Keep On Rocking

Welcome to Delightful Thursday at Digital Delight. For this week all the designers have created so many stunning cards to add to your inspiration, so stop by and see all the wonderful cards. Sorry I have not been around much, I have had a lot of cards to get done and we have had some sad things happen and some happy things happen in the family, so life has been taking a lot of my time. So I hope all is well with everyone's family!

The images I used are Conductor Colin and Groove On sentiments. I did make this for my grandson (Aiden) he plays the piano and the violin and he has a concert coming up in May.  Thought this would make an interesting easel card.

The only die cut used was spellbinder floral oval. The punches are from stampin up called 1 1/2 inch scallop circle, 2 inch scallop circle, photo label, decorative label. Viva pearl pen color blue. 

The paper is from recollections music note. The blue ribbon is offray 1/4 inch. Roses are from Wild Orchid.

To make the piano area I used black and white glossy paper. Cut the white keys 3/5 inch by 2 inches and used a corner rounder on one side. For the black keys cut them 1/2 inch by  1 1/4 inch and used the corner rounder one one side and used mounting tape for the black keys.

These are the copic markers used to color the image. Here is the close up of my image.

Sitting so pretty

Welcome to Delightful Thursday at Digital Delight. All of the designers have some wonderful cards for you to see for this week so we would love for you to stop by and see all there creations.

The image I wanted to use is called Flower power daffy, she is just adorable. My sentiment is from Groove on sentiments. I sure used a lot of die cut this time, it was fun creating a scene. For making the card spellbinders grand labels 23, several of the sizes. The paper is from paper studio. Cut the image out with my silhouette cameo. The smallest grand label 23 I created a scene using a home made template and a sponge to create the sky, the color used was memento ink summer sky. For the green (grass) used memento bamboo leaves ink.  Taping the layers together and adding the grand oak die from memory box, the leaves from impression obsession die 066-c, the yellow flowers are a punch called flower #2 from punch a bunch. Added to the centers stickles glitter glue color cinnamon.

Used foam dots to give a 3D look to the fence and daffy. The fence is a magnolia doohickey lovely fence. Martha Steward grass punch. The tiny flowers in front are from poppy stamps called wild flower. The 6 red flower are metal and added some stickles glitter to the center. Flower soft mixed colors added a little to the sides and bottom to hide the white edges, I think that worked pretty good.

This is what I did to the inside. These are the copic markers used to color my image.

Here is the close up of daffy.

The challenge over at Delightful challenges is all about  COLOR .

Quiet times

I’m back with the Cards for Men challenge #8 and it is anything goes but has to be for a man or a boy card. I have not made a scenic card in a long time, I love to make them.

I first cut out my card stock with spellbinders die labels 5. I left the die on the front of the cut, on the front I used removal tape on the edges so it would stay in place and add the inks to the sky and the ground area. For stamping the stamps I added post it notes on the white area so I would not stamp in that area. Punched out a 1 inch circle from the post it notes. Using different sponges for each color of ink. The inks used for the sky are memento cantaloupe ink add a little and now put the 1 inch circle on add some more of the cantaloupe trying not to let the circle move now add the tangelo memento ink to the top edges. The grass area used memento bamboo leaves ink. I finished it off with some memento tuxedo black only on the bottom. After I got all the stamps done I removed the post it notes papers and the circle and this is what I got…

The stamps I used are from stampscapes man with boy, birds, and cows. The scenic background is from The angel company from the set mountain scene. Rounded all the corners with the zutter round it all.

Inside add another spellbinders label 5, sponged the edges with memento cantaloupe ink. Magnolia doohickeys leaf and memory box pepita border. No copic markers this time. close up.

Thanks for stopping by. Happy crafting.
