Just Add Sprinkles and a Candle


Hello Friends!  Today I have a card that I created the new Trinity Stamps Just Add Glitter Stamp Set and  Coordinating Die Set.  I'm think that I might have added too many sprinkles but then again, can you really have too many sprinkles?  I think not.

For the background on this card, I used the Puffy Cloud Layers Stencil with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink on a piece of white cardstock cut to 5.25" x 4.0". 

I cut the fence from white woodgrain cardstock using the Picket Fence Cut Out Die. This die isn't long enough to go all the way across the bottom of the card, but you can easily line it up to die cut twice. It will need to be 4.0" long.  The little piece of grass was cut from green cardstock using the Outdoors Borders and Scene Builders Slimline Set.  Once I had that grass line cut, I trimmed it to 4.0" x .75" and glued at the bottom of the fence.  

I used the Just Add Sprinkles Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies to cut out my little friend and the cupcakes. 

I colored them with Copic markers in the following colors:

  • E50, E21, E23, E25, E29
  • R11, R20
  • RV21, RV04
  • B0000, B000
  • V04, V06, V17
  • Y02, Y08, Y19

For the sentiment on the outside of my card, I used the new Simply Sentimental: Sprinkles Stamp Set and Coordinating Die set.  For the inside sentiment, I used the sentiment that came with the stamps set.

To finish up my card, I popped up my little friend and his cupcakes on some foam dots to give my card a little dimension.  Then I added some little sprinkles to the sky. Yes, I did go a little overboard on the sprinkles, but I think is looks really cute!

This was such a fun card to make and fairly quick because there wasn't a whole lot of coloring to do.

Cosmic Crunch





Greetings earthlings!  I just can't seem to get enough of this new Crafty Pantry Die Set by Trinity Stamps.  

Last year, Trinity Stamps released a full outer space–themed collection, and I enjoyed it so much that I still return to it. I also love mixing pieces from different releases—it builds your stash and sparks new ideas.

This would be an absolute blast to give to someone who loves all things outer space!


The supplies that I used for this card are:

Hey Cutie Circle Card

 

Look at how cute this cutie is!  This is a new orange die that works perfectly with the Circle Shaped Card Die Set by Trinity Stamps.  I added the "cutie" and sentiments from the Hey, Cuties Stamp Set and coordinating die set.  To step this card up, I added the little orange to a wobbler!

The orange slice background on the front of this card was cut using the Orange You Glad Circle Card Add On Die Set.  To help create a little extra dimension, I used three different colors of orange cardstock and dusted the edges of the slice pieces with a little Cracked Pumpkin Distress Oxide Ink.  

I selected the Copic colors to color my little cutie, based on the shades of the orange cardstock.  


I heat embossed the sentiment on the front of the card and used the coordinating dies to cut it out.  The sentiment on the inside of the card is stamped directly on the cardstock.  

Don't forget to add a little sparkle to the front of the card with a few Gold Sparkle Spots.

This is a very quick card to make, and the orange background could be used for may occasions.  I was thinking it would be great for a brunch invitation.

Champion In The Making

 


Every now and then I come across a patterned paper of die set that I just have to have.  This card has both of those.  The paper is called Vintage Carnival and it is by Crafter Companion.  I love the vintage look that is throughout the entire collection.  The die sets are from Simon Says Stamps and they are Prize Ribbon and Festive Bunting.  

Of course, it is one thing to have great paper and some cool dies, but I needed to tie the two together with a stamp set.  I felt like this had a nostalgic baseball feel, so I decided to us the adorable stamp set by Pajama Crafter Stamps called Champion In The Making.  I think this little fella makes just the perfect focal point and the Fan Finger and Baseball Mitt balance out the whole card.  Everything about this stamp set is perfect from the baseball images to the sentiments.  I used two of the sentiments for the front of the card and one for the inside.  


I used Copic markers to color my little friend and his accessories in the following colors:

  • W00, BG70, BG72 - blue gray
  • W00, W1, W3 - gray
  • E50, E34, E35 - hair
  • E50, E51, E53 - skin

I am just thrilled with the way this card turned out.  Don't you think he is just so handsome?

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have been inspired to color a little champion yourself.
