Spring For Sale- Mo Manning

Happy Sunday!

I recently purchased several of Mo Manning's images.  I just colored up this cutie called Spring for Sale.

 

There are severl different dies used here, the quatrefoil die from Taylored Expressions, and two Spellbinder dies, the circle and the scalloped circle.

 

The image was colored with copics and I added Star Dust Stickles to the flowers and the heart on her apron.  The paper is from My Minds Eye, Bramble Rose pad.

Around the Campfire - Taylored Expressions

Hi chickies-

I joined the Stamp of the Month Club over at Taylored Expressions and I just recieved my first two kits!!!  I was so excited - I had to make a card!  LOL.

 

I used the Smore Fun stamp set, the Around the Campfire dies, the Happy Campers paper pad, and the bron cardstock from the kit!  Whew!  I used several dies from all over and I added some liquid pearls all around.  I colored the little camper with copics and added Star Dust Stickles on the windows and the heart.  I used various SU inks for the trees.

Shirley - Mo Manning

Hi there!

Busy day for me today!  Lot's of volleyball and baseball.  :)

I have a few cards to share with you all tonight that I have been working on.  The first one is an image from Mo Manning that I have had in my stash in a while.  It is called Shirley. 

I used the MME paper pad called Market for several of my cards today.  I used craft cardstock behind all of the little squares.  The image was colored with my copics and I added stickles to the ruffles in her dress.

I also used my spellbinders circle die and scallop dies on this card.  The ribbon is from my stash and so are the pearls.

I am going to enter this card in the following challenge:

Winter Fairy Halla - Mo Manning

Here are a few fun cards that I made using the adroable image from Mo Manning called Winter Fairy Halla.  This has got to me one of my favorite Mo images!

I used some old designer paper from Stampin Up and a few different Spellbinder dies and dazzing diamonds. I really like this "non-traditional" color theme for Christmas.  I actually created another card using the same image and a slightly different Copic color combination:

She is a blond and a little bit lighter complexion.  :)

Here are the both of them:

Sympathy - PTI

Hi Ladies, 

I have a Sympathy card to share with you tonight.  One of my co-workers had a death in the family last week.  :(

I made the card below for her.

 

I go this idea from Tami White - a Stampin Up demonstrator.  She is so talented!  I used Neenah paper and embossed the first layer that is on the plain base with a patterned Sizzix folder.  I then sponged it with Sahara Sand ink.  I then cut and masked the top layer with a Labels Eight Spellbinders die.  I used two stamps from PTI - Botanical Silhouettes and the sentiment is from Gracious Vases.  I used Pale Plum and Old Olive ink for the main image.  I shaded around the image with Sahara Sand.  I then cut the entire thing out with the Label Eight die that was one size bigger.

 

 

Have a good evning.

Autumn Bounty - Sweet n Sassy Stamps

Good evening ladies,

I have a card to share with you tonight that I just made using the Autumn Bounty samp set that I won from Sweet n Sassy.  :)  

I used some papers that I purchased from Michaels in Fall colors.  I ran the burnt orange one through my big shot with a wood grain texture plate.  I love how it came out!  Then I ran some burlap through my big shot with a circle Spellbinders die.  Finally, I used my MFT fish tail die and ran some brown card stock through the big shot.  Whew!  That was a lot of die cutting for me!

I hope you can see all the texture that I have going on here!  Some times pictures don't do justice.  :)

I added an image from the stamp set and a very cute saying that is also from the set.  I used my ticket corner punch from SU and a few SU circle punches for the sentiment.  I distressed the edge using some Antique Linen distress ink on the image and the sentiment.

As a final touch I added three orange-y rhinestones to the top corner. 

I am submitting this card to the challenge below:

Watermelon Girl - Mo Manning

 

Happy Sunday Chicas!

 

 

I have a fun card to share with you today.  I bought all of the little fruit girls from Mo a while ago.  They are just the cutest girls!  Well on this card I used the little watermelon girl.  I colored the main image with Prisma Colored Pencils.  I shaded around the image with chalk.

 

 

I used a Sizzix folder to make the circle background.  The ribbon is some wide Pretty in Pink grosgrain that I have from SU.  I used my Spellbinders Label 2 die to sut out the main image.

Some Penny Black Goodies

Hi,

I have a few cards that I made using some of my favorite stamps, which happen to be by Penny Black.  I love her cute Hedgehog characters!  All the images are colored with Copic markers.

With out further adieu here they are:

The first card is Hearts Away by Penny Black.  It is a woodblock stamp.  I used the Hero Arts Cloud Background stamp with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink for the clouds.  I think the sentiment is from PTI with a PTI label die, but I am not sure.  I used the Spellbinders Label Eleven die to cut out the image. The entire image was placed on a Kraft card stock base that was given a scalloped edge with a Martha Stewart punch.

My second card is made using the Garden Visit Penny Black wood block stamp.  I used the Spellbinders Label Eleven die to cut it out.  The edges are shaded with Antique Linen distress ink.  I think the DSP is My Minds Eye - Stella & Rose. I added a little bling at the bottom.  :) 

My third card is using the same Garden Visit stamp and the same papers, just a different layout.  I think I like this one better.

Ok, this one was made using the Hedgey Gift stamp.  I embossed the Hero Arts Woodgrain background stamp in Versamark ink and used clear embossing powder to make the wood grain look and feel wonderful. The apples are covered with Crystal Accents to give them great shine, they look yummy in person!  :) I used a ticket corner punch and some Michaels ribbon for accent.

My next card was Hedgehog Visit.  I used the Divine Swirls Cuttlebug folder on the green card stock at the bottom.  I don't remember where I bought the blue gingham patterned paper...  Can you see my lovely stitching?  ;)  I LOVE how stitching looks but I am not very good at it.  

Here is another version using Hedgehog Visit.  I think the DSP is from a huge pack I bought at Michaels.

This card has to be one of my favorites!  It is with the Bountiful woodblock stamp. I "faux stitched" the border and used some SU ribbon to match.  The photo does not show it but the inside of the poppies are shiny.  I used my Sakura Clear Glaze pen on them.

The final image is Poppy Fields by Penny Black.  I used my Swiss Dots Cuttle Bug Embossing folder.  I don't remember wich Spellbinder Die I used to cut our the image...  Hmmm...  I added some SU Dazzling Diamonds to the butterflies for sparkle. 

I hope you enjoyed!  Have a great day!
