Hi friends!

Today I am sharing my design team card for Amanda Jayne Designs featuring this adorable digital image called Heart Balloon Girl.

I chose to create a birthday card with her, however you could create other occassion cards with her as well.

I printed this little sweetie on x-Press It Blending Card and colored her with the following markers.

~Copics~

Fine details were added with Prismacolor Pencils

I fussy cut her out so I could add layers of colors behind her which I think makes the image show up better.

Bee Happy

Hi friends!

Who wouldn’t love this sweet and adorable little bumble bee buzzing around in their flowers??

This little cutie called ‘Bumble Bee with Flowers‘ is from Amanda Jayne Designs.

I printed this sweet little bee on X-Press It Blending Card and colored her with the following markers.

~Copics~
Gray: C9, C8, C7, C6, C5, C3
Yellow: YR23, Y15, Y11, Y00, Y000
Wings: BG01, BG000, BG0000, Y0000
Green: YG17, YG03, YG01
Pink: R32, R30, R00

The hexagon paper is a digital file I found on Etsy and love how it added interest to the background. To create the center secion I die cut a lacy square from Gina Marie Designs, cutting a cirlce out of the center so the print paper would show through. I then cut a white square to fit inside the black die cut, also cutting out a circle in the center.

The gorgeous flowers are from I Am Roses.

~Copics~

I love layers on my cards, but sometimes they just don’t fit the way I planned…so for this card I cut them apart and pieced them back together. The fishtail sentiment strip covers where they are all cut apart.

Hi everyone!

Oh my goodness, I’m so in love with this adorable little bear from Amanda Jayne Designs! Such a sweet and versatile image for all occassions.

This sweet image is called ‘Daisy Bear’ and can be found here.

This little cutie was printed on X-Press It Blending Card and was colored with the following markers:

~Copics~

The bottom panel was created with a notebook embossing folder which I turned sideways so the lines were vertical. To cover up the top of this panel I added a die cut scalloped border die that I had attached ribbon to. Once my card was put together I placed a few sticky back pearls on each side of the image.
