Hope Your Wishes Come True

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

I used this little cutie from the It's Your Birthday stamp set.  All the images in this set are so adorable and I love the large sentiments!  I colored the images with copics and used the It's Your Birthday Dies to diecut them.  I sponged the background with Worn Lipstick and Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Inks and flicked water with a paintbrush.  I diecut a frame from white cardstock and used acetate and sequins to make a fun shaker card.  

Copics Used:

Skin - E13, E11, E21, E00, E000, R20

Hair - E47, E25, E23, E21

Dress and Bow - RV66, RV55, RV63, RV52

Macarons - BG23, BG11, BG10; R85, R83,R81, RV10; BV15, BV12, BV01, V000; BG05, BG01, B000; R20, R12, R11, R00; Y02, Y11, Y00, Y000

Create A Smile Challenge - Sketch

Good morning!  We have a new challenge today over on the Create A Smile Stamps Blog.

Our new challenge is a sketch.  I used the Gull Gang stamp set for my card today.  The images are so cute and fun!  I stamped all the images onto Neenah cardstock, colored them with my copics, and fussy-cut them.  I stenciled some clouds onto the front of my card.  For the "water" I applied alcohol and copic refills to Alcohol Ink Cardstock.  This was my first time playing around with this technique and it was so much fun (and addictive lol).  I applied the Alcohol Ink Cardstock to the front of my card and then adhered all the images with foam tape for some added dimension.   

Copics Used:

Seagulls - C3, C1

Beaks, Feet - YR15, Y18

Shirt, Hat - B26, B24, B21, YG17, YG03, YG01

Wood - E27, E25, E23, E21

Fries, Box - R37, R35, R14, Y28,Y26, Y21

I hope you find some time to play along in the challenge.  The winner receives a gift card to the shop!  You can find all the challenge details on the Create A Smile Blog.  If you don't currently own any Create A Smile stamps, you can use a freebie from their blog! 

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you have a wonderful day!

Hugs, Anita
