Bouquet of Happiness

 Hello my crafty friends! Today I have a video to share featuring a couple of cards I created using the Not 2 Shabby Shop  Bouquet of Happiness stamps.

For my first card I made a slim line card base 3 1/2" x 7 1/4" and combined the Pug In A Cup stamp using masking to create a little scene. I adore this image so much. I stamped, embossed and colored up the images using Zig clean Color Real Brush markers. 

I used a stencil from La-La Land Crafts and Distress Oxide inks to create the brick wall. I think it turned out so cute!!

For my second card I stamped and embossed the floral image all across the front of my mini slim line card panel. I then inked it up using my Distress Inks.

I stamped and embossed the sentiment and popped it up onto foam tape. And for a finishing touch I added some gems from Pink Fresh Studios.

Here are the products I used:

La-La Land Crafts February Club Product Kit

Hi everyone! I'm so excited to be guest designing for La-La Land Crafts using an amazing new subscription kit ! I created two cards using the Club La-La Land Crafts February 2021 Club Product Kit to share with you today! The kits are a monthly subscription and are a great value! This month's kit is 50s Retro-themed.  There are three ways you can subscribe: the Product Kit which includes both the rubber stamps and a set of exclusive Dies, the Stamp Kit which includes just the stamps OR the Dies Only Kit. To receive the kit I'm sharing today you would need to subscribe before February 28th.

Here's a video for a closer look at this release:

For my first card I colored up the adorable Retro Marci and the skating poodle from the Good Times stamp set using Copic markers. I also cut out the Jukebox Die and colored it using Copics as well. For the background I used the brick stencil from the On the Wall Layering Stencil set. 

To create the tile I used the checker stencil from the Everything Is Rosy Layering stencil set , distress inks and clear embossing powder to heat emboss and give it a shiny coat with dimension.

 For my second card I wanted to feature the two other club kit dies. How cute is that little box of french fries?!! The milkshake is also so fun to color and put together. 

I also used the patterned papers from the Love You More 6x6" paper. I created the tiled table top using the Large Stitched Tag Dies.
