Happy Birthday

Hello friends!! Giovana here with a new post. Today I am bringing you a Fall Birthday card. I really like how it turned out. For my project I used Fall Garden image and the sentiment is from Sweet Sentiments.

I stamped the image on White Cardstock in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, colored the image with Copic Markers, then added some shades with Prismacolor Pencils. I added a strip of Yellow cardstock and matted it with Patterned Paper and added stitches. Then stamped the sentiment in Coffee Archival Ink.
Added gold sequins and Start Dust Stickles and White Opal Liquid Pearls to the flowers.

Super easy to make and to mail too!!

Hope you like it!
Have a fantastic day.

Thinking of you

Hello friends!! Happy Labor Day to all my USA friends! My family and I are taking it easy today, yay for rest days!!
Today I have for you a Clean and Simple card, I made this card for a dear fiend who has been through a lot lately, her 2 youngest kids has been very sick, in fact one of them is still in the hospital. Sending her this card to letting her know I am thinking of her, her family and praying for her too.

I started my project cutting a piece of White Cardstock (3.75" x 5"), stamped the Large Stitched flower and Flower Bud in Versamark Ink and added White Embossing powder and heat set. Then I sponge all around the images with Spun Sugar and Barn Door Distress Ink. I stamped the sentiment on a piece of White cardstock in Jet Black Archival, cut piece as a banner and create faux stitches with a think outliner. Added a button with twine. Finally I added little drops of Ruby Liquid Pearls to the flowers.

Here are the Great Impressions products I used for this card:

• Large Stitched flower
• Flower Bud
• Sweet Sentiments

Hope you like it!
Have a fantastic day!

Get Well

Hello! Giovana here bringing you a cute card using Lilly's Garden Time image. I have to confess that I had a lot of fun coloring this image :)  I used Spectrum Noir Markers to color it. This card is a 5.25" x 5.25" square. I added stitches (I love to sew on my cards!!) and die-cut a fence and grass to make it more like a little scene.
The sentiment is one from Sweet Sentiments.

If you love to color as much as I do, you will love this image.

Hope you like it!!
Have a fantastic day!

Happy Birthday using Lace Doily

Hello!  Happy Monday!  This is Cheryl from Shestamps.

When I first started on the Great Impressions Stamps DT I warned you that I love the Lace Doily (J101) stamp and had a bunch of ideas on how to use it. I shared a couple ideas with you but then I put it away so that I could give some of my other new Great Impressions Stamps some attention. Well, this week I am back to using the Lace Doily stamp.

 

 

I stamped the doily four times using different colored inks. Then I used square Nesties to cut out a portion of each doily and attached them to a panel. I LOVE how this looks!

 

 

This would look great in other combinations and could be used for any occasion. I’m thinking about reds and greens. Add a Christmas sentiment and you would have a beautiful card.

 

I think this is still my favorite Great Impressions stamp. There are just so many beautiful ways you can use it. If you would like to see some of my other projects using it, you can click HERE or HERE. I’m going to put it away for awhile, but I know I will be pulling it out again soon.

 

Thank you for stopping by! Have a great week!

 

Supplies:

• Stamps: Lace Doily (J101) and Sweet Sentiments (E791) from Great Impressions Stamps
• Inks: Memento Rich Cocoa, Close To My Heart New England Ivy, Juniper, Sweet Leaf inks
