Curtain Call.......Happy Easter

Happy Monday Peeps!

Today I am sharing card I made using the challenge Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge.

I started by making my BG piece. I am obsessed with this technique. I used some water color paper and distressed inks. The colors I used are Peacock Feathers, Picked Raspberry and Spun Sugar. I used lots of water to keep these colors very pastel. I love the look.

The main image are some stamps from Lawn Fawn called Eggsrta Special Day. I stamped the images onto somewhite card stock and colored with my distress ink pads. I used my Wink of Stella pen to color with like using a blender pen. The image is so sparkly IRL.

I used the same colors as above plus Spiced Marmalade and Dusty Concord. The basket is painted with Stampin Up's Crumb Cake ink pad.

The bow and the egg with the jelly beans falling out of are stamped onto some scrap paper, colored, cut out and added to the image with some foam tape.

The sentiment is stamped with the Peacock Feathers ink. 

The image is matted with some Pretty In Pink card stock, the very last piece I could find. I need to find some more of this ASAP. I added the image to my water colored BG with more foam tape and tilted it slightly cos I love wonky panels!! :)

The base of the card is white and then a layer of pink card stock and then another layer of white.

I then added some bakers twine and a few iridescent sequins to finish it up!

Sweet Sunday.......You're Earresistible

Happy Sunday Peeps!!!

Time for another new Sweet Sunday Sketch.

Such a fun sketch this week, you know I am a big fan of tilted panels a;tho this one kinda gave

me fits when putting my card together. LOL!!

I wanted to use my new Lawn Fawn set called Eggstra Special Easter. I got the idea to make my chocolate bunnies from one I saw on the Lawn Fawn Blog.

 I stamped the Bunnies with Versmark ink onto some Early Espresso card stock and embossed with white embossing powder. I colored the bows and ears with some colored pencils. I cut them out and set them aside to make up the rest of the card.

The base of the card is Crumb Cake card stock and then all the DSP is matted with Early Espresso card stock.

The DSP on here is from some retired SU packs.

The main panels is some retired bashful blue card stock that I embossed with another retired SU embossing folder. I hand cut some Pear Pizzazz card stock for the grass area.

The sentiment is stamped with Early Espresso ink onto some Crumb Cake card stock. I cut the end into a banner and curled it a bit. I attached it just under the bunnies.

I finished it up with a few gold sequins.

Now be sure an head over to the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge Blog to see all the amazing design teams creations with this fun sketch!

Freshly Made Sketch....Whale

Happy Friday Peeps!!

Today I am sharing a card I made using the sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches:

As you can see I took a bit of creative license with the sketch. I used one large flag instead of three smalls, but the basic idea is there.

I got this cute little Lawn Fawn stamp with matching dies recently and I thought it was perfect for this sketch. I stamped the two whales onto some white card stock and  colored with my copic markers. I then used the matching dies to cut them out. Same with the little heart.

I die cut a circle and added some DSP from the High Tide pack.

I popped up the whales and heart using some foam tape.

The sentiment comes from the same little set and I curled it around a bit to fit the circle and stamped using some Calypso Coral ink.

The large flag is made using a piece of paper from the same DSP and I hand cut the bottom and curled it up just a bit.

I added a bit of icicle stickles to the heart and a few silver sequins to finish it up.
