Funny T-Rex Dragon Card

I've always been fascinated by dinosaurs, and it's amazing we can theorize so much about their lives, given fossils and such.  Now, do we know for sure that a T-rex's arms were relatively short?  Yes, BUT--now hear me out--what if it had tentacle fingers or something that didn't survive the fossil record, and overall its arms were proportionally the same as its legs? Yikes!
When I saw the Dragon with Fire stamp, I immediately noticed its little arms and just had to pair it with the I'd Hug You sentiment.  LOL.  Too cute.  I stamped Grass Set of 2 with Catherine Pooler ink.  I used CP inks for the colorful sky as well. A strip of washi finished off the ground.

A Sweet Saying For A Friend

The ink is ideal for fine detail lines, making it perfect for words.

A Friendship Card

 Hello Stampers. Vicky here with a sassy friendship card.
My base card is deep purple, followed by white, then the striped paper.
I stamped the Lady with VersaFine Claire on white and layered her with the deep purple.
After I stamped the saying, Friendship Must Be Built, I cut it out with a die.
Before I removed the die, I outlined the inside of the die with a Copic Glitter Marker.

Hello Greeting Card

 Hello, Janet here with a card that could be used for any occasion for anyone.
Using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, I stamped two feathers on scrap paper, colored them, and cut them out. Next, using the Royal Texture Stipple Brush and Memento Expresso Truffle Ink, I added color to a piece of white cardstock. I attached the feathers, tied two pieces of brown string around them, and inserted 3 brown brads.  Hello is stamped in the lower left corner in VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink. On a larger layer of white cardstock,  I stamped the feathers randomly and colored them lightly. I layered that on brown paper and onto the card. The smaller top layer is then attached.

Cute Fishy Hello

Welcome, friends!  It's quite appropriate that the fish in my card is called "Smiley," don't you think?  Toni here with you today.

I stamped Smiley directly onto the card base then used a wavy stencil to create the water using my favorite color of Distress Oxide, Salvaged Patina. I like that it adds a bit of interest without making the card too fussy. 

Now I didn't bother masking the image as I knew the Copics I was using would cover any blue overage, but I did try to avoid overlapping.

The last step involved embossing the Swimming By sentiment on a black strip then laying that over a hello diecut that I sponged with Catherine Pooler inks.

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.  I'm also on IG

Summer Life

 Hi, Janet here with a refreshing card for summer. Soft waves at your feet and a tropical drink.
 Using a soft brush and blue ink on white cardstock, I made the sky. Next, I layered some paper that looks like sand, with the top edge torn for a rough effect. The water is handmade blue paper with some sparkly flakes in it. It looks like water glistening in the sun. On a scrap piece of cardstock, with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and the Life Is Too Short stamp, I stamped the beach items and sentiment. I colored all items with colored pencils and cut them out. I attached them to the front of the card.

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!

Humorous Cupcake Friendship Card

Any strawberry lovers out there?  They're my favorite fruit. Toni here with you today sharing a strawberry lemonade cupcake card.

And, yes, I do mean a strawberry lemonade cake with lemon frosting and strawberry topper. Yum!

Next, I stamped the Beautiful Cupcake sentiment using Versafine Clair Nocturne.

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.
