Hello, happy June! This month at Send A Smile 4 Kids we are celebrating teens. I have a friend who recently purged some craft supplies and gifted me a few older CTMH stamp sets. I used the Fun Times stamp set to create that fun green strip of critters. I stamped the images onto some green patterned paper from the Little Yellow Bicycle's Fern & Forest 6x6 paper pad using Hero Arts green ink. I cut that down into a smaller strip panel and mounted it on some early espresso cardstock from Stampin' UP. I cut down another panel of patterned paper from the paper pad and mounted that on dark brown cardstock and adhered the panel to my card base. I stamped some sub sentiments from The Greetery's PreText Sentiment stamp set using charcoal brown ink from Gina K Designs and cut them down into small sentiment strips and mounted them on brown cardstock. Using the top half of the Simon Says Stamp Birthday Wishes sentiment die, I die cut more of the same early espresso cardstock using the Birthday die. I attached that to a white panel and mounted that on brown cardstock. I adhered that to the card panel and added some fun yellow enamel dots from Simple Stories for a nice pop of color. Thank you for stopping by my blog. I hope you stop by the Send A Smile 4 Kids blog and see how the rest of the design team was inspired.

This month a Send A Smile 4 Kids our theme is cards for boys. What could be more perfect for a special little boy than a cute little green monster, right? I found the inspiration for this adorable card on Pinterest, and it was so easy to create. I started by layering some basic black cardstock onto my A2 card base. I cut down a piece of patterned paper from the Little Yellow Bicycle Fern & Forest 6x6 paper pack using a Lawn Fawn stitched hill border die and attached the bottom piece directly to my cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from Paper Smooches Sentiment Sampler stamp set onto the card using Gina K Designs black ink. Using My Favorite Things pierced edge nesting circle dies and Spellbinders pennant dies I created the eyes and teeth for my little monster. I glued the eyes together in a wonky pattern and attached them to the top panel and then attached the teeth using to the underside of the panel. Once everything was adhered to the panel, I attached it to the card using 3M foam tape and added some white gel pen detail to the eyes for a little extra interest. Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Be sure to head over to Send a Smile 4 Kids to check out what the rest of the design team created this month!
Hello and happy Sunday! I created my card today for the latest Just Us Girl's card challenge. I was browsing through my local Hobby Lobby yesterday and happened upon the cutest little gnome stamp set and couldn't resist buying it. As soon as I saw this challenge today I knew I had to use it. I started by stamping the gnome images from Inkadinkado's Garden Gnome stamp set onto Copic-friendly cardstock and colored them using my alcohol markers and the colors in the photo as my guide. I then die cut the images down to a focal panel using a Paper Rose stitched rectangle die. Using patterned papers from the Little Yellow Bicycle Fern & Forest 6x6 paper pad I created a fun backdrop for my focal panel. I then stamped the sentiment from the Stampendous True Friends stamp set and die cut it out using a pierced edge oval die from My Favorite Things. I finished my card off by scattering a few clear rhinestones from Recollections around the sentiment and main images. Thank you for stopping by my blog today!
