CAS Hello featuring Concord & 9th

Hi crafty friends!

Stopping in with a quick card today, another featuring the hello lovely stamp set from Concord and 9th.


I started off with a white card stock panel and stamped the floral outline in smoke ink from SSS and stamped over in various colors with the inside pieces. I love that the stamps give a pretty rough watercolor look!
I adhered my panel off set onto some some card stock and adhered that onto an A2 white card base.
To finish off my card I scattered some Sparkling Clear sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.

That's it for my card today!!
Thank you so very much for stopping in today!!

Spring is Here Shaker Card

Hello crafty friends!

 I have a cute Shaker card to share with you today featuring some of the cute new products from Pretty Pink Posh March release. I love Shaker cards, they're just so fun and fun to make!





 For this card I started off with with 2 A2 sized pieces of watercolor paper , one that I die cut using the Stitched Notes dies to create the outside framed, I then watercolor my frame along with the background using distress crayons. I'm loving the look of distress crayons lately for water coloring, they give such a bright, happy look. I then started to create the Shaker elements by adhering acetate using fun foam as my dimension and filled up with a bunch of fun colored sequins from PPP (I will list all below). I stamped my characters from the Friends Forever stamp set on separate watercolor paper colored in using Zig markers and cut out using the coordinating dies, I die cut the picket fence and adhered it directly onto my shaker element and adhered my cute characters on top.
For my sentiment I stamped it from the Easter Friends stamp set on one of the labels that I die cut from the Stitched Essentials dies , trimmed of the end and adhered onto my card.

That's it for my shaker card today!
I hope you enjoyed!

For You CAS card featuring Paper Smooches

Hello!
I have a quick CAS card to share today. For this card I once again used the adorable Courteous Cuties stamp set from Paper Smooches.

I started off with a panel from white card stock that I trimmed slightly smaller then an A2 card base. I die cut a hexagon on this panel from the Stitched Hexagon dies from PPP. On my white card base I ink blended some Lavender and Sea glass ink from SSS. 
For the critters I stamped them separately on watercolor paper and colored in with Zig real brush markers and fussy cut them out before adhering on my card. I stamped my sentiment from the same stamp set in the hexagon area and added some sequins from PPP to finish off my creation. 



That's it for my card today!! 
Hope you enjoyed, thank you so much for stopping in!!

Easter Theme Week for Pretty Pink Posh

Hello crafty  friends!
I'm on the Pretty Pink Posh blog today 
 to share an Easter card for Easter theme week!









For my card today I used the adorable new Easter Friends stamp set to create a cute shaker card.
To start my card off, I used a light blue A2 sized card based and stamped the patterned Easter eggs in the stamp set in the same colored ink all over for a tone on tone background. Moving on to the fun shaker area, I used the Scallop Circle die with some purple card stock to cut out my circle, I also die cut a piece of fun foam with a die to use as my dimension to create my shaker piece, however you can use foam adhesive, I just didn't feel like cutting it down into thin strips and I prefer that the fun foam is a little thinner. Once I had my acetate attached to my scallop circle along with my foam for dimension it's on to adding all the sequins and elements. I wanted to be able to see the background of my card through the shaker, which makes it a little trickier to add the elements without a backing, what I find easiest is to put something heavy on the card to hold it down and then place all the sequins and seed beads in a small area where you want the shaker piece and then adhere the shaker element right on top. For my shaker I used the Hydrangea beads, Lilac beads, Clear Confetti mix , 3mm Sparkling Clear sequins and I also added a few colored Easter eggs in there that I colored in with Copic markers and cut out using the coordinating dies from the stamp set.
I stamped my cute little Easter bunny and the rest of the images on white card stock, colored in with Copic markers and cut out again using the coordinating dies. I adhered my images onto my shaker element and stamped my sentiment to finish my card off!

That's it for my shaker card! 
I hope you enjoyed my Easter shaker card created with the adorable new Easter Friends stamp set.

Thank you so much for joining me today!

Thanks Lovely featuring Concord and 9th

Hello!

Hope your all having a lovely day!
I have a floral card to share with you today featuring the Hello Lovely stamp set from Concord and 9th! It's such a springy stamp set! I could totally use some spring right now, its still super chilly here so I'm channeling spring in my cards! :)


I started my stamping the outline stamp of the flower on kraft card stock,along with the sentiments and trimmed of the end. I stamped the inside of the flower with Lavender ink from SSS and Mint ink from SSS for the leaves. Before adhering my kraft panel onto a white card base I stamped the 'lovely' sentiment on the white card base lining it up with the original sentiment so it gives the look of it hanging off.
I added a thin strip of silver sparkly paper onto the bottom and finished off with scattering some sequins from PPP.
