XOXO Valentines Card

Card making

Hi all,

Today, for the last Valentine’s card of this year, I have a lovely card using an oldie but a goodie, rub ons.

I started out with patterned papers from my stash for the background. The lovely florals make it a nice feminine card.

For the focal area instead of using my trusty stamps I pulled out some rub ons from my stash. You didn’t really rub ons used very often, but for this card I combined a few different ones to create the focal and the border. For the focal I combined the pretty simple wreath and the XOXO sentiment in the center. I added the black border rub on onto the pink card stock which makes the words nice and visible. I finished off embellishing with the enamel dots.

I hope you enjoyed today’s card and that you are inspired to search through your stash and pull out some of those goodies you haven’t played with in a while. Thanks for stopping by!

Owl Valentine Card

Card making

Hi all,

Today I have a cute Valentine card to share with you featuring one of my favorite critters to use on a card, an owl.

I used a couple of patterned papers from my stash. I used Lawn Fawn Outside In Stitched Heart Stackable dies to cut out the heart window, which leaves a nice stitched heart border all the way around the window.

For the owl image I used My Favorite Things I’m Owl Yours stamp set. I stamped the image and colored it in with my copics. I added glossy accents to the eyes for some shine and a bit of dimension. The sentiment comes from the same stamp set and was stamped and embossed on the dark chocolate strip of card stock.

I hope you enjoyed today’s project. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Winter Skies Valentines

Uncategorized

Hi all,

Today I have an adorable Valentine’s Day card featuring Lawn Fawn’s Winter Skies stamp set.

I had that great constellations patterned paper in my stash and immediately knew what I wanted to do with it.

For the images I used the bears from the Winter Skies set. I used my comics to color in the images and added a bit of shimmer to the scarf. The sentiment comes from an older set from my stash that isn’t even available anymore but the size of the Happy Valentine’s Day sentiment is perfect.

I hope you enjoyed today’s project. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Cute Dog Christmas Card

Card making

Hi all,

Today I have the cutest doggy Christmas card to share with you.

 

I created the background using patterned papers from my stash.

The star of the show is clearly that adorable puppy.  The image comes from MFT’s Happy Pawlidays stamp set, one of my favorites from MFT.  I colored him in with copics. I added some shimmer to the hat and lights and glossy accents to his nose, for that wet nose effect.  For the sentiment I stamped and embossed onto a red strip of card stock.

I hope you enjoyed today’s card.  Thanks so much for stopping by!
