Just Saying

Hello Everyone!
Just another card share.
I cannot help make another card using this squirrel.
I made a not so typical LOVE card out of him this time, but its a love card nonetheless.

The Stamp sets I used in this card are Nuts for you, Merry Little Christmas, and Scrolling Script for the little 
hearts you see. The "Just Saying" sentiment is from the Bubble Talk set.


To begin with, I did not have any grass die-cut on my stash so I just made my own using vellum.
I cut a piece of vellum and colored it with my Papertrey ink pad Spring Moss.....yup just like what you see on the image below. I just waited for it to dry and then I started cutting the vellum but not all the way, I left
some space at the bottom to adhere a strip of cardstock.


Here's how it looks like after I cut it, then I started coloring it again this time with a darker color 
Simply Chartreuse to give it a darker unbalance color.


I then stamp the squirrel image from Nuts for you, colored him with copics and fuzzy cut him.
The heart that you see is from Studio Calico Heart and Arrows wood veneers
 I just colored it with red sharpie and then added some glossy accents then waited for it to dry.

After I stamped all my images on my card panel I then cut a strip of white cardstock and colored it 
with simply chartreuse ink pad and adhere on top of my grass vellum.


I tried to put him between the cut vellum for added interest.
So here is the final product card.
I hope you guys enjoyed!
Thank you for looking!

Thanksgiving

Hello there Everyone!
Its time for another card share, I have not done it in quite sometime.
So I made a card hoping to inspire you since Autumn is just around the corner :)
I finally got some new stamp sets from Papertrey Ink one of the set is this Nuts For You.
Do you see this cute Squirrel, isn't he sooooo...adorable?
I couldn't help but ink him up right away.
So here's what I came up with.
I stamp all my images first in a separate white cardstock, color each one with copics and then
fuzzy cut. I then arranged them on my card base before gluing and adhering each piece.


But before adhering all the pieces together, I cut a strip of Aqua Mist cardstock
  then stamp one of the image from Autumn Pattern Pieces to ground all my images.


Once I finally got all my pieces together, its time to adhere everything.

For the sentiment I used the stamp set from Basket of Blessings.
I really like this stamp set because the sentiment is so big and pretty.

I heat embossed this sentiment using gold embossing powder, I think
it gives the card a warm feel and it pulls all the pieces together.

The full image of the leaves that you see on the sides that's golden in color, this is the
ink pad from Delicata, Golden Glitz, I just love this ink its so vibrant.
Oh and that leaves is from the Autumn Acorn stamp set.


I used a black gem for his eyes....heehehe.....this squirrel is just so cute!
Oh and the basket that you see here is from the Basket of Blessings stamp set, which holds
some of the acorns and leaves :)


Here is the full look of the card.


I hope you guys enjoyed my card share.
Have a fabulous weekend!!!
