Birthday Card Using The Numbers Stencil From A Colorful Life Designs

 Hello everyone.  I have my last card sample for May from A Colorful Life Designs May Release.  Our Mid Month Motivation stencil Rainbow Roads is still on sale and you can still use my code VonFan10.  I had so much fun this month and I hope you enjoyed this months inspiration.  Without further ado here is my card.

This New Numbers 6x6 Stencil is so much fun for Birthdays and Anniversaries or anything regarding a fun milestone.  I used this stencil for a Birthday Card.  I inked the stencil with white cardstock using Catherine Pooler Royal Treatment, Mandarin Spice, Peppermint Scrub, and Sauna inks.  I love these colors together. Next, I cut my background to be 4 x 5 1/4.

I used a older STAMPtember collab. stamp set using Simon Says Stamp and Hero arts called Make A Wish and I stamped the sentiment and image with Memento tuxedo ink.  I colored simply with my Copic markers. I cut out the image and sentiment using a retired Chunky scalloped rectangle die from Simon Says Stamp. I glued my background to a cream colored A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 and popped up my image and sentiment with foam tape.  I embellished with card Bling in Satin Matte Light Purple. I love card Bling.  I hope you grab something fun from A Colorful Life Designs and use VonFan10 to save.  Cannot be used on Master Creator Bundles as those are marked down 20%.  I love how this card came out.  I will be back soon. Hugs.

Inspired By Freezies Challenge

 Hello I'm so happy to participate in the current Inspired By Freezies Challenge#IB340.  I was inspired by the colors, photo, and sketch.  Without further ado here's my card.

On my card, I used MFT Stamps Pair Of Popsicles Die-namics and MFT Stamps Sunshine Kisses Stamp.  I started out with cutting out a bunch of popsicles 8 to be exact with white cardstock.  I ink blended 4 of them using Catherine Pooler Something Borrowed, Green Tea, Mandarin Spice, and Royal Treatment Mini inks and small blending brushes.  

Next, I cut out 4 Popsicle sticks in white cardstock and ink blended them with Concord & 9th ink cube in Stardust.  I then put my popsicles together sandwiching 2 popsicles together 1 ink blended and 1 white cardstock with foam tape.  I stuck the popsicle sticks in with liquid glue.  I then cut out white cardstock 4 x 5 1/4 and glued my popsicles according to the sketch.  I covered my popsicles with a scrap piece of cardstock and flicked ink splatters with a little bit of water using the same inks as my popsicles onto my panel.

I stamped my sentiment from the Sunshine Kisses stamp with Versafine Onyx ink on orange cardstock and then cut it with my paper trimmer.  I then glued my panel to a A2 gray card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I had so much fun making this card.  Thank you to Inspired by for their fun challenges.

A Football Card

 Hello there I have a Sports card today.  I love Football and have football withdraw right now.  My favorite team is the Kansas City Chiefs and yup #15 Patrick Mahomes is my favorite player.  I love this New Stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called Make A Jersey Stencil.  It's a 6x9 stencil and you can add numbers and make 2 different jerseys so great.  Use VonFan10 to save.  Without further ado here is my card.

I made a Congratulations card maybe Kansas City Chiefs will win the Super bowl next year.  On white cardstock I used the jersey with Concord & 9th Poppy ink, Mustard Distress Oxide ink, and Memento Luxe Wedding Dress ink for the numbers and lines on jersey.  It's a white that was easier to use than other white inks I had.  It shows up at at least without using colored paper or you can stamp and heat emboss that might work better.  

I then fussy cut the jersey out and put a football together from my stash with brown and white cardstock.  I cut out some Lawn fawn pattern paper from Let's Polka in the Dark paper pad cut to 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I stamped the sentiment with Whimsy Stamps Cue The Confetti Stamp and cut it to a strip.  I glued my pattern paper and football to a A2 card base and popped up the football and sentiment with foam tape.  I think it's a fun card after all it's my favorite sport.  I hope you grab this stencil it's great for everyone.

Happy Birthday Boba Anya Card

 Hello I'm so happy to share my card I made for a couple of challenges.  I love challenges don't you? I chose to make a Birthday Card today.  Without further ado let's get to my card.

On my card, I started out with white cardstock Hammermill 100 pounds.  I stamped Boba Anya and heat embossed her with Versafine Onyx ink and WOW Clear embossing powder.  I colored her in with my Copic markers.  I went with a orange color combo for her hair.  A turquoise color combo for her dress and hair ties and green for her boba.  She has white boots today and white bracelet. Her boba is a neutral brown color.  I then fussy cut her out.

Next, I cut out some white cardstock for a square 3 7/8 x 3 7/8.  I cut out some flowers and leaves as well as a sentiment in cardstock colors to match using Spellbinders DOM Jan 23.  The sentiment reads Happy Birthday it's hard to read it on the photos.  I glued everything to a gray heavy weight card base 4x4.

I will be linking my card to a few challenges.  I had so much fun making this card.

Color Throwdown Challenge

Freshly Made Sketches 689

Sending You A Pocket Full Of Pawsitivity

 Hello I have a card today for the current Inspired By Challenge Denim.  I am personally a denim girl.  I love my jeans. So I was excited by this challenge and of course I could find my denim pattern cardstock but anyhoo without further ado let's get to my card.

On my card, I used a older STAMPtember stamp set collab. with Simon Says Stamp and Newton's Nook Designs called Pocket Full of Happy.  I finally got to use this stamp set yay.  I stamped and heat embossed the image with Versafine Onyx black ink and WOW clear gloss super fine embossing powder. I then colored it in with my alcohol markers and fussy cut it out.  

I was also inspired by the sketch so I used some watercolor paper and my distress watercolor pencils in Faded Jeans, Mermaid Lagoon, and Blueprint Sketch and some water with a paintbrush.  I then cut my watercolor paper with my paper trimmer.  I also cut a A2 size cardstock panel 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 and well as a card base.

I stamped a few sentiments from the same stamp set on white cardstock with Hero Hues Periwinkle ink.  I cut my sentiments with my paper trimmer.  Now it was time to assemble my card, I glued everything with liquid glue and popped up my sentiment with foam tape.  I love how my card came out.  It was so much fun to make.  Such a fun challenge.  I hope you were inspired. 

Hello You Make Me Smile

 Hello I have a card today my main motivation was the Color Hues Challenge #111 Coral and Green.  I think these colors are fun and I immediately went through my stash to see what to make with these 2 colors.  Without further ado here's my card.

I love this CAS card I made.  I finally got to use a Pinkfresh Studio set that has been in my stash for a long while.  So I started off with Hammermill cardstock and stamped my first set of alpha images from the Pinkfresh Studio called Inna's Alpha Stamp set (unfortunately it's retired) using Lawn Fawn Black Licorice ink.  There are 2 large images for the whole alpha.  I needed both stamped.  I used my Misti stamping platform.  

I used the coordinating stencils to ink the letters, florals, and leaves.  I must admit that was fun.  I used inks Pinkfresh Studio Persimmon and Concord & 9th Grapefruit ink for the coral.  I used Concord & 9th inks in Parsley and Evergreen for the leaves for my green.  I inked the letters in Concord & 9th Dove ink for my neutral color.  I then used the coordinating dies to cut the letters out and like the stamp there is 2 large dies.

I arranged my letters to fit on my background die-cut.  I also cut out an extra set of letters with heavy weight cardstock to layer onto for dimension.  The die I used for my background is called Pinkfresh Studio Diagonal Stitched Plaid that I cut out in white 110 pound cardstock.  I glued everything to a A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I found a sub sentiment strip in my stash and I popped it up with a foam strip.  I embellished my card with Pinkfresh Studio jewels in Bubblegum.  I had so much fun making this card and I even have so many letters ready to go for future cards. I think this card will be for a crafty friend as I have been telling them lately they make me smile and it's true.💖

I also will be linking my card to the Pinkfresh Studio Anything Goes Challenge there is a color inspiration as well.  I will have to try that next time.

Not 2 Shabby June 2025 Challenge Mood Board

 Hello everyone I have a card today that makes me so excited.  I am participating in the Not 2 Shabby Mood Board Challenge for June.  I love the inspiration for this month.  I have been eating so much watermelon lately that I am saying that is my number 1 fruit, so I had to make a watermelon card.  Without further ado here is my card.

So for my card as you can see it's a watermelon card. YAY.  I was so inspired with the question what my favorite fruit was that Teresa asked on the N2S Blog and I literally have been eating watermelon everyday. I bought a huge one and have been cutting a little at a time.  So delicious.  So yes watermelon is my favorite and I love love watermelon smoothies yum.  

Okay to my card.  I used a older Not 2 Shabby paper pad called My Sweet Valentine that I cut to 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I also used the EZ Wonder die 1 to cut my glitter circle out from the same paper pack.

I also used the EZ Wonder die 1 with green cardstock and red foiled cardstock. I love all the strips you get perfect for fast and easy cards.  I cut out a sentiment from the N2S On The Sunny Side paper pack that's new to me.  Love that this paper pad has sentiments.  I downloaded the digital Watermelon Popsicle Stamp on Hammermill cardstock 100 pounds.  I colored it in with copic markers and fussy cut it out.

I glued everything to a A2 card base and popped up my watermelon popsicle with foam tape as well as the red foiled circle die-cut.  I placed a few white gel pen accents and added glossy accents to the seeds.  I had so much fun making this card.  I hope I inspired you to enter the challenge.  You may submit your card up to 3 times for a chance of winning a $15 GC.  So exciting.
