Fluffy Butt Hut featuring Art Impressions Hen House Cubbies

 Hello AI Fans!!

So the new challenge that started Thursday is called Farm Fresh! How fun is that?! So for my card, I used 5396 Hen House Cubbies for this. The Cubbies are such an awesome line of stamps and dies! I stamped all the images onto a Copic friendly paper with Memento Tuxedo black ink and then colored them with Copic markers which are listed below. For the card base I used 5939 Fairy Garden PP.  The sentiment is from AiCS40 Spring Chicken Set. 

Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit today! Until next time - stay crafty!!

Happy Birthday Christopher featuring InstaGator Whimsy Stamps

 Hello!

I don't how many of you love Whimsy Stamps, but the Dustin Pike InstaGator Clear Stamp set (and ALL of his stamp sets) are so much fun and are perfect for slimline cards! I made this cute one for my grandson Christoper's birthday and I love how it turned out! The Oh Snap sentiment comes with the set of stamps, and then I created the "did someone say cake??!!" on my computer and printed it out. I just thought it was perfect for the looks on these gators faces!! 

Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit today and until next time - stay crafty!!

Sending love featuring Art Impressions

 Hello AI Fans! 

My card today is showing you how I used the Sending Love Cubbies, and I really love how this one turned out. I don't know how many of you are old enough to remember there used to be mail boxes all over town. It's one of those things that just slowly disappear, kind of like telephone booths. LOL! I'm really dating myself! Anyway, I wanted to show this fun mailbox just absolutely overflowing with joy for the birthday recipient! So I just stamped, colored, and die cut a whole bunch of the accessory stamps that come in this set. I also added a few little birds from the Birdhouse Cubbies Set that are delivering more goodies. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Until next time - stay crafty!

Happy Birthday Bonnie Krebs, owner and artist of Art Impressions Stamps!!

 Hello AI Fans!!

Today is our Queen Bee Bonnie's Birthday!! I know how much she is loved and cherished by all, so I feel VERY fortunate that it's my day to post. Bonnie, I know I speak for all when I tell you that we wish you the very best Birthday and hope your day is filled with love and laughter with friends and family! Thank you so much for enriching all of our lives and blessing us with your amazing talents! God bless you and we love you!!

The card I'm showing you today is one I made for Bonnie (I hope she's received it by now) and for the current challenge we've got going on right here on the AI blog! I used the fabulous #5042 Christmas Bee Set, but I used some Post It Tape to mask out her stocking cap and tried my best to turn it into a Birthday hat. You can see I'm definitely not an artist! LOL!  I also cut my little bee away from the word merry and the bow so I could use it by itself. This helps extend the uses of your stamps because you can always stamp them together again if you want! I love that there's so many stamps in this set you can use for occasions other than Christmas! I loved the little quote I added on the bottom right side of the card. It was in the paper I used and thought it was so fitting for Bonnie!  I stamped my images onto Cryogen white paper with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, and then colored them with Copic markers which are listed below. 

 

And this is the inside of the card. 

Thank you so very much for stopping by today, and please be sure to wish Bonnie a very Happy Birthday today! Until next time - stay crafty!

I've got a fun card to show you today that I made for my Bestie for her Birthday last year. I'm going to try and be better at posting all my cards here on my blog. :)  For this card, I used one of CC Designs stamp sets Rockabilly Gals. So fun! They're stamped onto Cryogen White paper and then colored with Copic markers. I placed them on a slimline card with a Whimsy Die Cut matted with some old paper from my stash. Added a bow and some pearl drops and let the girls shine like they should.

You light up the room featuring Art Impressions

 Hello AI Fans!

Today I'm showing you a card I made that fits the Dynamic Duo challenge that is going on right now over on the Art Impressions Blog! Have you entered yet? You still have time!  You just need to use two different stamp sets to create your card or project. For my card, I used #4371 Fire Out Set. I have always loved this set and have used her a number of times for some fun birthday cards. I also used #5255 Birthday Cake Set, and #5115 Birthday Laugh Lines for the sentiment. I stamped them onto Cryogen white paper and colored them with Copic markers. I kept the card super simple by just fussy cutting them out and adding a frame of some fun polka dot paper. 

Thanks for stopping by to visit today and hope you get to have a crafty day!

Happy Birthday Cindy

Hello and happy Saturday!  I made this card for my daughter Cindy for her birthday last week. I didn't want to post it before then just in case she happened to take a peek.  Which, by the way, is highly unlikely since she's such a busy mom! LOL!  I used one my CC Designs digital images and just love these characters! I printed her onto some cryogen white paper and colored her with Copic markers. 

 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit today and hope you have an amazing weekend!

Oopsie Daisy featuring Art Impressions

 Hello AI Fans!! 

I love this Daisies set that so much!!!!  This card was made for my Mother-in-law's birthday in September. I just think this set is perfect for so many different occasions! I stamped it onto Cryogen white paper and then colored with copic markers listed below. 

These are such a quick and easy stamp to color!!! 

I used another sentiment and simple stamp on the inside as well! Do you decorate the inside of your cards or leave them blank?

Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit today and until next time, stay safe, stay healthy, and stay crafty!!!

hugs!!
