Using SU colors: Bermuda Bay, Dusty Durango, Soft Suede.

These colors for some reason reminded me of a coffee shop or a little sidewalk cafe. I needed a thank you card for a friend, I’ll be adding a coffee gift card inside. The coffee cup was paper pieced with Basic Grey Marrakech, covered with glossy accents……kind of reminds me of a ceramic coffee cup! I used my atyou spica glitter pen in the color sand at the top of the coffee cup and to make the sprinkles on top of the (white liquid applique) yummy whip cream, oh I also used the glitter pen over the sentiment.

She has challenged us and you to use flowers any where on your card and or project. Head over to the Rubbernecker blog to check out all the details.

Here is my flower sample card, I so wish you could see this one in person….”Gorgeous” if I do say so myself….LOL!!! I left off the sentiment, but I will be using this one as a thank you card! I used the Floral Basket with Bow image. Part of the bow and also the 3 peach colored flowers are popped up on white foam boosters. The peach colored flowers have art institute glitter on them in sherbet, the center of the purple flowers have angel dust art institute glitter, the leaves have the vintage glass glitter in shamrock. Lots of sparkle in real life!! The main card base was scored with my scor-pal and then sanded with the Tim Holtz sanding grip. The card base is made with the core’dinations vintage collection reminisce, which I got at the craft super show on Friday. I have wanted to try this core’dinations cardstock for a while now…..very kewl cardstock!!! The ribbon(5/8 White Faux Suede Ruffled) I got from Jody, I had the pleasure of meeting her at CHA!! I colored the ribbon with my Copic marker in BV02.

Coffee Break…..

Hello I have another circle card to share with you today for yesterdays WWC, to use circles. I guess I’m in a circle mood…..or maybe I’m just going in circles….LOL!!

I love the way this card turned out!! Love the little coffee stain/spill in the coffee break circle! The circle cut-out mat I got here, this one is a kraft color but I covered it with the basic Grey porcelain paper. For some reason this paper makes me think of coffee, coffee spills and coffee stains, of course I added some of the coffee spills on the paper with an image from Rubbernecker scraps & scuffs set #461 with Ranger Distress ink in tea dye. I also enhanced the green in the porcelain paper with more distress ink in the shabby shutters color.

Coffee Break 1-1

Here is a close up so you can see the sewing, sponging and Copic coloring, be kind about the Copic coloring I’m still learning!!

Coffee Break 1-2

SUPPLIES:

  • Paper: Prism Simply Smooth Vanilla, PTI Melon Berry, Basic Grey Porcelain
  • Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa: Distress Ink; tea dye, shabby shutters

Wacky Wednesday Challenge #21 Circles…

Happy Wacky Wednesday!! It’s that time again, for a Rubbernecker Wacky Wednesday challenge and Kittie is the Wacky Wednesday hostess for this week. She has challenged us and you to use circles any where on your card and or project. Head over to the Rubbernecker blog to check out all the details.

On my first card I feel like I cheated a little by just using half of a circle, even though there are circles in the polka dot paper. I made a half circle using some Kandi Corp. Rhinestones. I can’t take credit for this card design, I saw it some where just can’t remember where. I do know that I did change a few things…… stamp image, sentiment and I think the ribbon. The flower image was stamped twice, I cut out the whole flower and then the middle of the second flower for some depth and added some white foam boosters on the back for dimension. I colored the flower with my Copic markers.

Chrysanthemum

SUPPLIES:

  • Paper: Prism Simply Smooth White, Black, PTI Black & White Basics
  • Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
  • Accessories: RN May Arts Pink Satin Ribbon, Kandi Corp Crystal Rhinestones, White Foam Boosters
  • Copics: RV10, RV11, Rv14
  • Card Size: 5.50 x 4.25

Items available at Rubbernecker Stamp Co..

Here is the second card I made using a Spellbinders circle die to make a circle card. When making a circle card or any other shape card using Spellbinders dies make sure you leave a little of the top of the folded card below the cutting part of the die so the card will fold. I then make a cut out circle to place on top of the circle card, so you don’t see the flat edge(fold) at the top. Did that make sense? I used a ornare piercing template to make the dotted swirls with a pencil and then went over them with a Sakura black gelly roll glaze pen. The “celebrate” and “candle flames” are colored in with a Sakura orange stardust pen, lots of sparkle. I used a lemon atyou Spica pen for the middle of the candle flames. The candles are colored in with Koh-i-noor pencils and gamsol. I used a C1 Copic marker for the shadow under the candles and around the word celebrate.

Circle Candle Card

SUPPLIES:

  • Paper: Prism Simply Smooth White, Intense Orange
  • Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
  • Accessories: Spellbinders Circle Die, Ornare Piercing Template, Black Organdy Swirl Ribbon, Koh-i-noor Colored Pencils, Gamsol, Sakura Black Gelly Roll Glaze Pen, Sakura Orange Stardust Pen, Lemon Atyou Spica Pen.
  • Copics: C1
