With Love - Hi Honey - A5 Stamp Set - New Release with Lili of the Valley (LOTV)

Hello everyone wishing you all a lovely Sunday....I hope the weekend has been fun.

I'm here today with another cute card for Lili of the Valley (LOTV) using stamps  from the new A5 Polymer stamp sets Hi Honey available in the Etsy shop 

My absolute favourite childhood bear was of course Winnie the Pooh so I decided to create a card based around Pooh and his absolute love of honey and of course those important little bees. 

I stamped several images from the set along with some pots of honey and coloured these with Promarkers to resemble Pooh bear fussy cutting them out.

I chose a patterned paper from the Craft Consortium collection Cottage Garden for the background and then from a panel of yellow card die cut hexagonal apertures before adhering these to an A7 or 5" x 7" card base....I wanted it to look like the bees were busy the the hive making their honey. 

Next I die cut the letters for Hi Honey and adhered these to the card using foam tape.

Finally the little bears and the bee were added around the honeycomb.

The sweet little With Love sentiment is from the Flower Pockets set of polymer stamps

Finishing touches were some gold confetti around the design, clear sparkle to th bees wings and glossy accents to the bears nose.

I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Lili of the Valley (LOTV)

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !

Digi Choosday - Noodle Panda Card with Leaves - Party Like a Panda - with Polkadoodles

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday... I hope that you are having a good week....

It's that time of the week to share some more inspiration for our current 'Anything Goes' challenge over on the Polkadoodles Digi Choosday Blog so I hope you are going to join in and don't forget the amazing Digi Choosday discount off all crafty printable downloads!  

Our challenges our now 4 weekly so there's loads of time for you to join in and more chances to win too!

The theme set for the DT this week is to create a card with a Panda or a Bear and include leaves 

I decided to create a square 6" x 6" pop up frame card today and use my favourite Noodle Panda collection

I created the pop up frame for my base card from dark green card stock and cut a circular aperture in the centre of this. Next I layered a peice of leafy green paper over the pop up panel cutting a slightly larger circular aperture in the centre to green a border of dark green card around it.

Before adhering the pop up frame to the card blank I added a different leafy paper into the centre of the panel - this would show through the aperture.

Next I resized the Noodle image image in my graphics software before printing out, colouring with promarkers and fussy cutting out.  The cut out image was then adhered behind the aperture.

I printed out two sentiments from the Noodle collection and foiled these before adding to the card using foam tape.

I used a couple of dies to cut out leaves from green card adding distress ink to the edges for shading and colour and then added these to the design, tucking them behind the sentiments.

To finish off my project I added some pale green iridescent sequins around the design and some white gel pen highlights on the image.

 

I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Polkadoodles.

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !

A Passion for Markers Blog Spot Challenge #782 - Anything but birthday - Sponsored by Uniko Stamps

Hello and a happy Tuesday to you all ! I hope that your week has started well.

Today I'm here to let you know that a new challenge has started over on the Passion for Markers Blog challenge.

This weeks challenge is being sponsored by Uniko Stamps and our theme of 'Anything but birthday' this week was chosen for team 2 by Natalie. 

I chose to use a really sweet image by Polkadoodles from the Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep collection.

I've created a DL card for today so resized the sweet chick image to suit my card and added a couple of sentiments to the main panel before printing out.  I also printed out the chick image a second time to decoupage. The images were coloured with Promarkers and then I fussy cut out the top of the egg, beak and bows.  

The fabulous sentiments are from Polkadoodles from the Tons of Love collection 

I created a simple background with stencils and distress inks and then foiled the sentiments for special shine. 

The decoupage elements were added to the main image using foam tape for dimension.

To finish off the card I added white highlights around the design and glossy accents to the flower centre.

I really hope that you have enjoyed my card today and will drop by again to see my next project and don't forget to join in with the challenge over on the Passion for Markers blog

The piece of card  was 6 1/2" x 6" and then I used a cloud edge die to cut the top of the panel off.  Next I have used distress inks to create clouds and the hills at the bottom before scoring 1" on either side of the panel.  I also cut two 1" x 6 1/2" bridge pieces and adhered them into the card base.

I attached some green die cut grass to the bottom of the panel, a small die cut sunshine and then the coloured mushrooms were then attached to the different layers of the card to create the scene.

Finishing touches were white gelly roll pen highlights and glossy accents to the mushrooms and some gold confetti around the design.

The theme set for the DT this week is to create an Easter Slider card using - You know these are my favourite card styles at the moment I'm sure.

I decided to create a larger A7 5" x 7" card today, creating the card base from a textured yellow card stock.

I chose a couple of the pretty papers from the Spring into Easter collection to layer onto the card base.

Next I resized the cute chick image in my graphics software before printing out, colouring with promarkers and fussy cutting out.

The main image was adhered to the bottom of the pop up panel of the slider mechanism.

Next I die cut the letters to spell Easter from the collection and adhered these flat to the inside of the slider - don't forget anything added here needs to be completely flat or the mechanism will not work properly.

I added a little circle of card to the top of the sliding panel to allow it to be pulled by the recipient.

To finish off my project I added some super sparkly gold confetti around the design and some white gel pen highlights on the image.
