Paper Inspires

Happy Sunday! How's your labor day weekend going? Mine is filled with homework and card making ;)

Today I made a card with the new Lawn Fawn Jump for Joy stamp set. I've wanted this since I saw it in the Simon Says Stamp Masterpiece box, so I'm super excited to finally be able to craft with it.


I first stamped the images with Versafine ink on Bristol paper, which is my favorite paper to use with Zig Clean Color Markers. The branches were stamped with a dark brown ink. I then colored in the images and attached it with foam tape.




I embossed little details on the images using the Versa Marker and gold embossing powder. I also embossed the sentiment using the same powder.

I hope you enjoyed today's card!

Happy Sunday! :) In today's card, I decide to use the MFT Beary Special Birthday stamp set. I love all of the sweet little bears.

 To start off, I colored in the images using Copic markers. I decided to keep these bears white, so I just added a bit of shading with some light gray.



For the background, I die cut the MFT Gift Box Cover-Up out of white card stock. To add some color, I blended Distress Inks (Spun Sugar, Squeezed Lemonade, Tumbled Glass...my favorite combination!) onto the card base.

To finish off the card, I added some Glossy Accents and embossed the sentiment in gold.

Hello! Today I thought I would share a surprise card I made for the Ellen Hutson Pinstripes challenge. It uses their Diagonal Window die to create the surprise element.

Hello! Today I am featuring the new My Favorite Things Magical Dragons stamp set on a card I plan to give to a friend that is heading to college.

To start off I first stamped and die cut the dragon using the MFT Black Hybrid Ink. I then colored it in with Copic markers, using my favorite blue-green colors (BG11, BG13).



After that, I stamped the cloud with Simon Says Stamp Fog Ink. After that, I die cut the white background using the Mama Elephant All Prettied Up die set. I love how sweet these dies are!

To create the sky background I used the MFT Stitched Cloud Edges as a stencil and Broken China Distress Ink. I then embossed the sentiment on vellum. As a finishing touch, I used a white gel pen to add little specks to the dragon, and I attached Simon Says Stamp Moonshine sequins.



Have a great day! :)
