Snarky Day Drinker Pirate Card

It's summer and time to hit the water if you're able. Toni here serving as your captain today. 

I stamped and colored up J. Sparrow using Copics. I had originally planned to just use the Makes You a Pirate sentiment, but it seemed lonely on the card front. I love clean and simple, but sometimes a card calls for a bit more decoration, you know? 

So, I searched my stash and found a gold-flecked parchment-like paper that went well with the Treasure Map stamp, which balanced out the image nicely.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a great rest of your day! For a full list of products used and to see my other projects, just visit my blog, Frankie Helps Craft.

Missing You Pig Card

 Hello, Janet here with a heart-warming card for a friend.

I stamped the pig with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on a scrap piece of cardstock. I colored him with colored pencils and cut him out. Using a soft brush with yellow and blue ink on white cardstock, I made a sky background with sunshine in the upper left corner. The brick wall was made from an embossing folder and brown ink. I have the pig peeking over the wall. Miss You is stamped with VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink on a white scrap and die cut. I added a dragonfly brad in the upper right corner. The card front is layered on brown cardstock and then onto the card.

Extra Crispy Miss Prissy

My kid sister gave me the idea for this card. She's brilliant and so very creative!

I stamped Miss Prissy onto the card front so I'd know where I would be placing her after coloring and fussy cutting her out. 

I then used a honeycomb stencil with Catherine Pooler and Lisa Horton metallic inks.  I love how that blended and wish I could show you the shimmer, but you know how finicky cameras can be.

I added the die-cut sentiments and had Miss Prissy popping up from behind.  On the inside of the card I stamped the sentiment from the Miss Prissy set: "Live today like you're getting fried tomorrow."  Perfect!

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you have a great rest of your day! For a full list of products used and to see my other projects, you can visit my blog, Frankie Helps Craft.  Have a great rest of your day!

Paper-Pieced Clean and Simple Snarky Card

Hello, everyone!  Toni is back with you today, sharing a hilarious, clean, and simple card for any occasion.

I really enjoyed making this one, particularly choosing the "fabric" for Esther Variant's dress. 

I stamped and colored her with Copics using my MISTI/Memento/Versafine method.  I stamped her again on patterned paper and fussy cut the dress.  I colored up her necklace using red so I wouldn't have to trim out her necklace separately.

I stamped the FYI sentiment using Versafine Clair Nocturne and mounted the card front on a black base.

Fairy Friendship Card

Hello, friends!  Toni here with you, sharing a friendship card featuring Fairy Godmother.

I started by trimming the hot-foiled card front down and adhering it to a pink base.

Next I stamped Fairy Godmother using Memento Tuxedo Black in my MISTI, leaving it there while I colored it up with Copics, then restamping with Versafine Clair Nocturne.

I used a scalloped circle die to cut her out then positioned her so that she's pointing toward the Fluff Your Tutu sentiment which I had embossed in black.  Fun, right?!
