Just Poking By To Say Hello!

 Hello My Friends Happy Monday! I'm back with a card using A Colorful Life Designs.  It's a little weird it not being a Holiday Card 🤣 but we are in Summer and I had so much fun making this card.  Use VonFan10 to save.  If you purchase a Master Creator Bundle you will not need my code as those are marked on sale already at a really great price.  Without further ado here is my card.

This stencil is called Crabbies and it is 6x6.  On white cardstock I used Summer Sky Core ink from Hero Hues Hero Arts.  I ink blended my paper and then laid my stencil down and ink blended the crabs with Cherry ink also Hero Hues ink.  I cut out my background with a stitched rectangle.

I then ink blended just 1 crab with the cherry ink.  I fussy cut it out and gave it some wiggly eyes.  Isn't it cute?? I glued my Crabs to a polka dot pattern slimline paper from Trinity Stamps.  I then glued my Crabs and pattern paper to a A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I popped up my crab with foam tape and stamped a sentiment from Hero Arts In A Pinch Stamp set with Cherry ink.  I cut my sentiment and glued it to my card.  Blue card bling was added and that finishes this fun Summer card.  I think it's cute and I hope you like it.  You should grab this Crabbies Stencil. 😉 and use my code VonFan10.

Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Christmas In July Linky Party 2025 Day 1

 Hello I'm so excited for our Annual Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers {BYSHC} Christmas in July Linky Party.  I'm so excited to see your Holiday cards so use hashtag #christmasinjuly2025byshclp Cards must be Holiday, Christmas, Winter, Yuletide, etc. Without further ado here is my card.

On my first card, I used a lot of AMAZING sponsors for this card. We also have some New Sponsors yay.  I love this digital stamp called Santa's Little Baker from Sponsor Not 2 Shabby and she's free so enjoy.  I printed her and used my Brother Scan N Cut to cut her out.  She was then colored with Copic Markers.  Next, I used Sponsor A Colorful Life Designs Layered Gingerbread Men stencil (Use VonFan10 to save)on a A2 panel 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  You get 2 stencils the cookies and the face with buttons so fun use VonFan10 to save. Next, I used Sponsor Lawn Fawn Doe ink for the Gingerbread Men cookies cookies and black and red inks for the buttons and face.

I used Sponsor Jaded Blossom for the Rounded Tag Die and Sponsor Therm o web for the Jumbo Roll Foam Tape.  I also use a Lawn Fawn STAMPtember stamp set collab. with Simon Says Stamp for the sentiment with red ink.  I added a crinkle ribbon and added everything to a A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  Lastly, I added some Hologram green card bling from Sponsor A Colorful Life Designs.

Here is my second card that I created for Creative Worship Stamps as they are one of our lovely returning Sponsors.

I used Cheerful Snowmen Stamp. I stamped the Snowman in Memento tuxedo ink.  I loved embossing the snowflakes and ink blending with Seedless preserves Distress Oxide ink.  I colored with Copic Markers V05, RV55, C1, E00, YR000, R11, W0, E31, and E55.  I used some Diamond Stickles for the snowflakes for fun.

My panel was cut and matted on black cardstock 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I then glued to a A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I added some white gel pen accents and this card is done.  I had so much fun with it.

This is my 3rd card that I created also for the Creative Worship Stamps Hop.  Hop along with us on IG for a chance to win a $25 GC. to their store.

I also used the Cheerful Snowmen Stamp.  I stamped this snowman in Memento London Fog ink.  I loved the gray look.  I colored also with my Copic Markers. I ink blended my cardstock with Lost Shadow Distress ink. Next, I fussy cut it out and I used 3 different gray inks for the snowflakes.  Pumice Stone Distress Oxide ink, Lost Shadow Distress ink, and Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide ink.  I cut out some snowdrifts and stamped a sentiment with London Fog ink.

I cut my background down and popped up my snowman.  I then glued my panel to a gray A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  Yay I'm so happy with my Snowmen cards.

I hope you'll join us for our {BYSHC} Linky Party.  You have 1 week, it will end July 25th.
