Deck of Cards - Set 7

Hi there,

over the next few weeks I would like to show you a project that I created for Mennys Bastelshop together with my so very talented daughter Emily. It was a gift for my son - a deck of cards. I used the Mama Elephant Artist Trading Card die set on each of them combined with different stamp sets from Mama Elephant, My Favorite Things and Lawn Fawn. Every week I will show you four cards. Let's continue.

• cut out the Mama Elephant Artist Trading Cards from smooth white cardstock
• add color with Distress Oxide Inks
• stamp images from the Mama Elephant Magical Wizards and the Lawn Fawn Silly Goose sets
• color the images with Ohuhu Markers, add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and highlights with a white gel pen
• assemble the cards

I hope you will join me again next week for the final set of cards.

Hugs,

Birthday Cupcake

Hi there,

this is just a quick reminder of this month's Anything Goes Challenge over on the STAMPlorations Blog:

• cut out the CUTplorations ATC/Gift Card Envelope from patterned paper
• build the CUTplorations Cupcake Builder #2 from colored cardstock and add extra shading with Distress Inks
• stamp the sentiment from the STAMPlorations Kathryn's Big Wishes set with Versamark onto a banner cut from turquoise cardstock and heat-emboss it with WOW! Bright White Super Fine embossing powder 
• add some heart-shaped sequins as final embellishments

I hope you got inspired.

Hugs,
