AAA Cards Challenge #67

Hello everyone!

You are going to go googley over our challenge.  It's all about googley eyes!  
Our wonderful sponsor for this challenge is www.stampendous.com




Now for my card.

When I saw the challenge for googley eyes I knew this is what I wanted to do.  At first I thought of having a card front full of googley eyes but then I opted to just add a cluster of them in the middle of my card. I added the sentiment from a SSS October monthly card kit with MFT liquorice black hybrid ink. 

I almost called it done but then I kept looking at the card and as we all do, thought I should add just one more thing and so I did.  I added the wonky lines to two sides and then called it done.

Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge #12 - SMDT

Hello everyone,

We are back with Challenge #12 for the Tic-Tac-Toe - Stamping Smiles designs.




My choice:  Doily-Layers & Dimension-Bird/Bees/Butterflies


For my card today I put a lot of elements into it.  Some days I am a minimalist and others I like to load it up!

As soon as I saw the birds/bees/butterflies I immediately thought of the Home Sweet Home (which I just realized that this set is now retired, sorry!) along with the Cirtters in the Burbs set.  I coloured everything with my copics and added some Wink of Stella to some of the critters. 

I don't know if you can see where my doily is but if you look at the grassy hill you will find it!  I coloured the white doily that I purchased from my local dollar store and added some stamped grass from the Critters in the Burbs and added some colour with my copics.  




I then took one of the cloud border dies and cut out a stencil from a piece of scrap card stock and used the Broken China distress ink to add the clouds in the background.  I glued down the doily and them added the fame die to the card panel with foam tape and the added the rest of the elements with foam tape and a few with liquid adhesive.

I cut out a banner from white card stock and cut off one end so I could add it to the base.  I stamped the sentiment and added the die cut "you" from Altenew to the card.

Don't forget to stop by and link up your projects.  We can't wait to see what you create!

Thanks for stopping by.

AAA Cards Challenge #66 - Watercolour

Hello everyone,

First I wanted to thank you all for a wonderful Birthday Bash Celebration.  Be sure to watch for our winner post coming up soon.  

We are back with another challenge and it's a fun one.  Watercolour.  I love watercolouring with lots of mediums and you never know what you can use either.  If you follow me on social media, you would have scene me to a couple of cards with gel pens.  That's fun because you probably already have these in your craft room.  Now they all don't work but it's fun to play around and see what does.




Our sponsor for this challenge is the amazing Happy Little Stampers

Now on with my card!

I used the Mama Elephant Freestyle Florals and heat embossed the images with white embossing powder on some Canson watercolour card stock.  I then took some Abandoned Coral distress ink and my water brush and watercoloured in the flowers.  I set that aside to dry and went on to the die.  I used the SSS painted thanks die and cut that out of black card stock.  

Once the watercolour panel was dry I then took one of the Lawn Fawn stitched rectangle dies and cut out a small piece from the images I coloured.  I popped up the panel with foam tape and added the sentiment with foam tape and liquid adhesive on the portion that was over the panel.

Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge 11

Hi everyone,

We are back with Stamping Smiles Designs Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge Eleven.  


My choice - YELLOW - INK SPLATTERS - SCALLOPED BORDER


For my card today I started out with the scalloped panel from WPlus9 and cut it out of white card stock.  I then used the ink splatter stamp from MFT as I wanted control over where the splatters went, and used SSS Duckling ink to stamp it on the panel.  


I then used a brushed alpha set and the beautiful sentiment and stamped it out with black ink, then added the yellow sequins.  I cut out a piece of patterned paper to fit the front of the card and added the panel with foam tape and the card was done.

Thanks for joining me today and see you again soon.
