Get Well Card – CDD

Apr29

Hi There!

Thought I’d share a card that I made for my neighbour using the stamps and sentiments from Craftin Desert Divas (CDD) Tissue Time.

Sorry, my camera took it really small.

Here is a closer look at the panels before I assembled them.

I decided to make this an accordian card using the dies from Elizabeth Craft  – Accordian Circle Card 769 and Elizabeth Craft – Square Frame Edges 770.

Images were stamped using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. To colour I used my Copics and Spectrum Noir markers and then used Gamsol and Prisma Premier coloured pencils to create the shading.

I just love this stamp set. Don’t you?

Hi There! Thought I would share a card that I made for my aunt’s birthday.

This was my first attempt at the tear bears. I used the cut files from Too Cute By Jessica – Marjorie Ann Designs using my Cricut Explore.

I won the cut file playing Bingo during the Craftin Desert Diva’s New Stamp Release Blog Hop. It was a lot of fun.

The sentiments and face on balloon are from Peachy Keen PKSC-25 January 2014.

The card was cut out with We R Memory Keepers – Quickkutz Nesting Frame 7 dies and my Cuttlebug using various colours of cardstock.

Cupcake cardstock is from Doodlebug Design Inc. 6 x 6 Paper Pad – 4202 Sugar Shoppe.

The yellow frill on the dress and had were both done with Flowersoft.

Lastly, I added in some little sprinkle gems that I had.

Happy Easter to the Vet From Boo

Apr5

Happy Easter Everyone!

Here is the latest card that I made for the vet from

our black cat Boo for this year.

Boo Easter 2015 front

The digi stamp is free from Sliekje’s digi stamps. (http://sliekje.blogspot.ca/).

Thanks for sharing Sliekje. Love your designs.

The little rabbits are from my new stamp set from Craftin Desert Divas (www.craftindesertdivas.com) Hunny Bunny stamp set. I just love it.

I used Memento Tuxedo Black Ink to stamp the little bunnies and the sentiment. Next I drew in the inside of the rabbit ears, face, hands, feet and tail with my Micron 05 Black pen. I used my copics to colour the background for the sentiment.

I used We R memory keepers Quickutz Nesting Frame 7 dies to cut the layers of coloured paper using my Cuttlebug.

Inside the card:

Boo Easter 2015 inside

I used the same stamp set for the bunny in the basket and the sentiment. I coloured in the bunny, eggs, basket, etc. with my Spectrum Noir and Copic markers. Finished off the highlights with my PrismaColor Premier coloured pencils and Gamsol.

Then used a marker to go around the edging. Layered it onto blue and yellow cardstock.
