            HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!! 

How EXCITING!! Paper Sweeties is CELEBRATING their 6th Anniversary!! 

For my Project today I wanted to create a SWEET Engagement Shaker Card!! I've used several sets to create a Sweet Scene and I just LOVE the way it turned out!! I used the Thinking of You Stamp Set, Jake Stamp Set and the coordinating Jake Sweet Cuts Die Set, Abigail Stamp Set and the coordinating Abigail Sweet Cuts Die Set, Wishing You Stamp Set, With Love Die Set, Faith Hope Love Stamp Set, Hippity Hoppity Stamp Set, and the Happy Fall Ya'll Stamp Set to create my Card!! I Stamped and Embossed onto Patterned Paper for Abigail's Dress, Jake's Pants, Sweater Vest and the Bouquet in Jake's Hand!! I Stamped and Embossed everything else onto White Stampers Select Cardstock and used my Copic Markers to Color everything and to add some Shading to all of the other Images!!


I wanted it to be a Shaker Card so I attached and piece of Vellum over the Front of my Shaker Element and used my Sewing Machine and some Metallic Platinum Thread to Sew it onto my Card Front!! Give it a SHAKE and the Elements will float around!! Plus the Sound of it shaking is kinda FUN too!!

 I LOVE the way it came together and I even decorated the inside of the Card with some of the NEW Products!! I LOVE being able to personalize the inside of my Cards!!  

NEW August Products are available today!! Lets take a look!! 

Congrats

Congrats Sweet Cuts

Paper Sweeties Inspiration Challenge - June 2016!! =)

Pin It


HELLO!!
I'm here to share the New Paper Sweeties Inspiration Challenge ~ June 2016!! I wanted to make a SWEET Scene card and I just LOVE LOVE LOVE the way it turned out!! I just LOVE how ALL of the Paper Sweeties Stamps coordinate and you can Mix and Match between the different sets to create SO MANY AMAZING Designs!! I started by Stamping and Die Cutting both Emma and Jack!! Then I've used the At the Beach Stamp Set and the Surf's Up Stamp Set to Create the Elements for my Beach Scene along with using the Outfits for my Doll Images!! I Water Colored all of the Images with Distress Inks except for Emma and Jack, I used my Copic Markers to color them!! I've used the Party Time Stamp Set and the Coordinating Party Time Die Set for the Balloons!! After I Water Colored the Balloons I used my Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Marker to add Sparkle and then coated them each with Four Layers of Wow Clear Embossing Powder!! I wanted to add some Flower Embellishments to my Girls Outfit so I used the Flowers from the Faith Hope Love Stamp Set and the You Are Tu-Tu Sweet Stamp Set!! The Base Background of my Card was Created using a PTI Balloon Bash Cover Plate Die!! I Die Cut it from Distress Water Color Paper and then used Tumbled Glass Distress Ink to Water Color it!! Once Dry I backed it with Vellum and then Colored on the Back Side of it with my Clear Wink of Stella Marker!! Its hard to see in the Picture, but in real life it just REALLY adds to the whole Birthday Scene Design!!

I hope you'll stop by the Rest of the AMAZING DT Blogs and the AWESOME Guest Designer Blogs to see what they have created!! I CAN'T WAIT to see what you create!!
