FILLED WITH CHEER

 

On Sunday, I played with fun with cheer stamp from Stampin Up, and let me tell you it was a lot of fun.

I used Navy blue cardstock measuring 4 ¼” by 5 ½” and topped it with a white cardstock measuring 4” by 5 ¼”.

I also used a strip of designer paper measuring 1 ¾’” by 5” that coincided with the base color.

You will also cut a 3 ¾” by 3 ¾” piece of navy blue card stock and glue it to the center of the card.

Next, you will stamp your filled-with-cheer snowman on a 3 ½” by 3 ½” piece of white cardstock. I also stamped the sentiment below the snowman color it as you desire and glue that to the top of the navy-blue square.

All you need to do now is embellish it and finish the inside as desired.

yours truly,

Ana

Spotlight Technique With Dainty Delights



Hello everyone, I tried my first time making a spotlight technique card which came out pretty good I must say.

     SUPPLIES USED:

Ø     Lilac card stock 

Ø     Medium color of Blue for the card Mat   

Ø     White card stock for stamping and coloring on

Ø     Black ink for stamping

Ø     Dainty Delight Stamp from Stampin” Up

Ø     2 and 3/8s scallop punch

Ø     Blending Brush

Ø     Balmy Blue Ink

Ø     YG06 Yellowish Green for leaves, Copic Marker

Ø     Y02 Canary Yellow, Copic Marker

Ø     Rhinestones for decorating if desired

Ø     Dimensional 

     I started with the Lilac color card base of 8 ½” by 5 ½” I then scored it in half and folded it.

Attached a 3 and ¾” by 4 and ¾” on the Lilas card base and set aside until I finished coloring the flower.

I then colored the flowers with the colors I mentioned above, I punched the center of the flower, then did some brushing with the balmy blue ink very

Lightly so not to cover the flowers too much.

Now place the flower piece on blue card mat and place the circled punch

Inside just for placement, then glue the circle to the blue card mat, add dimensional to the other piece and place on mat,

You are now done except add embellishments if desired.

This card looks a little harder than it really is.
