Cuteness Overload!!

Hello! I just had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend with my family here in Canada and I’m super grateful. To start this week off, I have two super cute cards from our Creative Team!

First up we have Ashley’s Happy Birthday card!

Oh boy, this card is so full of positive energy!! I love how Ashley made this colorful background using the Waterspout Stencils 360TM. Good news is that this stencil already comes in the Stencils 360TM Starter Kit!

Ashley cut her card panel with the Dots Meet Dashes Large Rectangle Overlays for some added border detailing.

Using the Waterspout Stencils 360TM, she chose a turning interval of 30° and blended a variety of rainbow colors for her background using Distress Oxide inks (Festive Berries, Carved Pumpkin, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron, Salty Ocean and Wilted Violet). She chose a pair of adorable puppies from Fun Night Out for her focal images, along with some accessory images and coloured them in Copic Markers.

To finish off, she added some gems to give it the extra sparkly look! Such a fun and happy card!

Next we have Bobbi’s slimline creation. Her card measures 3-1/2″ wide X 8-1/2″ tall, and she paired the Never Lose Hope Shadow Dies with the Happy Track and Field (Chapter 1) stamp and coordinating die sets.

I just love the composition of this card! She used the trio of fans in the centre and added the Never Lose Hope shadow die as her bold sentiment. I love how she gave each fan the extra colorful flag to wave! Super cute!

She stamped the leaping frog head, cut that out using the heart shape part of the shadow phrase die and added it to the heart in the word “HOPE”. This resonates with the frog leaping on top!

Additional windy swirls were added using a Uni-ball Pen Signo white gel Pen to complete her card.  The sentiment “Take a Leap of Faith” adds the perfect finishing touch.

Thank you so much Ashley and Bobbi for your amazing creations!

Penguin Party Scene with Anja!

Hi everybody! To kickstart the weekend, Anja is back with us to share a cute friendship card, featuring our Penguin Agenda stamp set and coordinating Penguin Perfect Cuts.

For the background, Anja used the Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo on the Cyber Wallpaper stencil.

Besides stamping out cute images from the Penguin Agenda stamp set, she also mixed in some small images from the Fun Night Out stamp set. She colored them with Spectrum Noir markers and die cut them with the coordinating Penguin Perfect Cuts. I love how the penguins are holding up drinks and a microphone!

After the transfer gel was dried, she put the flock transfer sheet on her background and ran it through her die cut machine.

To finish off, she stamped out a sentiment pulled from the Fun Night Out stamp set, “Let’s Wiggle and Giggle All Night”, with Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink.

Thank you Anja for sharing this lovely creation! The penguins sure look like they’re a great time!

Thanks for stopping by our blog, have a wonderful weekend!

A Happy Disco Dancing Scene with Anja!

Hi friends! Today Anja has in store for us a beautiful and clever scene, created from the Home Sweet Home stand-alone die, and the Fun Night Out stamps  and coordinating Penguin Perfect Cuts.

She stamped out all of her images and colored them with Spectrum Noir markers. Always love a little white gel pen accent!

She used the Cross Stitched and Dots Small Rectangle Overlay stand alone dies to cut out the frame for this card. I love how she used the Home Sweet Home stand alone die to create a scene of inside a pub – how clever!

I love the night sky blended using Chipped Saphire Distress Oxide Ink with the touch of gold splatter ink mimicking a starry night! For the wallpaper inside the pub she chose Victorian Velvet over the Cyber Wallpaper stencil. She then used Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink for blending the floor.

To finish, she stamped out the sentiment “Let’s Wiggle and Giggle All Night” with VersaMark ink and white heat embossed it on dark blue cardstock.

The critters were adhered to the card with foam tape for the added dimension.

Thank you so much Anja! This card is so clever and lovely!

Thanks for stopping by, have a great day!
