Love Moo!

 


Hi there!  This card is featured on the Crafty Stamp Instagram Hop today.  Of the cards I made for this release, this one was my favorite.  I love everything about this card, from the adorable Highland Cow to the colors of the patterned paper.  I may just have to keep this one.

For this card, I used the new Hielan Coos Stamp Set and the new Summer Lemon and Daises 6x6 Patterned Paper.  

I had colored both of the "Coos" but found that it make the card too cluttered in the center, so I just went with one, which really made it the focal point of the card.

I colored my little friend with Copic markers in the following colors:

  • YR21, YR23, YR24 - Body
  • YR30, E50, E51, E30, E31 -Head
  • E41, E81 - Horns
  • E13, E25 - Hooves
  • R01, R11 - Ears

For the background of this card, I shopped my stash and found a few dies that would tie the whole card together.  

I used a sentiment from the stamp set to finish up this card.

Jump on over to the Crafty Stamp Co shop and make sure you get both the stamp set and the patterned paper, you won't be disappointed.  

Thank you for stopping by today.

Positive Tate - Neuro Sparkle

 

Hello and happy Saturday.  Today I have an extra special card to share with you.  This card is the final card of Crafty Stamp Co's Inspiration Week.  

The stamp that I used to create this card is called, Positive Tate- Neuro Sparkle and the colorful paper is from the new Perfect Piece 6x6 Patterned Paper Pack.

Crafty Stamp Co created this stamp and patterned paper in support of Autism Awareness Month in April. They are donating 100% of the profits from this stamp set to the Autism Research Institute as part of their commitment to kindness, awareness, and community.


I used Copic markers to color in Tate in the following colors:

  • E21, E34, E13, E25 - Tate
  • YR16, YR07 - Orange
  • Y00, Y08 - Yellow
  • B02, B04 - Blue
  • R14, R29 - Red

I think I like the small sentiment at the bottom of the card the most.  It says so much.

I hope this fun and colorful card has inspired you to create a card of your own.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Bees & Honey

 


Hello!  Today I have another card from the new Crafty Stamp Co. release. This card was such a joy to make and I just love it.  It is the size of an A-2 card but it is kind of a drop down card.  


This stamp set is called Bees and Honey.  I colored my images to coordinate with the new 6x6 patterned paper called Buzy Bees.  

My honey jar and little bears are colored with the following Copic colors:

  • E50, W51, E31, E23, E57 - Bears
  • Y21, YR24, YR18 - Honey
  • BG10, BG13, BG57 - Jar Cloth, Outfits
  • B0000 - Wing Highlights
  • T0, T1, T2, T4 - Outfits
The sentiment is included in the stamp set.  I stamped it on white cardstock and then trimmed it out with a little of the patterned paper.

I love everything about this card.  

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have an amazing day!

Easter Hugs - Trinity Stamps Craft Roulette #308

 


How about a card with a little gift enclosed?  This card is my entry for the current Craft Roulette Challenge.  I liked all the parameters, but did struggle a bit with the one that included a bookmark.  I created a little pocket on the front of the card, but liked the card much better with it placed it inside of the card.  What do you think?


This weeks parameter are:

  • PROJECT:  Card with a bookmark
  • COLORS:  Circus Colors
  • ELEMENT: Hug(s)
  • RANDOM: Feather(s)

SUPPLIES:

    Trinity Stamps

    Simon Says Stamps:
    • Darling Duckling
    Lawn Fawn
    • Stitched Bookmark
This turned out to be a darling little Easter card.  I will definitely have to use an A-7 envelope to accommodate the bookmark. 

Thanks for stopping by today!
