SugarPea Designs- Egg-a-licious Easter Card

Happy Thursday and Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I cannot believe how quickly this week has flown by, not just the week but the entire month. It seems impossible that Easter is just a little over a week away. I decided since the Easter holiday is quickly approaching, what better way to celebrate than to make an Easter card. 

• Stamps: A Bushel & A Peck, Every Day Is Christmas, Egg-A-Licious
• SugarCut Dies: Gift Tag, Zig Zag Stitched Rectangles, Zig Zag Stitched Circles, 

I mixed and matched a bunch of different stamps and dies to create this card. I got the idea for this card after watching, "Willy Wonka" the other night. If a goose can lay a golden egg then I figured Easter eggs wouldn't be that unusual. 

Patter Paper: Echo Park-Sunny Days Ahead

Solid Cardstock- PTI

Twine- American Crafts

Pebble Chalk(sky)

Hope you all enjoy my whimsical take on today's card. To see creations by some of the other design team gals, head on over to the SugarPea Design Blog. Thank you all for stopping by, I will be back tomorrow with yet another crafty creation. 

SugarPea Design Team Day- Prehistoric Love

Hello and Happy Thursday... It's Design Team inspiration Day for me over at the SugarPea Design Blog and I cannot wait to share my card with you all.

I had a lot of fun putting this card together! I just love the look of all the black and white and then BAM, the pop of color with all the dinos. 

Stamps: Prehistoric Pals 

SugarCut Dies: Stitched Flags

Pattern Paper: Dear Lizzy- Documentary

I attached my big banner by running it through my sewing machine a couple times. I embossed my sentiment onto some black PTI cardstock using Tim Holtz embossing ink & white Ranger embossing powder. 

To see what some of the other gals created, make your way over to the SPD Blog. 

Thank you all for stopping by and have a great day!

 

Spectrum Noir- March Challenge ~ Show us your sparkle

Hello, hope you are all having a good evening!? A new month has just started and that means time for a new challenge over at Spectrum Noir. 

This month is all about, showing us your sparkle... you can interpret that in many different ways. 

For my project I will be showcasing my sparkle in two different ways, using sequins & Spectrum Noir Sparkle pens.

Stamp Set- Some Odd Girl- Mr. Octopus

I stamped my images and sentiment directly onto some Spectrum Aqua Watercolour Cardstock. 

I water colored using my Spectrum Aquas, colors used included...

Teal, Aquamarine, Magenta, Yellow, Red Violet & Charcoal

I colored my Aquas onto an acrylic block and then picked up the colors using a water brush. 

I am impatient so I used my heat gun to dry the image. I  like using this method because I can manipulate the way the colors will dry. I then sprinkled some droplet of water randomly to image and blotted with a paper towel. 

Now that everything was dry, I went back in to use my Spectrum Sparkle Pens, colors used, include...

Cosmos, Violet & Clear. 

It's hard to see all the sparkle but trust me it's there. The ocean background was completely covered using the clear sparkle pen. Mr. octopus is very sparkle too!

Now all that was left was to add my sequins and specks of glitter. 

Hope you all enjoyed today's creation and we would love for you to all come along and play in this months challenge. 

Thanks for stopping by!

The Greeting Farm- March Guest Designer

I am so beyond ecstatic to be guesting for Greeting Farm Stamps for the month of March! I have been a long time admire of this company their stamps are just so fun and whimsical. 

I can't wait to share my creations with you!

I will be sharing three creations with you over the next couple of weeks.

 Today we will start with my first... are you ready to see what I have whipped up!?

I used digital stamps, Coralina & Leela.

 I pulled them into my Silhouette Studio software, so I could layer them and make them look like one image. 

I used Zig Clean Color Brush markers to do the ocean background & added some Spectrum Noir Sparkle(clear) on top of it. I finished it off by added some misc. sequins. 

My images were colored using Copic Markers. 

Pattern Papers:

Cottage Living-Pebbles

Creative Agenda- Echo Park

Be sure to stay tuned the rest of the month, to see what else I have in store for you. 

Thanks for visiting!
