Cow Card With A Little Humor

Humorous Cheeky Squirrel Card

Hello, friends!  Toni here sharing a humorous, naughty squirrel Valentine/birthday card.

I think the Chuck the Squirrel image is super cute and had planned to use the sentiments included with the Set of 3 but decided to instead use As You Get Older.

I embossed the card front in 3D hearts and lightly sponged over that with a darker green.  I sponged the pink leafy border in a darker pink, too.

I colored up Chuck with Copics and adhered him to the card front.  I had planned to an acetate backing for the sentiment but instead used a fussy cut layer of vellum.

Grumpy Kitty Cat Lover Valentine Card

Hello, friends! Toni here, sharing a cat lover's Valentine's card.

I'm a huge cat lover and had such a great time coming up with this card.  

I started by choosing a variety of coordinating cat-themed patterned papers which happened to work well with my "middle finger cat" washi.

Next I colored up the Kitty Crabby Walter image pulling grays from the background. Then I stamped the I Hate You sentiment on a tag, layering a second tag beneath and tying them together with a bold black and white twine.

Elegant Lady Card

Hello Stampers. 

Vicky is here to share a card with an elegant Deco lady that can be used for many occasions.  

I stamped the Deco Women and colored her with Copic markers, then I fussy cut her out.

The frame is a die-cut from my stash, which I mounted on gold cardstock. I added the lady to the gold cardstock. 

I had a white ribbon, which I colored in the middle for the top ribbon, and the sides to the bottom ribbon were the same blue I used on the lady. I wrapped the ribbon around the brown cardstock.

I mounted the frame with Deco Lady on brown textured cardstock. 

I had some flowers that I also colored with the marker.

I used a button for the middle of the flower, which I also colored.

The center of the flower is a brad, which I attached to the flower.

Hope you like the card.
