SCC week 4


Oh my this is the last week of summer card camp!! I have had a wonderful time. Learned new things and lucky to have two great card makers as our teachers. I am going to miss it and I sure hope they do this again next year!!! Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee!
I have to tell you that today I had this great idea for my card I just received my new stamp set from Lawn fawn called "plus one" adorable you can see their stamps here http://www.lawnfawn.com/. The paper I used today is basic grey hopscotch so cute. I paper pieced both the stork and the carriage. I used my spellbinders circle die and cut a small one out. Then I distressed it with broken china (leaving the circle die on my paper) I misted that with perfect pearls. I also used my papertrey die for the cloud and added pearls. I hope you like it as much as I do!! :) very happy... btw love this weeks colors!

SCC week 3





Hi everyone!! Well it's week three already! Wow this has been really fun. I enjoy all the videos I love learning new techniques!! Jennifer and Kristina are so talented and I enjoy seeing what they come up with :) Here are my two cards:
For this card I used a digi image Poppies. I colored with my copics and then die cut it with my spellbinders circle die. I used distress ink in the center ( ink antique linen). The stamps used for the background come from papertrey ink it is the Mehndi Medallion LOVE it!! This was my first time using it and I really like the doily look. I used Versa color scarlet for the larger image and the medium image I used archival moonlight white ink and the really small stamp I used inkadinkado in coffee bean. I punched out a dragonfly and my sentiment is also a digi stamp.

This card has the same background. I used a MS stamp for the flower and I used her color ink too. My little bird is from Maya Road. My sentiment again is a digi. 




 Thanks for stopping in!!

SCC week 2 encore!

Well I just knew I would have to break down and make a second card. I just love how this card turned out.
My image is a digi stamp from Whimsy Stamps called Beach Baby Jayme. I colored her with my copic markers, and  for the grass I used a MS stamp with distress ink peeled paint. On the umbrella I used my embossing pen and some clear embossing powder from ranger. Not sure if you can see that in my picture. I used a cuttle bug die for my background and used distress ink spiced marmalade to color. I added some ribbon and a ribbon rose with a pearl in the center.
As always thanks for stopping by :)
