Ramen Love

 Hello!  

Punny card, anyone?  I always love a good pun, and this one fits the bill.  It is from the Sweet n Sassy Stamps Punny Love Stamp Set.  

Isn't this the cutest?!  The image was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then colored with Copics.  It was then fussy cut out.

  I used the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches and die cut 3 circles, one of which I stamped the sentiment on with Versafine Black Ink.  The elements were adhered to the card; the middle circle and ramen bowl being popped up on scrap cardstock.  Sequins finish the card.  

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Valentines are for the Birds

 Yep, me again!  

Valentine's Day is right around the corner so I pulled out some of my favorite Valentine critters.  This quirky bird is one of my favorites. 

 I was inspired by the sketch at MFT Sketch Challenge.  

This sweet bird is from Sweet n Sassy Stamps Valentine Critters Stamp Set.  He was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copics, then fussy cut out.  

The panel down the left hand side is done with a stencil and ink, then spritzed with water using my Tim Holtz Distress Sprayer for a watercolor look.  There is a tutorial at Splitcoast Stampers that calls this technique Stencil Monoprint.  

The sentiment was stamped with Versamark ink and then heat embossed with Gina K Fine Detail Gold Embossing Powder.  I finished it off with a few enamel dots.

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a blessed week!

Happy New Year!

 Hello, Hello and Happy New Year!

It has been a while- a long while.  I had the urge to craft on New Year's Eve-yippee!  I was not really sure I was ever going to be interested in cardmaking again, but here we are- at least for one day!  

I immediately headed for challenges to get inspired.  I used the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches for this birthday card.  

Here is the sketch I used~

I started with two beautiful roses from Sweet n Sassy Stamps.  The first is from the Rose Banner Stamp Set.  When stamping this image with my MISTI and Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, I masked out the banner.  The second rose is from the True Beauty Stamp Set.  Both roses were colored with Copics and fussy cut out.  

My background is made with my Gel Press Plate, acrylic paint and a brayer.  My sentiment is from the SnSS Birthday Wordfetti Stamp Set.  I used my MISTI and Versafine Black Ink to stamp.  

Simon Says Stamp Moonshine Sequins finish off the card.  

I am also linking up to the Krafty Chicks for their Anything Goes Challenge.  

Thanks so much for stopping by!
