I love how the silver foil looks on blue cardstock. It was so easy to hot foil the floral image and sentiment and color it using Copic markers.
I stamped and colored up these adorable mice using Copic markers and die cut it out with the coordinating dies. To create the shaker window I used the Circle Frames Die. I popped up the outer layer using double sided adhesive foam tape and filled the window with some sparkly sequins.
I stamped and colored this adorable image using Copic markers. I cut two layers out of the new Carnival Paper Pack and framed them on my A6 sized card base. To create the backdrop for the little ducky I used the new stencil and Distress Oxide inks and cut out a hexagon shaped panel. I then cut out a white frame to make it pop over the patterned paper. The sentiment strips were cut using the new Scalloped Sentiment Strips die and the sentiment is from the new Best Day Ever stamps.

I used the Neigh Stamps and Dies to create an A7 sized card. This stamp set is sooooo cute and I'm sad it will be retiring. I stamped and colored all the images using Copic markers and cut them out using the coordinating dies. For the background I used the A7 Frames & Banners Die. Using Distress Inks and the Cloud Stencil I created the sky and grassy meadow scenery. I cut out the scallop layer using patterned paper from my stash.
For the 3D aspect I used the Gift Bag Die. It is such a great way to present a gift card a birthday or holiday card. I colored up the pup using Copic markers. He's so cute and ready for a party! You can find the colors I used listed below. The patterned papers are from the Celebrate Paper Pack. I used glittered gold cardstock for the handles and bow.
I used regular tissue paper in blue and glued it to the inside back of the die cut leaving plenty of room for the gift card to slide in behind.
I stamped and heat embossed the images. The adorable balloons with the hearts are from the Delightful Doxies stamp set. I colored them all using Copic Markers. I cut them using my Scan 'n Cut but there are coordinating dies available for these images. For the background I cut out the scalloped rectangle from the Framework Die set. Then I ink blended it using Distress Inks in Peacock Feathers, Salvaged Patina, Broken China and Tumbled Glass.
For today's card I decided to do a slim line featuring the images from both the Newton Loves Cake and Newton's Antics stamps. I dressed them all in birthday hats using masking technique, stamped, embossed and colored them using Copic markers. I also doodled on their hats using a white gel pen.
I love the new Slimline Masking Stencils and used the squares to do some ink blending with my Distress Inks. I kept with the same colors as the party hats creating a soft pastel background for my kitties. I stamped sentiments from both stamp sets and used both the Slimline Frames & Portholes and Slimline Frames & Windows Dies to add the frame and scalloped layers to my card.
My daughter turned 21 yesterday. I am still in disbelief with how quickly time flies. In the blink of an eye my baby is all grown. When we are young the days seem to last forever. I remember thinking I couldn't wait to be this age or that age... now I sit and ponder and wish "if I could just go back..", I would most definitely appreciate each moment and live it more fully.
To finish it up I added some iridescent sequins (she loves her sparkle) and sparkle marker over the balloon and bow.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today! I hope you have a wonderful week :)
I stamped, embossed and colored these cuties using Copic markers. I cute them out using my Scan 'n Cut but there is also a coordinating die set as well!! I also stamped and colored the balloons and Happy Birthday sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Party Animal stamps.
I ink blended the inner panel using Distress Inks. I cut out the patterned papers using the Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid Spring 6"x6" pad. It's been a while since I used my patterned papers and I felt it gave a more festive look to go with my images.
