Wedding Card for a Lovely Couple

 

    Happy Friday crafty friends! It's Lieschen again from Harshgul bringing you another fun card that I made using stamps from this month's new release. For this fun stamp set I used the Just Married and Through the Trees sets.

    To create the fun background, I used my T-ruler to create a frame around my front panel. I wanted to make it look as if the cute Volkswagen was driving into the picture/card. After that I used a pencil to sketch out my hills and roads. I used my Prismacolor pencils to color the background and my Copic markers to color the trees and the Volkswagen.

    To finish the card, I heat embossed a sentiment from the Just Married stamp set on holographic card stock, drew some balloon strings as if they were tied to the car, added some glossy accents to the lights of the car and some crystal drops on the hearts, and lastly I added some sequins to act as balloons.

    Thank you for checking today's post! I really hope this card has given you some inspiration create something fun & creative today. Until next time!

Brotherly Love

Hi Sweet Friends!  Julie, here and today I am sharing a card using the brand new stamp set, Brotherly Love along with previously released sets, Through the Trees (NinaB Designs) and Long Stem Silhouettes.

Look at all of the fun images in the Brotherly Love set!  The possibilities of combinations are endless- perfect for all sorts of occasions (including Father’s Day, Birthdays, Anniversaries) as well as Bible Art Journaling!

To create this card, I stamped the images Brotherly Love onto designer paper along with white and chocolate cardstock (I used a retired blue/woodgrain type of paper).  I fussy-cut all of the images and colored the face and sunglasses with water-based markers (my husband thought that this looked like him- if he had a beard :-)).

After paper piecing the man’s image, I heat embossed the tree image from Through the Trees onto white cardstock and used a square stitched die before mounting it onto espresso cardstock.

I layered the additional designer paper and cardstock for the card front (adding the ribbon and pewter slide to the corner) before adding the heat embossed sentiment from Long Stem Silhouettes and the paper pieced guy from Brotherly Love  with dimensional foam.

I finished off the card with a clear glitter pen to add shimmer to his sunglasses.

This was such a fun card to create and I cannot wait to design more “guys” in the future- lol!!

Don’t forget, we have a brand new Stamp of the Month, Texture Tiles 2 free with a net $75 (US$ order after all discounts and before shipping) plus any net $75 US receives free shipping- woohoo! 

Thanks again for taking the time to stop by! I hope all of you have a blessed week!

Your Kindness

Hello Everyone!  Today I have a card featuring the NEWLY released Through The Trees stamp set.  I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with Copic Markers.  To keep this a gender nutral card I kept the design very clean and just layered in on an embossed background.  The sentiment is from the Thoughtful Words stamp set.

Don't forget that the Scene Silhouettes: Wetlands is the January 2018 Stamp of the Month and is FREE with a $60 order through 1/31/18.

Happy Stamping!

Spotlight on SNSS

Hello sweet friends!  I love the new stamp sets released by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps this month, but I still love some of the old sets as well.  Today I am featuring the new and the old with two cards I made recently.

This first card uses the new Through the Trees stamp set as well as the Scene Silhouettes: Woodland set and the Thoughtful Words set designed by Nina Brackett.

The scene was stamped twice with the help of my Misti...once on Neenah card stock and once on mixed media paper.  Intense Color Blocks were used to watercolor the mixed media scene and ODBD Pierced Circle Dies were used to cut circles from the top layer.  The sentiment from the Thoughtful Words set was embossed on the top layer as well.  The top layer was popped over the watercolored layer using foam tape.  The animals from the Scene Silhouettes: Woodland set were embossed and cut with my SanNCut.  They were also popped onto the card with foam tape.

My second card uses the old Precious Poppies and Floral Greetings stamp sets.  Unfortunately I needed a sympathy card for a friend who just lost her father and the poppies were perfect.

The poppies were gold embossed on Neenah card stock and watercolored with Intense Color Blocks.  Fossilized Amber Distress Ink was sponged through a TH Burlap Stencil for a little shading behind the flowers.  The sentiment is from the Floral Greetings stamp set and was gold embossed on a black banner.  A bow made with metallic gold thread and black pearls were added to finish the card.

You can find these new and old stamp sets at the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store.

Thanks so much of stopping by!  Hope you were inspired and until next time...happy stamping!

Hugs,

Cathy

January release cards

Hello! I am sharing a couple of cards with you today using stamps from the NEW January release.

 

For my first card I used Stop Drop Pray and Whimsy Bouquet. I just stamped, colored with Copics, and popped my panel up on a sheet of white craft foam. A few drops of Stickles were added to the little dots.

 

 

Here I used Through The Trees and Thoughtful Words. The trees were stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa and outlined with a light blue Copic marker. I tore the left edge and layered it over a punched scallop border. Then I added some ribbon with a few folds in it, securing it with Scor-Tape and a gold brad.

 

Next I used Scene Silhouettes: Wetland Grass, Scene Silhouettes: Wetlands, and Thoughtful Words. (Wetlands is the January 2018 Stamp of the Month!). The background on the circle was masked/sponged.

And my last card was created with Whimsy Bouquet (such a pretty floral set) and Thoughtful Words. A perfect card for getting a jump start on Valentine's Day! The floral images were colored with Copics.

Have a great day!
