The project Bin

Today I am a little late in getting my card out for The Project Bin.  For my card today I used the new stamp set called Love Your Shellfie. 

I colored this adorable image with my copic markers and then used a few dies to highlight it.  I just love this new stamp set.  Be sure and check out the Project Bin for this new addition to their collection.

PIP Challenge #1917

This week at Pammie's Inky Pinkies our sponsor is Newton's Nook which is one of my favorite stamp companies.  I'm sure you see a lot of their stamps on my blog.  We are also going with a Clean and Simple theme this week.

For my card I decided to use Newton's Birdbath as my stamp for my creation.  I started by stamping the image in the corner of my card and colored it with my copic markers.  I then stamped the image on masking paper and cut it out and placed it over the image.  I then taped off about 3/4" on the right side and bottom.  I then used distress oxide and sponged over the masked image.  I pulled the mask off and this beautiful image came out.  The sentiment was part of the stamp set.

Challenge Your Stash

Time again for another challenge from our group in Splitcoaststampers.  The challenge this month came from Jen and what a fun challenge it was.  We were to use two of her favorite things which were orange and buttons.  Well I think my card covers both.

I started by adhered the orange plaid paper to the front of my card and then cut out the heart in the center.  I cut another heart out using just plain white cardstock to use as a stencil for the inside of my card.  I stenciled the heart using Distress Oxide.  I then used glue dots to adhere all the buttons to the inside of the card.  I added the sentiment to the front and the 2 buttons at the bottom.

Thanks Jen for a great challenge.

The Project Bin

Today I am posting another card that I made using the Spencer's Stamp Set.  In honor of autism month The Project Bin is offering this stamp set free for orders over $60 or if you want to purchase it, it is only $5 this month.

I loved making this card.  I started out by sponging a sky background on the inside of the card using a cloud stencil.  I then adhered the green background to the front of the card and cut a circle out.  I also cut a scalloped circle out of the red cardstock and used the same circle die to cut the center out to match the circle on the card.  I stamped the heart from Spencer's Stamp set and colored it with my copic markers.  I then used the heart die from "In My Heart" stamp set to cut the hearts out.  I then took some fishing line and taped it to the center of the cut out circle.  I glued a heart on each side.  I also used the sentiment from Spencer's Stamp set.

Before putting the card in the envelope, you twist the heart all around several times.  That way when someone opens the card, the heart will spin and you have beautiful hearts on both sides.

SCS 43rd Round UIS Swap

Today is the due date for the 43rd Round of the UIS Swap hosted by Lela.

The image I used was "Say Cheese" by Taylored Expressions.  I colored the image with my copic markers and then cut the image out.  I love this paper line (Simple Stories "Say Cheese III") which fit perfectly in to the card. 

Thanks Lela for a great challenge.

The Project Bin

Since Easter is quickly approaching, I decided to make an Easter card for a dear friend of mine using the "Spring Zen" stamp set from The Project Bin.

I started by sponging a bit in the center of the card with Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide.  I then used a sun ray stencil with sponging with Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide.  I colored the cross with my copic markers.  I just love how the sun rays highlight the beautiful colors in the cross.

Remember that is you order over $60 at The Project Bin you will receive Spencer's Set free which is a $10 value.  What a deal.

Dueling Darlings

Today I actually have 2 posts.  This one is for our group on Splitcoaststampers called the Dueling Darlings.  This month Terry S. and LJ were our hostesses. They decided on an Outer Space theme.

This image is from My Favorite Things called Space Explorer.  I colored the images with my copic markers and then placed them on the paper.  The cute little explorer has a Hampton art action wobble so he is wobbly.  I also cut a circle out and used a circle embossing folder for the moon.

I had so much fun with this adorable stamp set.  Thanks to Terry for a great challenge.
