[Oceans of Joy] Multi-Occasion Card

I am still building my cardmaking collection, and it is SO easy to get into the blackhole of buying endless craft supplies. I really need to stop myself. I came across this adorable ocean themed stamp set,  Oceans of Joy , from Sunny Studio Stamps! Head on over to my Instagram to see a reel on how I made this card!     I wanted to create a fun wavey background so I took some scrap cardstock and cut a "wave" pattern and used it as my stencil with a blending sponge and my Stampin' Up spot inks. I LOVE how it turned out. I wanted to add more texture so I purposefully blended with differing pressures to get some texture in the background. I can't wait to make and use more stencils in my cardmaking. I stamped the sentiment, whale, crab, and water images using my misty on some textured white cardstock and colored in using my Prismacolor colored pencils. In hindsight, I wish I had used a smooth white cardstock instead, as it makes the coloring look a little messier than I...

[Hello Beautiful] Patterned Paper Series #1

 Okay, I will admit I am a girly girl. and this card made me all kinds of happy. I came across this freebie from  All Dressed Up Stamps  and immediately had so many ideas. I first gravitated towards a solid cardstock as my mounting base but then decided to have some fun with patterned cardstock.

I attached it with some foam squares to give a little added dimension. Easy right?! I mounted it on a hot pink cardstock and then mounted the whole set on a white and black polka dot cardstock from the same paperpad. Not only do I love using patterned paper as a background, but I also like using it fo...

[Sending Thanks] SSS September Card Kit #3

 Here is card #3 with the SSS September Card Kit. I stamped the sunflower stamp multiple times on white cardstock and colored in using alcohol markers. I used the included washi tape to create a border on the top and bottom of the green cardstock and used a very thin gold washi tape to decorate the side of the card panel. I used Diamond Sparkles from Stampin' Up to embellish the sunflower centers! I used the included Tim Holtz sentiment stickers and mounted it on some foam tape for some added dimension. I love how fun and quick this card was to make!  I entered this card in the following challenges: Inspiration Station Challenge #15 - An Autumn Countryside LAWN FAWNATICS CHALLENGE 110 – SPECTACULAR SKIES Lil Patch of Crafty Friends #167 Dare2Bartzy October Challenge Angie's Digital Stamp Challenge #57 Thanks for stopping by!
