Bestie Girl with Flowers Card

Hello Besties! Today I want to share with you my Design Team Project for the Color It, Create It, Show it Off Challenge Blog. For my project I created this Bestie Girl with Flowers Card.

For my card I used a My Bestie Digital Stamp by Sherri Baldy called Image 074 that you can find here:  http://www.mybestiesshop.com/store/p3345/Sherri_Baldy__NEW_Bestie_img074_Digi_Stamp.html

You can also find the Color It, Create It, Show It Off Challenge Blog here:  http://coloritcreateitshowitoff.blogspot.com/2016/06/my-besties-color-it-create-it-show-it.html. This month's challenge is anything goes.

To create my card first I cut the card base and mats using the Picture Frame Dies from Craftin Desert Diva's. I then printed out the My Bestie Digital Stamp onto plain white 110 lb. card stock. Next I colored the image in with Copics, and then layered Prismacolor Premier Pencils over the top for my highlights and shadows. Once I finished coloring in this sweet image, I then fussy cut her out and inked all of the edges with Momento Dye Ink. To finish I attached all of the layers to my card base, and then added rhinestones and flowers for some extra embellishment.

 I hope that you enjoy my card and are inspired to enter your own creations into our Challenge for your chance to win some Amazing Bestie prizes. Thank you so much for stopping by.

To make my card first I uploaded the Spaceship Claw Machine Card Base SVG into Cricut Design Space. I also uploaded the SVG outline for the Adventure Awaits stamp set. Next I selected only the outline for the alien stamp and duplicated it to have 6 copies. I then cut out all of the pattern pieces and stamp outlines with my Explore in plain card stock. I then inked and chalked all of the paper edges to add dimension and shape. Next I assembled all of the pieces for the Spaceship card. 

I then stamped the Alien from the Adventure Awaits stamp set onto each cut SVG stamp outline. After that I colored all of the images in with Copics. Next I attached all of the little aliens to my card base with glue dots. I then cut the banner with the new Flag Banner Dies from plain card stock. After that I stamped the sentiment from the Adventure Awaits stamps with watermark ink and then used black glitter embossing powder and my heat gun to emboss the sentiment. To finish I added some of the Skyfall Sequins for some extra sparkle and embellishment. I hope that you enjoy my project and have fun using the free SVG. I thought it would be so much fun, and go perfectly with the new stamps!

Wishing You a Day that Sparkles Card

Hello Everyone! This week we have our Sneak Peeks going on over at Craftin Desert Diva's for our May Stamp Release. Today I am showcasing... the new Build a Scene 2, 5x7 stamp set that I designed exclusively for CDD.
For my project I created this Wishing You a Day that Sparkles Card

For my Card I used the following CDD goodies:

The New Build a Scene 2 stamp set
The New Flag Banner Dies
The New Skyfall Sequins
Picture Frame Dies:   http://craftindesertdivas.com/picture-frame-die/
Flowers in Bloom Stamps:   http://craftindesertdivas.com/flowers-in-bloom/
And the Magical Wishes stamp set:  http://craftindesertdivas.com/magical-wishes/

To create my card first I cut the largest of the picture frame dies from plain white 110 lb. card stock. I then created my scene by masking out the different layers to add the pond, waterfall flowers, and the firefly. Once I had my scene stamped out I then colored the entire scene with Copic markers. For the water I stamped the pond a second time onto thin rice paper and then used Artist Grade Lukas Watercolors to paint the water using the wet into wet painting technique. Once the watercolor dried, I then fussy cut the pond out and attached it to the pond section on my main card.

Next I stamped the water lily from the Flowers in Bloom set and colored it in with Copics. I then fussy cut it out, and then attached it to the card base with foam tape for some added dimension. After that I cut out the banner with the new Flag Banner Dies, and stamped the sentiment from the Magical Wishes stamp set. To finish I added some of the new Skyfall Sequins for some extra sparkle and embellsihment.

All of the new stamps go on sale this Friday. Also make sure you join us for our Blog Hop going on this Friday and Sat. for some Amazing Projects and Inspiration using all of the new stamps. Thank you for stopping by and have a wonderful day!
