Simon Says Stamp August Card Kit



Hi there~

I received my Simon Says Stamp August Card Kit this weekend and I just had to break it out and create a few cards!








I love all the goodies included this month but the stencil was a bit of a challenge.  I decided to ink it with pigment ink and emboss using glitter embossing powder. It turned out really cool, but it was difficult to photograph. :(










































Thanks so much for stopping by!!

Hugs~Stacy

Birthday fishes



Hi there!
Happy Friday, today I finally have time to create a few cards for Summer Card Camp 2. I can't believe it has been three weeks already. This week has been so busy for me I am hoping to try a few of the techniques today to add to the gallery.




My first card today is using the color combo and one of the sketches.  I die cut and stamped the fish from my Paper Smooches set-Birthday Buddies then colored him with my copic markers.  Then I added glossy accents to him to make him oh so shiny. :) 

Thanks for stopping by, I'm off to create a couple more cards today!

Hugs~Stacy

Supplies:
Stamps:Birthday Buddies (Paper Smooches)

Congratulations...


Hi there~

I had a late start with card camp this week so today my post is a catch up. :) 

For my first card I choose to try a circle card from the sketches while following the color combo for the week.

I choose a baby card today because this weekend we received the fabulous news that we will become first time grandparents come January!! While I am still adjusting to the idea it is fun to create with some of my baby themed supplies. :)


















Supplies:
Paper: Bundle of Joy(Echo Park)
Stamps: Spookalicious (Paper Smooches), You can do anything (Simon Says Stamp)
Ink: Copic Markers, Rich Cocoa (Memento), Versa Mark
Spellbinders Circle and Scalloped Circle Dies, White Embossing powder.




For my day 2 card I wanted to try the resist watercolor technique. I loved it, I need to keep my watercolor paper handy to do this more often. :)









Supplies:
Paper: Watercolor paper
Stamps: Flower Fusion #2 and Think Big Favorites # 3(Papertrey Ink)
Ink: CTMH, Versa Mark
