is Anything Goes.

Bookmark at A Blog Named Hero

The challenge at A Blog Named Hero at the moment is "Anything but a card" - this is outside my comfort zone, so I've stayed pretty simple with a bookmark!

I used the Jungle Bold Prints stamp, white embossed and then inked with Distress Oxide Inks. I cut the word "congrats" from the Congrats Happy Stamp & Cut set from some teal cardstock and also from the bookmark to do a die cut inlay. I finished with a stamped sentiment and some ribbon.

Sunny Congrats for Picket Fence Studios

Hello! I have a simple and fun card to share today, using a stencil from the January release at Picket Fence Studios.

Pink congrats

I made this congratulations card a few months ago for a workmate of mine who really likes pink!

I started by inking over a stencil from Gina K with some Distress Oxide ink. I used a leftover piece of yupo with alcohol inks and pink foil, die cut with a heart die and with a Hugs die from Pink and Main over the top. The Congratulations stamp is from Clearly Besotted.
