WANTED: For A Little Too Much Fun

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a couple of cards I've had finished for a bit but not able to upload thanks to my migraine, and fibromyalgia, flare using images from Conjurer of Dreams.

 

First up is a card made using the Wanted Poster along with the Leprechaun Mugshots.  I just love the COD mugshot sets.  What a great way to have some snarky fun.  After combining the image sets, I printed it out onto Hammermill white card stock before coloring using my Ohuhu markers.  Once the coloring was finished, I layered the main image, distressed using a distressing tool, then stippled some Tim Holtz walnut stain distress ink using a blender brush.  After adding some vintage brads, I highlighted the board saying using a white gel pen then added some bling.  As an afterthought, I "wrote" over the WANTED using my Ohuhu Metallic Glitter markers.  I'm really pleased with how this turned out.

Next up, is another WANTED "poster" using COD's Easter Bunny Mugshots and the same Wanted image.  Again I colored the mugshot using my Ohuhu© markers before stippling more walnut stain distress ink around it before adding it to a card covered with Easter Morning designer paper. The "charges" are  highlighted using a white gel pen before adding some organdy ribbon and flat backed MFT acrylic dots I've had for years and not used to finish it off.  I'm really happy how this one turned out.

Happy St. Patty's Day

 

Hello and welcome.  Quick post today since I'm still dealing with a nasty migraine, and fibromyalgia, flare.  I'd like to share a couple of quick cards I finished several days ago, but couldn't post because of pain.   I made them both using images from Conjurer of Dreams using the following sets: Grumpy Leprechauns, green silks.  I kept them both pretty simple and added only ribbon scraps and bling to finish them off.

Hello and welcome.  Today begins a new challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies and this week we're being sponsored by Polkadoodles.  My card this week uses their cute little Hello Spring digital set.  Once I had it printed onto Neenah white card stock, I colored it using my Ohuhu markers before layering and adhering to my card base.  I then lightly blended some stormy sky distress ink before adding some faux sewing stitches.  I then added some punched black/yellow flowers with bling centers to finish it off.

Today begins a new challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies and this week we're sponsored by Lawn Fawn.  I would like to take a moment to thank them for sponsoring us this week.  My project this week uses an up-cycled cardboard tab from an Amazon box along with the Birthday Before N Afters stamp set I've had for a while just hadn't used yet.

 

I started out by stamping my images (inside and out) in memento tuxedo black ink onto scrap white card stock before coloring it using my Ohuhu markers.  Taking some scrap designer paper, I covered the "tag" before adding my colored images.  Taking some star dust stickles, I highlighted parts of the outside image before adding velcro to the inside so the tag would stay shut.

Similar But Different

 

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a couple of cards I made a week ago, just hadn't uploaded yet.  I've been dealing with a nasty migraine for a while now, and nothing seems to be helping; including coloring to try and focus on something other than my migraine.  

 

After stamping both sets of images from the Little Things and Gopher It stamp sets from Gerda Steiner Designs.  Once I had stamped all of the images, I colored them using my Ohuhu before lightly blending some Tim Holtz stormy sky distress ink.  Taking my retired Stampin Up Watercolor Mini's, I created the "grass" by stamping the fern repeatedly in the following distress inks: mowed lawn, crushed olive, forest moss before lightly stippling some walnut stain on some primas I've had for years to darken them up.  I dug through my stash of designer paper scraps and found this long retired GinaK Great Outdoors digital paper and added that to my card bases.  After die cutting some scrap card stock, I made my own floral spray before adding the dyed flowers.  Some bling, faux sewing, faux brads, 3D glaze pen and stardust stickles finish them off.  I'm pretty happy with how these turned out.  Close up's below:

A Little Bit Of Grumpy Valentine Love And A Castle

 

 

Hello and welcome. Today I have a couple of projects to share with you using the free ATC sheet from Conjurer of Dreams along with the following COD sets: Valentine Book Covers, Red Silk, Grumpy Seniors Valentine Kit and Victorian Valentines (retired).  I've had them finished over a week now, but have been dealing with a nasty migraine.

 

I started out by breaking apart the ATC sheet using Photoshop©, along with my digital layers, before printing them out and adhering to scrap card stock.  Once all of my layering was was finished, I die several small flowers, and stems, from scrap card stock before "shaping" them using my hands and adhering using glossy accents.  The final touches were some red bling and flat backed pearls.  I'm pretty pleased with how these turned out.

I started out by combining the Gecko Galz fantasy image with the following Conjurer of Dreams sets: Warrior Women (retired), Castles With Dragon Clipart (retired), Red Silk, Black Silk and Photo Corners using Photoshop© before printing it out, layering and adding black brads.  My card base is dry embossed using an old Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder I ran through my Big Shot©.  After adding my layered image panel, I added some red cord along the side and several small gems.

Gina K Designs

 

Hello and welcome.  Today begins a new challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies and this week we're sponsored by GinaK Designs.  I would like to take a moment to thank Gina for sponsoring this week's challenge.  My card this week features a retired set of Gina's called Birthday Hoot.  I bought it last year and hadn't used it yet.  I absolutely love it since the set makes the cutest cards and not just for birthday's.  It can be used for anniversaries, just because (don't ink the party hat), etc.

 

I started out by stamping the owl/balloons in memento tuxedo black ink on to copic© white card stock before coloring using my Ohuhu markers before drawing some tree branches then coloring.  Once my coloring was finished, I dusted off my dusty Stampin Up Watercolor Minis stamp set and created the "leaves" using various colors of Stampin Up ink then layering and adding some faux brads.  Taking the birthday greeting from my retired Sincere Salutations set, I stamped the greeting before stamping the inside "I hope your birthday is a hoot".  I then adhered my layered image panel to a dry embossed card before adding googlie eyes and some copper bling.  As an afterthought, I lightly stippled some Tim Holtz stormy sky distress ink to help fill in the sky.  I'm pretty pleased with how this turned out.
