It's Your Birthday!

Happy Monday friends!  Today I'm sharing a card featuring a digital stamp from the LTTS Doodles Etsy Shop!

I printed the digital image on an oval that I die cut from Neenah card stock.  I colored the image with copics and added Nuvo Crystal Glaze on the candle flame and cake sprinkles.  I die cut a banner that I also colored with copics.  I adhered the oval and banner with foam tape to add some dimension to my card.  The sentiment is from my stash.

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

Frosty Friends

Hello crafty friends!  I'm sharing a fun birthday card I made featuring a digital stamp from the Amanda Jayne Designs Etsy shop!

This adorable image is called Frosty Friends and the sentiment is from the Rainbow Friendship Sentiments set.  I diecut the background from white card stock and inked it with Prize Ribbon and Black Soot Distress Oxide Inks.  I splattered it with thinned white gouache and attached it to the card base.  I added a strip of pattern paper and the sentiment along the bottom of the card.  I printed the image on Neenah card stock, colored it with copics, and fussy-cut it.  I used a white gel pen to add polka dots to the penguin's scarf and I used Nuvo Crystal Glaze on the bear's nose and the penguin's beak and feet.  I attached the image with foam tape and then added a few diecut snowflakes.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I hope you have an amazing day!

Gingerbread Christmas

Hello crafty friends!  Today I'm sharing a fun Christmas card featuring an older stamp set by The Greeting Farm.

This sweet gingerbread couple is from the Gingerbread Christmas clear stamp set.  I can't find this stamp on their website so I'm assuming it's been retired or maybe it's just currently sold out.  I embossed a 4.25" x 5.5" panel of white card stock with a big dot embossing folder but the embossing doesn't really show well in the photo.  I used a Spellbinders' die to cut the dome shape, inked it with Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide Ink, and splattered it with thinned white gouache.  I die cut a snow bank and a red bow and adhered them to the dome.  I glued the dome to my card an added a few die cut snowflakes.  I colored the gingerbread with copics, fussy-cut them, and adhered them with foam tape.

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

Christmas Reindeer

Hello friends!  I'm sharing a Christmas card featuring products from My Favorite Things!  

I cut a panel of bristol card and heat-embossed snowflakes from various stamp sets in my stash.  I inked the panel with Spun Sugar and Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Inks.  I used a paper towel to remove the ink over the snowflakes and splattered the panel with water.  I attached the panel to my card along with a die cut snowy slope.  I die cut the Stacked Merry Die-namics from both red and white card stock, adhered the die cuts together, and adhered it to my card.  I heat-embossed the Christmas sentiment on black card stock and adhered it to my card with foam tape.  I stamped the Reindeer Love reindeers on Neenah card stock, colored them with copics, and die cut them using the coordinating dies. I used a black gel pen on the eyes and noses and then adhered the reindeer to the card.

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

Have A Sweet Christmas

Good morning and happy Monday!  Today I'm sharing a clean and simple Christmas card featuring products from Streamside Studios! 

These sweet penguins are from the Christmas Squishes digital stamp set.  I printed the penguins on Neenah card stock, colored them with copics, and fussy cut them.  I die cut a scalloped rectangle from red card stock and adhered it to my card base.  I die cut a stitched rectangle, inked it with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink, and adhered it to my card.

I stamped the sentiment from the Sweet Christmas clear stamp set and then adhered the penguins with foam tape.  I added some die cut greenery and a red bow and then finished my card by adding a few sequins from the Baby It's Cold Outside embellishment mix.
