Happy Birthday Card by Larissa Heskett

Tulips Birthday Card!

Hello Crafty Friends!! 

Larissa here today to share a BEAUTIFUL birthday card!! My son requested a card using tulips and I just LOVE the Newton's Nook Tulips Stamp Set so I knew I had to use it for this SPECIAL card!! I always get EXCITED when I get asked to make a SPECIAL card for someone and I hope this card will INSPIRE you!!

This card features:
Tulips Stamp Set
Tulips Die Set
Basic Frames Die Set
Newton's Blooms Stamp Set

Newton's Blooms Die Set
Spring Haul Stamp Set
Spring Haul Die Set
Birthday Roundabout Stamp Set

Frames & Tags Die Set

 

I started by stamping and embossing the tulips image from the Tulips Stamp Set 3 times along with the bee images from the Newton's Blooms and Spring Haul stamp sets onto some white cardstock using Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and embossing with WoW Clear Gloss embossing powder!! Then I used Copic Markers to color the image in!! 

Green: YG61, YG63 & YG67    
Purple: V00, V15 & V09    
Yellow: Y00 & YR23 

Blue: BG10 & BG13     
Grey: N0 & N3

Truck: G00, G02 & G45
Green: YG00, YG13 & YG25

Red: R00, R14 & R37
Turquoise: BG00, BG45 & BG49

Yellow: Y00, Y13 & YR23
White: N0, N3 & N5

Black: N0, N3, N5 & N8
Orange: YR00 & YR68

Brown: E30, E33 & E37
Cats: E40, E43 & E47 

Pink: R00

Then I used the coordinating Tulips Die Set to die cut the tulip images out!! I added some glitter pen for some sparkle and then added some white gel pen highlights!! I used the coordinating Newton's Blooms Die Set and Spring Haul Die Set to die cut the bee images out!! Next, I die cut the card panel from some white cardstock using the Basic Frames Die Set!! I inked with some Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Ink and then stamped and embossed the "Happy Birthday" sentiment from the Birthday Roundabout Stamp Set!! I stamped with Versa Fine Black Ink and Embossed with WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! Then I added some Salvaged Patina Distress Spritz Splatters for some sparkle and some Black Soot Distress Paint splatters for some texture!! Next, I die cut a purple cardstock zig-zag Frame from the Frames & Tags Die Set!! I adhered the card panel and then adhered the tulip images using some foam tape for dimension!! I adhered the bee images also with foam tape for dimension and I LOVE the way this turned out!! 

 

I hope this INSPIRES you to create some SPECIAL birthday cards!! There are so many different ways you can combine the Newton's Nook floral images with either bees or butterflies to help bring the scene to life!!

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by today!!


I hope you have a FABULOUS Weekend!!

Espresso Your Spooky Side Card by Amanda Wilcox

Espresso Your Summer-Ween Self Card

Hey friends! This is Amanda from Twiddler's Nook. Today I'm diving father into my Halloween stash and giving a fun idea for a stenciled background! Let's dive in!

This card features:
Ghosts Stencil

Spooky Coffees Stamp Set
Spooky Coffees Die Set

Full transparency, I did this in a different order but sometimes hindsight is 20/20 so I'm sharing a more time effective or to create this card, but whatever works for your brain is going to be perfect!
I recommend a sticky mat for stenciling but if you don't have one, tape your black cardstock panel to your stencil so it doesn't shift while spreading paste. Then choose your different solar pastes. I used a palette knife to add blobs of the different colors all over the panel with the Ghosts Stencil. Then I used a long paste spreader to level it all out and (sort of) mix the colors giving you the variegated effect.

 

Then I stamped, colored and die cut all of my images from the Newton's Nook Spooky Coffees Stamp Set. Instead of my normal vellum steam, I went with fun spooky colors for a change of pace.

Next, I trimmed a piece of black cardstock to about 1" wide and heat embossed my sentiment on it. To break up the background from the sentiment strip, I added a 1/4" piece of brown cardstock to the edge.

Working my way from the bottom up, I added foam tape to everything and adhered the sentiment strip, then the brown strip, then the mugs on that. I glued the panel to a top folding card base and then tied string around the top for some added interest.

For finishing touches on this design, I used my glitter brush pen on all the steam for some sparkle. Then I added bits of glossy accents to each mug so they shine too!
I appreciate you sharing your time with me. Have a fabulous day!
