Bees Tag

 

This is a tag that I made using two different stencils and stamped with bees (Stampin' Up!). I used Distress Oxide Inks and, for the bees, Versafine Onyx ink. I used fabric as the fiber to put through the hole at the top.

Hello 2

I began this 4 1/2" square card by cutting a 4 1/4" panel of the rosy-colored scrapbook paper. Then, I cut the four squares to lie on top of it. Next, I cut the square for the top and adhered it with double-sided foam tape. I stamped a bee (Stampin' Up!) on it with Versafine Onyx ink and die cut the sentiment in white twice to stack them for stability and dimension, a la Jennifer McGuire.

I began this A2-sized card by cutting the flowered panel and adhering to the front of the card using double-sided tape. Then, I die cut the sentiment twice a la Jennifer McGuire to add stability and dimension. I glued it down. After that, I stamped the bees (Stampin' Up!) with Versafine Onyx ink.

I began this by cutting the red panel to fit within the A2-sized white card base. Then, I cut the flowered scrapbook paper. Next, I die cut two of the white sentiments and glued them together a la Jennifer McGuire to give them more stability and dimension. Finally, I stamped the bee (Stampin' Up!) using Versafine Onyx ink.

This is a mini slim line card measuring 3 1/2" by 6". I began by stamping the image (Stampers Anonymous) using Versafine Onyx on white card stock. Then, I mounted that onto black card stock and onto purple card stock using double-sided tape. Next, I glued a tiny brass key to the white panel.

Be Mine

 This little card measures approximately 3 3/4" by 4 1/4". I first stamped the "XO" background (Stampin' Up!) on light pink card stock with Colorbox Chalk ink and cut it out using a heart die. Then, I stamped the banner (also Stampin' Up!) on red card stock using Versafine Onyx. Next, I stamped the sentiment (Stampin' Up!) across the banner. I glued that to the heart shape. After that, I adhered the heart and banner to the black card blank lifting it up with double-sided foam tape. Finally, I stamped the sentiment (also Stampin' Up!) across the bottom of the card.

P.S. My shoulders, neck and back are still giving me some grief, but I was gentle with myself and made 3 Valentine's Day cards. I will try again tomorrow, too.

Someday

I began this A2-sized card by stamping the focal image (Stampington & Company) in Versafine Onyx on mixed media paper. Then, I stamped the squares and circles (Hero Arts) and the word Someday (Uptown Design Co.) using Distress Oxide inks. After that, I adhered the white panel to the magenta panel and then to the black panel using double-side tape. I adhered all of that to a white card base.

Childhood is a Journey

 I began this A2-sized card by cutting a piece of white card stock for the top. I stamped the sentiment (Momenta) using Colorbox Chalk lipstick red and the tricycle (Unity) using Versafine Onyx. Then, I cut a piece of red card stock, which was slightly larger and adhered the two pieces together. Next, I adhered that onto the white card base.

Big Ben: London

I began this tag by stamping the clock (Inkadinkado) and Big Ben (Stampabilities) on scraps of white card stock with Versafine Onyx. I cut down the Big Ben image and colored it in with my Spectrum Noir colored pencils. Then, I die cut the tag which measures approximately 2 1/2" by 4 1/2". Next, I cut strips of white and red card stock and glued it to the tag. Then, I glued the clock face to the tag. After that, I used double-sided foam tape to adhere the other image to the tag. Then, I used my Silent Setter to bore a hole into the top middle of tag. I set in an eyelet and threaded a white ribbon through it.

Circles All Over

I began this tag by die cutting the black background. It measures approximately 3" by 3 1/4". Then, I stamped the image (Above the Mark) on a scrap of white card stock using Versafine Onyx. I glued that to the background. Next, I bored holes into the two top corners with my Silent Setter and set black eyelets into the holes. After that, I pushed through a white ribbon and tied it off.

"Earth Laughs in Flowers."

I began this A2-sized card by stamping the floral images (Magenta) with Versafine Onyx ink on a white card stock panel. Then, I colored the flowers using a blue chalk and the "stems" with green. Next, I stamped the sentiment (Great Impressions) using Vivid vintage green. Finally, I adhered the panel to a greenish card base with double-sided tape.

Ostrich Races

This stamp cracks me up every time I use it!

I began this A2-sized card by stamping the ostriches (Mostly Animals) on a manila-colored card stock with Versafine Onyx. Then, I adhered that to a black piece of card stock to frame the image. Next, I cut the patterned scrapbook paper slightly smaller than the red card base and used double-sided tape to adhere the two together. Finally, I die cut the sentiment out of black card stock and glued it below the ostriches, because they make me laugh!

Woodcut birds

 I began this A2-sized card by stamping the woodcut-type birds (Inkadinkado) on the yellow gingham scrapbook paper with Versafine Onyx. Then, I cut black card stock slightly smaller than the manila-colored card base and adhered the two using double-sided tape. Next, I cut the floral and black scrapbook paper slightly smaller than the black card stock and adhered it. After that, I adhered the yellow gingham on top. That makes four layers.

Cupcake 2

Except for the ribbon, this is a one-layer A2-sized card. I began by stamping the cupcake and the sentiment on a white card base using Versafine Onyx. I colored the cupcake with my Spectrum Noir colored pencils. I cut slits down either side with my X-acto knife and threaded the ribbon through. I also cut a slit near the fold and brought the thread to the inside of the card. I taped it down with double-sided tape.

Cupcake 1

I began this card by stamping the cupcake (Inkadinkado) on a piece of white card stock with Versafine Onyx, and I cut it out with scissors. I colored it using my Spectrum Noir colored pencils. Then, I cut a piece of magenta card stock slightly smaller than the A2-sized card base. I ran it through by Big Shot with an embossing folder to create a textured surface. I adhered that to the card base with double-sided tape. Next, I cut a length of jumbo wide orange rick-rack and glued it to the magenta panel. After that, I glued the cupcake cut-out to the rick-rack. Finally, I used yellow Stickles to simulate a flame for the candle.

You Are Enough

I began this card by embossing the green panel. Then, I adhered it to the A2-sized card base. Next, I stamped the sentiment (Stampers Anonymous) on light pink paper with Versafine Onyx, and using my MISTI, lined it up to make sure it was straight. After that, I used my paper trimmer to cut it down to size.
