Jukebox, Play My Favorite Song

Hello, Timothy here with a card using lyrics from my favorite song.

pattern paper on top of the yellow cardstock.

I colored the fun Jukebox stamp and cut it out leaving a white border.

I used foam squares to pop up the Jukebox.

I die cut alphabet dies in gold foil paper to create the lyrics 

to one of my favorite songs.

Thanks for stopping by.

Snarky Cowboy Costume Picture Card

 Hello, pilgrims! Today I'm sharing a snarky kind of Halloween card with you.

I noticed the Cowboy was actually wearing a horse costume and not riding an actual horse so, of course, I thought of Halloween.

I decided to go vintage, so I colored the image with Polychromos colored pencils and created a Polaroid photo, combining that with the farm-themed papers and the hilarious Banister of Life sentiment.

This reminds me of Jack Palance's character in City Slickers.  LOL.

I used a die-cut for the main focus of the card, and then stamped the saying, Dance Sing Love.

Harmony Small was stamped in the lower corner and colored.

Since Harmony has daisies, I put silk flowers on the card. Pink pearls are put in the center of each flower.

Harmony comes in 2 sizes, Large Harmony and Small Harmony.

I hope you like our little hippie and her saying.

Retro Gossip Girl Card

Are you a fan of retro/vintage artwork?  I love it.  There's just something about the 1940s-60s--at least as portrayed through the media. The old ads and Hollywood movies with their sassy characters are so fun.

I took inspiration from Graphic 45 paper that I had forgotten I had (what a surprise!).  Those dots and cherries were perfect to pair with Betty with Question Variations.

I embossed her on a sturdy vellum and fussy cut her out.  Then, I adhered her to the dotty red paper using liquid glue but shouldn't have put any glue under her fingertip. 

The dots on cherry paper aren't white white but a bit gray so I chose a coordinating paper from my stash, stamping the Don't Repeat Gossip sentiment onto the banner and adding a contrasting banner beneath.

Aye Matey Pirate Card

 Hello Stampers! Vicky is here today with a card for anyone who likes pirates or Jack Sparrow.

I started with white cardstock for my card, then mounted it on blue cardstock. As I was placing the white cardstock on the blue, my cat jumped onto my table and knocked my card crooked.

I stamped J. Sparrow and colored him with Copic markers.

Next, I stamped the Treasure Chest and colored that with Copic markers.

I added glitter dots for the gems in the treasure chest (the glitter doesn't show on the pic).

The sand is made by markers. Water and sky were sponged with ink.

I stamped the saying, You're A Treasure on tan cardstock.

Before I took the die off, I outlined it with Copic Glitter Pen.

A Minion's Greeting

Bello! Timothy here today sharing a fun Minion card.

I started with a white card base. Next I layered a piece of navy cardstock to the base.

I cut a piece of white paper and used that as a guide to layer the corner pieces 

of pattern paper that I added on top.

I glued down the banana paper and cut off the excess. I added the lighter blue piece next, then the yellow piece and lastly the darker blue piece and cut off the excess from the previous pieces of pattern paper. To cover the seams, I added strips of yellow cardstock.

I wrote the sentiment Bello in my own handwriting and cut around it leaving a small 

border. I colored and cut out the Minion and his hat from the Minion 1 stamp set 

and added him to the card. Have a fun day.

 Hello, Janet here with a card for the golfer in your life.

Using a small piece of white cardstock, I stamped the word golf and the tee with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the tee and embossed the cardstock to look like golf ball dimples. I die cut a strip of grass and attached it to the lower edge of the stamped cardstock. That cardstock is layered on burgundy paper. Then  I layered that onto printed design paper. The last layer is matching the burgundy paper before attaching it to the card.

Sweet Friendship Card

Hi, everyone!  Today's card was really simple to make but still packs a lot of detail (and cute details at that).

I first stamped and colored the Bee Girl image on a piece of Copic-friendly cardstock. Then, I masked the image and used a honeycomb stencil with a purple Catherine Pooler ink.

Originally, I had planned to place the white panel on a plain black card front, but decided it needed something more. I used a Lawn Fawn scalloped die to fancy it up and adhered the lot to a bright yellow cardstock. 

This was a great move, as now I had a colorful way forward with the sentiment die. So so cute!

Relaxing under the palm tree

 Janet here with refreshing summer card. This is where most of us dream of being.

On the first layer of white cardstock, using Memento Expresso Truffle Ink, a soft brush and a stipple brush I made the sandy beach. On another layer of white cardstock, using a soft brush, and blue ink I made the water and sky. Saving the upper left corner for a soft yellow sun made the same way.
