Classic Trucks card

 I don't know about you, but I often struggle with ideas for a masculine card. I love this classic truck from the Trucking Along set item # 162299. It is available for purchase in the online exclusives. I also love that the truck comes with a coordinating punch - super simple to create multiple. 

The truck is a two-step stamping, so the background color is from a stamp. The "best wishes" makes it a nice all occasion card. Simple, fun, masculine - ya!

Mother's Day Marigolds

Mother's Day Marigold Moments

A Mother's Day card featuring the Marigold Moments stamp set and dies. The flowers were stamped on Basic White CS in Tangerine Tango and the background was stamped in Powder Pink. The background stencil was inked on Basic White CS with Cucumber Green. The die cut leaves are from the Happiness Abounds stamp set and Blossoming Happiness Dies - they were colored with an aqua painter and Cucumber Green.

Beautiful Painted Poppies

Bringing out an older set that is so fun to use - Painted Poppies. I love the simplicity of the flowers, and the watercolor background splashes that add so much character. I colored the poppies with Stampin Blends alcohol ink pens. 

 

Marigolds of Blue

A simple and clean card using the new Marigold Moments bundle. I love how easy it is to create a colorful card in just moments with this set. The flowers were stamped in Pacific Point and Bashful Blue. The background EF is the old Decorative Dots.

Saltwater & Spruce Birthday

I'm loving the color combo iced spruce and saltwater taffy in the distress oxide inks. I stamped them on acetate, spritz with water and smooshed on the paper for the background colors. Then stamped the image from Nature's prints in the same colors. Used the french print from the old French Foliage set. Added some distress paste mixed with silver stickles and glitter using a Tim Holtz splatter template and added some to the die cut happy birthday. Also added some iced spruce to the edges with a blending brush. It was difficult to capture a photo that showed the glimmer of the Stickles...

 

Triple Greetings

More of the fun Hey Birthday Chick bundle. The sentiment is from Sweet Strawberry stamp set and the background squares are from Tasteful Touches. The chickens were colored with Ohuhu alcohol ink markers. The chickens are a great all occasion greeting!

 

Darling Donkey CASE

Another card using this Darling Donkeys saleabration set. Their expressions never get old! I CASE'd this card from an Artisan post from Janneke Dijkstra - de Jong.  

I love the simplicity of the card and the soft blended color in the background.
