Card Concept Challenge #27 Love

Hi,

Sharing my entry in the Card Concept Challenge #27 Love based on the inspiration image below.  I am entering in the Shabby Chic/Vintage category again.

Here is my interpretation

An Easel Card

This cute bear is a Stamp It stamp.

Coloured with copic markers.

Had a blast making this card.  Think I will stick with this category at The Card Concept as I'm enjoying this style and maybe I can use up some of my over burdened craft product stash.

Thanks for stopping by.

Special Easel Christmas Card for Someone Special

Hi,

Here is a pretty christmas card made for someone special aka 'my daughter'.  I also made a box to hold the card as the envelope I originally made couldn't manage the thickness of the card.  The card was made to go along with a gift card so it was a nice way to present it all as a little boxed gift.  The card and box took 2 nights to make which was pretty good I thought.  I used the Stampin Up Scoring Board to make the box once I figured out the dimensions.  The Scoring board is really great for making boxes.

   

The cute little girl is a Magnolia stamp and I coloured her with Copic markers.

She has clear glitz on her bonnet, which looks lovely and sparkly.  

 It is an Easel Card.

 

The lid of the box is stamped with Stampin Up stamp set 'Snowflake Soiree' in various

shades of pink and silver ink pads.

I wrapped the same ribbon I used on the front of the card around the box and added

a matching tag.  But I forgot to take a photo of it! 

  

  

I had a lot of fun making up this project.  I have several Magnolia stamps which I have hardly used.  mainly because they need colouring and I am always short of time.  But I am finding the more I use my Copics it is becoming easier, enjoyable and not so daunting.
Thanks for looking.

Weekly Wednesday Archive 3

Hello,

Wednesday's seem to come around very quickly.  Another archive post.  A birthday card made in 2013.
Not a very good photo but then I can't be blamed as I didn't take it LOL.  The stamp set is a 'Flourishes' stamp set called 'Let them eat Cake'.  Don't think it is available anymore.  It is a nice set.  Could be used for Wedding's too.

 I made an easel card and the recipient likes purple.  Who doesn't like purple :)

I used Spellbinders Nestabilitie dies. They are designed to fit in together which is great.  Stampin Up Elegant Eggplant cardstock, Bazzill lighter shade of purple, Stampin Up punches, sentiment stamp and inside card paper. Various embellishments from the stash.

Thanks for looking.
