Sweet November Stamps ~ A Fairy Cute Day

We have some more cutie-patooties entering the Sweet November Stamps shop today!

We have 6 new little fairies coming your way!

Today's card features the adorable little "Tia" from the "A Cute Fairy Day" collection.

To set the scene I used a variety of digital mushroom images: Amanita and Pixie Cap.

I had fun dressing her up!

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Crafty Meraki - All My Love

Happy Monday all!  Today I'm sharing one of the full cards from the Meraki Genesis for the January release from Crafty Meraki! 

Today's card features this bright and bold yellow bouquet called "All My Love".

I started by stamping this bouquet in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  Next I used the "All My Love Layering Stencil" set to colorize my image.  I actually used my Copic Air Brush System to color in the bouquet!  After coloring it in, I used it's coordinating die set, "All My Love Dies".

Next I die a background piece of paper for my card panel.  I used the beautiful "Sahara Symphony Background Die". 

Next I popped a frame from the "A2 Frame-Worthy Die" set and adhered my bouquet to the center of the panel.

To add the finishing touches on the card, I stamped out a few sentiments from the "All My Love" stamp set and adhered them to the card.   I also added some the black hearts from the "Black Iridescent Twinkle Treats Sequins".

Yellow is typically not my favorite color to create with so I decided that I wanted that challenge with this card.   I think it turned out pretty good!

Have a great week everyone!

Sweet November Stamps ~ Snow Glad We're Friends

Happy Saturday all!  Today I'm sharing another fun wintry card I created from the last Sweet November Stamps winter release!

I started my card by stamping this sweet little pair of snowmen from the "Snow Buddy Like You" stamp set using Memento Desert Sand ink.

I kept my Copic coloring very simple and tried to match it to my patterned paper by Catherine Pooler called "Through the Pines" patterned paper.

I die cut my stacked patterned papers using the Prism Studio from their "Stitched Rectangles Dies".

I stamped the sentiment in CP's Cranberry Fizz ink and then used a white gel pen to add some dots to part of the wording.  So simple!

Hope you're having a great weekend!

Catherine Pooler ~ Let's Party

Happy Friday!

StampNation is having a birthday this week!  We're turning 14!  Yup... it's been around for 14 years!

To celebrate, we're having a little challenge over at StampNation!  

The challenge is to make a birthday card.

So I pulled out the newest Catherine Pooler ink color, Blue Raspberry. I also pulled out Something Blue, Melon Ice, Garden Party, Limoncello, and Tiara.

I started by making my background.  I used the "Block & Script Birthday Background" stamp set. 

Then I pulled out the "Birthday Cake Remix" stamp set.  I stamped and die cut all of the elements of the 3 layer cake.  I also used some "Halo Embossing Powder" to create the frosting layers.

For the sentiment, I used just the letter die shapes of the "Party Word Die" and used 5 of my ink colors.  I wanted a little "let's" word so I pulled that word from one of the sentiments for the "Fall Finds" stamp set.

For the finishing touch, I used some Star Dust Stickles to add some dots of sparkle!
