1st birthday card

Hello!

Today, I made a birthday card for my friend's son. He will be turning 1! I first made my background with Izink and Irresistible inks. I mixed my turquoise ink with water and sprayed it. I added a washi tape border and a black line. The 1 is a green sticker on circles cut with Spellbinders dies. The stamps were colored with Spectrum Noir markers and mounted on 2D foam. I added some Stickles on their gifts, hats and balloons for more sparkle. My sentiment was embossed in white on a black die cut.

I'm submitting my card to these challenges:
- Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge: Make your own background
- Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge: A bit o' green
- Seize the birthday: The great divide
- Addicted to stamps challenge 121: glitter/bling

Material used:
- Stamps: Prehistoric party (Stampendous), souhaits (Lime Citron)

Défi Accent Scrapbooking - Journée de la femme

Bonjour,

Hier, Accent Scrapbooking a publié un défi surprise pour la journée de la femme. Il fallait faire une page de scrapbooking nous mettant en vedette. Je n'avais pas de photo récente que de moi, puisque maintenant les seules photos que je prends sont de mes voyages ou de mon bébé ha ha et je n'avais pas le temps d'aller en faire développer d'ici dimanche (date de fin du défi). Donc j'ai fouillé dans mon album photo et j'ai trouvé cette vieille photo que je trouvais assez comique de moi il y a plusieurs années, pour mon 21e anniversaire. Ouf, ça ne me rajeunit pas. Enfin bref, j'ai donc décidé d'utiliser celle-là car j'avais un beau badge sur le thème anniversaire que je voulais utiliser.

J'ai choisi un magnifique papier à motif de la compagnie K&Company. J'ai utilisé du lettrage et des autocollants que j'avais depuis longtemps (il faut bien que je fasse de la place dans mon stock si je veux pouvoir justifier le fait que je doive en racheter ha ha!). J'ai découpé la fleur dans un restant de papier à motif que j'avais et j'ai collé le centre de la fleur sur du tape 2D pour plus de dimension et j'ai ajouté un centre bling bling. Le cadre de ma photo a été découpé avec un ciseau à motif. Évidemment, j'ai mis un badge d'Accent Scrapbooking avec de la ficelle jaune. J'ai aussi fait des cercles toujours dans le même papier et j'en ai mis un autour de mon visage pour le mettre en évidence.

Merci de votre visite!

Colorful thank you card

Hello,

Today I'm showing you a card I made for Impression Obsession's Splashes of Color challenge and SSS Monday Make your own background challenge. This week-end, I made many leaves using my new die and alcohol inks so I still had few left. I first made my background by spraying my black ink, then yellow and orange ink. The thanks word was made with a die from IO. I stamped the chicken wire stamp on white cardstock with orange ink and mounted it on black cardstock and then on 2D foam tape. I glued my leaves and voilà!

Material used:
- Stamp: Chicken wire (Impression Obsession)
- Dies: Thanks, Leaves (Impression Obsession)
- Alcohol inks: Stream, Sunset orange, Juniper, Lettuce and Currant (Ranger)
- Inks: Black marble (Dylusions), Electric Yellow, Electric Orange (Irresistible inks)

Thanks for stopping by!

Another rainbow of thanks

Hi!

Today, I'm showing you the second card I made, using the same background technique as yesterday. I just bought this new leaves die from Impression Obsession and I LOVE it! I love how it debosses at the same time, it's gorgeous!! I made the leaves by sponging alcohol inks on a glossy paper. I just love this technique. You never know what the result will be and how the inks will blend. I stamped the sentiment with SSS ink on a tag and added it with 2D tape.

I'm submitting my card to these challenges:
- Impression Obsession: Splashes of color! (my background is definitively a splash of colors!)

Rainbow of thanks

Hello,

Today, I made a colorful thank you card. I first sprayed some Lindy's Stamp Gang on my white cardstock. I didn't know what kind of background I wanted exactly so I just followed my feeling and used many colors of Irresistible inks to add more colors and dimension to my card. I made 5 die cut of the word thanks to make a rainbow effect and added 2 ribbons for more texture.

I'm submitting my card to these challenges:
- Impression Obsession: Splashes of color!
- Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Touchy Feely
- Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Leaping into the unknow

Material used:

Great day

Hello!

Today I'm showing you a card I made for my grandmother. I love sending her cards to tell her I'm thinking about her. I was first inspired by SSS Monday challenge Leap into the unknown. When I make a card, I usually think about everything before starting it. For this one, I didn't have any plan or idea, I just knew I wanted to use my Memory Box tree die on the card.

I made 2 trees dies cut and stamped some flowers directly on my background, aligning them with the trees. For more dimension, I then glued the trees on the stamping so some flowers would appear behind the trees. I also stamped the flowers on another cardstock and hand cut them as I didn't want the full branch. I colored everything with Spectrum Noir markers, using colors matching my background patterned paper. For some texture (SSS Wednesday challenge), I added Stickles inside the flowers. Then, I stamped my sentiment with SSS ink.

I'm submitting my card to these challenges:
- Memory Box challenge #10 Blossoms and bunnies (used tall birch die)
- Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Take a leap into the unknown
- Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Touchy feely
- Addicted to Stamps Challenge #121 Glitter/bling
- Simon Says Stamp Work it February: Floral challenge

Material used:
- Die: Tall birch (Memory Box)
- Stamps: Blooming garden (Penny Black), souhaits (Lime Citron)
- Spectrum Noir markers: CR6+CR8+PL3
- Ink: Blue Violet (Simon Says Stamp)
- Stickles: Stardust (Ranger)
- Patterned paper (DCVW)
