I chose a fall theme card that features these super adorable little foxes from the Happy Fall Foxes Stamp Set. I couldn’t resist…just look at those sweet faces and big fluffy tails!!

I stamped these little sweet little furballs on X-Press It Blending Card with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with the following markers.

~Copics~
Foxes: YR27, E99, E97, YR21, Y21, E51, E93, W1, W00
Feet: W7, 5, 2 – E44, E43, E42
Green: YG97, YG95, YG93, YG91, YG21

I started with a 5×5 card base with the top two layers being 1/8″ smaller each layer.

To create the shaker element I die cut the leaf shape once out of the orange print paper, the word paper, and 5 times out of thick white card stock. When you cut this die it gives you a frame and a plain leaf from the center. I used the inside portion of the leaf frame die for the background of the shaker frame.

I attached the white tulle to the back of the orange leaf frame with double sided scor-tape and then attached the first white frame with more scor-tape. The remaining 4 white frames were glued to the tulle ‘sandwich’ one layer at a time. I then added my shaker bits on top of the word print leaf and carefully glued the orange frame stack to the card front making sure that it was lined up perfectly. I used white tulle for the shaker front instead of acetate so I didn’t have a glare on the front.

The dies used on my card:

Concord & 9th – Stitched Leaves Card Front Die
Lawn Fawn – Stitched Maple Leaf Frame
Lawn Fawn – Stitched Leaves
Spellbinders – Mini Fall Blooms

Gingerbread Kisses & Christmas Wishes

Leave a comment

Hello and welcome!

I am back today with another guest card for Copictopia Creative featuring the adorable stamp set called ‘Gingies Clear Stamp Set‘.

I love the smell of gingerbread cookies baking…yummm!

I stamped these cute little Gingies on X-Press It Blending Card and colored them with the following markers.

~Copics~

Brown: E55, E33, E31, E30, E50
White: C3, C00
Red: R46, R29, R24
Cheeks: R32, R30
Fine details were added with Prismacolor Pencils
White Gel Pen

My idea was to make the Gingerbread cuties look like they were part of a Christmas garland. To achieve this I punch tiny holes in their hand with a paper punch and tied them together with red and white bakers twine. The bright red paper I used for the background is from the Hot Cocoa Time 6×6 Paper Pad.

As always, you can find an abundance of adorable images for sale here.

Batty to the Bone

Leave a comment

Hi friends!

Aren’t these bats just the cutest little things?

These sweet bats are from the this month’s new release at Ink n’Splatter Stamps. These little cuties are from the Little Boy Boos Halloween Stamp Set. Coordinating dies are available here.

The sentiment that I used on my card is from the Sweet and Spooky Halloween Stamp Set, which also has coordinating dies available here.

These little cuties were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on X-Press It Blending Card and and were colored with the following markers.

~Copics~
Bats: W6, W5, W4, W3, W2, W1, W0, R20, R30, R00, R000 – White Gel Pen
Pumpkins: W4, W2, W1, W0, R20, R00
Moon: W4, W3, W2, W0, W00, YR30, E40
Fine details were added with Prismacolor Pencils

I had the coloring done and images cut out before I even knew what I was going to do with them. I had recently purchased the Lawn Fawn Platform Pop Up Die and the coordinating Platform Pop-Up Add-on and decided I would try a box card for a change.

The paper I chose had an orange print on the opposite side, so I had to come up with some creative thinking so that wouldn’t show…orange kind of clashes with pink…lol! Once I had that all figured out I dug through my dies to find things that would go together and that would fit inside the box.

With the box, grass, fence, and tree being all black I decided to cut out some cloud shapes to resemble a creepy ground fog.

To create the moon, I die cut a circle with the X-Press It Blending Card and just started blending colors together until I thought it looked like a moon.

Hello and welcome!

Can you tell how much I love the color pink and that I have a great love for flowers? I could spend the entire day out in my gardens! I am always excited when the flowers are in full bloom.

My design team project for I Am Roses today features an older stamp from Stampingbella called Daisy Squidgy.

I stamped this darling image on X-Press It Blending Card with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored her with the following markers.

~Copics~
Skin: E04, E11, E21, E00, E000, E0000, R20, R30, R00

Yellow: YR23, Y15, Y11, Y00
Greens: YG67, YG61, YG17, YG11, YG03, YG01
Blue: BG01, BG000, BG0000
Grays: C4, C3, C1, C0

The gorgeous I Am Roses flowers I used on my card are:

R2-15 -Mini 1/4″ or 1 cm White Paper Open Roses
S10-15 – White Small Craft Paper Flowers
R6-00/J – Size 1″ or 2.5 cm Mixed 5 Roses
R5-15 – Indian Jasmine (1″or2.5cm) White Paper Flowers
S10-921 – Size 5/8″ or 1.5 cm – Small Achillea Cottage – White – Soft Pink Center

I am always trying to find different ways to make the dies that I have work for my project. With that being said the white strip behind the image was too long for my card, so I cut a chunk out of the middle of it and glued it to the pink matting behind it. As it is behind the image you can’t see that it was pieced.
