I made this bunny Happy Birthday card for my friend. I colored some white cardstock with blue Distress Oxide ink, and then stamped the bunny over it using Versafine Black Onyx ink. I colored the bunny with Prismacolor pencils. Here is the card.<br />

I created the background by distressing blue Distress Oxide Ink onto cardstock, and then stamped floral and butterflies images using the same blue Distress Oxide Ink as well. After matting the squares with black ink, I layered the two squares together and put them onto a card panel. I also stamped out and die cut the Happy and Birthday sentiments from Lawn Fawn's Happy Happy Happy stamp set. I highlighted some of the bunny's face with Glossy Accents and stickles.<br />

I am new to Pink Ink Designs stamps. I saw this Hare stamp and had to get it! I LOVE it! I searched YouTube and found some Pink Ink Designs videos, and was inspired by them. I started with a white piece of cardstock. I blended on Wild Honey Distress Oxide ink to the entire cardstock. I stamped the bunny with Versafine Black Onyx ink. I also stamped the bunny a second time, on a smaller piece of blended colored cardstock. I cut the cardstock into squares (a full-size, and a smaller square to highlight the face). I stamped some of the floral and butterfly images from the stamp set in several Distress Oxide inks. I colored the bunny with Prismacolor pencils, right over the ink blended background. I colored the eyes green, which makes me happy! After finishing the coloring, I layered the face square over the full card panel, after matting both squares with black cardstock. I stamped out the Happy and Thoughts sentiments using Lawn Fawn's Happy Happy Happy stamp set, and die cut the sentiments. I added Glossy Accents over the bunny's eyes, nose, and mouth. I also added sparkly stickles over the whiskers and butterflies.<br />

I stamped some floral images from an IO bunny stamp set inside, and used the sentiment from that stamp set too. It makes me laugh!<br />

I hope my friend likes this card, and knows that I am thrilled for her Happiness Project! It is a lot of work on her part, but she has framed the work well, knowing that the hard work she does improves happiness for her, her staff, and all of us who get to be made happy from her hard work. Thanks so much Roslyn!!<br />

Hello! Today's card is a birthday card for a dear friend ... I wanted to do something happy and bright, and this card was what I created. I used the current <a href="https://www.lawnfawnatics.com/announcement/lawn-fawnatics-challenge-51-card-sketch" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Lawn Fawnatics Challenge: Card Sketch</span></a> as the inspiration, and I will be entering it into that challenge too. I am on a total Quilted Backdrop kick right now and die cut it from white cardstock, and layered it over some orange cardstock as a base. I also used Lawn Fawn's Little Flowers die cuts and Grassy Borders to create the center image. I die cut Lawn Fawn's Happy Birthday Border in two colors and glued them to the image too. And, stamped out a sentiment from a Lawn Fawn stamp set, and banner, and die cut the banner.<br />

Hi!

<br />
<br />
My plan was to create a few memorable scenes from the movie. I started by cutting out a panel using the Peekaboo Backdrop die. Then, I created little vignettes inside each panel. The first one is a memorable sentiment. Remember towards the end, when Navin R Johnson is walking around, saying, "All I need is ... " and he picks up some things? And keeps grabbing other random stuff he sees? This scene cracks me up! I stamped out that part of the sentiment using the (retired) Clark's ABCs stamp set.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpyeSBsb0AeplcqfyTw9liDtbPGbU4pBZNJhzwfOzU5qOMyqY80XVpw370iUk_qO-GiCO5y9PMslnA6fb4F19KDle1_7Q4oro03ubGx8VYK2kejUoY8DspHsfFHai9cDI_ExDttCROC7Mv/s1600/19-0317_DadJerkBdayCard_02-Sentiment.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="478" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpyeSBsb0AeplcqfyTw9liDtbPGbU4pBZNJhzwfOzU5qOMyqY80XVpw370iUk_qO-GiCO5y9PMslnA6fb4F19KDle1_7Q4oro03ubGx8VYK2kejUoY8DspHsfFHai9cDI_ExDttCROC7Mv/s640/19-0317_DadJerkBdayCard_02-Sentiment.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
One of the things that Navin R Johnson says is he needs this chair. He picks it up and carries it around as he grabs a paddle ball and other things. I didn't have a chair the right size, so I used the lounge chair in the retired Dad's Day stamp set, and stamped it with Fake Tan ink since the chair is kinda orange in that scene in the movie.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0lXkst6-9FbG9RfZKpFXNPFORbTMq0UIt3O3hGBHi9pvWp337QshrJjSU_q3eYJUdvhPMkJMs7zz9Zf92f05ZrAtuKIiQuWEHQovMwEN1LEnEUsFjH1Qu16FFOGhnp-c7ee8cjmyCAsD8/s1600/19-0317_DadJerkBdayCard_03-Chair.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0lXkst6-9FbG9RfZKpFXNPFORbTMq0UIt3O3hGBHi9pvWp337QshrJjSU_q3eYJUdvhPMkJMs7zz9Zf92f05ZrAtuKIiQuWEHQovMwEN1LEnEUsFjH1Qu16FFOGhnp-c7ee8cjmyCAsD8/s640/19-0317_DadJerkBdayCard_03-Chair.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
And, remember the scene when he is in the bathtub, with his dog (I can't say the real name here, but in the censored version, his name is "Stupid"), and he is spouting his feelings out to his girlfriend? Welp, had to capture that scene too! I used the boy and dog from Bicycle Built for Two, and the bubble bath, tub, and bubbles from Rub a Dub Dub.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWtj_y35rZ52yfwEQPQ79ir4cJHRpQGLYBvsQHw_CpLsbUSPwfIHTfvWg6HDT2WMVswbKTbjU5zvIVSFSUKpOFQ-F7Rxbh6R6RAWhH5lhKsEsWPnM8-YcH8jf7bGqYeUwPR8VRmh3fz6-j/s1600/19-0317_DadJerkBdayCard_04-Bathtub.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWtj_y35rZ52yfwEQPQ79ir4cJHRpQGLYBvsQHw_CpLsbUSPwfIHTfvWg6HDT2WMVswbKTbjU5zvIVSFSUKpOFQ-F7Rxbh6R6RAWhH5lhKsEsWPnM8-YcH8jf7bGqYeUwPR8VRmh3fz6-j/s640/19-0317_DadJerkBdayCard_04-Bathtub.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
And, Navin R Johnson ends up working in a carnival. He has to engineer the kiddie train and he hates every second of it. I used the ferris wheel from Admit One (retired), the boy from Bicycle Built for Two, and the trains from Coaster Critters.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKyaERhlnRgdBEUb_YRiXIVo-JP0ztzecMmymtO4ljXnasO9b0jUIAi5El7in9ZkqXHoxMb8P7mImllQNJ5odEGmaarmmK5ipVaK1NBYcSvX2dtAl56pnYtf37-ce98J2QrqZE1F2LiWHb/s1600/19-0317_DadJerkBdayCard_05-Train.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKyaERhlnRgdBEUb_YRiXIVo-JP0ztzecMmymtO4ljXnasO9b0jUIAi5El7in9ZkqXHoxMb8P7mImllQNJ5odEGmaarmmK5ipVaK1NBYcSvX2dtAl56pnYtf37-ce98J2QrqZE1F2LiWHb/s640/19-0317_DadJerkBdayCard_05-Train.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
For the inside, I used Big Scripty Words and Clark's ABCs for the sentiment, and stamped them using Jet Black, Raspberry, and Artichoke inks. I also stamped the cake and slice from Year Three and colored them to look like chocolate cake, my Dad's favorite cake flavor.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3LcPMA8xn4HZlzo6tQoqugt7S5AFRKpbTQenfsJuG-0RIwuhzc4eHCPLXkuuuIsESki9sUeusb9lH7dsY_cFGeB9IFZd77Wq2xTJUgDliAICnAx9Y6j8kPk0ZSj9npaHlc04Z4NoHnjIL/s1600/19-0317_DadJerkBdayCard_06-Inside.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="484" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3LcPMA8xn4HZlzo6tQoqugt7S5AFRKpbTQenfsJuG-0RIwuhzc4eHCPLXkuuuIsESki9sUeusb9lH7dsY_cFGeB9IFZd77Wq2xTJUgDliAICnAx9Y6j8kPk0ZSj9npaHlc04Z4NoHnjIL/s640/19-0317_DadJerkBdayCard_06-Inside.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I hope Dad gets this, and figures out it is an homage to "The Jerk" ... and that I don't think HE is a jerk! Hahaha.<br />

Hi! Today's card was so much fun to make! I made this for my good friend who is young at heart. I figured this would make him chuckle, and it is interactive, which makes it even more fun.

I also used the new Lawn Fawn <a href="https://www.lawnfawn.com/products/lets-toast-pull-tab-add-on" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Let's Toast Pull Tab Add-On</span></a> interactive slider die too ... you will get to see what appears further below!

<br />
I started by stamping out the images, using my Tim Holtz Stamp Platform, and Lawn Fawn's Jet Black ink, a Copic-friendly ink. I colored the images, and then replaced them back inside the stamp platform and inked them up with Versafine Black Onyx ink, and then sprinkled on Sparkle N Sprinkle's Sparkle embossing powder, and heat set them. I then die cut out the images using the matching lawn cuts (dies). I also stamped some of the stamp set images, with brown ink, onto cardstock panels. Then, I cut the edges of the cardstock panels to make the edges look distressed and "old map-like" and then blended some brown distress ink to the edges. I also spritzed a bit of water onto the cardstock panels, and then blotted the water drops away to give some more distressing and texturing to the background cardstock panels. I figured out where I wanted to place my images, and the slider surprise element, and then die cut the slider mechanism and die cut the "slit" portion onto the cardstock background panel. I attached everything together, and my slider was ready!<br />

<br />
I die cut the "arrow pull tab" and colored it with blue Copic marker and attached it to the edge of the pull tab mechanism. Here is what happens, when you pull up on the pull tab ... the treasure slides out from behind the palm trees! So much fun!!!<br />

For the inside, I stamped out some sentiments using a Gina K Design ink, and then stamped it again with Versamark ink, and sprinkled on more Sparkle embossing powder and heat set it. I layered it inside the card, and this card was done!<br />

I inked up the Impression Obsession Free Spirit Dot Solid background stamp, and stamped it onto a card panel. I didn't make it a solid ink color, to give the background a bit of softness. I stamped out Heartfelt Creations Classic Rose stamps onto colored cardstock with colored inks, and then die cut them using the matching Classic Rose dies. I then shaped them in the 3D Classic Rose Shaping Mold (a MUST HAVE!, these make the flower petals shape so well!), and layered the flowers and adhered them with Dries Clear glue, and adhered them to the front of the card. I die cut out the Birch Press Design Big Thanks Sugar Script die sentiment (with white cardstock) and background (with black cardstock). I layered them together, and swiped some Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss onto the sentiment to give it some extra sparkle! This photo shows the sparkle, but it is really hard to capture on camera, and is much more shimmery in person.<br />

<br />
Because this is for my Fairy Godmother, I had to put a fairy in the card! Lawn Fawn's Fairy Friends stamp set was perfect for this! I stamped a fairy, her wand, some sparkles, and a sentiment, all from the Fairy Friends stamp set, using Lawn Fawn's Jet Black ink, on a card panel inside the card. I colored the fairy with Copic markers and added some dress dots with a white gel pen. I dabbed a teeny bit of Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss pen inside each of the sparkles.<br />

<br />
Here is a close up of the fairy. I also swiped some gold ink around the edges of the card panel too, to give it a little bit something extra.<br />

My Fairy Godmother gives me awesome advice and helps me out quite a bit. I really appreciate his advice and help. Thank you, Mike! I hope you enjoyed this card and appreciate all those special people in your life that give you a boost in life.<br />

I used Lawn Fawn's Double Slider Surprise die to make this card interactive and fun! I started by stamping out all the images with Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink, which is a Copic friendly ink. I colored all the images and then put them back in the Stamp Platform, and stamped the images again, using Versafine Onyx Black ink. Then, I sprinkled on Sparkle N Sprinkle's Sparkle embossing powder and heat set them. I die cut them out using Lawn Fawn's Some Bunny lawn cuts and my Tonic Tangerine die cutting machine. I also die cut out the panels of the Double Slider Surprise die set and then blended Distress Inks onto them and spritzed them with water using the Distress Sprayer. I blotted off the water splotches, and ended up with a nicely textured background! I did the same for the hillside borders - I ink blended them, spritzed them, then die cut them and layered them up to create the ground and garden area.<br />

I assembled the Double Slider Surprise, following the directions in Kelly Marie's reveal video (which are so helpful!) and layered the slider card over a panel of Chill Plaid, layered over a yellow card base. Here is a photo of the card with the sliders pulled out.<br />

I made this as a Thank You card, and stamped out a sentiment from the (unfortunately) retired Grand Greetings stamp set from Lawn Fawn. I also stamped some sparkles in that stamp set along the bottom for a little extra fun.<br />

Today I am sharing some Mahalo cards I made, using Alt E New's <a href="https://altenew.com/products/totally-tropical-stamp-set" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Totally Tropical</span></a> stamp set. I needed to mass produce a lot of thank you cards, and these layering stamps fit the bill! I could get lots of color without having to color each image. I stamped the layers for the hibiscus with several pink inks with a black ink outline, masked it off and then stamped more flowers and leaves with a rainbow of ink colors: yellows, oranges, blues, and greens, along with black ink for the outlines. I made over 30 of these, and will be sending out a lot of thank you notes soon!<br />

<br />
After stamping the images, I stamped out the sentiment from Alt E New's Totally Tropical in gold ink and then covered it with Sparkle N Sprinkle's Sparkle embossing powder and heat set it. Then, I did some ink blending with Distress Oxide inks along the outer edges of all the card panels. I also splattered some metallic watercolors onto the panel as well. I created card bases, and then adhered the panel onto the front.<br />

<br />
I also jazzed up a few of them. I swiped on Nuvo's Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss Pen onto the pink hibiscus and squeezed on some yellow stickles onto the yellow and blue flower centers. The shine is hard to show in a photo, but it was super sparkly in real life!<br />

Okay ... so my friend challenged me to use ALL of my stamps ... challenge accepted! I store my stamps alphabetically, by manufacturer, and then by stamp set name. I am starting at the beginning and gonna work my way through. I of course can use things out of order, but I will also be plodding along. So, my first stamp set is this set by <a href="https://amusestudio.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Amuse Studio</span></a>. I don't know the name of the set. I stamped out the flourishes in a few different colors, both first and second generation stamping. I also Copic markered the briefs to make them stand out a bit more. And, a swipe of the Nuvo Shimmer Glitter Gloss Pen over the briefs, a blend of distress ink along the card panel edges, and a 1/4" corner rounder on the card panel, and this card was done! Simple, easy, and fun ... one down, don't know how many more to go!<br />

Today's project are some Santa cookies I made .... Just had to share these :) My friend, let's call her Jody, bakes a LOT and is an amazing cook and baker. She made some amazing cookies recently and I asked her to teach me how to make the Santa cookies. So, being the awesome person that she is, she invited me over and supplied all the goodies. I brought two boxes of Nutter Butters, and we made these Santas!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicVgYG8ZGf6PKIk9nSt88tS9BbQmZyqAcc15PF7bEQwBvYZqZ_TOVSbjbkTR_d6SUStR3On00-XZkJadGrv-PZDN7LIRsF-gM-jlMe8ILLNPyqxcpUE6MN-nUQ5xbMmaALMsY93nRBm9vJ/s1600/18-1231_SantaNutterButters_01-Cookies.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicVgYG8ZGf6PKIk9nSt88tS9BbQmZyqAcc15PF7bEQwBvYZqZ_TOVSbjbkTR_d6SUStR3On00-XZkJadGrv-PZDN7LIRsF-gM-jlMe8ILLNPyqxcpUE6MN-nUQ5xbMmaALMsY93nRBm9vJ/s640/18-1231_SantaNutterButters_01-Cookies.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
To make these, melt white melting chocolate and dredge the bottom half of the nutter butter through the melted white chocolate, place a cinnamon dot as the nose, set them aside on wax paper. Once all of the Santas have their beard and nose, dredge the top half of the nutter butter through white melting chocolate again, and then scrape off most of the white chocolate above the wide part of the nutter butter. Immediately dredge the hat part through red sparkling sugar and set aside. Then, dab a drop of white melting chocolate onto the base of a white chocolate chip and place it onto the hat for the tassel. To finish off the cookies, melt a few mini chocolate chips and then dab a drop of melted chocolate chips onto the base of two mini chocolate chips and place them for the eyes. Easy peasy!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs0FWZbn20irsKhTcUlEr5MwCKTkhcI_aDGWIT0RcLoZLr3sQmnHHY0mQ2S6FRBPn3KIxXax71XxHxypO6HZ2FdLXVDUCrRxRepVtdyD00Wk8XI6I4PCNZlA60ZYA2SsVd5C_Rf_t1KZOn/s1600/18-1231_SantaNutterButters_02-Tin.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs0FWZbn20irsKhTcUlEr5MwCKTkhcI_aDGWIT0RcLoZLr3sQmnHHY0mQ2S6FRBPn3KIxXax71XxHxypO6HZ2FdLXVDUCrRxRepVtdyD00Wk8XI6I4PCNZlA60ZYA2SsVd5C_Rf_t1KZOn/s640/18-1231_SantaNutterButters_02-Tin.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
So easy ... right? Here are two FUN fails! Or, as they say, "Nailed it!" Yep, sometimes one can make some mistakes :) But, they still tasted good, so it doesn't matter if I have a cross-eyed Santa or a three-eyed Santa. It all tastes the same!<br />

Happy day! I made this magical unicorn card for my niece's birthday. She likes horses, and her favorite color is blue. So, I made a blue magical unicorn :) Let's peek at the card, shall we?<br />

<br />
I started out by laying out the die cuts onto a piece of cardstock to "size" where I wanted things to be. Then, I masked off the area that the ears and the face would be with trimmed post-it notes so I didn't stamp in those areas. I then stamped the star cluster from the Magical Unicorn stamp set, using Lawn Fawn's Moonstone ink. I stamped the star clusters all around the background of the card. I also stamped out the unicorn horn with Versamark Ink and sprinkled on Sparkle N Sprinkle Royal Blue embossing powder. I heat set it and then die cut the horn with my Tonic Tangerine die cutting machine. I also die cut the ears, flowers, and leaves with the coordinating dies. I swiped the ears with Versamark ink and sprinkled on Sparkle embossing powder from Sparkle N Sprinkle. I heat set these as well. I layered up the ears, horn, flowers and leaves (which I had also stamped with coordinating ink colors from my stash), and adhered everything down using adhesive and foam adhesives for some dimension. I stamped the eye lashes and sentiment with Black Onyx ink and then sprinkled on more Sparkle embossing powder and heat set it.<br />

<br />
I stamped a sentiment inside the card using Versamark ink and sprinkled on more Royal Blue embossing powder and heat set it. Here is a close-up of the inside sentiment.<br />

<br />
And, because my niece wants Costco cash cards for her birthday and Christmas (since she is saving up for a very specific camera at Costco), I made a gift card holder using Lawn Fawn's Gift Card Pop-up lawn cut. I adhered the gift card popup to the inside of the card, and slipped in the Costco gift card.<br />

I think she will love this card, I sure hope so. Happy Birthday to my sweet Hannah!<br />

I stamped out the Totally Tropical stamp set by Alt E New, and also used masking to layer the hibiscus and yellow plumeria together, with the leaves surrounding them. I also stamped and masked the leaves at the bottom of the card too.<br />

I stamped the Mahalo sentiment using my Stamp Platform, and stamped in with two colors to give it some gradience. I also swiped on some Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss pen over the sentiment as well. Then, I pulled out some Mica gold watercolor from my stash, and flicked gold watercolor paint onto the cardfront.<br />

<br />
I also swiped some Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss pen over the hisbiscus image. I also swiped more gold watercolor along the edges of the card panel. I layered it onto a blue cardstock base, and the card was done!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This card was so much fun to make, and it came together pretty easily since I used the layering stamp set to color in all the images, and my Stamp Platform. A bit of splatter and a swipe of glitter pen, and it was done. I love tropical florals, so this stamp set will get used quite a bit!<br />
<br />

I used the Stamp Platform to stamp out the Hibiscus Bouquet image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, which is Copic friendly. I colored the images with Copics, and then stamped them again with Versafine Black Onyx ink. Then, I sprinkled on Sparkle N Sprinkle's Sparkle embossing powder and heat set them. Then, I stamped the Fierce and Fabulous sentiment using Versafine Black Onyx ink. I swiped some Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss pen across the flowers to give them a little extra sparkle!<br />

<br />
I stamped a lot of thank yous inside the card. My dear friend is fluent in several languages so I thought these thank yous would be so much fun! I used different colored inks too. And, I also used Lawn Fawn's Gift Card Pop-Up to die cut a gift card holder, which I adhered inside the card so I could slip in a thank you gift card.<br />

I love this stamp set, and will definitely be making lots of cards with this Hibiscus Bouqet. It is gorgeous!<br />

<br />
I stamped out the images using my Stamp Platform and Lawn Fawn's Jet Black ink, which is Copic friendly. I colored the images with Copic markers. Then, I placed them back inside the Stamp Platform and stamped them again, with Versafine Onyx Black ink. And then I sprinkled on Sparkle N Sprinkle's Sparkle embossing powder and heat set it. This gave the images a bright black line again. And then I die cut them with the matching lawn cuts and my Tonic Tangerine die cutting machine.<br />

<br />
I also die cut some tags using Lawn Fawn's Tag, You're It die for the background. I also die cut some of the papers using Lawn Fawn's Stitched Hillside Borders lawn cuts to give the tag some background and grounding.<br />

I also stamped sentiments on the tags with Versafine Black Onyx ink and sprinkled on Sparkle embossing powder and heat set them.<br />

<br />
I swiped my Anti Static Bag on the for the sentiment, placed my Lawn Fawn Say What? Christmas Critters sentiment bubble stamp inside the Stamp Platform, and stamped out the image using Versamark Ink. I sprinkled on Sparkle N Sprinkle's Christmas Green embossing powder. I did a double layer of the embossing powder, and then stamped the sentiment over it, with Versamark ink and sprinkled on Sparkle N Sprinkle's White Detail embossing powder and heat set it. I also sprinkled on some Sparkle N Sprinkle's Super Thick Silver and heat set it from the bottom, for some extra sparkle for the unicorn. I also die cut out a frame with Lawn Fawn's patterned paper, using the Tag, You're It tag lawn cut, and put a Stitched Rectangle inside to create the frame. I tied up all the tags with some Lawn Fawn lawn trimmings from my stash. I also swiped some Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Pen on the images.<br />

This puppy makes me so happy! I sized the digital image, using my computer in a word program. I sized the puppy, then sized the balloons and layered them behind the pup! This is one of the things I love most about digi stamps - you can make them any size you want and put anything in the foreground or background. So much fun! After everything was sized to what I wanted, I printed two copies of the image, onto white cardstock, using my color ink jet printer. I fussy cut out one of the pups. I rolled on some Nuvo Smooth Precision Glue Pen to the hearts on the pup's shirt, and sprinkled on Frosted Carmine glitter. I also drew a bit of glue pen onto the pup himself, and sprinkled on Golden Wheat glitter. I swiped some Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss Pen onto his nose and eyes, and then covered both with a squeeze of Sparkle N Sprinkle Dimensional Glue. I mounted this pup onto a Mini Action Wobbler and adhered it onto the card panel.<br />

For the big heart, I had also sized the sentiment onto the balloon heart. I squeezed on some Dimensional Glue onto the exclamation point, and sprinkled on Sparkling Snow glitter. I rolled on more Nuvo Smooth Precision Glue Pen onto the heart for some accents, and sprinkled on Tooth Fairy glitter. This gave the heart a little extra pop!<br />

<div data-mce-style="font-family: arial;" style="font-family: arial;">
I also decorated the image. I die cut it with Tonic's Swirling Frame Layering Die Set and then layered some 3/4" Tear-ific Tape behind the edge. I pressed Raspberry Soda glitter into the tear-ific tape which adhered to the adhesive that appeared through the frame edge. I burnished in the glitter with my finger tool and then dusted off the unadhered glitter with my Glitter Brush. This really made the white cardstock pop too, and is such a fun and easy way to add a lot of sparkle to the card! I layered this over a pink cardstock and fussy cut it to have the pink just peek out of the edges. I layered all of this over a black card base.<br />

This was a really fun and easy card to make. Those digi stamps really make it easy - and I used the pre-colored digi image as well, so I didn't have to spend any time coloring, I just got to decorate and have fun! I know you will love this sweet Puppy Love stamp set. You gotta get it - perfect for our upcoming Valentine's Day!<br />
<br />
<br />
And, this is my last post for Sparkle N Sprinkle. It has been an absolute pleasure and honor being on this company's Design Team since 2015. I cherish the memories I made with these amazing gals. I miss you all, already!<br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by. Have a <i>magical</i> day!

I stamped out the Simply Celebrate Winter images using my Tim Holtz Stamp Platform, and Lawn Fawn's Jet Black ink, which is a Copic friendly ink. I colored the images using a rainbow assortment of Copic markers. Overall, I kept the coloring simple (without shading) and colored everything in rainbow order. I used the Simply Celebrate Winter lawn cuts and my Tonic Tangerine machine to die cut out each image. I popped them up with foam dimensionals and adhered them to white cardstock that I die cut with the Lawn Fawn Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables. I matted each rectangle with a coordinating color of solid cardstock, and layered this onto assorted Lawn Fawn's Really Rainbow Christmas patterned paper, in the 12x12 size. I layered these onto a cardbase, and the cards were done! Super easy and fun to whip these out!<br />

Here is a close up of the ornament strip. I used a lot of Lawn Fawn stamp sets (see above) to stamp out sentiments on each card panel. I stamped these in the Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink as well. And, I covered certain parts of each image with Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss pens to make those parts sparkle!<br />

This stamp set has a gorgeous image of a violet plant in a pot, a stand alone violet and leaves, and a sweet butterfly. Let's check out what I made, using this gorgeous stamp set!<br />

I stamped the image onto Embossable Acetate. I used my Tim Holtz Stamp Platform. I treated the acetate with my Anti Static Bag and inked up my stamp with Versafine Black Onyx ink. I stamped the image onto the acetate, sprinkled on Sparkle embossing powder and heat set it. The Sparkle embossing powder is clear with sparkly glitter. It is so much fun, and packs an extra punch from just Clear embossing powder. I use it a lot! After stamping and heat embossing, I turned my stamped acetate over, and painted on some Brushable Glue to the backside of the stamped image. I brushed glue on the leaves area, then sprinkled on Gecko glitter. After it dried, I brushed on Brushable Glue to the violets. I brushed the "inside" of the petals and sprinkled on Caspia Sea glitter. Then, I did the outer edges of the violets by brushing on more glue and sprinkling on Purple Fig glitter. I used Butterscotch glitter for the inner part of the flowers. For the pot, I sprinkled on Peruvian Lily and Tiger Orange. The sentiment was heat embossed with Royal Purple, after treating some cardstock with the Anti Static Bag, and stamping it with Versamark ink.<br />

I created a shaker by die cutting ovals using the Mixed Edge Oval Layering Basics Die set from Tonic, using fun foam. I layered these ovals together to create the "height" for the shaker. I die cut an oval from cardstock (without the "inner" part cut out) and used it for the back of the shaker. I layered the oval fun foam and adhered them together with Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive. For the top layer, I die cut another oval, with the "inner" part cut out, from chipboard. I inked up the chipboard with Versamark Ink, and sprinkled on White Detail embossing powder and heat set it. I did this several times to get a solid coat over the chipboard. Then, I stamped the butterfly with Versamark Ink all around the oval frame, and sprinkled on Wisteria and Amethyst embossing powders to create lots of butterfly images on the frame. I sprinkled on some Super Thick White in random places and heat embossed it. I did this just to give some extra depth to the images and background. I also stamped out some butterflies on patterned paper and heat embossed them with the Wisteria and Amethyst embossing powders. I fussy cut those and layered them around the frame too. I used an assortment of HAI sequins for the shaker bits. This photo shows several of them.<br />

<br />
Here is another view of the ornament. When I finished it, I squeezed on some Nuvo Gold Coast Glitter Drops. And, as I finished off the ornament, I thought I needed something a bit more. So, I die cut some green cardstock using the Clematis Vine Simply Screen. I rolled on some Nuvo Smooth Precision Glue Pen and sprinkled on some Gecko glitter. I layered these vines under the frame to give the ornament some extra flair.<br />

Hi! One of the December stamp releases for Sparkle N Sprinkle is A Big Birthday Wish, which is fantastic! I love big, bold sentiments and this one delivers! And we all need birthday stamps. Just sayin'. I wanted to do something a little different for this birthday wish, so I created a mobile, and made all the parts involved, by printing out digi paper and die cutting shapes. Let's check it out!<br />

I love embossing powder! To create the sentiment panel, I treated cardstock with the Anti Static Bag, then inserted the cardstock in the Tim Holtz Stamp Platform. I lined up my stamps, adhered them to the lid, and then inked them up with Versamark ink. I stamped them onto the panel, and sprinkled on embossing powder. I used Orange Marmalade for the "birthday" and Cherry for the "happy". I die cut the cardstock with Tonic's Swirling Frame Layering Die Set and then ink blended some purple ink onto the edges of the die cut, while the die was still on the paper - this creates a subtle white border! I then traced the die onto some solid cardstock and fussy cut it out. This gave me a slightly larger "frame" to layer behind the die cut panel.<br />

<br />
I created the "dangles" too, for this mobile. I printed out some of the Violets for You digi papers, and then die cut them with Tonic's Hegazon Layering Basics Die Set, and layered them together (more on this below). I stamped out the butterflies, onto more of the Violets for You digi papers, with the Sunset Serenade Diamond Hybrid Inks, and then overstamped them with Versamark (using the Stamp Platform). I sprinkled on Sparkle embossing powder and heat set them. This gave the butterflies a bit of color, gloss, and sparkle! I layered them onto the "dangles" using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Here is another close up of the top of the mobile. I die cut a layer with black cardstock, using the Toni Swirling Frame Layering Die Set, and my Tonic Tangerine. I layered this under the sentiment panel, and placed all of these onto a repurposed chipboard tag. I punched holes in the top and strung some ribbon. I also stamped out some violets, like the butterflies noted above, and adhered them on the top and along the dangles too. I squeezed on some Nuvo Crystal Drops in Red Berry and Blue Babe. I also used my Jewel Picker to pick up and place some Hai Iridescent Diamonds onto the panel too. These are SO AWESOME!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
And another image of it hanging. I used big and little dangles on the top and bottom and the butterflies and violets for the middle, for each line of dangles.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiIa9kGu1Y0Kd4UaOMTaLErIGp4J4q_diWBJRoXLI9fTCvcE4ovTUJGou_9NWf4908MnuG7Z_X15incn1zFWtYp-LKZTIOdzj48qWQkmcd2KUzrNPbkfC7Tr-l4VcUUIjibPXxMwWRFZlf/s1600/18-1205_931-ABigBirthdayWish_05-Hanging.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiIa9kGu1Y0Kd4UaOMTaLErIGp4J4q_diWBJRoXLI9fTCvcE4ovTUJGou_9NWf4908MnuG7Z_X15incn1zFWtYp-LKZTIOdzj48qWQkmcd2KUzrNPbkfC7Tr-l4VcUUIjibPXxMwWRFZlf/s640/18-1205_931-ABigBirthdayWish_05-Hanging.jpg" width="326" /></a></div>
<br />
And finally ... here is how I created the dangles. I die cut five of the same sizes of hexagon for each "dangle" ball, from the Violets for You digi papers I printed out. I scored them down the center, and then folded them. I used Tear-ific tape, and placed it inside two opposite edges. I adhered five together to create the dangle ball. I fussy cut out the violets and butterflies, and adhered them to vellum circles I die cut using Tonic's Scalloped Circle Layering Basics Die Set. Here are all the dangles, before I started stringing them together.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Here is one of the balls, almost finished. I left one edge unadhered, until I wrapped it around the line to dangle it. I squeezed on a strip of Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive, inside the dangle ball to attach to the line inside. I peeled off the last bit of release paper and adhered the ball shut. This worked really well to hold the dangle ball onto the line.<br />

This was a really fun project to make! I was really happy with how it came out, and I think I might have to do some more mobiles and other dimensional projects in the future! And, this A Big Birthday Wish stamp set is fantastic! I know I will use it a lot!<br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by. Have a <i>magical</i> day!

I made these star-shaped cards, perfect for the current Lawn Fawnatics Challenge 41 - <a href="https://www.lawnfawnatics.com/challenges/lawn-fawnatics-challenge-41-shaped-cards" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Shaped Cards</span></a>. Let's check out these cards!<br />

<br />
I used Lawn Fawn's <a href="https://www.lawnfawn.com/products/fairy-friends" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Fairy Friends</span></a> stamp set. I stamped the images with my <a href="https://sparklensprinkle.net/products/the-stamp-platform-1708e?rfsn=454106.9bbce5" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Tim Holtz Stamp Platform</span></a>, and <a href="https://sparklensprinkle.net/products/memento-ink-tuxedo-black-me-900?rfsn=454106.9bbce5" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Memento Tuxedo Black</span></a> ink, a Copic friendly ink. I colored my images with Copic markers, and then put them back into the Stamp Platform, and stamped them again with <a href="https://sparklensprinkle.net/products/onyx-black-versafine-pad-tsvf082?rfsn=454106.9bbce5" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Versafine Onyx Black</span></a>. I sprinkled on Sparkle N Sprinkle's <a href="https://sparklensprinkle.net/products/sparkle-embossing-powder?rfsn=454106.9bbce5" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Sparkle</span></a> embossing powder and heat set it. This is one of my favorite ways of being able to color with Copics with a Copic friendly ink, and then ending up with a good solid black outline that is embossed! The key is the stamp positioner. Over-stamping is a breeze! I squeezed on some Dries Clear glue to a few strategic locations, like the wings, and sprinkled on some <a href="https://sparklensprinkle.net/products/sparkling-snow-ultra-fine-glitter-g1003?rfsn=454106.9bbce5" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Sparkling Snow</span></a> glitter from Sparkle N Sprinkle. I die cut some stars using Lawn Fawn's <a href="https://www.lawnfawn.com/products/puffy-star-stackables" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Puffy Star Stackables</span></a> dies, using my <a href="https://sparklensprinkle.net/products/tangerine-machine-with-plates-138e?rfsn=454106.9bbce5" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Tonic Tangerine</span></a>.<br />

<br />
I also die cut out some clouds using Lawn Fawn's <a href="https://www.lawnfawn.com/products/puffy-cloud-borders" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Puffy Cloud Borders</span></a> from vellum and cream cardstock. I layered these all up, and squeezed on some more adhesive and sprinkled more glitter.<br />

<br />
And, I used my NEW "made by" stamp that I purchased from <a href="https://joscie.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Bossy Joscie Crafty Goods</span></a>. I LOVE it! She does custom and personalized stamps, and a lot of other great things! She also created an electronic image for me that are on each photo. Thank you so much Joscie!!<br />

Hi! This card is a Thank You for our dog and house sitter. I did a Bridge Shape card, since the latest <a href="https://www.lawnfawnatics.com/challenges/lawn-fawnatics-challenge-41-shaped-cards" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Lawn Fawnatics Challenge</span></a> is Shaped Cards. I stamped out the house from Lawn Fawn's <a href="https://www.lawnfawn.com/products/happy-haunting" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Happy Haunting</span></a>, I stamped two pups and the tree from the <a href="https://www.lawnfawn.com/products/critters-in-the-burbs" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Critters in the 'Burbs</span></a>. Here is the card.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCwihpBG7ThUVUomCa1Xy-aaEj9shMmyi9ijw1OpKxPA8GLrTsHQEkqSc59n1UTOHfWlQjXKazbIfjtktwiskyWJGqkuPSCb14veKGJQJZHFcObW3op-BZvug6xIygZ7VsSUZlRx1qCcEH/s1600/18-1201_Amanda_01-Front.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="482" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCwihpBG7ThUVUomCa1Xy-aaEj9shMmyi9ijw1OpKxPA8GLrTsHQEkqSc59n1UTOHfWlQjXKazbIfjtktwiskyWJGqkuPSCb14veKGJQJZHFcObW3op-BZvug6xIygZ7VsSUZlRx1qCcEH/s640/18-1201_Amanda_01-Front.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I wanted some dimension for the card, and found the bridge card design on the internets. I cut and scored my card base. I added in the patterned paper panels using Lawn Fawn's <a href="https://www.lawnfawn.com/products/knit-picky-fall-petite-paper-pack" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Knit Picky Fall Petite Paper Pack</span></a>. I also die cut the green paper using the <a href="https://www.lawnfawn.com/products/grassy-border" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Grassy Border</span></a> die. I also stamped out the thank you sentiment using the <a href="https://www.lawnfawn.com/products/grand-greetings" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Grand Greetings</span></a> (retired) stamp set and <span style="color: magenta;"><a href="https://sparklensprinkle.net/products/onyx-black-versafine-pad-tsvf082?rfsn=454106.9bbce5" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Versafine Black Onyx</span></a> </span>Ink. I sprinkled on Sparkle N Sprinkle's <a href="https://sparklensprinkle.net/products/sparkle-embossing-powder?rfsn=454106.9bbce5" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Sparkle</span></a> embossing powder and heat set it. Then, I die cut it with Lawn Fawn's <a href="https://www.lawnfawn.com/products/everyday-sentiment-banners" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Everyday Sentiment Banners</span></a>. Then, I layered the sentiment over a card panel strip, and attached it to the front of the card. This panel holds the card in the bridge shape.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsq1YcDjNSvESPJuVev92ZcrrwJbigvVfdmOUqWMiqrajo68Q1gylp6CymrZwDbrRkRzc6AvApAKJIiylOW0mNswE0MTXUH6_wCkrt9j7sSfYGr1BBgdDv2OmSYwJgLk-B_EHIw-2V1hTW/s1600/18-1201_Amanda_02-BridgeShape.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="390" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsq1YcDjNSvESPJuVev92ZcrrwJbigvVfdmOUqWMiqrajo68Q1gylp6CymrZwDbrRkRzc6AvApAKJIiylOW0mNswE0MTXUH6_wCkrt9j7sSfYGr1BBgdDv2OmSYwJgLk-B_EHIw-2V1hTW/s640/18-1201_Amanda_02-BridgeShape.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
And, this card can be flatted to mail and fits perfectly inside an envelope!<br />

Hi! Today's card is another new release from Sparkle N Sprinkle, for November. This one is so sweet, it is "Doctor at Heart" stamp set. I used the digi version, and I chose the pre-colored image which freed up my time to bling it up instead of doing a lot of coloring first. Let's peek at this card!<br />

I sized the digital image on my computer, and then printed it with my color printer. I die cut the image with a banner die. I also blended on some blue distress ink to the edges. I then swiped the Nuvo Clear Mark embossing pen along the outer edge, sprinkled on Sapphire embossing powder and heat set it. I also used the Nuvo Smooth Precision Glue Pen to roll on some adhesive along the edges and folds of the boy's clothes. I sprinkled on Sunset glitter for his hair, Butterscotch glitter for his shirt, and Rapture Blue for his shorts. I also added a wee bit of red, using Gypsy Red glitter, to the heart on his stethoscope. I layered a piece of Sticker Paper behind the banner shape, trimmed it, and then sprinkled on Sunset glitter as a frame.<br />

<br />
I also die cut some cardstock using my Tonic Tangerine and the Tonic ARchway Stripe Invite Insert die set. I spritzed on some Nebula Blue mica mist to give it some dimension, and squeezed on some White Blizzard glitter drops.<br />

<br />
I printed out a sentiment, cut it into a fish tail shape, inked the edges, and cut another fish tail banner shape to frame it. I layered these two together, adhered them under the panel edge, and added more White Blizzard glitter drops.<br />

<br />
I colored a card base with Nuvo Custard Cream and Pacific Teal embellisment mousses. I just swirled some colors around until I had enough color to give it some depth and fun. I then spritzed the card panel with Nebula Blue mica mist. I also sprinkled on some Super Thick Silver and Sapphire embossing powders and heat them set as well. I layered everything together, and this card was done!<br />

This was a really fun card to make. I really like using pre-colored digi stamps. Sparkle N Sprinkle includes both a pre-colored and non-colored image so you can do what makes you happy with these digi stamps. And they can be sized to whatever you want. So easy and fun!

<br />
I started out by die cutting a bunch of diamond shapes, from the Photo Play Paper Crane Collection Pack, and the Tonic Tangerine die cutting machine, using the Mixed Edge Diamond Layering Basics Die Set. I cut a bunch of diamond shapes, then arranged them on a card base, and trimmed off all the pieces that went past the edge. After adhering them to the card base, I rolled on some Nuvo Smooth Precision Glue Pen around one of the diamond shapes, and sprinkled on some Pink Fizz glitter. I also squeezed on some Nuvo Simply White crystal drops in the corner, and Copper Penny crystal drops at some of the intersections of the diamonds. I also die cut additional layers using the Mixed Edge Rectangle Layering Basics Die and layered these all together along with the card base.<br />

<br />
I stamped out the sentiment, using my Tonic Tim Holtz Stamp Platform. I loaded up the stamp into the stamp platform, and then inked up part of the stamp with Panama Rose hybrid ink, and then Spring Heather, and then Polar Ice. I inked up just a few letters of each color, to have an effect of multiple colors for the whole stamp. Once I had the ink colors stamped, I cleaned off my stamp, inked it again with Versamark ink, and then stamped it again, over the colored ink. I sprinkled on Clear Detail embossing powder and heat set it. This made the ink colors shiny and sparkly! Then, I fussy cut the sentiment and cut a frame for it too. I layered these together, popped them up, and adhered them to the card base. I also squeezed on a few drops of White Blizzard crystal drops along the letters too.<br />

I love this big bold thanks sentiment. I definitely can use it for tons of cards and look forward to all the fun and creative things I can do with it.<br />

I whipped out a Mahalo (thank you) card and wanted it to feel Hawaiian. This is what I ended up with. Let's check it out.<br />

<br />
<br />
I started out by stamping the Hibiscus, leaves, and shells. I stamped the Hibiscus with the Carrot color from the Nuvo Sunset Serenade Hybrid Ink set. The carrot didn't quite stand out as much as I wanted, and I wanted to add some gradation to the flowers too, so I added some darker ink from my stash on the outside of the flowers and stamped right over the carrot. This worked out great! Then, I die cut the flowers, leaves, and shells. I shaped them with my flower shaping kit.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUsQxuGfnAoV9AE0p9MLmPKY2jj3VuE9Ms0P2YBQNsYRJB5YZzcc-VzBNiboEjRKXpD_Px3dvRdFRlujZoCM9yfs1ljDuC5Ym0eO5JV8hXlM4uZIIV2aL1DxbcBGl7hTJBYOrnD0eW8oTW/s1600/18-1109_CISS-Mahalo_02-Hibiscus.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUsQxuGfnAoV9AE0p9MLmPKY2jj3VuE9Ms0P2YBQNsYRJB5YZzcc-VzBNiboEjRKXpD_Px3dvRdFRlujZoCM9yfs1ljDuC5Ym0eO5JV8hXlM4uZIIV2aL1DxbcBGl7hTJBYOrnD0eW8oTW/s640/18-1109_CISS-Mahalo_02-Hibiscus.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
I spritzed the shells with some shimmer sprays I had in my stash. I spritzed them with several colors. Once I layered everything together, I squeezed on some Nuvo Buttermilk enamal dots into the centers of the flowers.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQf6_LogoB2kKn_1tOrUkwcCx8ZqjqkgUqAjM5MfNtO-HPRfIfV8XWtrqKaQITmghvWEdojt5BX1AVN-7F6Iu9QtK0PD7_U4J4dtOIGh-AIinKrJlmTRu3Rj1bRWMhz6J8Vpb4SJrgqhRz/s1600/18-1109_CISS-Mahalo_03-Shells.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQf6_LogoB2kKn_1tOrUkwcCx8ZqjqkgUqAjM5MfNtO-HPRfIfV8XWtrqKaQITmghvWEdojt5BX1AVN-7F6Iu9QtK0PD7_U4J4dtOIGh-AIinKrJlmTRu3Rj1bRWMhz6J8Vpb4SJrgqhRz/s640/18-1109_CISS-Mahalo_03-Shells.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I also die cut "mahalo" from white cardstock, using Lawn Fawn's Quinns ABCs die set. I spritzed them with a silver shimmer spray and popped them up with foam adhesive. I adhered some pearls all around the card to add some extra pizzazz.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This card was really fun. I like the shimmer and I love those hibiscus flowers! I love using flowers, and having the Heartfelt Creations dies means I can make as many as I want :)<br />

I don't even know where to start for this card ... I LOVE the new Sparkle N Sprinkle Koi Pond Beauty set, one of Sparkle N Sprinkle's November releases, and I wanted to make a card with swirling water and koi swimming in layers ... and this is what I came up with. Let's check it out!<br />

To create the card, I started prepping my materials. I prepped my watercolor cardstock with my Anti Static Bag. Then, I used the Tonic Tim Holtz Stamp Platform to stamp out the koi fish, leaves, and plants multiple times on watercolor cardstock, and Versafine Onyx Black ink. I sprinkled on Clear Detail embossing powder and heat set them. I colored them with the Nuvo Watercolor Pencils, in both the Hair & Skin Tones set and Brilliantly Vibrant set. I lightly colored the fish with the watercolor pencils, without filling in the whole area, then I used the Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss Pen to move the watercolor pencil around. This gave it some shine and gradation! Then, I fussy cut out the koi, leaves, and plants. I also cut strips of 1/8", 1/4", and 1/2" Tear-ific Tape, about 8-12" long. Then, I adhered the glitters (Ocean, Waterfall) and embossing powders (Skylight, Caribbean, Robin's Egg) to the strips. After covering one full side of each strip of Tear-ific Tape, I pulled off the release paper from the opposite side, and re-dredged the Tear-ific tape through my pile of glitter or embossing powder. Once all the strips were covered, I heat set the embossing powder strips. I also ran some blue cardstock through my Tonic Tangerine and die cut out the die shapes with Tonic's Jasmine Sunset Layering Die Collection. Here are all the parts of the card, before I assembled everything.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
As I was building the card together, I ran the Nuvo Smooth Precision Glue Pen along the outer edge of one of my die cut panels. I let the glue dry to a tacky finish, then applied the Nuvo Radiant Gold Gilding Flakes. I rubbed in the flakes into the tacky adhesive, then brushed off the remainder with the Nuvo Mini Brush. This whisks away all the un-adhered gilding flakes.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I adhered strips of the glittered and embossing powdered Tear-ific tape to the panel as well, and swirled all these colors together to make the card look like swirling water. Koi tend to swarm and they swirl all around one another trying to get in the best position. I tried to recreate that swirling frenzy! I put the fish at different levels and layers inside the swirling tear-ific tape waves.<br />

<br />
Here is another shot of one of the plants, which really shows the amazing shimmer from the Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss! This card is super sparkly in person!<br />

<br />
I also added a bit of Nuvo Smooth Precision Glue Pen in random spots on each koi fish, and after it was tacky, I adhered more Nuvo Radiant Gold Gilding Flakes. This gave the fish just a little extra pizzazz.<br />

<br />
I have seen a lot of koi ponds, and the way the fish react when they see something and they all mass around looking for handouts makes me happy! The swirling frenzy always occurs ... especially if you have some koi food in your pocket :) I can't wait to see what you create with this stamp set!<br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by. Have a <i>magical</i> day!
