Life Preserver/Scrappy Tail Crafts

 Hello Friends! Today I wanted to share with you a very easy card you can create using many of the new products from the latest release Set Sail!

CARD DETAILS:

So every time I think of sailing or nautical themes I think of white and blue horizontal stripes, for my card today I created a background using white and blue stripes on a kraft cardstock and my focal point is the super amazing A7 Life Preserver die, as you can see even though this dies are for A7 cards you can also use them on A2 cards.  

I love this new dies because of the details but they are also easy assemble.  I then stamped inside the Life Preserver one of the amazing sentiments included in the stamp set Guiding Light, I finally added some gems and this card is done!  Such a fun card to create again great masculine card but also for many other occasions! Thank you for stopping by today, I hope this inspires you to create with the new release!

                                             

Sunny Studio Stamps for their 7th Birthday Blog Hop and new Fall & Holiday Release

Hi there! Today I’m joining Sunny Studio Stamps for their 7th Birthday Blog Hop and new Fall & Holiday Release as a new Design Team Member, how amazing is that? I have been a fan of Sunny Studio for a long time and I am honored to be part of their team!

CARD DETAILS:

For today's hop, I am sharing this card featuring the oh so adorable new stamp set Squirrel Friends.  I first started with the background, when I make a card I almost always start with a color combo in mind so I decided to ink blend my background with Oxide Ink Peacock Feathers leaving the center of this panel almost white, I splatter some water and sparkle watercolor too. I then started coloring all the squirrels, to color them I used:

E29/E27/E15/E13 starting with the darkest color. I then die cut the Autumn Tree die and three pumpkins from the Pumpkin Patch die and I added some color with oxide inks Vintage Photo for the tree trunk and Ripe Persimmon for the pumpkins.

I also used different tones of orange markers on the leaves.  I then started assembling the card using 3D foam tape to have different dimensions and finally I added the frame from the Fancy Frame Rectangle Dies, I used one of the fun sentiments from the squirrel set too.

I hope you enjoy today’s card and have fun hopping along remember there is a $25 gift code for all of you joining us and leaving comments on the different stops on the hop!

Sparkling Flamingoes

 Hello Friends Waleska Galindo here, very happy to be sharing some creative time with you today!   I want to share a card I created with some of the newest released products, I am in love with the Flamingo Pair Dies.  For my card today I used a lot of sparkle, let me share how I created it.

CARD DETAILS:

I started by die cutting all the pieces to create the flamingos, (the pieces are very easy to layer) for my flamingos today I used glitter cardstock in two different tones of pink.   For the eyes and beak I used white cardstock.  After I assembled the flamingos I started working on the background.

For the background I inked a 5x7 piece of cardstock with Peacock Feathers Oxide Ink, I then cut the A7 Aloha Tropical Leave cover plate die with a green cardstock and inked this piece with Lucky Clover Oxide ink.  I adhered this two pieces.  I finally cut a smaller rectangle to adhere the flamingos and inked this piece with Kitsch Flamingo Oxide Ink.

Thank you so much for stopping by today and spend some time with me!  I hope you can be inspired to create lots and lots of sparkly flamingoes cards!  Have a great Day!

CARD DETAILS:

I started by die cutting the Whimsical Layering Daisies dies in white cardstock, I wanted to create a beautiful color combo for this daisies so I googled and search for my inspiration, at the end I decided to use this as my inspiration:

Some beautiful orange and pink daisies.  To recreate this tones I used oxide inks in colors  Dried Marigold and Picked Raspberry. I started in the center with the picked raspberry and the inked the rest of the flower trying to blend this two colors together.

I then die cut the stems and colored them with oxide ink Twisted Citron and adhere them to the flowers.  The center pieces of my flowers I colored them with copic marker Y15 and add them Lawn Fawn Chunky Glitter for some sparkle.

For the background of my card I used Stormy Sky Oxide ink and some water splashes.  I adhere all the flowers to make them look like they are all on a field full of daisies and finally I added some sequins for even more sparkle.

I hope you like my card today and can be inspired by it! Let the inspiration begin!

Kindred Stamps April Release Blog Hop featuring Family is Forever

Hello Friends, today I am super excited to introduce you to one of the new and adorable Stamp sets from the Kindred Stamps April Release:  Family is Forever... I love this little girl and friend enjoying the sun and beach that I created not one but three cards showcasing this amazing new set.

CARD #1  DETAILS:

I started creating the background for this cute friends, I almost always like to use two or three tones on my cards to have a harmonic effect.  I wanted to create a beach scene with warm tones, to do that I used oxide inks in colors, squeezed lemonade and worn lipstick.  I then stamped and color the cute girl and friend with markers.  I color the sea water with salty ocean oxide ink and some water splashes, for the palm tree and sand I used kraft cardstock  and for the palm leaves I used oxide ink cracked pistachio.

I finally added some white clouds and stamped one of the sentiments from the stamp set OHANA!! I have to say I am in love with this cute couple of friends you can use for many occasions and for many different scene cards.  I hope you can be inspired to create something amazing with the new Kindred Stamps Family is Forever stamp set.

CARD #2 DETAILS:

For my card #2 I cut a white card base and smooshed the lightest oxide ink color Squeezed Lemonade after that I also smoosed Worn Lipstick and Salty Ocean mixed with water.  I colored a bunch of tropical leaves with Cracked pistachio Oxide ink and for the flowers I used markers as well as with the cute little girl I finally stamped the word ALOHA and added some sequins.

CARD #3 Details

I again used the same colors to create a little scene, I cut an oval from the white card base to be the window and adhere it to the back of the card also with the waves.  I colored the cute little girl and friend and adhere a bunch of leaves colored again with  Cracked Pistachio.  I adhere the characters with foam tape and add a little bit of shine with sequins.

Fairytale Dreams

Today is the second day of the Craftin Desert Divas

April release and we are sharing the new and adorable

"Fairytale Dreams" stamp set... which has some of 

our favorite Fairytale girls from all time! 

My sweet girl Liah loves this set! you know why...

For this set of cards I used lots of Dies from 

Craftin Desert Divas so I wanted to share with 

you all the things you can do with even the smallest

of dies that come on each set! All you have to do 

is think outside of the box... As you know already

scene cards are my favorite so I had the best time

making this set of four cards...

The first card is an ocean theme so I used the 

great waves from our Outdoor Landscape Dies

and for the back of the ocean I used the mountain

from the Scene Builder dies which I love because

you get so many dies that can be used in many 

different ways, for all the cards I used the 

Fancy Frame Dies to give a unified look to the set of four.

I wanted an Oriental look to this one so I used

the little Tree Trunk from the Scene Builder Dies

to make some branches and make one of those beautiful

trees with pink flowers, the small flower is also a 

new die from this release!

For this into the woods scene card I used the

Scene Builder Dies again and I also used the 

little leaves that come in this set to make some

colorful wind and I also added sequins in different

colors, all of the cards are colored with distress inks.

This card was my last and I wanted to give the

look of a swamp so I used the leafs that come in

our Inside Scalloped Circles dies in a deep

green and added some gold stickles to give the 

look of a bunch of fireflies.

All the sentiments on this set are Awesome!

I hope you liked my cards and can be inspired

to make a card to a special girl of simply have

fun with this set! this and the whole release

will be available on Friday! Be ready to Shop!!!

Hugs,
