Make A Wish

This is a card that I did for the Twilight Meets Harry Potter Swap hosted by Heather on SCS.

I used this image from Bugaboo Digital stamps for this card. Sentiment is from PTI Mega Mixed Messages Stamp set. It was so much fun coloring this image with copics.

I am entering this card for the Outlawz Monday Birthday card Challenge to include a ribbon and Circle on your birthday card.

Birds and more

I wanted to share the two cards that I did for Karly's Anything with Wings Swap on SCS. I have so many images of birds, it was hard to chose.

1) For my first card I used this lovely bird image - Digi Stamp from Whimsy Haven stamps. I love this bird. It looks beautiful as a line art image or colored. I kept the layout simple with some patterned paper and a charm threaded through the ribbon. 

 2) For my second card I used this Studio G stamp from Michaels. I just loved this stamp and I kind of liked how this card turned out. I had to use one of the pins on this card as they seem to be my latest trend :) In this case I used a Making memories Pin and then just added some extra beads to it.

PWCO and PMS Swap

Hi All,

It is Thursday. Time is is flying so fast. I wanted to share two cards that I did for the PWCO and PMS swap.

I used the PWCO (Paperworks CO) Tikki the Toucan stamp for this card. I colored the image with Copics and kept the layout simple. Sentiment is also from PWCO. Patterned paper is from SU. I cut out some PTI dark chocolate felt using PTI Dies and added a button to that flower as well.



I used the PMS Meme stamp for the PMS swap.



I used the SCS Sketch #276 for this card with slight modifications in terms of moving the main image slightly to the left and to add the pearls. The patterned papers are a combination of Bazzill Embossed Papers and Luxe Designs.

Supplies:
Stamp - PWCO Tikki the Toucan and PMS Meme
Paper - PTI Summer Sunrise and White CS, Luxe Designs and SU Patterned Paper
Ink - PTI Dark Chocolate, Memento Black, Copcis, Chai Inking Cube

"Little Men" cards for Swap

I am participating in the "Man" cards swap on SCS hosted by my friend Jen. One of the categories was Little Men Cards. So here are the two cards that I did for this swap,

The first one is also for the Copic Color Challenge #57 - to use the colors G99 (Olive), BV08 (Blue Violet) and E59 (Walnut). This stamp is the Birthday Boy from Stamping Bella. I stamped it on PTI white CS and colored with copics. Used some Copic Spica Glitter pen for the bows and hat. Patterned Paper is from KI Memories and CS is from PTI. Sentiment is from {ippity} set Life's Little Moments.

The Second card uses a Digi Image from Pink Cat Studio called Billy Snowboarder. I just loved this stamp. I colored it with Copics and cut it out with the Deckled Rectangle Nestabilities. The paper is from SEI and it is actually feels like fabric. It is beautiful. Some ribbon corners completed the card. I left out the sentiment as the user can add whatever sentiment they wanted for this card. This card is pretty generic and can be used for Birthday or for Graduation or for a sports day etc.



I added some Glossy Accent to the Snowboard just to give it some added dimension. But for some reason the copics smeared a little when I added the glossy accent. I probably should have heat set it before adding the glossy accent. So, my dear swappers, sorry about that.

I tried to get a close up shot of the snow board so that you can see the glossy accent, but it is not the best depiction.



Supplies:
Stamp - Birthday Boy from Stamping Bella, Billy Snowboard Digi Stamp from Pink Cat Studio, Life's Little Moment from {ippity}
Paper - PTI Aqua Mist, White, Enchanted Evening and Lemon Tart CS, SEI and KI Memories Patterned Paper
Ink - Memento black, Copics, Rangers Distress Ink Faded Jeans
Other - PTI Enchanted Evening Ribbon, Nestabilities, Scallop Border Punch, Glossy Accents

2nd installment cards from Coffee themed swap

Here is my next installment of cards that I made from the coffee/tea themed kit swap.

This kit was from Jen Nevil. It had very nice coffee themed paper and very nice dew drops.

Here are my two cards. I still have some paper and ribbon left over for another card.

Cards from the Coffee themed Kit Swap

I was part of this coffee themed card kit swap. I have gotten back such wonderful kits, it was like a overload of coffee :D Not that I am complaining. Anyways, I was very excited to get start on cards using this kit. The very first kit I picked was from tnb aka Barbara who is my very good friend Jen's mother and I think stays in Hawaii...:))

I used up everything she had sent in the kit. I have some scraps of paper and some ribbon pieces left over...that I can easily make another card with.

Thanks Barbara for this great kit and thanks to Jen for hosting this swap. Next week I will show case some other kit :)

Her kit included beautiful stamped and embossed coffee mug images. I liked them so much that I left them as is and did not color them. She had embossed it in some beautiful golden coffee color...at least that is how the color felt for me. The brown paper she had included was beautiful - two side and I was torn as to which side to use, but the dark brown side won finally. I still have some scraps left over from that DP and have some ideas for that. And she has included some beautiful border sentiment that is just way too cute.

This blue paper went very well with the theme and I loved those glitter brads and the heart accents :) This DP also has two sides, but the stripes were nice and bright and I had to go with it. The ribbon was too nice as well. In retrospect, maybe I should have switched the ribbons so that there was some contrast. Oh well :)

But I loved both the cards and had lots of fun.
