Hello!  Amy here with a Hooray!  Let's celebrate a birthday!!! 

I've paired the adorable mini stamp set, Oh Snap,  with the new HOORAY Elle-ments for a simple birthday card.  Spun Sugar Distress Ink was blended in the center of a white notecard.  The Star Frame Elle-ments was die cut from light pink cardstock and layered over the ink blended background.  This panel was die cut using the Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments.

The word HOORAY was ink blended with Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron Distress Inks and was added to the die cut stitched panel just above a 1/8" strip of black cardstock.  The sentiment was stamped in black ink below.  The alligator was Copic colored, die cut, and added to the Star Frame with foam adhesive.  To finish, a few tiny clear gems were added randomly to the stars on the Star Frame.

Sweet Swines Week - Day 3

Hello!  Amy here using Sweet Swines which includes the adorable pig on a scooter!  

I created this scene using the Cloud Mat Elle-ments.  I love the piercing details on every cloud.  You can choose to use the entire panel full of clouds but here I eliminated a few at the bottom.  I also decided to add foam adhesive to most of them for dimension along with the frame that was adhered over a Distress Ink blended background.  

To ground my pig on a scooter, I simply added a white heat embossed black sentiment strip at the bottom to mimick a sidewalk.  To keep with the colorful scarf he's wearing, I added a Star Frame Elle-ments and stamped the tiny star stamps from Sweet Swines in all the little stars on the Star Frame.  Finally, I added my pig over the Star Frame and added a flag that says, "Yippee"!

Critter Crew Week - Day 1

Hey, it's Caryn here with a colourful card featuring the fun Critter Crew stamp set and co ordinating dies.  I just love these wee guys Heather has created and love to see where they're going to pop up next.  For my card I created a background using Distress Oxide inks splattered with gold spray and adhered a Polka Plate die cut over the top to break up the background a little.

Next I stamped the Critter Crew twice and fussy cut around the front "layer" so I could have them popped up to give a bit more dimension to the scene.   I coloured them all with Copics and for some bling I added Avery Elle glitter to their hats!

For some added sparkle I die cut the Star Frame using gold glitter adhesive paper and placed it onto the card before popping the Critters on top.  To finish I stamped the sentiment in (from Toucan Party) in gold embossing powder and added it to the front of the card.

Supplies used:

Critter Crew Clear Stamps 

Critter Crew Elle-ments

Polka Plate Elle-ments

Star Frame Elle-ments

World's Greatest Week - Day 2

Hello friends,
Katie here today to share with you a funny card featuring the World's Greatest stamp set. It's not every stamp set that includes a "farter" sentiment, so my inner 4th grader and I couldn't resist using it on a card.

I stamped, colored and die cut the trophy image from World's Greatest and added the sentiment (hee hee). Next, I added some little bunnies to the mix from the Party Pals stamp set.  They are the perfect size for fitting inside and next to the trophy. 

I die cut the Star Frame Elle-ments from white card stock and added color with a few shades of Distress Oxide inks.  A frame cut created with the Pierced Mats Elle-ments holds everything together.

Supplies: 

World's Greatest Clear Stamps

Die: World's Greatest Elle-ments

Party Pals Clear Stamps

Die: Party Pals Elle-ments

Die: Pierced Mats Elle-ments

Die: Star Frame Elle-ments

I hope this card made you giggle. I have the perfect "farter" I mean "father" in mind for this one!

Thanks for stopping by!
