A Fall Card For The Not 2 Shabby August Mood Board Challenge

 Hello everyone.  I'm so excited for the Not 2 Shabby Mood Board Challenge.  I love Fall and this Mood Board has me so excited. This is my second card.  You can watch how I made my first card here on my YouTube Channel. You can win a $15 GC to the Not 2 Shabby Shop.  Use Not 2 Shabby products and you can enter the challenge 3 times.

Here are out Fabulous August Mood Board







On my card I used the Fabulous Pumpkin Market Paper Pack 6x6 and Pumpkin Market Ephemera.  I also used a Digital Stamp from the Not 2 Shabby Shop called Digital Spice Everything.  I loved adding lots of Fall goodness to my card.  When I downloaded my digital stamp on Neenah Solar white 110 pounds.  I colored it in with my Copic Markers and I also did a little ink blending with Rusty Hinge distress oxide ink.  I then cut it to a rectangle and matted it to a larger kraft rectangle.  



My pattern paper was cut to A2 size 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  It was hard choosing a paper as all the ones in the pack are so beautiful.  I glued my paper, image, and some ephemera to a A2 card base.  I love the girl ephemera too.  I can't wait until Fall.  I love how this card came out and I hope you give it a try as you can pick any design.  Our mood board does help with colors, patterns, and collections  Visit Not 2 Shabby Shop here I can't wait to see what you make.  Hugs.

You Make My Heart Happy

 Hello my friends I have a Clean And Simple card today using A Colorful Life Designs Newest Release.  Use VonFan10 to save.  Without further ado here is my card.




I used the New Bauhaus Fluid Shapes Stencil.  It's so much fun.  I wanted to use some primary colors for this card.  I used Concord & 9th inks in Poppy, Marmalade, Buttercup, and Clover on white cardstock 110 pounds.  I used a scalloped rectangle die from Simon Says Stamp to cut my background out.


Next, I glued my scalloped background panel to a red A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I have some sentiment strips in my stash from Taylored Expressions so I glued one to my card.  I then embellished with some Metallic Silver card bling and that finishes my card.  So easy and fun.

Fun Birthday Card Using A Colorful Life Designs

 Hello everyone.  I have a fun Birthday card today using A Colorful Life Designs Newest Release.  Use VonFan10 to save.  Without further ado here is my card.



Isn't this card fun?? I used the New Mid Century Trailing Sectors 6x6 Stencil.  When I first seen this stencil...I was like yup that looks familiar.  It brought back memories of playing video games.  So on white cardstock I ink blended my paper with Blueprint Sketch Distress ink, Uncharted Mariner Distress ink, Hickory Smoke Distress ink, and Villainous Potion Distress ink.  I used Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide ink for the stencil. I added some dots with a black pen.  I then used Gina K Designs for white pigment ink using the Praise Burst Stencil 6x6 and that is another favorite stencil of mine.  I would just tilt my stencil and ink where I wanted.  So fun I love how it came out.


I cut my ink blended cardstock to be 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 A2 size.  I used MFT Stamps Masculine Graphic Stamp for my sentiment that was stamped in black ink.  I then glued my panel to a A2 card base.  That finishes my card I love it.  I hope you check out the New Release.
