It's Pumpkin Spice Season!

 Hello there!  I have a card to share that I created for the Color Hues Challenge Orange and Green.  I love these colors, another amazing combo.  I first thought of oranges. 

Without further ado, here is my card...

I have been loving the Pumpkin Spice Coffees lately Hot or Cold I love both.  So when I seen the colors for this challenge I decided to make a Pumpkin Spice Coffee fall card.  I started out with Trinity Stamps Boo Brew Die Set.  I cut out the larger cup die with orange cardstock 65 pounds.  I cut out the stitched dies for the cup with white cardstock 110 pounds.  I ink blended those with Stampin Up Pumpkin Pie ink.  I cut out the whip with white cardtock and used W2 Copic Marker for some interest.  The leaf and squiggly stem is cut out with white cardstock 110 pounds and ink blended with Hero Arts Hero Hues Moss ink cube.  I glued my Pumpkin spice coffee together with liquid glue and added foam tape to the back.

I cut out a white cardstock panel 110 pounds 4 x 5 1/4.  I used A Colorful Life Designs Leaf Frame 6x6 Stencil (use VonFan10 to save)with the same Moss ink cube.  I love how it came out.  I cut out a pre printed sentiment that Unity Stamp Co. had sent me free with a purchase. I popped this sentiment up with foam tape after cutting it down with my paper trimmer.

I adhered everything to a A2 card base and that finishes this card.  I had so much fun creating for this challenge.  I will be back soon with another Blog Post.

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.

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.
