Summer is a big time for outdoor activities here in Colorado, so I could not resist using the new Camping Out stamp set to create a Colorado-esque canoeing scene. Colorado is also a state filled with dog lovers (I am one of them), so I could not resist the adorable dog wagging ‘hello’ from the lake.
Hello everyone, Sanna here today with one last Christmas project for this season. I created a blue-red-white colored gift tag that will hopefully make its recipient happy. This background is so much fun to make!
Hi! It’s Candy Spiegel returning with another project I created. This one was designed for my husband’s birthday.
For the cover, I started with a piece of Velvet Adhesive Sheet in beige and embossed it with Trendy Tiles 2 embossing folder. I was trying to replicate some sort of brick roadway.
After embossing, I coated the raised portion with Staz-On Ink in black. Then, I created the corners with a corner rounder.
I die cut one Happy Birthday out of black card stock and one out of patterned paper and layered the two to create a shadow effect.
I then transferred my Peel-Off sticker on a piece of double sided adhesive on white card stock and applied Cool Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter. I colored my image with Copic markers. Els has a great You video of this technique: Silk Microfine Glitter – Coloring with Alcohol Markers.
For the inside of the card, I used the Lots of Pops die set.
I added “Happy Birthday” on a banner from the Assorted Words Peel-Off sheet.
The saying was printed on the computer. I used the extra dies from the Katie Label Pivot Card to create the labels. I added tiny steering wheels from the Peel-Off sheet to the edges.
I also added a few planes from that same sticker sheet to the background.
My husband loved it … what do you think?
