Sweet Card

I really like these Gorjuss Girls Stamps from Sugar Nellie. Another set of stamps that are fun to color! I sat down this weekend and colored a ton of images and then sat down tonight and tried to make some cards with the images that I colored. I do that a lot and then forget to use all the images I have colored so I am trying to not let my pile of colored images get too high. I colored the image with Copic markers since I finally got enough purple markers to do some decent shading. I found this paper in my stash that has that light green background with the pink, purple, and blue flowers. I think it is from DCWV, but I am not sure. I layered a piece of of the pink card stock, the PP and lavender card stock that I punched out with a Fiskars border punch. To finish the card, I added this little fabric butterfly and some pearls that I got from Hobby Lobby. 

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
Color Chef Challenge - white, light purple, light pink and light green
Colour Create Challenge - your choice of pastels with Spring or Easter

Thank you so much for stopping by! I love reading your lovely comments so thanks for all your kind words on my projects.

3-D Challenge (Sort Of)

Our Ocean's 11 group had the first challenge this week. The challenge was issued be Chirleen and the challenge was to make a 3-D card using Spring related colors and sights. I think this is such a cute stamp and it does remind me of spring with the little girl's bare feet and her little crown of flowers. To meet the 3-D criteria, the main image is popped up with foam dots and the flowers were punched out of paper and then I folded the petals inward and they are also popped up a little. I used some pearl dimensional paint on the center of each flower. The stamp is from Sugar Nellie and was colored with Copic and Prisma Markers. I used a white gel pen around the main image and a Fiskars boarder punch to make the scallops. 

I got the bright idea yesterday to sort through all my scrap paper. I had no idea that it would take that long! Since the girls have been spending more time in my craft room making cards, I wanted to pull out some papers for them to use. They each have their own paper stash, but they have been going through it pretty quickly. Now, I have a basket of patterned scraps, a box of solid card stock scraps and a stack of white paper to stamp on. Have a great day!
