I Love You With Owl My Heart

Good morning friends!  Today I'm sharing a clean and simple card featuring stamps and dies by Crafty Meraki


These sweet images are from the Owl Yours stamp set.  I diecut a circle of white cardstock and used Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink and the Mini Cloud Edges Stencil to add pink clouds to the diecut circle.  I colored the owl, branch, leaf, and clouds with copics and adhered them to the circle with foam tape for added dimension.  I also added a little diecut heart below the sentiment.

Copics:
Owl - E33, E31, E30; E43, E42, E41; Y38
Branch - E29, E25, E23; YG17, YG03, YG01
Clouds - BG000

It's a very clean and simple card but I think it's really sweet.  Perfect to send to a loved one to let them know you're thinking of them!

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

I Think You're Really Cool

Good morning friends!  Today I'm sharing a card featuring a stamp set from Paperie Ink. 


These adorable snorkeling critters are from the Deep Down stamp set.  I made a slimline card measuring 3.5" x 8.5".  I cut the front panel from bristol card and then sponged it with Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire, and Tea Dye Distress Oxide Inks.  I used a stencil to add some "rays" peeking through at the top of the water.


I used a die to diecut the dome shapes in the card front and then adhered the dome shapes to the front of my card.  I adhered the outter diecut frame with foam tape for some added dimension.  I stamped all the images on Neenah, ran them through my ScanNCut, and colored them with copics.  I used a black glaze pen on their eyes and heat-embossed white bubbles behind the critters.  I also heat-embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder and adhered it with foam tape.


I adhered all the images with foam tape and applied Nuvo Crystal Glaze to their goggles.

These sweet little koalas in a teacup are from the Pure Koality stamp set.  I stamped the image on Neenah cardstock, ran it through my ScanNCut, and colored it with copics.  I used a black glaze pen on the koala's eyes and applied Nuvo Crystal Glaze to their noses.  I used Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink to lightly stencil a plaid design onto a piece of bristol card.  I adhered the stenciled panel to my card front and then adhered a diecut white frame with foam adhesive.  I stamped one of the sentiments from the stamp set and then added a diecut "Hello" word die.  Next, I adhered the colored image to my card with foam tape and added a few tiny star sequins to finish my card.

I'm Glad We're Friends

Hello friends!  Today I'm sharing a card I made for the My Favorite Things Color Challenge 167. 


I used two of the sweet images from the Snuggle Bunnies stamp set.  I think this stamp set is retired because I couldn't find it in their shop but hopefully they'll bring it back in a Vault release some day.  I colored the bunny and bear with copics and diecut them using the coordinating dies.


I used the Blueprints Dienamics 27 to diecut the stitched scalloped rectangle.  I used the Mini Cloud Edges Stencil with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink to create the clouds.  I used the Grassy Edges Stencil with Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Ink to create the grassy area.  I stamped one of the sentiments from the set and then adhered the critters with foam tape.

Copics:
Bunny and Bear - E55, E53, E51, E50; E02, E00
Shirt - BG05, BG01, B000; YG17, YG13, YG01
