Skipping Stones Design Day 1- New Release!!!

Hello everyone!

Welcome to a brand new release hop for November.  Heather is working hard to bring you some great sets and here is one of them.



For my card, I use the new "FUNDERWEAR" set and it's adorable.

I stamped the panties with Versafine onyx black and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  I then used a sponge dauber and two colours of pink dye ink and coloured in the pretty polka dot panties and added some glitter to the dots.




I die cut the top panel with stitched rounded rectangle die and the bottom panel is embossed with a striped embossing folder and die cut it out with another rectangle die.  Then I popped up the bottom panel on the the card base that I stamped with a striped background stamp in grey ink.  I used wet glue to add on the smaller panel and popped up the panties on top of that. I finished off the card with a few pearl dots.

Well you have come to the end of the hop and we hope that you had as much fun hopping along with us as we did creating the cards for the hop.  Don't forget to comment as one lucky commentor will win a stamp set from the new release.


Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to join us tomorrow for day two of the New release hop.

Holiday Card Series - Day 2



Hello,  

Welcome to Day 2 of my Holiday Card Series.


I love the bold sentiments of the Joyous Christmas Sentiment set from MFT and I wanted it to be the main focus of my card.  I die cut the front panel and popped it up on foam tape then I stamped the sentiment in Versamark (which is a clear sticky ink that allows you to apply embossing powders) and heat embossed in white.  



I applied the distress ink to make it look like a snow hill and by added in the white and glitter dots, it makes it look like snowfall.  To finish off the card I added some sparkling clear sequins in 4mm and 6mm. 




Thanks for stopping by, see you again soon for Day 3!

Holiday Card Series 2015 - 12 Days of Christmas - Day 1




Hello everyone,


Welcome to my Holiday Card Series 2015.  

I will create and post 2 Christmas cards per week there will have a giveaway on the 12th day so be sure to stay tuned for more details when we get closer to the end.


Now on to my card.

I used mostly Lawn Fawn on this entire card with the stitched snowflakes and the new mini snowflake dies that were released not that long ago.  


I glued down the vellum by hiding the liquid adhesive behind the snowflakes which I popped up on foam tape.  I added some gem stones to the middles of the snowflakes to add some interest.  


Thanks for stopping by, see you again for Day 2!

Stamp & Share Challenge

Hello everyone,

We are here with our monthly Stamp & Share Challenge and it's a sketch with an inspiration photo with some of my favourite colours.  






For my card I used a couple of sets.  First one was the Dandelion Dreams for the sentiment and Grunge for the background.  I stamped it on the front panel which I popped up on foam tape and added some twine and wooden dots to finish the card.



Be sure to stop by the shop, our Sale is still on and a great time to pick up some Holiday stamps.


Thanks for stopping by, see you again soon!!

You're Amazing - Skipping Stones Design

Hello everyone,

I'm her today with another card using the Dandelion Dreams stamp set.  This is my all-time favourite set because it's so versatile.  I have a hard time with masculine cards but not with this set.


I stamped the images with distress ink and I sprits it with water before stamping it to my card.  I used first and second generation stamping to give it more dimension.  

I stamped the sentiment with dark brown in and finished it off with some sequins.  Just because it's a masculine card doesn't mean you can't add a little embellishment!  


Thanks for stopping by, see you again soon!

AAA Cards - Halloween for Everybody! Game 51

Hello everyone!!

Welcome to game #51 - Halloween for everyone!








As much as I love Halloween, I don't seam to create many Halloween cards, but I went through my stash and thought I would get creative.

I took the racoon from the Critters in the woods set and I took the bat wings from Monster Mash set and did some creative masking.  Then I added a mouth and fangs to the little guy so he would look more like a bat.  I then fussy cut him out and Voila!  You have a Bat-coon!




I stamped both backgrounds in Fog ink.  I die cut the front panel with a stitched rectangle die as well as a circle die at the same time so I could save a bit of time.  I found a piece of patterned paper from my stash and used it for the background of the Bat-coon.  I then popped it all up on foam tape to the card base.  I heat embossed the Happy Halloween sentiment with a platinum embossing powder on a banner die cut.   To finish off the card I used clear droplets and coloured them with my copics so they would match the card and added some clear sequins.



Thanks for playing along with us, I can't wait to see what you all create!
