Bambi Bubble Gum

I created this card today for the Spring Selfie Krop challenge over on Kraftin' Kimmie's Facebook page.  I paired the moodboard inspiration challenge along with the May sketch #2 over at Viva La Verve. From the moodboard I used pink, yellow, dots, flowers, candy (gum). 

 



I started with a white card base and added a piece of yellow dot patterned card stock backed in pink card stock.  I added a strip of yellow striped patterned paper.  The image I used is Bambi Bubble Gum from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps. I stamped her onto Spectrum Noir smooth card stock and colored her using Spectrum Noir pens.  I backed it in yellow and pink card stock.  I added 3 mini pink paper flowers and in the center of each flower I added a pink gem.

She Loves Me In Lilac And Green


To create this card using House Mouse's She Loves Me rubber stamp, I started with a 5" x 5" green card base and added a piece of purple dot patterned paper backed in white card stock.  I cut a smaller square of green gingham patterned paper, backed it in white card stock and added it to the center.  I colored the image using Spectrum Noir pens and backed it in light purple card stock.  I punched the edge of a strip of white card stock using an eyelet lace border punch and added a piece of sheer purple ribbon to it.  I made a bow out of the same ribbon and added a purple gem to the center of the bow. I also added 3 more purple gems to the green gingham square.

Bambi Bubble Gum

I created this card using the Bambi Bubble Gum stamp from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.  I combined it with the sketch from Papertake Weekly and the color pallet from Creative Colors.

 

Here is my card.....


I started with a square aqua card base.  I added a piece of plaid aqua card stock cut slightly smaller than the base.  I added a square piece of peach fuzz card stock (looks a little orange in this picture).  I added a piece of light aqua card stock that I cut the edge using a lace border punch.  Then I added a square piece of dot patterned card stock.  I colored the image using Spectrum Noir pens and backed it in aqua card stock.  I added a flower that I created by layering a dark aqua paper flower, an aqua paper flower and a white paper flower with an aqua gem in the center.  I also added 3 aqua gems to the upper corner of the card and one more on her hat.

Dragonfly

Here is a spring birthday card I created using Elisabeth Bell's Dragonfly digital stamp and combined it with the sketch at Sugar Pea Designs and photo inspiration from Cupcake Inspirations.


From the inspiration photo I used the dragonflies, small flowers and I used the color pink (also added blue and green into the image).

SPDSS25      


I started with a 4 1/4" x 6" card base. Onto the base I layered a piece of rose card stock onto a piece of brown card stock and then added a piece of brown dot distressed patterned paper.  I rounded the corners of each layer and the corners of the card base.  I colored the image using Spectrum Noir pens and cut it out using a nesting rectangle embossing die.  I added a thin line of pink around the edge using the CR3 Spectrum Noir pen and then backed it in brown card stock. I added two loops of pink and brown dot ribbon peaking out from under the image and 2 light pink paper flowers each with a pink pearl to the bottom corner. I stamped the sentiment directly onto the brown dot patterned paper.
