Action Wobbler: Miss You

Hey There Everyone, 

 

This Monday is turning out to be a pretty day.  I actually hear birds chirping.  :)  That's a good sign that spring has arrived.   

 For today's post I am showing you a card I made with "Simon Says Stamp" stamps.  I love this light bulb.  I think it is so cute with the heart in the center. 

 

I colored the image in with my copic markers and then did a little bit of fussy cutting to cut out the image.  And used my action wobbler to pop it up on the card.  The paper is from Basic Grey "Hey Girl" line.   

 The white background is stamping with Hero Arts Unicorn White ink pad. 

 

I got this stamp in my Simon Says Stamp monthly card kit.  So much goodies in the kit that I can't wait to play with it some more.  

 

Hope you are having a great start to your week & Thanks for stopping by!

For today's project I wanted to use this stamp I picked up at Michael's.  For those that know me, know that I love Owls.  I just think they are so cute.   

The base of the card is from a card paper pad by DCWV.  I did cut it down a little to fit the image better and corner rounded the bottom corners.

The Stamp is by Stampendous.  I stamped the image with Momento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it in with my copic markers.  Then I did a little bit of fussy cutting to cut out the image.  

I stamped the sentiment (from Inky Antics) with versamark onto red card stock and embossed with white embossing powder.

Feel Better Soon-Card

Hey Everyone,  

While my friends are at CKC enjoying themselves today, I am stuck here at work. Yuck!  To turn this frown upside down I decided to share with you the last card I posted, since it was only a sneak peek.

Here is how I made the card.  The card measures approximately 3 1/2 wide x 5 inches high.  This image is from one of my most favorite companies: Whipper Snapper Designs.  The stamp is called "Sunflower Pitcher".  I stamped the image on white card stock with Momento Tuxedo Black Ink.  

The colors of Copic markers I used are: 

cool grey:  C1, C3 & C5

Yellow:  Y32, Y35, & Y38

Brown:  E01, E13, E19

Green:  YG03, YG06, YG09

Purple:  BV00,  BV01,  BV04

and I also used Colorless Blender when needed.  

After the image was colored, I cut it out with a tiny white border all around.

For the card itself:  I stamped with Hero Arts "Friend Definition" background stamp.  Inked it up with my Pool Party Ink pad by Stampin Up.  Stamped off and then stamped on my card for a muted look.  Took some pattern paper along the left side with a tiny strip of green card stock to give it more of a FINISH look.  I used my corner chomper by WRMK and corner rounded the corners on the right side of the card.  I softened up the card a little with some yellow ink around the edges of the card with a sponge.  Next, I stamped the Sentiment "Feel Better Soon" from Stampin' Up Hostess Set called Express Yourself on scrap white paper and cut out to look like a pennant.  I inked the edges with yellow ink. Glued down the sentiment to the card about 3/4 of an inch from the bottom of the card.   I laced the button with some twine, tied in a bow and then adhered the button down with glue dot. Put some pop dots on the image and adhered above the sentiment.After I finished the card, I felt like it needed a little something else.  So I took my Clear Wink of Stella, Glitter pen by Zig and went over the center of the sunflowers to add a little bling.  I am not sure you can see it in the picture but in real life it is so cute.  

Be sure to check out "The Crafting Journals" Blog Cindy has an awesome blog post this week on how to make a address book out of flash cards.  Check out this post.

Thanks for stopping by.  :)

Good Morning!

Hi Everyone,

I am not sure about you, but I had a difficult time getting up this morning.  This usually happens when I get up early when hubby gets up and I have a hard time falling back to sleep, that when I finally do fall asleep I have a difficult time getting up.  

Oh Well.  I made it to work, so that is a bonus.  {SMILE}

I am sharing a card with you that I finished up over the week end.  The paper is by Cosmo Cricket- Social Club & the stamp is from Outlines.  (who is no longer in business)

This is an oldie but a goodie card.  I actually created it back in May of 2011.  I had some extra kits from the Stamp Club that I used to teach at the LSS.  I figured I might as well use them right?  I already had the base and the layering part already done so I just had to finish up with the coloring with my copic markers.

Instead of doing this card landscape like I did the last time I decided to go portrait.  Then, instead of using the red satin ribbon I decided to use my Tea Stained Seam Binding Ribbon.  (can be found here:  in my ETSY SHOP.

Thanks for stopping by today.
