FOSTV #5 - Sentiment Only

Good Morning Everyone,

Happy Monday, Welcome to a new week of challenges with Friends of SpeedyTV.  This weeks challenge is to make a card using a sentiment only. You can use anything else on your card (flowers, gems, brads, buttons, dies, ribbon) just only use a sentiment no images.

For my card, I took my heart nestability and cut out of red and pink cardstock each size and then mounted them on top of each other with pop dots.  I am using glossy white cardstock for the base of my card and then I mounted heart designer paper onto the base of my card and then mounted my heart nestabilities to the base of my card. Then I stamped my sentiment with basic black on plain white cardstock and then mounted it onto red cardstock and then to the card. I finished off my with silver gems.

I just left the inside of my card blank. I hope you enjoyed my card. Thanks for stopping and commenting, I hope to see you again. Now it is your turn to join in on the fun Friends of SpeedyTV. Have a blessed day.


Thanks

Speedy Fox Friends #92 - 4 Layer Card

Happy Saturday,

Welcome to another fun filled week of challenges with Speedy Fox and Friends.  This weeks challenge is to make a 4 layer card. You would think that would be an easy card to make, but it was kinda hard for me. I wanted to do something special for you so here is my idea of a 4 layer card.

I am using a technique that I got from Split Coast Stampers called "Criss Cross Card". I am using You are Cherished and Love Remains from Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co, January releases. I am using red, pink, speckled white, white and designer paper for this card. I stamped my images with basic black in an then colored with my Copic Markers. I stamped my sentiments with Regal Rose ink pad. I finished off the outside of my card with heart ribbon and clear gemstones.

On the inside of my card I followed the same steps as I did with the outside. The inside is removable from the card. This was a fun fold, and easy to make. I hope you enjoyed my card. Thanks for stopping and commenting, I hope to see you again soon. Make sure to stop by the blog and join the fun. For more fun with Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co, visit SpeedyTV and join the challenges with the Friends of SpeedyTV. Have a blessed day.

FOSTV Challenge 4 - 2012 - Happy Birthday

Happy Monday Fellow Stampers,

Hope you enjoyed our blog hop last week showcasing our January release stamp sets. This weeks challenge is to make a Birthday Card. Now everyone has a birthday so we should all be in need of these types of cards. I chose Birthday card this week because yesterday was my birthday. I wish I could say it was a good one, but none the less it is always good to have birthday cards on hand. Let's see what the team has in store for us this week.

This week I made my card using deep olive cardstock for the base of my card (one of my favorite colors) and white and lavendar (another one of my favorite colors) for my layers. I stamped my image onto my white cardstock and then colored with my Copic Markers. I stamped my sentiment with Lavender Lace ink. I added sheer purple lace with gold trim to the outside of my card and finished it off with clear gems. On the inside of my card I stamped my image and sentiment with Lavender Lace ink and added the clear gems to the corners of the inside of the card. I hope you enjoyed my card. Thanks for stopping and commenting, I hope to see you again soon. Make sure to stop by SpeedyTV  and join the fun.  Have a blessed day.

Thanks

HSI #32 Red & White / Ribbon

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to a new week of challenges with Heart Song Inspirations. This week we are challenging you to make a card using red and white and/or ribbon. With Valentine's Day just around the corner I know you all are just thinking of that perfect card to make for that loved one in your life.

This week I am using a glossy white cardstock for the base of my card. I chose to use Heart Song Designs "Kissing Fish".  I have been dying to use this image ever since last year and now that Valentine's Day is here I get to use it. YIPEE!! Anyway I colored my image using Copic Markers, then I cut the image out and mounted it to a red die cut. I added some pretty red and pink ribbon to my card and then mounted my image. I typed up my own sentiment on the computer and then mounted it to red cardstock and then to my card. I finished off my card by adding some cream colored pearl pen dots to the die cut.

On the inside of my card I typed up and oldie but goodie poem and sentiment and then mounted it to red cardstock. I hope you enjoy my card. Thanks for stopping and commenting, I hope to see you again. Make sure to stop by the blog and comment on the other design teams cards and join in on the fun. Have a blessed day.

Speedy Fox and Friends #91 - Happy Birthday

Welcome to another fun filled week with Speedy Fox and Friends. This weeks challenge is to make a Birthday card. This fits perfect since tomorrow is my birthday, we won't say how old I am just that it is my birthday.

For my card I used the Vellum Sentiment technique again since it makes the cards so beautiful. I chose to use Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co January release "You are Cherished". I stamped my image onto white cardstock and then colored with my Copic Markers. I chose to use a pale plum color cardstock for the base of my card. I used my circle Spellbinder and cut a whole into the base of my card with the largest die. Once my whole was there I mounted my image into the circle, then I stamped some sentiments on there. I covered the the entire card with Vellum. I added some pink ribbon to the vellum and then stamped my second sentiment onto the top of the vellum. Once my ribbon and sentiment was on the vellum I mounted it to my card with brads.

For the inside of my card I only stamped my "Happy Birthday" sentiment. I hope you enjoyed my card. Thanks for stopping and commenting, I hope to see you again soon. Make sure to stop by and join the fun. Have a blessed day.

Wow what a week.  I just want to say that I am privileged not only to work with such AWESOME stamps but to also work with some very talented women. Today is that last day of our hop and we are showcasing "You are Cherished". As you can see this is such a beautiful stamp set and perfect for Valentine's Day. 

I know I have been creating some intricate cards this week but today I am just doing a normal A2 card. Sorry no frills today. for my card I chose a pale yellow cardstock for the base of my card. I stamped my image onto white cardstock and colored with my Copic Markers. I then cut it out and mounted it to a salmon carstock. I mounted a lace ribbon to the card and then mounted my image to the card. I finished it off with some salmon colored buttons. 

On the inside of my card I layered the white and salmon cardstocks and then stamped my sentiment and image and colored the image the same as the outside. I hop you enjoyed my no frills card today. Thanks for stopping and commenting, I hope to see you back again soon and maybe as a follower. Make sure to comment on all the talented ladies blogs to qualify for one these fabulous new sets. For more fun with Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co. play along with us on Speedy Fox and Friend and Friends of SpeedyTV challenges we have weekly.
