Joy!

Happy Saturday Friends!  It's Marcy here and I wanted to share a fun holiday card I made recently.  I've had a lot of holiday events this week including our holiday luncheon at work.  I wanted to give out some handmade cards and I made a few using this adorable "Cheers Anya" from The Greeting Farm!

Here's a pic of it...

I kept my card pretty simple just coloring up cute Anya with my Copic Markers and then adding lots of Wink of Stella glitter to her dress and also some white polka dots to the trim.  To her wine glasses, I added some glossy accents and  I also scattered some colorful sequins and rhinestones onto the card base.  For the sentiment, I stamped it using some versamark ink and then took some gold embossing powder over that to heat set. It really looks so pretty against the kraft cardstock.  Oh and the fun background paper is from a collection called Santa Express by Doodlebug Designs.  Super adorable holiday papers!

Here are the Supplies Used:

Cheers Anya - The Greeting Farm

Copic Markers

Santa Express - Doodlebug Designs

Black Tuxedo - Memento

Versamark Ink - Tsukineko

Mono Multi Liquid Glue - Tombow

Have a wonderful day and don't forget to come back tomorrow for our Sensational Sunday Blog Hop!

Warm Winter Wishes

I hope you all have been having a wonderful week. Shanna here today to share a Magnolia card for you all. These images are just so fun to color and so darn cute to play with. 

Not really too much to say about this card today except I had fun trying to color the pleats in her dress. Not sure I succeeded to the point of some. I would so love to see Alyce color this image so I could get a better idea of how to color the pleats! 

I colored the image with copics YAY! And I remembered to distress everything!

I also finished the card off with a sentiment from a new release set from SugarPea Designs!

Items Used:

Magnolia Stamp - Waiting For Christmas Collection -  (Coming Soon)

SugarPea Designs - Sweet Treats Christmas (Coming Soon)

My Mind's Eye - Joyous

Copics

Copic Paper

Memento Tuxedo Black

Wild Orchid Crafts Flowers

Distress Ink - Vintage Photo

Singing Loud

Hi Friends and Stampers,

It's a Holly-Day Monday and my turn to show you some inspiration.   Today I made six tags, lol, once I got started on one, I had to make the set.

CC Design - Singing Loud

MFT Die-namics - Mini Doily Circles

MFT Die-Namics Blueprints 6

Lawn Fawn - Snow Day 6X6 paper pad

Copic Markers

X-Press It Paper

Tim Holtz - old paper

Tim Holtz - Blending Tool

Memento Black Ink

Best Glue Ever

I also added some glossy accents to the noses. I thought about a red nose, but there is nothing like a black shiny nose, lol.   I used the Blueprints 6 tags die to cut them out with the Snowy Day music paper and sponged with old paper ink using my distressed blending tool.  I then used the scallop edged circle to cut out with the red Snowy Day paper.  I used the mini doily's to cut out the white.  I stamped my Reindeer on X-Press It paper six times and colored them first with E23, E25, E27 and then the antlers with E41, E42, E43, then I fussy cut them all out and layered up.  I used a couple punches I had on hand to make the tag tops in green but later noticed this was included in the Die-namics Blueprints Tag Builder set, lol.  That would have been helpful to know, lol.  

I hope you are having a great season!  Don't forget to stop by the New Items in the store and check out what you want to get in the mail for your own Holly-Day!  There is also a few hours left to get into our current challenge!  

Thanks for Looking and checking in on us,

Happy Birthday!

Hello Friends and Happy Saturday!  It's Marcy here to share some inspiration for today.  I hope everyone has had a great week.  I still can't believe we're already into December, can you?!! Well along with Christmas cards, I do have quite a lot of birthdays in the next few months which I need to make cards for.  So for today, I decided to make a birthday card.

And here it is...

So this is my first time coloring up a Penny Black image and I had so much fun.  The stamp set I used is called Sweet Thing.  I colored up this cute gal with my copic markers and then added some white gel pen to the sprinkles on her cupcake as well as some Wink of Stella to the frosting and parts of her outfit.  I cut her out using some stitched circles and added some sequins for some extra sparkle.  The fun papers I used are from an American Crafts collection called "Lucky Charm".  

Here are the Supplies Used:

Sweet Thing - Penny Black

Copic Markers

Lucky Charm - American Crafts

Sentiment (Happy Birthday) - Doodlebug Designs

Black Tuxedo - Memento

Mono Multi Liquid Glue - Tombow

Make sure to stop by the Loves Rubberstamps store to see all of the adorable Penny Black collections.  They are all so adorable!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs,

Marcy
