I have a cute little Thanksgiving card to share with you today, there are a few details I would like to share about this card. I used this tool to do the faux stitching on both pieces of DP & the tag banner all around the edges. I wish you could see it better it really adds some nice texture to the card. I used the Adirondack alcohol inks in caramel & ginger and also Adirondack copper mixatives to color the medallion brad, very cool in person!! The turkey and the girl’s shoes were stamped twice, cut out and then popped up with foam mounting tape. I got the idea for the tag banner from Anna Wight aka sweetmissdaisy!!

I want to mention that Rubbernecker Stamp Co.. has the Memento Ink Pads in all the wonderful colors they come in, these are fabulous inks and they are awesome with Copic markers!!

    Here is a card I made for the sketch challenge(SC199) over on Splitcoast that I never got a chance to upload. I used some new DP (Scenic Route; Roxbury) new to me anyways…that I got a few weeks ago. I paper pieced the tree image(Rubbernecker), with a piece of the DP. I masked the tree with eclipse tape and airbrushed (Copic B00 Frost Blue) the blue sky around the tree. Added the white puffy paint for my snow. The chipboard star has stickles glitter glue on it! The rest is pretty much self-explanatory.

    Faux Dove……

    Hello everyone, life has been very crazy busy for me! Today I finally got some time to get in my studio and play…woohoo! I went and checked out the featured stamper challenge over on Splitcoast and Becca Stamps is the featured stamper for this week, her blog is called Amazing Paper Grace and what an amazing gallery she has!!! Here is the card she made that inspired me to make this one…..

    Faux Dove

    The bird image is actually a humming bird image from Rubbernecker but I wanted a dove so I’m calling this bird a Dove….lol!

    The base of this is shimmer white cardstock and then SU Night of Navy cardstock. The main image panel is PTI linen vellum cardstock, which I used a rub-on up in the corner from K&Company, also the pearls. The dove is stamped on shimmer white cardstock and cut out, popped up on foam tape. I used a blue & orange Copic marker on the dove. The sentiment is a circle sticker from Design Originals, the scallop circle is punched with the yellow marvy punch, from PTI linen vellum. Used my Martha Stewart Doily Lace Edge punch and some white shimmer grosgrain ribbon at the bottom. The leaf the dove is holding is a punch.

    Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a fabulous day!!
