We created a fun Father's Day card using a Beth Duff Designs digital stamp called Rawrsome- A Get kids crafty exclusive stamp.  After I had printed off the digital stamp from the computer Riley colored the images. I let him use my spectrum noir markers which was scary for me as they are a bit more expensive and he's not the nicest or gentle when it comes to coloring with markers.   Though I kept reminding him to be gentle with them and we sat together and colored. He was so focused as we colored together and it

Happy Anniversary

Hi there, Happy Monday!  I am so excited to finally share this card with you today.  I'm finally catching up on all my blogging I need to do.  It feels great and I love sharing my cards with you my readers so that you can see how products are used and inspire you in your own crafty adventures. I made this card back in March for my Husband for our 5th wedding anniversary. I'm just finally getting it up on the blog. Things have been busy around here.   I used the stamp set Upon a star from Lawn Fawn for the foxes and stars. To stamp the foxes I used Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Then I colored them OR1 (Spectrum Noir) and YR07 Cadmium Orange (Copic).  For the stars I stamped them in Simon Says Stamp Clear embossing ink and used Lawn Fawn Glow in the Dark embossing powder and heat set those with the Marvey heat tool.  Yes, the stars glow in the dark, I am still in awe that I can make things glow in the dark on my cards and projects it's just too fun. Then the grass was cu

"You're on a Roll" using Beth Duff Designs

Hello, it's me again and I've got another card to share using a Beth Duff Designs digital stamp. This time I used these cute otters from the set " Life's Greatest Blessing".    First I started off by printing the images on my printer and then colored the otters are are colored in pencil crayons and outlined in true black from Spectrum noir to finish off the edges after cutting out the image and hide any white.   I was inspired by this particular otter when I looked at him to me it looked like they were rolling around like a little ball. I remembered  I had a stamp from Micheal's $1.50 bin that said you're on a roll. So I knew I needed to create a card using these two things.   The sentiment was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  Then I sponged Ground espresso distress ink over the sentiment and edges of the card to make these parts pop.  The embossed background is called Swiss Dots and I am not sure if it is still available. Sorry I

Copic colors: E21, V04 Lilac, V17 Amethyst, B02 Robin's egg blue. Spectrum Noir: BG1, PL2, BG2, TN7.   Finally the sentiment comes from the Honey Bee stamps "perfect blend" stamp set.
