Happy BAAAday to Ewe!! Featuring Art Impressions

Hello AI Fans!!

I've got a tag for you today that I made for the Tag You're It Challenge going on right now on the Art Impressions blog! I love making tags, and they elevate a package or gift bag to the absolute next level, don't you think? If you know me, you know how much I love whimsical, bright, fun projects, so that's usually the way I lean when I create. For this tag, I used 5132 Tag Stitched Dies (I cut three of them and glued them together so the tag would be nice and sturdy), 5398 Sheep Set, 5346 Birdhouse Cubbies (for the bird flying to the right), 5100 Woodland Tree Cubbies (for the bird flying to the left), and 4967 WC Fence Dies. The images are stamped onto Cryogen paper and then colored with Copic markers (the markers I used are listed below).  I inked the background with distress inks, added a sun with a few clouds and called her done! 

 

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

Art Impressions new Front Porch Patriotic Set

 Hello AI Fans!

Today I'm featuring #5494 Front Porch Patriotic Set from Art Impressions! The Front Porch Line of stamp sets are really awesome for lots of occasions! How fun would it be to create party invitations for the 4th of July with this set?! Just remember that you also need to purchase #5512 Front Porch Door Set if you don't already have it! I stamped all the images onto Cryogen white paper and colored them with Copic markers. The set comes with all the dies needed to cut out the images to decorate your front door! So fun!! I love the paper I used as it makes the sky seem like it's totally lit up with fireworks behind the house! I apologize for all the coloring flubs as I found out I was pretty much blind with cataracts when I created this card. I'm free of them now and I'm able to see all the mistakes. OUCH! LOL! I will tell you though, that it's like going from a TV from the 1960's to a 4K high def screen with my vision! I can't stop saying WOW! :) 

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

Peek a Boo pop up card featuring Art Impressions

 Hello AI Fans!!

Have you created your card or project for the Green Galore Challenge?  Today, I'm showing you the card I made using #5283 Frog Set from the Funny Farm line at Art Impressions.  This Frog Set is so much fun to play with! I got a  peek a boo pop up die set in January, and I've been wanting to use it. I think interactive cards are my favorite because they make a handmade card so fun! I've always leaned toward bright colors and fun or funny cards. They just make my heart smile!! So that's what I set out to do. There is the cutest leaping frog in this set and I knew exactly how I wanted to use him.  Take a peek at this video and make sure to listen with sound! LOL!  We definitely have a photo bomber on our hands!! heehee 

These cards are really pretty easy to make and there will be a link to the peek a boo pop up die in the LinkDeli list below. So for my card, I just cut a piece of blue and a piece of green cardstock and then used a hillside die to cute the green piece.  I stamped the Frog Set with Memento ink onto Cryogen White paper and colored them with Copic markers and then fussy cut them out. and glued the party of three to the front of the card. I then cut serveral fence pieces out of white paper and glued them along the top of the green cardstock on the card front. To finish it up, I cut the sun and clouds, and used some images from #5561 Birds and Bugs Set to finish it off. This was s super fun card to make and I really hope the recipient enjoys it as much as I do! 

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

Live life in full bloom featuring Art Impressions Easter Chicks Set

 Hello AI Fans!!

Today I'm showing you the card I created with the Bloom Where you are Planted challenge going on right now. I love this challenge as it's reminding me that spring is getting closer every single day! YAY!! So for this card, I used #5401 Easter Chicks Set which I am so in love with! These are the cutest chicks EVER!! And this set comes with the most adorable hats, bunny ears, and ribbons you can put on their heads to dress them up for Easter or any occasion! Or you can just leave them plain. It's completely your choice!! I also used #5588 Journal Oval Frames Die Set for the sentiment banner and those cute little flowers on the front of the platform. The cute sentiment was stamped using the brand new #5734 Friend Sentiment Set.  And then in the back, I used #4967 WC Fence Dies. I think that fence is so adorable in front of the trees. The trees, cloud, and grass dies are from my stash.   I stamped the images onto Cryogen white paper using my Misti stamp platform and then cut them out using the dies which are included in the set. I don't know about you, but I really love the fact that a lot of Art Impressions Sets include the dies. It makes it soooo much easier than having to fussy cut! 

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