For this bloghop, I decided to make an special card for my friend's son, who is a foxy smarty pans:



I used Mr. Foxy digital file from our sponsor and fussy cut around it after coloring it with some alcohol markers.  I added a graduation sticker to it and tata here is a graduation card. I backset it with some Typeset papers and canvas elements from CTMH.

I stamped a sentiment to a canvas element using archival ink (all from CTMH) and added it to inside of my card: 


My stamping wasn't perfect, but I quite happy with the shadow effect i got.:

To highlight the from canvas element against the similar color background, I used some micron marker outlining: 


I hope you enjoyed this fun and quite easy card.

Eureka Stamps Challenge #192 April Showers Bring May Flowers

The challenge theme this week at Eureka Stamps is 

April Showers Bring May Flowers



For this challenge, I decided to make a kind of unusual Mother's day card for my Mom. Even though, she lives in the same town, we get too busy and don't see each other as much as when they were living with us. 


I used my new trifold card die from Sizzix: 

Card, Triple Square Flip-its, the Brushed paper pack, CTMH, some alcohol markers and the printed digital images from Eureka stamps: 21201 Butterfly and Bluebonnet 

& 36303 Spring Set of 4 . I added some blings from Queen & Co.


 The sentiment is also from Eureka stamps, I just cut it using the little square die from the set to separate it in 3.
The other sentiment is one of the border-strips from this paper pack B&T.

I hope you enjoy this project and decide to join this challenge.

Best scrappy wishes for you

Vicky

Design Team: Way to go Graduation Card

Hi Scrappers,

This is post for Connie Can Crop show my latest creation for Connie's Dads & Grads challenge: 



For this card, I used I used our sponsor's, Polka Doodles, digital image: 

GRADUATION DAY - TWIGGY & TOOTS - DIGITAL STAMP CRAFT 

 But I made some changes to it, by a 3-D sticker of the diploma fussy cutting around the ribbon.

For the inside sentiment, I used  the free Blessings file, printed it on my laser printer and heat-foil it with blue.





I found the front to simple, so I added a CTMH Typeset complement canvas sticker to give it some charm.





I highlighted with a Wink of Stella marker some parts of the hat, the eye shadow and eyelashes. 

I hope you enjoy my simple card and decide to join this month's challenge:







Connie Can Crop Challenge #46

For this challenge, I decided to create a new type of card for me: Double pocket card, because I wanted to participate in the Between the Folds challenge and wanted to make a card for my Father for Father's day including bookmarks:



I used Polka Doodles digital image: HANDYMAN DAVE DIGITAL STAMP DOWNLOAD
I used some CTMH masculine paperback. retired a while ago. And This Father's day stamp for my stamped sentiment.
For the dangle on the bookmarks, I used Creative Embellishments chipboard wears and double heat embossed them. For the details, please see my following post.

The front of the tags: I used two freebie sentiments from Polka Doodles, and foil them using my laminating machine:


The back of the tags. the handy man again, and a sticker:


A closer look to the foil-sentiments:



I hope you enjoyed this cards as much as I did.
Have a wonderful week

Vicky
