SC903 Gnomes under the keg

Happy Wednesday! I finally broke down and bought a few of the Gnome sets from Stamping Bella. They are so fun and I am enjoying coloring them up. The first one I bought is called Two Gnomes and a keg. The sentiment in the set is perfect for the inside of this birthday card too. hee hee  

I stamped the little growler along the bottom there from another one of the sets I bought that goes well with both. Colored with various copic markers and then popped those up on dimensionals. Pierced around the brown edge and also embossed the base layer. Voila! Super cute I think. 

Here is this weeks sketch SC903 at a glance. Hope you can play along. 

SC902 Butterlfies

Morning. Butterflies once I start I end up cutting them out every time and popping out the wings from the card. I know after awhile you would think I would stop by I simply can't. ha ha Anyways this is Majestic Monarch from Sweet n Sassy and I am not sure its even available anymore? I have colored the two smaller ones in the set with Copic markers and then popped them up on the base white layer. 

Added some colored dots with the markers to match the colors on the butterflies. Some sparkle on wings and voila! I like the springy feel of this.  

This weeks Sketch SC902. Happy Stamping!

SC901 Birthday Blooms

Good morning! Today I am using another of the new embossing folders I got a few weeks back of these leaves and I just love the feel of them as the background with these blooms. I stamped and colored each of the blooms with Copic markers and then I cut around them to pop up on the base.

These blooms are from Abundant Petals stamp set that is not available anymore but still a favorite. I added a birthday sentiment to the vellum panel and two enamel dots to cover the glue dots used to hold it in place. Some sparkles to the petals and voila! Springy and fresh feeling I think.

SC900 Help comes from the Lord

Good morning. Missed the last few sketches so I am glad to be back in the stamp room. This was simple sketch, but I had a hard time coming up with an idea. I believe this stamp is no longer available and called Be encouraged. This is a new embossing folder to be that I just now am playing with. I added the same color to the center of the flowers. 

Die cut a few flowers to added to the sentiment panel. A jewel center and voila!

SC897 Butterfly thanks

Morning. This paper pack has all different hues of blue and I just love it. It is called Glamour from Authentique and I can't remember when I got it. Probably years ago but still have several sheets left. This was perfect for my card today to show a few of the designs in the pack. 

I stamped these butterflies out from Pure Prairie Spirit stamp set which is not available now but, we do have a digital version. Colored with Copic markers then I cut around them to pop up on dimensionals. Then added some shimmers to make them shine and it looks so much better in real life. I had trouble getting that to show in the photo but its there. Voila!

Here is the sketch at a glance. Hope you can play along with us this week. 

SC896 Coffee and Friends

This pack of paper is so pretty and the coffee theme is perfect with the colors. The paper pack is called Coffee with Friends from Echo Park and I bought it months ago and just now am using it. No stamping on this card at all as I used the paper to my advantage. 

I added the layers for each piece and then added sparkle to the base swirls and the cups on the one panel and the words coffee on the sentiment panel. Three brads added to the green stripped panel and voila. This came together very quick and easy today. 

Here is the SC896 Sketch at a glance. Hope you can play along with us. 

Here is another one that uses only the designer paper from the same pack. Added a little bit of a die cut flourishes behind the sentiment panel. Added some sparkle and a few scatters sequins for accents. Voila

SC895 Bliss Tidings for March

Morning. The plan was to get more stamping time in and well that hasn't happened as much. Just be happy I get what time I do get I guess. Anyways this was using stamp set Amaryllis Bliss but only the digital version called Amaryllis is available. I do love coloring these petals. I sized the image panel up first knowing I was going to have to cut it. Then colored with various Copic markers. 

Found a tutorial to follow for the cutting of the shapes and did okay not as great as I wanted. Then added them to the base layer. A little bit of stickles and some jewels. Voila 

Here is the Sketch Challenge SC895 at a glance. Hope you can play along this month.
