Mountain Air

Today we are going for a breath of fresh air into the mountains.
How I started was by cutting a base card in white,
then topped it with the spruce green top then added another top of black, to bring out the black of the mountains.  I inked around the sun with pineapple punch color this is the rays of the sun. Then I stamped a sun right in the middle with so saffron.
I made a mask of the mountains and held it down so I could ink up the sky in Balmy Blue and a little bit of seaside spray, then it's time to remove the mask and stamp the beautiful mountain, then I stamped some spruce green trees. I built a reflection of the mountains by second-generation stamping and the same with the trees.
Time to ink up the ocean in balmy blue and put some seaside spray shadows. I again stamped some trees at the bottom of the card.
Glued it to the background cardstock.
This is where everything falls apart on me...LOL
measurements were cockeyed, but I continued with the card, and I thought I should show you, we are only human we all make mistakes.  So much aggravation in making this card, my hands were so filthy with all colors of ink, stamping was somewhat cockeyed, but hey it was my first attempt at making it.

BIRTHDAY FLOWERS


 Today I am bringing a Happy Birthday flower card...

it's a basic 4 1/2  by 6 card, using a green card base and a yellow cardstock 4 1/4  by 5 3/4 to top it.

Topping it with a pretty flower die 4  by 5 1/2.

This die comes with the Happy Birthday cut-out letters, so I cut two letters out of each letter and glued each letter onto each other, and glued it to the card I then brushed it with wink a stella then I couldn't just stop there, so of course, I added some diamond bling.

SPRING BIRTHDAY CARD

 




This A2 card with the measurements of  4 1/4 by 5 1/2 inches is on white cardstock.

Topped with a deep purple piece of cardstock 4 / 5 1/4 inches.

This is where the fun begins, On a white piece of cardstock size 3 3/4 by 5 inches, I blended it with lavender ink then  I dry embossed with a flowered embossing folder and glued it to the purple cardstock.

I fussy cut a leafy frame out of white cardstock and stamped happy birthday and glue it to the purple embossed paper.

Added three clear gems to brighten up the card.

😊

HYDRANGEA

 

This card can be for any occasion.  the card is 4 1/4 by 51/2 inches in a dark green card stock base.  I dry embossed a white piece of card stock 4 by 5 1/4 inches with a leaf pattern embossing folder, took an ink pad, and dragged (smoosh) it through the leaves to make them green then I glued it to the card base.

Stamped a Hydrangea flower on white card stock colored it with Prisma colored pencils.  Using a frame die I cut it around the flower and with a finger dauber, I blended the same color of green ink around the frame.

I then added some Nuvo drops and this is where I made an oopsie when I put it on the green part of the card, it turned green instead of white. I also added three green sequins and a green bow.

R U KITTEN ME

 

A fun and whimsy card, I downloaded a coloring page of the girl and cat and changed it to fit the size of my rectangle Die.  I colored it in lilac for the PJ"S and purple for the paws, I know it looks like blue here but it's not, you just have to believe me on this one. LOL.  I cut a card base in the lilac color and topped it with a purple cardstock the size was 4 by 5 1/4 and glued it to the top of the card base.

I dried embossed a white piece of white cardstock size was 3 3/4 by 5 with an embossing folder from The Paper Studio, which I really don't know what the name is, but if anyone knows what it's called, please let me know.  I passed a lilac-colored distress ink pad through it to get some color and glued it to the top of the purple cardstock.

Glued the rectangle die cut of the girl on top of it and placed a cute sentiment on top of the girl.

Hope you think it's cute, I do.



DEW DROPS AND FLOWER


 

Simply having fun:  what we will need today is a white base card with the measurements of 4 ¼ by 5 ½

I then cut a green cardstock at the measurement of 4 by 5 ¼ and glued it to the white base card.

You will also need a white cardstock piece that measures 3 ¾ by 5 with this piece I inked it with green Ink and a little bit of golden yellow ink, and let it dry.

You will need a subtle stencil and brush white pigment ink all over the stencil, then glue it down to the green cardstock.

I had a leftover gold frame from another project I made, and stuck that on top.

To decorate the top, I used a flower colored with water-based marker and raised it up with glue dot.

 a fun card to make and super easy.

HELLO FRAME CARD

 

Here is How I made my card.

First, I cut a 4 by 5 ¼ card base in white cardstock. I blended green pigment ink with a brush until I got the desired color I liked.  I then rubbed a white pigment ink pad over the raised flowers, to give them an interesting background.

I then dry embossed it with a Darice flowered embossing folder glued it to my base card.

Again, I dry embossed another piece of 4 by 5 ¼ card stock in white with another Darice embossing folder which I cannot recall the name, I cut the center out with a large oval die and then glued it down to the green leaf leaves.  I cut two of the patterned ovals die to make a frame around the opening and glued them both together to give it stability and glued it down on the card.

It took me a bit of time to make this card but I truly enjoyed making it.
