Get Well Soon Card

This is the card that I was working on my desk during WOYWW.  It's a get well card for a friend.  I used Art Impressions People Clear Stamp Set - Get Well.  I found mine at Michaels.


Here's the card:

And the inside

And a closer up side view:

Yesterday people asked what the tiny bits were on my desk on WOYWW.  They were the pill bottles I made.  I used the pill bottle stamps from the AI set.  I colored them then I did one of my favorite things.  I covered them with 3D Crystal Lacquer.  After they dried I cut them out.  Gave some nice dimensions to the bottles. 

Here's a closer view:

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I appreciate any comments you want to leave.

Have a good day!

PS.  My BFF April made a card with the same stamp.  You can see her card on her blog.  I'm really digging that die she used.....might be another one I have to get.  I need more die storage!!!  LOL

AI Challenge 180 - Watercolor & White Pen

I made this card for the Art Impression Challenge 180 - Watercolor & White Pen

Here's my card:

The stamp set I used is the AI Zoo Crew Deep Breath Birthday (Sku#4471) .  I water colored the image using Zig Clean Color water color markers.  I fussy cut the images and used a 3D ZOT on the cake, and a action wobble on the fish.  I added a little white pen to the cake to give it a little more dimension (well, plus it was required in the challenge!).   I also used the Zig Clean Color markers to create the background. First I colored with two shades of blue then bushed with water to blend.  Then I spritzed with water mixed with perfect pearls. This gave the background some shine and also water spots. I highlighted some of the water spots with a white pen to make them stand out more like bubbles. 

I stamped the sentiment from the stamp set on some pink paper and cut it out with the Stampin Up  Balloon Bouquet Punch. I cut out the strings and bow for the balloons using a Lil' inker die - Balloon String Die.   I added some highlights to the balloons using the white gel pen.

 

Here's a video of the wobble action. 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by & have a great day.  If you have moment please leave a comment - I LOVE to read them all.

Sympathy card

I needed to make a sympathy card and I thought I would try using negativity. It really makes the picture pop.  I got this idea when I visited page by Melissa Dawn Lane - Sunset – Beautiful Negativity.   She also has a great step by step slide video.  I gave it a try and here's my final result.  I really like the results.

 

Here's the inside:
 

First I made the sunset using a Stampin Up colors : Temping Turquoise, Daffodil Delight, and Tangerine Tango. 

I then stamped the tree image from Stampin' Up! Thoughts & Prayers Stamp Set.  The sentiments are from the same set as well.

 

 

 

I cut down the tree and sunset and taped it on some orange cardstock.  I then cut an oval in black with my Lil Inkers Stitched Ovals.  I used 3M mounting tape to pop the black card stock over the tree with the sunset.

 

Thanks for visiting!  Have a great day.

 

As always any comments are always greatly appreciated!
