Summer Card Camp 2

I love the classes over at onlinecardclasses.com. Very informative and great teachers.

Week 1 Day 1
For the first day they posted colors and sketches to use.

For my first card I had a robot that I purchased from Mo's Digital Pencil, that I wanted to use on my grandson's birthday card.  I used the colors posted above but had to switch the hot pink to red to make it more for a boy.  I colored the image with my Spectrum Noir markers.  The card stock is from one of my Simon Says Stamp monthly card kits so it is most likely Bazzil.

Enjoy!

Birthdays, Birthdays, and still more Birthdays!

I have had a LOT of birthdays to make cards for in May and June!  I don't have too many the rest of the year and have forgotten how much I love making birthday cards.  I decided I might as well enter a couple contests with the ones I have made too. 

This card is one I made for my niece. I decided this one would be perfect to enter in the Spectrum Noir Challenge.  This month's challenge is summer and what is more summer than bright cheery colors!

 

 

The stamp is from Penny Black and colored in with Spectrum Noir markers.  The washi tape and letter stickers are from Doodlebug. 

Thanks for looking!

You've Got Mail!

So I have been taking a class from Studio Calico called You've Got Mail with Lisa Spangler.  We are in the second week and it is so fun to come up with new cards.  Each week there is a challenge and new tips and tricks.  One of the tips this week is using mists so I have been playing with my Heidi Swapp Color Shine mists.  Love them!

I have just made little 3x3 cards but they are sooooo cute!
I used Studio Calico's Huey's Mask, Heidi Swapp color shine primrose and mustard on Stampin Up white card stock.  The stamp set is one of the little dollar ones from JoAnn's but I am not sure who made it because I don't have the packaging for it anymore.  I am sure it is about 5 yrs old haha. For the tree branch I used Nena craft card stock and stamped the woodgrain pattern with tea dye distress ink and then also used that color to add some darker color to it.  I then just cut it to look like a tree branch.  The twine is limeade Sew Easy fancy floss from We R Memory Keepers.  The card base is Stampin Up So Saffron.

My next card is also a 3x3.  The card base is whisper white card stock from Stampin Up.  I used my little bubble mask from Studio Calico and mustard Heidi Swapp Color Shine.  The washi tape is from Simon Says Stamp's March card kit and is from My Mind's Eye. Enamel dot is from the He said She said collection by Teresa Collins.  Banner is from the Itty Bitty Banners by Stampin Up.  The die is also the same collection.

Hello Sunshine

I have to start by saying I am kind of bummed. I made this card hoping to enter in a challenge with Paper Smooches. I finished it late last night...and I mean late! So I figured I would post it here to day and link it. Well.... That didn't quite go as pleased. Spent time with family for the Super Bowl and got home later than I expected to. Oh well. family was definitely more important. Anyways here is the card. I have a good friend in mind to send this to. I figure she could use a pick me up.
