Art Impressions - Spring Colors
Well, it's week two of the Spring Colors challenge at the Art Impressions blog. I was digging through all my AI stamps and I found the Sally Swimmer set which includes the sentiment. I forgot I even had her, but she was perfect for spring colors. The papers which are also bright were from Doodlebug Design called Take Note.
Have a great Easter Holiday...
Make It Monday - Double Partial Die Cutting
It's been a while seen I done a card for the Papertrey Ink Make It Monday challenge. This week Laura shows how to make a card by double partial die cutting. For my card I pulled out the "Happy" die form PTI's Tipped Tops Dies. The background was done with an air spritzer and markers. The birthday sentiment and flowers were die cut and stamped using PTI's Bigger Blooms. The paper is from Fancy Pants Designs Park Bench series.

Stampingbella "Parker the Pig"
My card that I am posting today was made for the Stampingbella Bellarific Friday challenge. This week it's about stitches. I started out stamping & coloring The Stampingbella stamp called Parker the Pig. The papers are from the Farm House Paper Company called Fair Skies. I stitched the blue check to the ballon paper with just some very simple cross stitches using white embroidery floss. The sentiment "never say never" was part of the stamp set.

Beach Babes Thank You Card
I needed a quick thank you card for our neighbor. And since we are in Florida for the winter I thought it would be fun to do a card using "Beach Babes". This is a stamp set designed by Art Impressions for Hampton Art sold only at Michaels. The sun and sentiment are also from this set. The papers are from American Crafts called Mayberry.

Art Impressions "Vintage Vibe"
Vintage Vibe is the theme over at the Art Impressions blog this week. They have released some new vintage stamps with sentiments that are super cute. The design team made some really great cards using these new stamps - I love them all. With the theme being "vintage" the first thing I thought of was wine, so I pulled out one of the newer AI sets from Hampton Art that you can find at Michaels called Wine Diva. I also pulled out some vintage type paper from Crate Paper called Close Knit.

Stampingbella Uptown Paisley Has A Prezzie
The Stampingbella challenge this week is washi tape or ribbon. So for my card I pulled out Uptown Girl Paisley has a Prezzie. I colored her up with Copics and the stripes weren't as bad as I thought they would be, since they are pretty small. I also got carried away and added Stickles to her skirt, bows and the ruffles on her top. The sentiment was a diecut from Penny Black called Celebrations. I love these and use them alot! The paper is also one of my favorites from Prima Marketing called Doodle Deux.
