I'm excited to be posting my Seize the Birthday card today as the Surprise Party Guest, having been one of the winners with my card for the Fancy Fold #307 challenge!
Another Christmas card for my box - using another new Better Press Plate and Die set called Poinsettia Corner. I inked the Better Press Plate with Better Press Black and colored the poinsettia spray with Copics.
I made 6 of these in one seating - 3 with blue poinsettias and 3 with dark pink poinsettias.
Another card for the Christmas box - a clean and simple design using Holly Jolly Better Press Plate and die set - an easy design to make 6 or more at a time! (which I did!)
Sending my card to:
Today at Inkspirational - we have a new Designer's Choice Challenge -
Nonni is the Designer this time and her choice is:
I have 3 guinea pigs, 3 die cut postage panels and 3 enamel dots!
My friend asked me to make this birthday card for her grown daughter, Lindsay, who has and loves guinea pigs!
Today's the day all of the cards sent around the world in June are revealed over at the Card Chain Challenge. I've missed the past two months because of my shoulder surgery - but I'm back and crafting to participate in the June Challenge.
This month I received a card from Dagmara in Poland and I sent this card to Linda in Michigan!
I used the suggested themes of Gingham and Friendship on my card.
I used recently purchased (during my convalescence I couldn't stamp but I COULD shop on line!) die set called Primitive Sheep as well as the sentiment from Sheepish Moments and the paper Colonial Americana - all from Whimsey Stamps.
So please check out the Card Chain Challenge and join in with us for July - you have until July 6th to sign up- all details on how to join in are over at the blog!
I'm also sending my card to:
Here is my 1st card for the June Group of Seven Cardmakers post.
This month we are playing with Second Generation Stamping - when you stamp an image fully inked then stamp it again without reinking either once or twice. You'll find a link to Videos on the technique over at the GO7 Blog.
It creates a wonderful depth to your card design.
I made this card at the request of a friend - personalizing it for her with her daughter Jessicas name.
I used Hey Honeycomb Flower Power Dies, Hey Honeycomb Basics Die, and Hey Honeycomb Sentiments Stamp Set from The Greetery. She also has a balloon die set and an ice cream cone die set as well as honeycomb circles already cut out but I used some rainbow honeycomb paper that I already had from Inky Antics and used a circle die to cut it according to the paper instructions.
I used the Flying Seagull Fold for my card design which I found on YouTube
