Howdy Sugah!


Hello!  Hope you are having a fabulous Monday!  Larisa here and today I'm sharing a fun country card using Cheeky Howdy 2.  This sweet little stamp is so much fun to color and create with!  As a Texas girl, I'm always partial to western themed stamps and this might just be the cutest one I've ever seen!  

To create my card, I started with some patterned paper and trimmed it to fit the front of my A2 sized card.  Then I die cut some dessert themed images using dies in my stash and layered them up top of my patterned paper.  I stamped out my image, colored her up with Copics, and fussy cut her out.  Then I popped her on top of the scene using some foam tape.  A cute little stamped sentiment and a couple of page flags finish it off!  
Copic Colors:
Skin:  E000, E00, E11, E04, R20
Hair: C5,C7,C9
Brown: E35, E37, E29
Red: R24, R59
Blue: B24, B26, B29
Yellow: Y21, Y26, E87


Thanks so much for stopping by!  Hugs and happy crafting!

Picket Fence Studios Beautiful Girl Sierra

Hello!  Today, I'm sharing a vibrant, floral card using Beautiful Girl Sierra!  This stamp is gorgeous and I had so much fun coloring her up!  To begin, I stamped her out in tan ink and colored her up using the no-line coloring technique.  Then I die cut her out using the coordinating die.  For the background, I used the NEW Beautiful Girls Flower Wreath.  I stamped it out, colored it up with Copics, and trimmed it to fit my A2 sized card.  Then I added my Sierra image to the center of the wreath using some foam tape.  For the flowers in her hair, I wanted them to pop.  So I added some of the roses from the Beautiful Girls Flower set.  Then I stamped out my sentiment, cut it out with the coordinating die, and popped it across the bottom of my card using foam tape.  Some Stickles glitter over the flower images finishes this card off.

CC Designs Birthday Candles

 Hello!  Today, I'm sharing a fun little cupcake topper using the new Birthday Candles Clear Stamp and Coordinating Die set from CC Designs!  This set is absolutely adorable and a Must have in your stash!  

To create my topper, I started with a paper straw and sandwiched it between a paper rosette and die cut circle.  Then I colored up my image, cut it out with the coordinating die and adhered it to the front.  A cute little bow, and sentiment sticker finish it off.  I also glued a little pom pom onto the party hat!

To create my card, I just layered up some patterned papers, added some fringe trim, and popped my image on top using some foam tape.  Then I stamped out my sentiment and added a few glitter hearts.

Picket Fence Stamps April 2021 Release Day!

 Hello!  It's release day at Picket Fence Stamps!  Today, I have a trio of  Slim Line cards to share with you featuring some of the new stamps and dies from this month's release!  


My first card features the New Scallop Framed Slim Line Die Cutting System.  This set is an ABSOLUTE MUST HAVE.  It has so many elements; the possibilities are endless!  I used the NEW Cats are Family Stamp set and Coordinating Dies to create clean and simple card.  I just love how the colors pop!


My next card features one of the NEW Slim Line Die Cutting System Inserts!  This beauty is called Monarch Butterfly.  I die cut the butterfly out of my card panel and then cut it again using vellum.  I fussy cut the vellum butterfly from the circle frame and stitched it on top of my card panel.  I just love this effect.  So pretty!  I also used the Big Happy Hugs Word Die.  I love that this set can be used as a part or a whole.  


My last card is probably my favorite from this release!  This is Dance Mode On!  How fun is this!  This card was so much fun and very easy to make.  I used some galaxy patterned paper in my stash, stamped out my image, colored it up, and fussy cut it out.  Then I used foam tape to add it on my card panel and stamped my sentiments below.  That's it!  Super quick and fun card!  

Thanks so much for stopping by!

For my card, I kept things pretty simple.  I used a piece of patterned paper from my stash and trimmed it to fit the front of my card.  Then I stamped out my images, colored them up with Copics, and cut them out using the Coordinating Dies. Using foam tape, I adhered them to forest scene.  Then I stamped my sentiment across the bottom and added a few die cut hearts.  Easy Peasy!
