Jessica Lynn Original Stamps Guest Designer for February

Hello my friends!!! I am so happy today to be a Guest Designer for Jessica Lynn Stamps. That is one more reason why I loove social media specially Instagram... You post and create and you never know what is going to happen with the things you post... Maybe one day you wake up to an amazing message inviting you to Guest Design, the next day you make a new crafty friend, or the next day you realize an amazing comment totally cheer you up on a terrible day!!!

My card today was totally inspired by the love that is in the air....

CARD DETAILS:

To start with this card I cut the base with the Gina Marie Ric Rac Nested Rectangle Die and used Oxide Inks first with a layer of Spun Sugar very light, then with Worn Lipstick and finally with Candied Apple... I splash a little water to this panel.

I had a blast coloring this sweet Puppy from Jessica Lynn Original called Hot Dog Dachshund with Zig Markers in colors Oatmeal, Brown, Beige, Yellow and Wine Red.

To finish this cute card I used Nuvo Glimmer Paste Moonstone with a heart stencil leaving the part for the sentiment without the glimmer paste. I stamped the sentiment and add some sequins in the doggie colors. I adhere this panel to a black card base for contrast...

He is the cutest little doggie ever!!! Check out all the Jessica Lynn Original stamps at her Shop HERE.

I hope you like my card have a wonderful day!!!

Doggie Shaker Bits

Hello Friends Welcome back for another Quick Tip Wednesday!!! using Brutus Monroe stamps and products, every Wednesday you can find a blog hop at the Brutus Monroe blog featuring a product or technique of the week!, all the Design Team works very hard to share great inspiration for you!! You can find the hop HERE. This week we are Shaking things off a little bit. For this week I wanted to create a masculine shaker card with a fun twist.

CARD DETAILS:

I started creating a card base for my doggie and a window for my shaker. I then used a shaker pouch to create the shaker window.

All you need to create different shaker shapes is your dies and a fuse tool. Using the fuse tool, you trace the shape of your shaker window in the shaker pouch leaving an open area to fill the shake. To fill my shaker I used some stamped bones from the set, some hearts and some beautiful Brutus Monroe Sequins. After I filled the rectangle I sealed it with the fuse tool and apply adhesive to the front panel of my card to glue the shaker pouch to it. After that you will find that the shaker pouches have adhesive in the back so all you have to do is peel the back and adhere the shaker you previously created to the card base. I finally adhere the cute doggie with 3D foam and glue some black and red stripes to coordinate with the colors of the card and stamped the sentiment.

This shaker pouches are so much fun and very easy to use... I hope I can inspire you to give this awesome product a try to create easy and not so bulky shaker cards.
