Enjoy Your Day!

 Hi crafty friends!

I hope you are having a wonderful day so far!

Today I am popping in to share a card that I made with a couple of challenges in mind. 

The challenges are:

**The Color Throwdown: #736 (Yellow, Sage Green, Gray & White)**

**Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes**

**Use Your Stuff: #480 Animals**

&

**MFT Sketch #639**

Here is a look at the card that I created:

Isn't that little sloth so cute? I have had this stamp set in my stash for quite awhile now and never got around to using him until now. I thought he fit perfectly for the sketch as well as the color scheme that was needed.

 I started by building my card base with some papers from Lawn Fawn. I added a die cut circle, colored my images with Copics and created a little scene. I popped the sloth and one of the clouds up with foam tape for a little dimension. I added my sentiment under my die cut circle and completed my card with some white Nuvo Drops in the flower centers. Super easy! I love how bright and cheery it is!!

Copic Colors Used:

--Sloth: W0, W1, W3--

--Tree Branch: E23, E25, E27--

Here is the card that I created based on the sketch:

To create my card, I started with a white A2 card base, that I covered with some pretty plaid paper. I added a strip of white cardstock for the divider that the sketch shows and then added a panel of cloud patterned paper to the top. I stamped my images and colored them in with my Copic markers before cutting them out with my Scan N Cut. I popped them up onto my cloud background with some foam tape and added my greeting, also popped up with foam tape. I completed my card with some pink enamel dots and some glossy accents on the stars & hearts on the balloon. So sweet and so simple! One of the many reasons I love sketches lol!!

Under My Umbrella

 Hi crafty friends!!

I hope you are all having a wonderful day!

Today I have a cute and sweet card to share with you that I created using an image from 

Pink Gem Designs. 

Aren't these little Rainy Day Bunnies the sweetest?

I created my card by covering a white A2 card base with some springy patterned papers from Echo Park. I printed out my image onto a piece of white Hammermill paper and colored it in with my Copic markers. Once I had it colored in, I used a stitched rectangle die to cut it out. I stamped my sentiment along the bottom and then used a thin piece of the plaid paper to add a little separation between the image and sentiment. I added some crochet thread and then matted my image to a piece of green cardstock. I popped it up onto my cardbase with some foam tape and added some polka dots to the umbrella and her little bow. I completed my card by adding a little tab with an enamel heart to the top right.

Copic Colors Used:

--White Bunny: C00, C0, C4, RV10, RV000--

--Tan Bunny: E40, E42, RV10, RV000, RV52, R81, R83--

Happy Easter

 Hi crafty friends!

I hope you are all having a fabulous day so far!

Today I am popping in to share a card that I created using one of the new images released this month from All Dressed Up Stamps. 

This month, I was given the image called Egg Painting. 

I love all the images that were released this month but this one stole my heart. 

Isn't she just the cutest?

To create my card, I started with a white A2 cardbase. I added some plaid paper to the bottom before rounding the bottom two corners. Next, I added some pink patterned paper along with a white scallop to help separate the layers. I printed my image onto a piece of white cardstock and colored her in with my Copic markers. Once I had my image colored, I used a stitched rectangle die to cut her out and then stamped my sentiment before adhering her to my card front. I added some sequins, nuvo drops and a sheer ribbon bow to complete my card. I think this turned out so sweet!

Copic Colors used:

--Skin: E50, E51, E21, R00, R20--

A Trio Of Floral Jars

Hi crafty friends!

I hope your day is off to a wonderful start! 

 Today I'm popping in to share a card that I made for the new challenge that started over at the
 All Dressed Up Challenge Blog. 
They are always anything goes as long as you use a All Dressed Up image.

I thought this little trio of Jam Jars was so pretty, so I picked this image to work with this month.

I tend to make more "cutesy" cards so this image was perfect to make a birthday card with more of an adult feel. I started by coloring my image with my Copic markers and setting it aside while I worked on my card design. I covered a white A2 cardbase with some dark brown patterned paper at the top, some light blue cardstock at the bottom, and a floral strip to separate the layers. I rounded the bottom left corner & popped up my image with foam tape before adding a fun patterned paper frame on top. I stamped my sentiment and tied it to the frame before completely adhering it down. I completed my card with some glossy accent centers in the florals as well as some wink of stella shimmer for the jars but the camera didn't pick those up very well. 

Copic Colors Used:

--Jars: B00, B000, B0000, Coo, C1--

--Pink Flowers: RV52, R81, R83, YG61, YG63--

Hi crafty friends!

I hope your day is off to a wonderful start!

Today starts a new sketch challenge over on the

Try Stampin' On Tuesday Challenge Blog! 

Here is a look at the sketch:

Optional theme: Weather

Here is a look at the card that I created based on the sketch:

Ok, this card was so so so easy!!

I originally was going to go a different direction by using a stamped image, however while flipping through some of my paper packs trying to find some papers, I came across this one from Simple Stories that I have had for quite a long while. The great thing about this paper pad was that, on top of wonderful patterned papers, it had some really fun cut apart cards for pocket scrapbooking. So my original idea was ditched and a new one was born lol! I simply used the cut apart card to create my focal point and paired it with some patterned papers that coordinated. I added some little enamel hearts, crochet thread and some foam tape and my card was done!

It was so incredibly simple that while I had everything out, I decided to make a second card as well.

Here is a look at the card I created:

 

I am having so much fun playing with these cute little bees from Paper Pixel Prints!

For this card, I simply printed out the honeycomb image and colored it with my Copic markers. I fussy cut it out and then decided to print it out one more time so that I could add dimension by popping up the second set of bees with some foam tape directly over the flat bees. I adhered my image to the front of my card and added my sentiment before  doodling around the perimeter. I added a bit of patterned paper and a bow to the left side to complete my card. So simple yet so cute!

Copic Colors Used:

Happy Easter

Hi crafty friends!!

I hope you are all having a wonderful day!

Today I have a cute Easter themed candy box to share with you that I created using an image from 

Pink Gem Designs. 

With Easter right around the corner, I wanted to get a little jump start on making some little candy boxes and this little bunny from the Spring Bunnies set was perfect for this box! 

(There are 5 bunnies to choose from in this set!)

To create my project, I started by using the Milk Carton Die from Jaded Blossom and cutting it out in white, as well as the plaid layering pieces. I assembled my box and got to work on my bunny. I printed out my bunny onto some white Hammermill cardstock and colored her with my Copic markers. I used my Scan N Cut to cut her out and then popped her up onto a white die cut circle. I popped the circle up onto my box with more foam tape. I added my sentiment to the top of the box, filled it with some candy and used some mint green tulle to tie it shut. I added a little pink bow onto my bunny to complete my box. So so so cute!!!

Copic Colors Used:

--Bunny: E40, E41, E42, E44, R20, R00, R000--

--Chick: Y00, Y11, Y15, YR14--

Isn't that little bee darling?

I created a little scene with the flowers on the bottom and the bee on the tall flower from the Busy Bees Digital stamp set in Microsoft Word. Once I had everything positioned the way I wanted it, I printed it out onto some white cardstock and colored it in with my Copic markers. I created an A2 white card base and popped up a white scallop layer with foam tape onto the front. I stamped my sentiment & trimmed down the Bee scene to fit inside the scallop panel and added that to my card. I finished my card with some doodles around the perimeter, some polka dots on her bow and a little gem on the tall flower. 

Copic Colors Used:
