Hi there! Today I made for this week's Freshly Made Sketches and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenges.

For this card, I started by trimming a piece of patterned paper and a piece of white card stock. I die cut a scalloped border on one side of the white card stock. I die cut three snowflakes of three different sizes and layered them. You can see all that well in the pictures but the largest and smallest snowflakes were die cut from white glitter card stock. I stamped the sentiments and trimmed them down. Last, I adhered everything to an A2 white card base. 

My Supplies:

Stamps: Simon Says Stamp Tiny Words Christmas

Dies: Lawn Fawn Stitched Scalloped Borders, Simon Says Stamp Bliss Snowflake, My Favorite Things Let It Snowflake

Ink: Simon Says Stamp Soft Navy

Paper: Echo Park Celebrate Winter patterned paper, Papertrey Ink White Stamper's Select, white glitter card stock

Thank you for coming by! I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend!

Happy Fall Y'all!

Hi there! I hope everyone is having a great day! Today I am the guest designer at CASE this Sketch.

For this card, I started by die cutting the kraft card stock panel. I stamped the small middle pumpkin with Versamark ink and heat set it with gold embossing powder. I cut a mask to put over it while I stamped the two larger pumpkins on either side of the small pumpkin. I also heat set them with gold embossing powder. I colored in my images and a shadow below the pumpkins with Faber Castell Polychromos colored pencils. For the sentiment I stamped and embossed the small sentiment strips. For the 'fall' I swiped a piece of ivory card stock with Versamark ink and heat set it with gold embossing powder and die cut it. The outline is die cut from ivory card stock.

My Supplies:

Stamps: Honey Bee Stamps Pumpkin Patch, Honey Bee Stamps Fall

Dies: Honey Bee Stamps Fall

Ink: Versamark

Paper: Simon Says Stamp Ivory, Papertrey Ink Kraft

Other: Wow Metallic Gold Rich Super Fine embossing powder

So Happy You're My Friend

Hi there! Today I am sharing a card that I created for this week's Freshly Made Sketches challenges.

To start this card I chose a couple different patterned papers to die cut the circles from. I decided I didn't want a plain white background so I die cut a panel from light gray card stock. I die cut the leaves next and originally I was only going to go with the darker green leaves. I die cut more from the lighter, brighter green and I really like the pop of color it adds. Next I stamped my sentiment and die cut it with a small oval die. I adhered everything to the card front and finished by adding a few clear sequins.

My Supplies: 

Stamps: Simon Says Stamp Sketched Flowers

Dies: My Favorite Things Blueprints 13, My Favorite Things Circle Stax Set 1, Papertrey Ink Branching Out, Sizzix Word Labels

Ink: Simon Says Stamp Intense Black

Paper: Vicki Boutin Mixed Media, My Favorite Things Limelight & Field Day, Papertrey Ink Soft Stone & Stamper's Select White

Embellishments: Honey Bee Stamps Clear Iridescent Sequins

Thank you for coming by! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

Party Like a Panda

Hello there! Today I have a card that I made for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. The theme this week is Happy Birthday.

I started this card by choosing the patterned paper and dies I wanted to use. I die cut the frame from white card stock and the panda from black and white flock transfer sheets. I then chose a sentiment and white heat embossed it on black card stock. I adhered all the layers to the pink striped patterned paper and finished by adhering the panel to a white card base.
