Hello Baby Girl w/ WPlus 9 & Pretty Pink Posh!! =)

Pin It



Hello!!
One Last Card for the Water Color Blog Hop hosted by Pretty Pink Posh!! I'm also playing along with the WPlus 9 Throwback Thursday Challenge #4!! I was Inspired by Maureen's Design in the Card above!! =)
I had gotten the Unforgettable Stamp Set from WPlus 9 and the coordinating Unforgettable Dies awhile ago and I needed a Baby Girl Card for a Friend so I decided this was the PERFECT Time to use them!! =) I started by Stamping and Embossing the Sweet Little Elephant Image onto some Distress Water Color Paper!! I then used my Distress Markers to Water Color the Image!! I mixed SEVERAL Colors to get this shade of Grey!! =) I then Stamped and Embossed the Wreath from the Easter Blessings Stamp Set and did some Masking to OMIT the Sentiment that is on the Banner onto some Distress Water Color Paper too!! I Die Cut Several Spring Wreath Images and a Few of the Flowers as well from some Distress Water Color Paper that I had Water Colored and some Vellum too!! I then added some Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Marker to the Ears, Cheek, Nails and all the Flowers on the Wreath!! Then I added a SWEET Layered Die Cut Flower to it's Head!! =) I took the Tiny "Baby Girl" Sentiment from the Onesie Twosie Stamp Set and Stamped and Embossed it on the Banner!! I wanted the Sentiment to read Hello Baby Girl!! So I Die Cut the Hand Lettered Hello Die three times from some Distress Water Color Paper to add some dimension!!  I Die Cut one of the Stitched Borders 3 Dies in the Lower Bottom of my Water Colored Card Front and then added Foam Tape to Pop it up off the Card Front!! I added all of my Elements and then felt like something was missing!!?? So I decided to add a Few Confetti Images in Black from the WPlus9 Borders & Backgrounds Stamp Set!! I then added some of the Pretty Pink Posh Crystal Clear Sequins in both 4mm and 6mm and my Card was Finished!! I REALLY LOVE how it turned out and I KNOW it will be cherished!! =)

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by and I hope you have a Fabulous Week!!

Paper Trey Ink 8th Year Celebration ~ Day 5: Spring Into Action Challenge!!

Pin It



Hello!!
I'm stopping in to share the Sweet Card I made for the Paper Trey Inks 8th Year Celebration Challenge ~ Day 5: Spring Into Action Challenge!! I had gotten this Rattled Mini Stamp Set and the coordinating Rattled Die Set and planned on making SEVERAL Welcome Baby Cards beings I have so many Friends/Family expecting Babies and I hadn't used it yet!! So I decided to get it out and Ink it up and I'm SO GLAD I DID!! Not only did I get several cards made, but I LOVE the way that they turned out!! I probably wouldn't have created shakers with this set had I used it before, so I think it was MEANT to be!! I stamped the Image with Versa Mark Ink and then used some WOW Silver Glitter Embossing Powder to Emboss the Image and I LOVE the way it looks!! I then took the coordinating Rattle Die and Die Cut the Embossed Image to create a Window!! I backed it with PTI Clear Cardstock and then added my Foam Tape!! I then added my mix of 4 mm Pretty Pink Posh Sequins, a few Silver Star Sequins from Studio Calico and some Mini Sequins from my stash!! After adhering the Shaker Tag to my Card front I decided to add a Few more sequins to the Front of my Card front for a little extra sparkle!! I LOVE the way they turned out!! =)

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by and I hope you have a FABULOUS VALENTINE'S DAY!!

Paper Sweeties January Release Countdown!! =)

Pin It

Hello!!
Can you believe it is the Middle of January already!!??
I'm here to share the Paper Sweeties January Release Countdown!! You are going to just LOVE this Sweet Release as it is FULL of the CUTEST Baby Images and some coordinating Sweet Cuts to match!! =)
For My Project today I thought it would be FUN to make a Welcome Baby Card!! I started by creating the base out of some Patterned Paper from Pink Paislee and I added a Sweet Little Zig Zag/Straight Sewn Border and then I stamped the little Elephant Image from the New Bouncing Baby Stamp Set!! I layered it on top of a Circle Die Cut that I covered with Tim Holtz Pumice Stone Distress Glitter and a few Pinked Circle  Die Cut Circles using Paper Smooches Dies to mimic the Inner Circle of the Pink Doily I used to anchor it all together onto my card base!! I just LOVE the way it turned out!! =)

I hope you'll stop by the rest of the DT Blogs to see what everyone has created for the Paper Sweeties January Release Countdown!!
