52 Week Mini Art Card/Tag Challenge
Our neighbours have recently had a new arrival to their family, so I made this card for them.
A couple of days ago, I was experimenting printing backgrounds using stencils. For this background I have used a Funky Fossil stencil called "Petal Burst".
This background is actually the result of me cleaning off the stencil with a wet wipe. As I wiped, the colour filled the gaps in the stencil on to the card below. It was too good to throw away, so I kept it for a future project.
I cut the image down to size so that it was square. Using Versafine Clair "Warm Breeze" shade of ink, I stamped the baby image, which is part of the Visible Image stamp set called "Bloom and Grow".
I stamped the Papertrey Ink sentiment (part of the "Signature Greetings" set) in the same ink. Then mounted the card on to some matching cardstock.
I have entered this card into the June 2019 "A Place to Start" stencil challenge.
I have continued with playing with the Oxide inks and spritzing the stamped image, creating this card using Stamper's Anonymous "Mini Bouquet" stamp set, Tim Holtz Oxide Inks and a Papertrey Ink sentiment from their "Signature Greetings" stamp set.
Making cards for boys can be difficult at the best of times. This one is for a ten year old going on 16!
I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder for the texture background. I die cut the stars and the oval shapes and then stamped a sentiment from thePapertrey Ink stamp set called "Signature Greetings".
I made this card for my Granddaughter. She likes to receive mail but she is also chuffed with herself that she no longer needs nappies.
I'm not sure who made the owl stamp, but it's coloured with Promarkers and the die cut into a heart shape. The background uses a Stampin' Up embossing folder called "Woodland". The sentiment is by Papertrey Ink from their "Signature Greetings" set.
I made this card for friend who has just completed her first half marathon.This card uses Stampin' Up "Moroccan" Designer Paper. The sentiment is by Papertrey Ink "Signature Greetings" set.
I've been working through my list of cards that I need to make. This is the last one for November.
The elephant is a die cut from a Creative Expressions set called "New Arrival - Stuffed Animals". Which sits on two Spellbinders circles. The sentiment is by Papertrey Ink from their set called "Signature Greetings".
Playing with the Stampin' Up "Paisleys & Posies" stamp set, for this tag I opted to use the circular designs rather than the paisley. I stamped the circles in Memento "Rich Cocoa" colour. Colouring in areas with a Promarker in a "Gold" shade.
I then used a Papertrey Ink sentiment from their "Signature Greetings" set and die cut a scalloped edge oval shape using a Spellbinder die.
The circular designs and the colourway I have chosen remind me of some kitchen tiles from the 70's.
