Thinking of you card - Santoro Gorjuss Stamp Ladybird


Yay it's Thursday!!! For most it's just the day before Friday, but for me it IS my Friday!!! This has been a long work week, so I'm glad to see it come to an end. Okay now onto this Thinking of You card I created.
I used my Santoro Gorjuss Stamp - Ladybird. I stamped her onto white cardstock and then colored her in with colored pencils. I also used a black gel pen for the dots on her dress and her shoes. After I completed her coloring I hand cut her out (razor blade). I also decided to cut out the outer layer of her dress and used a glitter yellow cardstock in its place. I secured it together with double sided tape. The background papers are both from a pad of scrapbook paper from Michaels. I've had it so long, and have used it so much, that I no longer have the cover, so I can't tell you which pad it came from. One I cut the full size of the card, and the second I just did a wide strip. I then added a medium width silk ribbon. It's been in a drawer for a long time, so it was kind of wrinkled. I should have ironed it out, but honestly, I was lazy and didn't want to. :-) The sentiment is a pretty stamp that I lucked out and found at the Thrift store. Hard to believe some people donate their art and crafting supplies!! Yay me!!! :-) I attached everything other than the girl together with double sided tape, to attach Ladybird to the card I used foam tape. I love foam tape, and the dimension it gives.

Mad Hatter Spray Paint Art

This piece of art I created to enter into a contest. The contest rules was you had to create something using Oramask 813 Stencil Film purchased from    https://expressionsvinyl.com/ . I didn't win the contest :'-( but had fun making this piece anyway. What I used was a piece of semi smooth wood approximately 24"x18". I purchased the wood at Home Depot. The silhouette of the Mad Hatter (The Johnny Depp version) I found online. I transferred the silhouette into my Silhouette program, traced it in the program, and cut it with my Cameo. The Wording at the bottom is one of the scripts that came with my Silhouette program. I also cut it out with my Cameo. I then weeded the whole thing....it took a lot of time, but I think was worth it. I weeded it backwards, so there would be no film in the areas that I wanted the design to show. The only stencil I left was the stencil in the negative areas. Reason being this was to be applied to the wood and spray painted. First I add...

Fathers Day 2017 train card

Created this Fathers Day card using an image I found on a google search. My step father loves trains, so I looked for an image that had a train drawing in black and white. I used my silhouette cameo to draw the train out, and colored it using colored pencils and gel pens. I used double sided foam tape to secure it to the card. I then cut a circle of bronze colored vinyl to frame the train. I also used my silhouette to cut the vinyl. If you look above the card, you can see the bottom of the envelope, on this I also used my silhouette, and silhouette pens. The image I found another simple train and track image on a google search. The Happy Fathers Day I stamped and then embossed.

Enjoy Every Moment Card - Santoro Gorjuss Stamp Sweet Tea

This is one of the two cards I created last night. The image is Santoro Gorjuss Stamp Sweet Tea. This was the first time I had used this stamp. The set came with quite a lot of very nice stamps, I highly recommend it. I colored her skin and hair with Copic markers. The remainder of the image I colored with Dick Blick markers and Gel Pens. The image was stamped onto a thick white cardstock, and then cut out with a flower die I purchased off of Wish.com. The small flowers at the bottom were also cut with a flower die set off of Wish.com. The sentiment and background paper came from a paper pad from Michaels. Its the Craft Smith, Blush Glam pad. It is absolutely beautiful. The sentiment I attached using foam tape, the paper and image I used double sided tape. The flower I used Scotch Scrap bookers Glue. The rope embellishment at the top is from Recollections. I attached it with double sided tape. The center of the flower is from Bead Landing, Sticky Gems.  Copic Hair Colors...
