My second card uses the set Chalk it Up.  I Copic colored my bear along with the chalk sign.  I used Copic N10 for the chalkboard and then white heat embossed the sentiment.  I ink blended some clouds in the background using a hand made stencil.  Everything was put together using the new Double Stitch Window Confetti Cuts.

Chalk it Up 

*********************************

My third card uses School Days.  I again used the Double Stitch Window Confetti Cuts and was able to stamp a row of pencils across the opening using my Misti, moving it 1/4" each time.  The pencils were Copic colored and a sentiment stamped in black above.  To round out the card, I added a stamped, colored and die cut globe and apple.

I love a white on white card especially paired with a colorful focal point!  I used the Geo Panel Confetti Cuts done on white and layered onto a white note card.  The tulip images from the new set Tulips are amazing and fun to color!  I added some Copic colored tulips to a galvanized tin and wrapped it with some twine.  Just like you would see in farmhouse decor!  Kept it simple with a white sentiment strip to ground my image.

I have a couple of cards to share using the add-ons from this month's My Monthly Hero Release!

My first card uses the Cherry Blossom Fancy Die and a sentiment from Zen Messages.  I kept this very simple but added a few details to really bring the Cherry Blossom to life.  After die cutting all the blossoms, the centers were Copic colored and blended.  Then fine glitter was added to the centers of the blossoms.  The blossoms were layered over the branch image and a sentiment was stamped in black ink.

My second card uses the new Dreams Will Blossom.  

Again keeping this simple, I stamped, colored, and die cut one main image.  Abandoned Coral Distress Ink was lightly blended in the background.  Score lines were added to the left and bottom sides.  A sentiment from the same set was stamped to ground the image and a few flat sequins were added.

My third card uses the adorable Kittens in Kimonos.  This set is just adorable!

I started by stamping the background using the new Parasol Pattern Bold Prints background stamp in a light blue ink.  My kitten and parasol were Copic colored and cut out.  They were added on a sentiment strip using a sentiment from the Kittens in Kimonos.

SugarPea Designs / Meadow Motifs


Hello!  I am here showing off a card using Meadow Motifs from SugarPea Designs.  This was a release last year and one of my favorites. 

***To shop, click this link:  SugarPea Designs***

To build my card and keep it simple, I used the Card Front Element Builder for all the stitching layers.  I love white space with a pop of color.  The larger blooms from the set were Copic colored and die cut.  They were arranged over a panel with Press 'n Seal so that several of the greenery images could be stamped in the background in bold black ink.  Then the colored images were adhered over the top.  I really like the look of the non-colored images in the background!



To finish with a sentiment, I white heat embossed two sentiments from Everyday Sentiments onto black cardstock.  These were then die cut using the coordinating dies.  The sentiment strips were added with foam adhesive and a few clear gems were sprinkled across.


Thanks for sharing a part of your day with me!
