CAS Valentine Cards feat HRB

Hello everyone today I want to share two very quick and simple cards featuring Aver Elle stamps & dies now being sold at
http://etsy.com/shop/hotrodsboutique
For the first card I challenged myself to make a card in 5 minutes and actually put a kitchen timer on & everything LOL I am shocked that I was able to do it
Its an A2 card on PTI "Scarlet Jewel" cardstock
 I used Avery Elle "Lots of Love"  stamping the hearts from the set in an ombre look using MementoLuxe ink in " Rhubarb Stalk", "Love Letter" & "Angel Pink". I stamped my sentiment from "Tuxedo Black". Lastly I just added a few flat red sequins.

For my second card its also A2 on PTI "Autumn Rose" cardstock.

 I made a background using stamps from Avery Elle "Lots of Love" & "Simply Said Love" sentiments and hearts from "Simply Tags Christmas" stamping the sentiments in PTI "Autmn Rose" & the hearts in PTI "Pure Poppy" I put double sided adhesive from Sizzix onto white cardstock & die cut the Avery Elle "Love" die removed the adhesive backing and used Ranger Dry fine Stickles in "Fruit Punch" I love how shimmery it is. Lastly I added 2 die cuts a banner & a XOXO circle from Teresa Collins "You are My Happy" ephemera pack.
Inside I just stamped my sentiment from Lots of Love in Pure Poppy & the hearts in Autmn Rose.

2 quick and simple cards that are flat enough to easily mail but are still pretty. I had fun challenging myself to do quick clean cards.
Thanks for stopping by XOXO

CAS Paper Smooches Card

He everyone today I have a clean & simple birthday card using all Paper Smooches stamps. They have such great versatile stamps that make it so easy to put together a great card easily & quickly.

My card is an A2 card with a card base from PTI "Spring Rain".

 I used the fishes from PS "Birthday Buddies" & stamped them in Hero Arts "Soft Granite" shadow ink to create a background. I stamped my cat from PS"Nine Lives" onto white cardstock with Memento "Tuxedo Black" ink and copic colored it (colors listed at bottom of this post). I fussy cut it and put it on foam. For the shadow under the cat I used PS "Shadows" in Hero Arts "Charcoal" shadow ink. I stamped the speech bubble also from the PS "Shadows" set in Hero Arts "Soft Cantaloupe" shadow ink cut it out and went around it with a black Memento marker to give it a solid outline. Lastly I stamped my sentiment from PS "Chubby Chums" in Versafine "Onyx Black" ink.
I was happy to be able to use 4 different Paper Smooches sets for a fairly simple card.


My Copic Colors:
I used Copic Markers YR 61,65,68 / E04/ RV32 & Glossy Accents & white Gel pen on the nose.

I hope you like todays card XOXO

Talula Girls Guest DT Project

Hey Everyone so I missed doin a post yesterday but I'm doing better at posting more often right? LOL Fr todays post I was asked to be the January Guest Designer for Talula Girls Digi images. I chose the image called "Lovie Dreams" for my first project and decided to do an altered notebook to change it up a bit. This image would be great for a Valentines project, mixed media, art journals and so much more.

I used a notebook from Michaels $1.00 bin from last year. Put some 2 inch wide rainbow striped washi on the bindingthen covered front & back with Prima "Fairy Belle" paper. The Copic colors used on the image will be listed at the bottom of this post

 I wrapped some red lace around front & back then added gold mesh bling from Craft Supplies 1. Tucked under the mesh bling is a metal heart from my stash with a Recollections bow & a Teresa Collins You are my Happy Chipboard sticker that says xoxo witha rainbow candy dot on top of it. On the top left I used flowers from Recollections & CraftSupplies1 and a resin butterfly from my stash. In the two corners I added metal corners and in bottom left a crochet flower in mint green and lavender paper rose both from Recollections Lastly I added some pearl & rhinestone hearts from my stash & a resin bow to my image. You cant see it too much but I added fun paper clips and a barrette clip inside the pages.
 On the back I did more of the Prima paper & red lace. I used metal XO's and a double heart from Studio G. To spell out Irish I used thickers in the "Eric" font. Lastly I did a row of Recollections flat flowers in greens, purples & white.


Heres a list of the copic colors I used
Digi image "Lovie Dreams" printed on Crafters Companion Smooth cardstock
Copic Colors:
Skin- E000,00,21,11/R20,30 
Hair- R24,29,39/ YR15,16,18/ Y11,13,18/ G03,05,09/ B24,26,28/ V09

Hot Rods Boutique Card Catch Up

Hey Everyone as I said I am playing catch up on my blog I have some cards to share that I made for the Hot Rods Boutique design team. Which by the way she just got in and started selling Avery Elle products YAY! If you place an order over $50 in the US use the code FREESHIP50 ! Heres a link to the store before I start sharing my projects:
http://etsy.com/shop/HotRodsBoutique

So the First card is one I just made but am a bit unhappy with some of the aspects of it I wish I had gone with a plain navy cardstock background as the gold stars on the patterned paper distract a bit from the image and details I added and makes it seem a bit busy but as I stated in my YouTube video I am happy with my coloring on the image and the fun details and veneers and border I added. Without further ado here is the card using Whimsy Time for Tea Designs "Twinkle Toes"


 Here is the inside
 Here are some past cards I wanted to share. All the main images used can be purchased at Hot Rods Boutiqe and full card details on my YouTube videos:




I Hope you like the cards I posted today I have several others that you can see on my YouTube channel. Tomorrow I will do one last catch up video of some cards I have done recently just for fun that I really like how they turned out. Thanks for stopping by XOXO
