Thank You card

Here is a cute little card I made for my neighbour who gave us a big bag of fresh peaches from their tree. The stamp is from "Your Next Stamp" company, the saying is from Stamping Up. I used my cricut to cut out the background shape, and used my scallop circle for the inner circle. I used Pacific Point blue Stampin Up ink for the saying. Of course I coloured the cute image with my copics.

Your Next Stamp 1st Design Team Call

Here are my submissions for the first DT call for an exciting new company called "Your Next Stamp" (what a great name for a company!!) For my first card I used many different stamps. The first one is a C.C. Design stamp of the Polka Dot Bikini, the background and saying are by High Hopes Stamp. I coloured them in my Copics of course, I added sparkle with my copic Spica and Stickles.On the yellow polka dots I used my crystal effects to give them the wet look. The paper is from my "stash" and I am not sure what company they are. The second card is a High Hopes baby image, it is stamped on an embossed label from spellbinders. Around the image I sponged some "pretty in pink" ink from stampin up, it is done VERY lightely and didn't show up the greatest but you can see it a little. I coloured it for a baby girl, as the background also shows. Of course, it too is coloured with Copics. I added a "Labelz" for added show. At the bottom I added a few dew drops for extra show. Thanks for looking!! Have a good one!

High Hopes Challenge #37 - Stars or Stripes

This weeks High Hopes Challenge was Stars or Stripes. I decided to use both stars AND stripes on this cute little card. I used a Magnolia stamp this week rather than a High Hopes, just because ... well ... just because. I think this turned out soo cute. My 6 year old daughter helped to decide what stickles to use and where. I must thank her for her wonderful insight!

My bookmark

I decided to make myself a bookmark for all my summer reading. I use my magnolia stamps that I just acquired ... I think it turned out really cute. I used my copics to colour her, my name is at the top I used Making Memories Rub ons.

High Hopes challenge 36

For this week's challenge we had to use our paper from our scrap pile. I do this a lot so this wasn't too bad. I did these for my girl's teacher and one for the bus driver! I hope they love them!

High Hopes Challenge #35

This weeks challenge was "Lotta circles". My High Hopes image has been cut with my circle template, and the background was embossed with my Cuttlebug circle and dot template. I added some buttons for extra circles!! I used my copics to colour little Anthony and added some stickles for extra glitter. I am going to give this card to my hubby for Father's Day ... sure won't be a surprise since he has seen it already ... but at least he can't say he didn't get one!!! Thanks for the ideas!!

High Hopes Challenge 34

For High Hopes Challenge 34, we had to create a card from the sketch shown. I used High Hopes Stamp set ... I made this for my father for Father`s Day next weekend. Thanks for the great sketch!!

B-day card

Here is the card I made for my husband`s grandmother. I thought she would really get the humour in it and not be offended in any way. The image is High Hopes

Birthday party Invites

I slightly re-vamped my daughters b-day invites because I didn't like how the paint looked, so here are all of her invites that are going to go out to her friends tomorrow. It is a Big Lady Theme, with a tea party, crafts and treats. It should be fun!

my daughter's b-day invitations

My daughter has a b-day coming up so I thought I would make her invites. She is turning 5, and she is having a "big lady" party where the girls will come in adult clothes (like dress up) we are going to have a tea party (with real tea cups they can take home). I am also going to do a craft and a few games like you would play at a baby shower or wedding shower. She is so excited. The image is from High hopes, the "5" was a stencil that I painted in her choice of colour (green is her fav.) using MM paint, the saying is cut from my cricut Beyond Birthday. The inside was embossed using a cuttlebug template and then I chalked the words to make them stand out more. One down ... 7 more to make!!! It was a lot of fun and I am happy to be able to make something special for her big day!

High Hopes Challenge #33

Here is a cute little Father's Day Card I made for my Father in law. I used the stamp "Anthony James", I coloured this image with my copics, tombo, and used 3 different colours of stickles. I cut the background out using my Wild Card Cartridge for my Cricut. This was so much fun to make, I really had to think of what would be best for this card. Thank you! Hope my FIL likes it!
