For My Special Somebunny

Good morning!  Today I'm sharing a card using a new release from the Paperie Ink etsy shop. 

These cute images are from the new My Somebunny stamp set.  Preorders for this new stamp start tomorrow!    I stamped the images on Neenah cardstock, ran them through my ScanNCut, and then colored them with Copics.  I used a black glaze pen on the bunny's eyes and I used a white gel pen to add highlights to the critters' cheeks.  I sponged Twisted Citron Distress Oxide Ink onto Bristol card, diecut it with a border die, and paired it with some bright and cheery paper.  That cute sentiment is included in the stamp set!  I added the chicks and bunny pot with foam tape and adhered a few sequins for some sparkle. 

Copics Used:

Bunny - E31, E30, E50; R20; E01, E000

Flowers - BV20, BG70; Y15, Y13, Y11, Y00; RV66, RV63, RV10; YG17, YG03, YG01

LDRS Creative - Love You

Happy Friday everyone!  I'm back today to share another card using LDRS Creative products.

These adorable images are from the Strawberry Patch stamp set.  This stamp set has cute bears, mice, strawberries, and several sentiments, making it perfect for so many different occasions!  I stamped the images with Raven Hybrid Ink, diecut them using the coordinating Strawberry Patch dies, and colored them with my copic markers. 

I diecut the base of my card and the scallop frame from white cardstock using the Slim Line Scallop Die Set.  I used a blending brush to apply Key Lime Pie Hybrid Ink to white cardstock and then diecut it using the In The Grass Dies.   For the sky, I sponged Marine Madness Hybrid Ink onto my card.  I diecut the sun using the Here Comes The Sun Die Set and I sponged it with Banana Cream Pie and Tangerine Dream Hybrid Inks.  I used the Love You Die to diecut the sentiment.  I used a black glaze pen on the bears' eyes and noses and attached all the images to my card with foam tape.

You're So Mice

Good morning!  I'm back today to once again share a card using LDRS Creative products.

These cute images are from the Boardwalk Mice stamp set.  I stamped the images with Raven Hybrid Ink, diecut them using the coordinating Boardwalk Mice dies, and colored them with my copic markers.  I sponged Marina Madness Hybrid Ink on the base of my card and used the Seesaw Slider Die Set to create the sliding balloons on the front of my card.  The slider set is so fun and easy to use.  There's a video here that shows exactly how these dies work.

I sponged Key Lime Pie Hybrid Ink onto cardstock and diecut it using the In The Grass Die.  I adhered the grass panel with foam tape and then adhered the images.  Do you see how the balloons slide up and down?  So fun!

Good morning friends!  Today I'm sharing a sweet Easter card using a stamp set by Photoplay.

This cute bunny and little flowers are from the Easter Wishes stamp set.  The stamp set also includes another bunny and chick, along with some larger Easter eggs.  I picked up my stamp at The Paper Cottage but if you're not local I believe Simon Says Stamp also carries this set.  I colored the bunny and flowers with copics and then ran them through my ScanNCut.  I used the Stitched Heart Die to diecut a stitched heart in the pink gingham paper.  I sponged Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Ink onto Bristol card and then diecut it using the In The Grass Die Set.  I stenciled clouds onto my cardbase and then used foam tape to adhere the grass and pink gingham paper to my card.  I used an oval die to diecut the eggs from scraps of design paper.  I also used a die from my stash to cut the sun.  I used a black glaze pen on the bunny's eyes and nose.  I adhered the bunny and the sun and then tucked the flowers and eggs into the grass.  

Copics Used:

Bunny - E55, E53, E51, E50; R20, R00; E01, E00, E000

The Greeting Farm - March Previews Day 2

Hello and welcome to Day 2 of The Greeting Farm previews of the March release!  Today I'm sharing a card that features the new Bouquet stamp set.

This stamp set features beautiful floral images and sentiments.  These stamps can be used to create a background for your card or they can become the focal point.  I decided to take one of the images and create a wreath.  I lightly traced a circle onto white cardstock and then I repeatedly stamped the same image around the circle.  Once the ink was completely dry, I erased the pencil lines and colored the flowers with copics.  I stamped the sentiment and diecut it with a circle die.  I matted the sentiment and the image with green cardstock and adhered it to my square card base.  Please stop by tomorrow for our third day of previews.  In the meantime, visit The Greeting Farm Blog to see what the rest of the team created!

Happy Easter

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

I'm using a digital image on my card today, 2019 Easter Anya.  She's one of my favorite images to use for Easter cards!  I colored Anya and her little peep with copcs and then cut out the image using my ScanNCut.  I added Glamour Dust glitter to the peeps so they would look as though they were covered in sparkly sugar.  I used foam tape to adhere Anya to a diecut oval and then again used foam tape to adhere the oval to my card front.  There's also an adorable Ian version of this digital image, 2019 Easter Ian.  You can find the card I made using Ian here.
