A couple of Cards

I had to make a couple of cards for one of my Yahoo groups that I'm on.  They were for Once a Month RAK for the Copic crafters yahoo group.   I am pretty happy with the way they turned out.  I used another digital image from Elizabeth Bell  called "I Love You This Much".   The digi was printed on cryogen white cardstock and of course colored with copic markers.  This first card is for the NOV OAMR....  Hope the recipient likes it.  I also used a digital circular sentiment from Lily of The Valley.  Looks like they are only available now in rubber. Sorry :)


 This next card is for the Dec OAMR.  It uses the same digital image from Elizabeth Bell.




Project Recipe:
Stamps: Digital stamps from Elizabeth Bell, Lily of the Valley digital circular sentiments
Paper:  Basic Grey, DCWV
Accessories:  Spellbinders Labels 16, Spellbinders Inverted Circles, Spellbinders Classic circles,  Ribbon from my stash, Pearls, Copic markers (will list colors later)

Elizabeth Bell Christmas card

 Here is another Christmas card that I made today.  The image I used is a digi stamp from Elizabeth Bell Designs.  I think she is really cute.  The image was printed on Cryogen white cardstock and colored with Copics. I am pretty happy with the way this card turned out.


This also was my first attempt at using my cloud templates that I've had sitting here for months.  I really like how this card turned out.  I added a lot of stardust stickles to the snow to give it a glittery effect. 


Project Recipe:
Stamps:  Elizabeth Bell Digi stamp
Paper: American Craft cardstock in white and red, Me & My Big Ideas snowflake cardstock
Ink: Memento summer sky for the clouds
Accessories: Spellbinders Label 1 dies, Spellbinders Big Scalloped Border Petites die, Hot Fix gems, Ribbon from my stash, Making Memories snowflake charm, Bow easy,  cloud template, Copic markers

A Christmas Card

Here is a Christmas card that I just got done making.  I have to say that I'm ashamed of myself, this card contains no use of Copic markers...    This is a Z-fold card with a Popcorn the Bear 3-d decoupage on the front.  This is my very first decoupage card and I have to say that I LOVE IT....   The picture isn't that great as it is a scan, but will have my husband take a picture with his camera later.

Honey Bee Tilda

Happy Friday!!!!  This week went by sooo fast.  Can't believe it's Friday already.  Today I created a card using Magnolia Honey Bee Tilda and Magnolia Honey Jar.  I stamped the stamps on Cryogen white cardstock and colored them using Copic markers.



I teach Copic classes at a local stamping store called "Stamp-ede Rubber Stamping Store". A few of the gals that have taken all 3 of my classes wanted to keep going with the classes, so we created a Copic 4 class which is Design of the Month using Copics.  I take a stamp from the store and color with copics and create a card which everyone makes in the class.  For the month of December the gals wanted me to show them how to take Tilda and have her sitting on something or add a background stamp behind her if she is standing.  So this card was made with that in mind.  So if you are in the York, PA area and would like to take some Copic classes, please check out Stamp-ede Rubber Stamping Store, they are working on a new website, but you can check them out on facebook using the following link  http://www.facebook.com/pages/York-PA/Stamp-ede-Rubber-Stamping-and-Scrapbooking-Supplies/342026797722 .

Here's another card using the same Magnolia Honey Tilda......

Blue, Silver and White Christmas card for RRR Challenge

Hello Everyone and Happy Friday.  Hope you all have had a great week.

I've decided to try my hand at a few challenges and here is the first one.  Here is a card that I made for the Really Reasonably Ribbon Challenge #11.  The challenge is to make something using the colors BLUE, SILVER and WHITE. It can be a card, layout, tag, ATC, you name it!! As long as it follows the theme and has ribbon on it.




The picture made the silver look washed out, it is prettier in person. Tilda is stamped on cryogen cardstock and colored with copics.  The snowflakes were cut out using my Spellbinders Create a Flake one die.  More info on what I used to make my card is below.

Hope you have a great weekend.....
