Kendalls Card

My sweet Niece Kendall just turned 15 so I wanted to make her a special card.  Using Basicgreys Wisteria line, I die cut all the parts using Sizzix Lilac Build A Flower Die.  Spraying Tattered Angels Mist on the leaves and on the background was a way to add sparkle.  I did use a chandelier mask for the background.  Copic markers and micron pens were used to accent the leaves and of course I added a little more bling with the gems and sparkly thread (that I snagged at Michaels - in the yarn section).  The leaves are raised with pop dots and were curled a bit to add dimension.  Finally a sentiment stamped using a $1 stamp from Michaels.

Yes, still making cards!

My daughter is hooked on Fleur Di Lis right now and that's why I bought this stamp.  I thought it looked pretty cool too.  Got this stamp at Hobby Lobby and I paid full price for it.....no coupon...FOR SHAME!

This stamp is from The Angel Company.  I stamped in brown and used the copics.  Had this really pretty shimmery pink scraps that I paid a fortune for a while back.  

Another card using the same stamp, only in blue.  The sentiment is actually a sticker as are the stars all from a page kit that I've used before.

The Trivia Night is Saturday so I'm going to put all these cards, plus more in a basket for the Silent Auction.

Have a great day.

Still Making Cards

These papers are from Teresa Collins, the drink stamp cost me a buck at Michaels.  After I colored it in with Copics, I put Crystal Glaze on the glass parts.  The sentiment was outlined and then cut with my cricut.  


Yes, still working on cards for my Silent Auction Basket.

Not really excited about this one, I used two colors of ink to stamp and colored in with copics.  It's got a versamark stamped background and a touch of stickles in the center.

I've had this border stamp for years and this is the first time I've used it.  When it's completely closed the scallop edge rests against a solid red stripe.  Simple card.

Make a Wish Card

This card and one almost just like it (different ribbon) was made for my 2 nephews who just had birthdays!  I'm really loving this kraft paper for cards and layouts!  Starting cards are somewhat of a dilema for me - I usually end up picking one thing I want to play with and go from there - with no real plan in mind.  This time, it was the cupcake stamps and copic markers. {I've starting buying the sketch markers to use with - wait for it - the airbrush system that uses copic markers for ink}  It's on my wish list as practically "a need"  ha ha

I used one of those clever lever to punch out the stamped image and then spellbinders nestabilities for the larger scalloped circle.  Martha and her wonderful punches helped pretty this card up.  I punched the border and used my trimmer to make the width 3/4 inch.  This gave me room for my super skinny rickrack and stamped sentiment. Both circles fit on a 3 1/2 inch square and all of this was inked with colorbox ink.   A little touch of crystal stickles for the sprinkles and dots beside the sentiment finishes it off.
