Teen Birthday!

Hello, I made this card for my Niece's 14th Birthday! She loves her laptop so Cyber Riley fit perfectly, but for this one he is Sophie!

I used this weeks sketch challenge SC286.

I used dp from a big pad I have from Prima called 'Rock On Love' I like the funky teen feel of this paper.

I coloured the image with copics. The card base is black and the dp panels are matted with melon mambo.

The sentiment is from a GinaK set called 'Many Happy Returns' I used it because the font looks like regular typed letters. I used the word window to round the ends. It's layered on the Modern label punch. I finished it off with ribbon.

For the inside, I used the same sentiment from GinaK, and I also used 2 stamps from 'A little Birdie Told Me' I randomly stamped them using black, melon mambo and green galore!

Thanks for stopping by,

Laurie

Cyber Teen Birthday!

Hello, I made this for my Daughter to give to her friend for his 17th birthday! I know it sounds like I'm repeating myself, but her friends are twin brothers so the card I posted earlier was for his brother!

I gotta tell ya we're pretty close to the US border, and just knowing people are smelling and eating turkey so close is making me crave some myself! Hope you're all enjoying your Thankgiving!

This card features Cyber Riley, and he can be found at his new home Riley & Company. I stamped him on white & coloured with copics. I masked him & sponged the background, but that looked horrible! so I cut him out & attached him to white. I also accidentally cut out his desk, but I wasn't completely happy with how I coloured it anyway, so his desk is now a piece of scrap dp!

The card base is black with a layer of kiwi kiss, and then the memory keepers Teen Angst DP.

The sentiment is from 'Birthday Whimsy'. First I stamped it in black, and then used the stamp-a-ma-jig to offset it with kiwi kiss. Then I cut it out with a die from the nesties 'Tag Trios'.

The sentiment is popped up, and I used black grosgrain with brads to tie it off. The brads were yellow, and I covered them with the copic YG03 to make them more kiwi kiss colour!

Tanya the new owner of Riley, just posted a challenge today on the Riley & Company Blog, you should check it out, it's a sketch challenge she sponsoring at Delightful Sketches & all the info can be found following the link. Plus the prize is 3 Riley stamps of your choice!

Have a Great Day!

A Little Perk Me Up!

Hello out there! This is a peek-a-boo box I made for this weeks Friday Challenge on the Hanna Stamps forum HSC78. This weeks challenge is hosted by Adela (adelaros) we were to make something 3-D and preferably with acetate!

You can find a tutorial for the peek-a-boo box here in the resources section of SCS. I found this pattern posted by mjtrudel. It makes a box 2.5" x 4.25" x 1"

I stamped Cyber Riley onto white and coloured with copics.

I made the window with an oval nestie, and added acetate. The stamp on the inside of the lid is from SU Yummy. I filled the box with chocolate covered coffee beans, so Riley has a little afternoon perk me up! No more falling asleep at the computer!

stamps: cyber Riley, SU Yummy

Paper: SU autumn vine dp, chocolate chip, blue bayou, white, acetate

Ink: noir black palette, chocolate chip

Access: oval/scallop nesties, copics, blue bayou ribbon, dimensionals, slot punch

Have a great day!

Hello Cyber Friend!

Yeah I got to play a couple SCS challenges this week! This combines CC227, using lavender, barely banana, black & white, and the ways to use it challenge WT227, seeing double! I used the same stamps twice, but the mirror image & there are 2 identical panels behind the image.

Ever have one of those days when nothing seems to fit! I mean no matter what you try or which direction you go, colour, sketch, embellishments etc. it just doesn't seem right? Well that was me with this card! I finally resigned myself to the fact that I wasn't going to like it, but I'd finish it anyway! and somehow in the end, I like it!!!!

Cyber Riley was just released this month at Hanna Stamps. My first thought was a more romantic card, possibly for a couple who met online or it could be for a co-worker. But since we've all met so many friends online through stamping I decided they were cyber friends! The images were coloured with prisma's but I used a C-1 copic to shadow. The "Hello" stamp is from the 'Things Hanna Would say' set. The oval stamp is from SU oval all.

Thanks for stopping by, I'll have another post today, so don't forget to come back!

Day 3 Peak 3 - I'd Rather Be Stamping!

Ok the chicken & veggies just went on the BBQ so I have time to upload another! I used the new Cyber Riley for this one...again turned into Sophie! I made this for my friend Sandee, it was her Birthday last week.

Sandee and her Mom first introduced me to stamping thru Stampin Up! I've been addicted ever since! Sandee is a single Mom with a full time job & she takes College Courses, but I know she'd much rather be stamping!

I coloured Sophie with copics, stamped and coloured an extra head, & popped it up. She's wearing a lovely dress by Basic Grey from their bittersweet collection! lol My original plan was to have here in front of the window with the Company name facing out, but not all the letters look backwords when placed backwards... like the G,R & D! Hygrade is the Compnay Sandee works for. That's what I love about making cards, you can really personalize them.

I used the Happy birthday EF, the sm star punch from SU, and the tag punches. The letters were made with the Just rite roman font.

Stamps: Cyber Riley, Justrite roman font

Paper: black, creamy caramel, white, regal rose, pretty in pink, Basic Grey bittersweet

Ink: noir black

Access: Happy Birthday EF

copics, lg & sm tag punch
