kiss kiss panda

I made a few little cards for the kids. I ink blended the backgrounds using a stecil. Then I stamped pandas and die cut the pandas using the matching die cut and adhered them on the cards. The pandas were from an old stamp set from Mama elephant Pandamonium. I think they are cute and kids loved the cards!



 Here are some close ups.

Sweet Yellow Flowers

The flowers from Altenew's Dearest Friend Stamp Set were so sweet and the color yellow made the flowers even sweeter! I usually wouldn't use yellow as the main color for my card, but I had to say that the color yellow really is a fresh, lovely color for the flowers.








I decided to use the smaller flower arrangement from the stamp set. But before I stamped the flowers, I first glued a 4.25"x5.5" white cardstock on the front of the yellow card base. After that, I die cut a window using the matching die cut on the card front, and then using the window as a guide to stamp the flowers on the inside of the card. The flowers were colored using colored pencils and the sentiment on the card front was from the same set.




When you opened up the card, you can see the flowers on the inside.







Yellow Flower Sympathy

I made a sympathy card for a friend. 

I heat embossed the big flower from Altenew's Inked Flora Stamp Set with white embossing powder, then painted the flower yellow and the background gray. The sentiment was heat embossed with gold embossing powder.




Here is a close up.


I am playing along the Altenew February Inspiration Challenge.

Purple Love

Happy Valentine's Day!!

I finally had a chance to use the newly brought love die cut to make a card for my dear friend. I first masked an area on my card front and then ink blended a background using a stencil, I then added the greeting on the middle of the ink blended area.



Here is a close up. 'Love' was die cut three times and stacked together. This is a quick and easy card to make.
