Deck of Cards - Set 8

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. This is the last set.

• 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, the Mama Elephant Happy Hedgehog, the Lawn Fawn Dandy Day, the Mama Elephant Dandelion Wishes and the My Favorite Things Next to you 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 enjoyed this little series.

Hugs,

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.
