You're My Everything

Hello everyone!  Today I'm sharing a card that I posted over on The Greeting Farm Blog.



I used this sweet little couple from the #Couplegoals stamp set.  This stamp set has images that are perfect for making a Valentine card for your significant other.  The stamp is currently sold out but I'm sure it will be back in stock soon.  I colored the image with copics and used the #Couplegoals dies to diecut them.  I sponged some distress ink on the white cardstock strip and adhered the couple with foam tape.

Copics Used:
Skin - E13, E11, E21, E00, E000, R20
Girl Hair - E44, E43, E42, E41
Boy Hair - 100, C7, C5, C3
Dress - RV55, RV63, RV52
Shirt - R59, R37, R17
Pants - 100, C7, C5, C3
Phone - C3, C1

 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs, Anita

Sending Hugs

Good morning!  Today I'm sharing a card I made using an adorable stamp set from My Favorite Things.


This elephant is from My Favorite Thing's BB Adorable Elephants.  I colored the elephant and balloon with copics and then used the coordinating dies to diecut them.  I used a black glaze pen on the elephant's eyes.  The sentiment is from a different MFT stamp set.  The colors I used for my card are the colors in the current MFT Color Challenge 110.

Copics Used:
Elephant - W2, W1, W0; E00, E000, E0000

Warm Hugs

Good morning!  Today I'm sharing a card I made using a stamp set from Love Cynthia.


This little snowgirl (although it could be a snowman lol) is from the Happy Holiday stamp set by Love Cynthia.  I colored the snowgirl with copics and then fussy-cut her.  I sponged distress inks onto a stitched rectangle and adhered the snowgirl with foam tape.  I used a black glaze pen on the girl's eyes, and the snowsuit eyes and buttons.  I added a few sequins for some sparkle.  This card was super quick and easy and I'm sure it will bring a smile to the recipient ;)

Copics Used:
Skin - E13, E11, E21, E00, E000, R20
Hair - E47, E44, E43, E42
Snowsuit - C3, C1, R20, R11, YR14, YR12

Keeping Christmas Inspiration Hop



Welcome to the Keeping Christmas Inspiration Hop!  If you are looking for some inspiration for Christmas cards, you have come to the right place.  Our team does a monthly Keeping Christmas Inspiration Hop! We will be sharing Christmas creations on the 25th of each month.

The whole idea is to have some Christmas cards and projects in our stash all ready to go for December 2019!


I used the Secret Ingredient stamp set by Create A Smile Stamps.  There are lots of fun images in this stamp set and you can use it for occasions other than Christmas.  I love when I can get more use out of my stamps.  I stamped the snowgirls and accessories on Neenah cardstock and colored them with copics.   I used my Scan N Cut to diecut them.  I used a black glaze pen on the snowgirl eyes and mouths.  I added some Nuvo Crystal Glaze to the snowgirl noses, eggs, water pitcher, and bowl of hearts.  For the base of my card, I sponged Worn Lipstick and Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Inks onto Bristol card and flicked water with a paintbrush.  I adhered a diecut frame over the Bristol and  then adhered my images with foam tape.

Copics Used:
Snowgirls - BV20, BG70, R20, R00
Noses - YR18, YR14, YR12
Hat - C3, C1
Scarf - V17, V15, V12
Apron and Hearts in Bowl - R85, R83, R81
Whisk - E35, E33, E31, E30, C3, C1
Eggs & Carton - E33, E31, E30, C3, C1
Pitcher - BG11, BG10
