Happy Birthday!

 Hello!  

Today I’m on The Greeting Farm blog sharing a new birthday card using the adorable Snapshot Anya and the sentiment is from Miss Anya Birthday.  I just love her!!  



 I started by cutting the outline frame in black cardstock.  For the background I used Distress ink Oxides and blended the colors with water.  Once dried I used a circle background stamp and heat embossed in black.   



The images were all colored with Copic markers and die cut with my Scan & Cut, they were all added to the background with foam adhesive.  The sentiment was stamped in black and die cut with a label die.  I added a couple of enamel hearts to finish it. 


Thanks for stopping by!! 
XOXO

Cozy Up With a Good Book

 Hello TGF friends! 

I'm on TGF blog today sharing a CAS card using the adorable BOOK LOVER set.  



For the green background I used a panel I did in the past using Distress Ink Oxide and a leaf stencil with distress paste.   I cut the panel with a round stitched die.  I also die cut the stitched rounded corner panel from white cardstock which I stamped the sentiment in the bottom corner. 



I colored the images with Copic marker and die cut them with my Scan & Cut.  I added all the elements with foam adhesive.  

I finished the card by adding enamel dots in the corners. I love all the white that is left around the image. 



Thansk for stopping by!!
