Little Bunny

Welcome

Today's card was made for a little friend who was turning one. Such a special time.

So, here's what I did to create my card.

• I began by cutting the Curly Frame from a piece of white cardstock and glued that over a piece of blue cardstock to create my card front.
• Next, I took another piece of white cardstock, stamped the Bunny in a Wreath in my Misti and coloured it using Copic markers. I fussy cut it out around the wreath and set aside.
• I stamped the sentiment in my Misti with some Salty Ocean Distress Oxide ink and die cut it out.
• I glued the bunny onto a small embossed piece of paper that I inked with the Salty Ocean DOX ink.
• I glued my card front panel onto a white A2 sized card base and then used foam tape to pop the image and the sentiment over the front inside the framed area.

Thanks a lot for coming by and taking a look.

Today's simple card features the new for November stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called:

Split Snowflakes

I love this 2-part stencil that has many possibilities.

(Today I am just using just one half of the stencil for my card)

So, here's what I did to create my card.

• I placed one part of the Split Snowflakes stencil onto a piece of white cardstock along the center part of my paper and inked with some Speckled Egg and some Prize Ribbon Distress Oxide ink.
• I flipped the stencil up along the top edge and inked again with the same colours of ink. 
• I placed the panel into my Misti to stamp the sentiment across the middle with some Prize Ribbon DOX ink.
• I glued my stenciled card front onto a piece of designer paper that I have had in my stash for years and then glued that onto an A2 sized white card base.
• I added some silver gems around the sentiment to finish off my card.

Good Morning

I have a fun and simple card today, created using a new release with an older one from A Colorful Life Designs.

Meet the new stencil that can be used in so many ways:

Star Halo

Here's what I did to create my card.

• I cut a piece of white cardstock and placed one of the Marvelous Masks Arch over my paper and inked it up with some Speckled Egg, Shaded Lilac and some Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide ink.
• I removed that stencil and placed the new Star Halo stencil over the background and inked with some Wilted Violet DOX ink.
• I wiped the stencil off, then repositioned it and inked again with some Uncharted Mariner DOX ink. I really like the look of the star over the arch.
• Next, I die cut the sentiment from some purple cardstock and then glued that onto the white die cut word shadow.
• I glued my stenciled card front onto a piece of purple cardstock, then onto a white A2 sized card base.
• I used some foam tape to pop the sentiment over the middle of the star.

I can honestly say that I love how this card turned out using this newly released stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called:

Split Snowflakes

So, here's what I did to create my card.

• I cut a piece of white cardstock and placed both of the Split Snowflake stencil pieces over the paper.  
• I inked over the entire stencil with some Uncharted Mariner Distress Oxide ink.  
• I wanted to add a bit more of a detail to the snowflakes, so I inked over them with some Villainous Potion DOX ink.
• I lifted the stencil pieces off and cut the panel on the diagonal.
• Next, I placed the right side of the cut panel into my Misti to stamp the sentiment.
• I glued the pieces onto a piece of light blue cardstock, then onto a white A2 sized card base.
• To finish my card off, I added 3 silver gems just under the sentiment.

Today's simple card features a new released stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called

Diagonal Stars

So, here's what I did to create my card.

• I got out an older released stencil called Marvelous Masks Arch and placed one of those stencils onto a piece of white cardstock. I inked that up with some Shaded Lilac, Broken China and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide ink.
• Leaving that stencil in place, I put the Diagonal Stars stencil right over it and inked with some Uncharted Mariner DOX ink.
• I moved the stencil around and inked again to fill in some of the open areas.
• Using my white Posca pen, I added some dots to the stars and splatters to the whole card front to look like snow.
• When it was all dry, I glued my card front panel onto a piece of dark navy cardstock, then onto a white A2 sized card base.
• I used some foam tape to pop the foiled sentiment over the panel and finally, added some silver gems that matched the silver sentiment.

Oh Christmas Tree

Good Morning

Welcome to November and the wonderful new releases at A Colorful Life Designs.

Meet the newly released

Close Up Branches

So, here's what I did to create my card.

• I began by die cutting 2 pieces of white cardstock using the Postage Collage die and set one aside.
• I masked around the edges of the sections of one of the die cut panels, then placed the Close Up Branches stencil over the die cut and inked with some Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide ink.
• I moved the stencil slightly and inked again over the whole stencil with some Rustic Wilderness DOX ink giving the branches a shadow effect.
• Next, I removed the stencil and lightly inked over it with some more of the Cracked Pistachio DOX ink.
• I used the eraser on the end of a pencil to add the red dots as berries and then splattered with my white Posca pen.
• I took the die cut I had set aside and cut one of the sections and stamped the tree onto that.
• I used some red cardstock to die cut the sentiment, spattered with my Posca pen, then glued that onto the white word shadow.
• I glued the stenciled panel onto a piece of red cardstock and then onto an A2 sized white card base.
• I glued the single tree stamp to one side and used some foam tape to pop the sentiment into the corner.
