Designers Choice Cards with Vanessa and Anja

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a fun Spring card to brighten your day! I watched the big bumblebees in our garden this week and wanted to make a bumblebee card. This is what I came up with:

I first covered the front of my card with flower patterned paper from the Spring Fling paper pad. Then I die-cut the Frilly Frames Hexagon from masking paper, adhered it to a panel of white cardstock, inked the panel with yellow and orange Distress Oxide Inks and removed the mask. Now I stamped the sentiment, combined from the "spring" from Cheerful Daisies and the "ha-bee" made with the Phoebe Alphabet. There is no dash in the set, I used the exclamation mark instead. After I had adhered the panel to the card, came the funniest part.

I created a bumble-bee from the Chickie Baby set and the Happy Owl-o-ween set. A bumble-chick or chickie-bee? Whatever! Something cute :) . I stamped the elements, colored them with Copics, fussy-cut the images and assembled the little thing before adhering it to the card with foam tape. Finally, I added yellow and orange Rainbow Droplets to the card.

I hope this made you smile today, we can all do with smiles! Thanks for visiting!

Hello everyone, Anja here with one more Easter card combining several stamp sets. I turned the Easter eggs from the Chubby Bunny and the Chickie Baby set into balloons with the help of masking and the Floating By Stamps.

First, I did a soft background by sponging Distress Oxide Inks (Squeezed Lemonade, Scattered Straw, Dried Marigold and Worn Lipstick) over self-made stencils that I cut with the Fluffy Clouds Border Dies. I used the stitched rectangle die included in the Frilly Frames Retro Petals set to cut out my panel.

Next, I stamped the bunny in the basket, the balloons as well as the little birdies (Seasonal Tree Stamps) and the fence with grass border (Spring Scenes Stamps) in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images with Copic Markers and cut them out with the coordinating dies. Before adhering the images with foam tape, I stamped the balloon strings and sentiment in VersaFine Onyx Black Ink directly onto my cloud background. I also stamped the word 'bunny' with the Phoebe Alphabet Stamps and fussy cut it out with scissors leaving a small white border.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Wishing you all a Happy Easter!

A Good Egg and Chubby Bunny Easter Cards with Franci and Ana

Hello there and happy Wednesday! Franci here with you today with a cute Easter card featuring the A Good Egg set.

Awww. I love this little chick so much! First of all I created my card base out of white cardstock and I covered the front with this lovely blue floral patterned paper from the Spring Fling set.

Then I stamped, colored and die cut all the images and added some details with a white gel pen. I die cut my scalloped panel out of white cardstock using the Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace and glued down all the images with a combo of liquid glue and foam adhesive.

Finally I stamped my sentiment, added a little confetti heart and adhered my panel onto the front of my card with foam adhesive. I'm so happy about how this clean and simple card turned out, all these pastel colors make me smile!

Hope you like it too and thank you so much for stopping by today!

Hello friends! Ana here today with a bunny Easter card featuring Chubby Bunny stamps and dies and Spring Fling paper pack.

With Easter around the corner I thought I’d share a card to give you a cute idea for Chubby Bunny stamp set. I thought that bunny sitting on a pile of chocolate bunnies would look so cute.

I stamped several bunnies on masking paper and fussy cut them out. I was able to create a pile of chocolate bunnies by masking them where they overlap. Once I had my bunnies completed, I masked the top part of the pile, and stamped chocolate eating bunny. I stamped the other bunny and the sentiment next and colored the images with Copic Markers.

To create the shaker, I used largest Fancy Frames Rectangle dies for the frame. I adhered the acetate to the back of the frame then added doubled up foam tape. I filled the shaker with Birthday Cake Dot Sprinkles and backed the shaker with beautiful scene patterned paper from Spring Fling paper pack.

Using liquid glue, I adhered the bunnies to the front of the shaker then added the sentiment with foam tape. I added few butterflies (from Spring Showers stamp set) and my Easter shaker was finished!

I really hope you like the card I shared today! I hope you have a wonderful Easter!

Fabulous Flamingos and Chickie Baby Cards with Leanne and Mindy

Hello everyone, Leanne here! I hope you all are staying safe and healthy. I have been taking advantage of the extra free time to catch up on my card making and other crafty endeavors. For today's card I really didn't have a specific design in mind. I pulled out one of my favorite Sunny Studio stamp sets along with some Distress Oxide inks and just played around with them. 

I started with an A2 size panel of white card stock. I created an ink blended background using Tattered Rose, Ripe Persimmon, and Picked Raspberry Oxide inks. I began at the top and blended the three colors from lightest to darkest for an ombre' effect. I didn't take the color all the way down to the bottom of the panel. Instead, I die cut a border where the Picked Raspberry blending stopped. I used a die from the Eyelet Lace Border set to create the little daisy shaped openings and backed with black card stock. I then generously splattered the entire panel with white and pink paint. 

Next I Copic colored a flamingo and some tiny flowers images from the Fabulous Flamingo stamp set. I decided to use a bold die cut greeting to go with the flamingo. I die cut the word Hello from some black glitter card stock. Using the daisy border as a grounding line, I adhered the flamingo and hello right along that line. I then added the flowers a bit randomly around the flamingo. To finish the design off, I added just a few Glossy White Nuvo drops.

Pink Peonies and Tiny Dancer Cards with Lynn and Ashley

Good morning! It’s Lynn here and I’m excited to share a birthday card I created featuring the beautiful Pink Peonies stamp set and dies.

To create my card, I started out by stamping three of the peonies and some of the leaves from the Pink Peonies stamp set and colored them using Copic markers then die cut them out using the Pink Peonies dies. Next I die cut a piece of white card stock using the Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace die. 

After that I die cut a stitched rectangle and blended on three different colors of distress oxide ink, at one end I used Twisted Citron Distress ink and then blended on some Fossilized Amber Distress ink in the middle and blended it out toward the other end for a lighter yellow. I then went back and blended on some Mowed Lawn Distress ink along the edges of the Twisted Citron end. 

Once my ink blending was completed, I used my Misti tool and stamped my sentiment. After that I watered down some black acrylic paint and added some paint splatters, once that was dry I adhered my blended ink piece to my Frilly Frames piece and adhered my peonies and leaf images, popping up the large center peony with foam tape. I also added some foam tape on the backside of my white die cut Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace piece before attaching it to my card front.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello friends! It's Ashley with a very special card today! I used the Tiny Dancers set to create a custom card for my daughter's dance teacher. It's her very first year of dance, so she can give this to her teacher after her recital. It's not until June, so fingers crossed it is still able to happen! 

Aren't the dancers adorable? I colored them to look like my daughter and her classmates in their recital costumes (they are going to be bees). It's a two year old dance class, so the poses are a bit advanced, but it is just too cute. My girl is the blondie on the end, in case you were wondering ;)

I started by stamping the five dancers from Tiny Dancers in Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink, sketched the stripes in with pencil, and colored with Copics. I went over my pencil lines with a black Sharpie and added some dots and crosses for sparkle with a white gel pen, before cutting the dancers out with the Tiny Dancers dies.

For the background, I blended Pinkfresh Studio inks in Ocean Breeze and Aquamarine. I added spotlights with Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide and some Heffy Doodle Memo Tape. I embossed a strip of kraft cardstock with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder and blended a bit of Pinkfresh Studio Warm Buff ink for depth to create the dance floor. Then, I cut the whole piece with the frame from Frilly Frames Stripes and added it to some grey starburst paper from the Subtle Grey Tones paper pack.

I stamped the sentiment from Tiny Dancers with Versafine Onyx Black. For a finishing touch and extra sparkle, I scattered a few Studio Katia Iridescent Crystals around the front of the card. Such a cute card for my Tiny Dancer's teacher!

Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope you are all safe and well! Have a wonderful day!
