What's The Buzz?


I'm sharing a card I did for the Runway Inspired Challenge.  I used the colors and graphic feel as the inspiration for my card.  It's totally outside my usual colors/feel but I had fun with it!  All of the stamped images are from the Paper Smooches Cyber Cafe set.  I just stamped the images, colored the gray cups and added some washi tape and a teeny strip of black cardstock to finish it off.  I didn't even add any embellishments, it's totally clean and simple and one layer.  I'm happy with how it turned out!  Thanks for looking and be sure to check out the challenge to participate.

Paper Smooches Fun

 Just sharing a couple more cards I've created recently.  I just love this fun paper and stamp from October afternoon!  The chevron is so fresh and trendy!  The turtle, hat and saying are all from the Paper Smooches Party Posse set, SO adorable!! I paper pieced his hat and colored the turtle with copics for a vibrant look.  A gem on his hat and a wiggle eye finish him just perfectly.
Love these super cute puppy stamps from the Woofers and Tweeters set from Paper Smooches.  The background was created using many images from the set stamped in Versamark onto gray paper.  It's so easy to create great background paper with your stamps!  

Thanks so much for checking out my cards!! :)

A few new cards....

 Just sharing a few new cards I've done.  I just love these Memory Box dies!  The window, shutters, flower box, vine and flowers were all done using memory box dies, so fun!  The brick wall was done with an embossing folder and some white ink for a vintage feel.  I used papers from authentique for the wallpaper and curtain.  Love the fresh colors!
 This card uses some great papers from Jillibean soup, LOVE 'em!! For the fun ruffle, I've just taken some crepe paper and attached it with scor-tape to add a fun girly feel.  Simple and so easy!
I used a fun new mask from Heidi Swapp for this card.  So easy to create a fun background using some pearl shimmer spritz and the mask onto a white card.  I added these great stamps from Paper Smooches stamped onto the coordinating dies for a quick, CAS card.  Love these vibrant colors!

Thanks so much for looking, and happy stamping!!

Butterfly Wishes and Chevron Fun!

 Just sharing some cards I've made recently with Paper Smooches stamps.  On this first one, I've stamped the butterflies from Flap Happy onto transparency and colored them using alcohol inks.  I fussy cut them and attached them to the card just on their bodies so the wings pop out.  So fun!!  Love these super fabulous stamps, they're so easy to create with!
This card uses Distress Paints from Ranger along with stamps from the Geo-Graphics set and Slang Gang sentiment set.  I simply inked the stamps with the distress paint and stamped, it creates this cool aged look without any extra work!  Works perfectly on rubber or clear stamps and is so easy!  The sentiment was done the same way, just using white distress paint on colored cardstock.  Such a cool look!  I simply attached my background panel to an aqua card and added some sparkle twine and sequins to finish it off.  

Thanks so much for stopping by and happy stamping!! :)
