Sending smiles... friendship card featuring Elizabeth Crafts and Lawn Fawn

Peace and blessings to you all! Here's the last card my daughter helped me make in this series. FYI - I have plenty more projects planned for us this summer. I'll be sure to share. As always she colored the focal.  I love the sections of color she created with Spectrum Noir alcohol markers. The butterfly is an Elizabeth Crafts outline sticker and the sentiment is from Lawn Fawn.

A quick tip for you - I stamped my sentiment last and it was a disaster! Some areas (dashed lines) didn't stamp well. I pulled out my secret weapon! Ok, ok it's not that secret... it's a Sakura Gelly Roll pen. I was able to find one in the same color (metallic purple) and drawn in the dashes.  And voila! You'd never know I initially made a mistake.

Additional supplies:

• Memento ink
• Elizabeth Crafts microfine glitter (warm diamond)
• gray cardstock, sequins and epoxy dots (from my stash)
• card base - We R Memory Keepers - inked rose

Thanks for stopping by!

Floral Encouragement Card - Outline stickers

I've got another outline sticker card for ya! We made a bunch for charity (if you're wondering why I have so many lately). My 10 year old daughter colored these flowers for me with Spectrum Noir. I used the glitter panel to make a card. I even pulled out a punch to give the edge a cute scallop. The look wasn't complete until I added sequins!

Supplies:

• outline stickers from Stamp On It
• Spectrum Noir
• Copics
• Tim Holtz sentiment stamp
• memento ink
• Elizabeth Crafts microfine glitter (warm diamond)
• border punch from EK Success
• sequins from stash
• card base We R Memory Keepers - inked rose

Thanks for stopping by!

Hello butterfly card featuring Spectrum Noir, Copic Markers and Elizabeth Crafts outline stickers

Here's another card that my daughter and I both had a part in making. I created the glitter paper and affixed an Elizabeth crafts outline sticker. I then passed it to my daughter to color. I enjoyed how she experimented with color and color mixing on this butterfly. I then fussy cut the butterfly and affixed it to the card.

This was a new type of card for me. The background was rather busy but I broke it up by highlighting  a part of the background with a stamp and colored in with a Copic marker. It was cool to step out of the norm.

Supplies:

• Elizabeth Crafts outline stickers
• Spectrum Noir
• Copics
• Heidi Swapp
• memento ink
• Elizabeth Crafts microfine glitter (warm diamond)
• gold border and epoxy dots from my stash
• card base We R Memory Keepers - inked rose

Thanks for stopping by!

Washi Tape Sunburst LO

Here's my version of a washi tape sunburst. My idea was to cut a whole in the cardstock in order to place a second piece of cardstock behind with the washi tape stuck down in a sunburst pattern. The tape was very forgiving no matter how many times I took it off to rearrange it.

Do you use washi tape? I'd love to hear how. Fill me in??!!

Supplies:

• DCWV The Spring Fling Stack
• Washi tape
• Creative Memories Cutting System large wavy circle (cut with blue blade)
• Pressed Petals Scrap metal adhesive letters
• Jolee's Boutique Dimensional stickers (flowers), title and pearl and bling embellishments
• Spectrum Noir alcohol marker - BP4
• Recollections 8 1/2 x 11" white cardstock
