Magical Birthday!

Here is a little card for the Harry Potter buffs in your life.  I think the Abracadabra image from Designed2Delight is adorable!  I paired it up with some halloween papers and ribbon from American Crafts. 

I typed up the birthday sentiment in a fun font and layered it over a Spellbinders Ironworks Die.
The images is colored with Copic Markers.

Milton With Daisy!

This is one of two projects today, so be sure to scroll for more inspiration!

Today's project for iCopic is a sweet little project featuring Wild Rose Studio's Milton With Daisy image.

I colored my image with the following Copic markers:  E59, E57, E55, E53, E51, Y38, T35, Y32, YG17, YG03, R85, R83, R81.  To add texture to Milton I used the Colorless Blender solution and a piece of terry cloth. 

For my little box, I used one sheet of Chocolate Truffle cardstock.  I added black lines and measurements to each photo to guide you along.  This is based on Beate's One Sheet Box Tutorial on SCS.

Finally I topped my bag with a bunch of sweet girly goodness.   I started with a 4.5 inch circle, folded in half and faux stitched with a white signo gel pen.  I added some glittered punched pieces, and layered various dies and gems. 

Milton is fussy cut and is layered on some designer paper from the store...by Fizzy Moon.
A finishing touch is a snippet of Cotton Candy Divine Twine tied in a bow!

Love Is In The Air - One Crazy Stamper February Challenge

This is one of two posts today, so be sure to scroll for more inspiration!

This month the challenge at One Crazy Stamper is Love Is In The Air!  I chose to go a little less lovey-dovey with my card and made a cute card that you could give to a little valentine in your life!

This image is called Jane Skating and is by Tina Wenke/Stampavie.  I colored her with Copic Markers: E59, E57, E55, B23, B21, BG000, W5, W3, E21, E02, E00, R85, R83, R81.

I matched it up with Prima's Jack and Jill Collection and a Martha Stewart Snowflake Punch. 

Be sure you stop by....there is a fun prize for a lucky challenge participant...and we want to see your take on Love Is In The Air!

Clearly Beautiful ~ You Make Me Smile!

This is one of two posts today, so be sure to scroll for more inspiration!

This card for Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps features the Clearly Beautiful Butterflies set and coordinating Butterfly Die.  Another fun thing to note is that there is another stamp set that coordinates with the die....Clearly Beautiful Butterflies 2!  I don't know about you...but I like to have lots of options and this is a fabulous butterfly collection!  You will have every season and and a variety of sentiments at your disposal!

I used one of the coordinating images to stamp my background panel tone on tone.  I stamped the sentiment from one of the sets onto a Prickley Pear Collage ATC Transparency with Stazon ink.
The ATC Transparencies come 8 to a sheet.  Check out the wide variety available in the store!

I die cut a piece of glossy cardstock that I had done the Polished Stone Technique on.  Because the stamps are clear, it is easy to stamp your image, this makes for a quick and easy card!

I embellished my card with some washi tape, pearls and flowers!

~LOVE~

It's Digital Tuesday and the challenge this week is a color challenge:  Black, Red and White!

I went with a beautiful red rose from Fred, She Said Digital Designs.  I fussy cut the pre-colored Corner Rose image and placed it on a punched panel.  This beauty comes pre-colored in SEVEN colors...it's a very versatile set!

The punch is a Martha Stewart Punch Around The Page set, embellished with a spellbinders die cut from the Twisted Metal set.  The pearls are from Prima as is the black lace.

Love is an unknown unmounted stamp and the metal embossed strip may be by Magenta.
We hope you join in the fun...check out the other challenge cards...and enter for a chance to win some FREE images!
