Fairy Hugs Listen

   Sharing a card using Fairy Hugs stamps available at Fairy Stamper.

Fairy Hugs Stamp: Listen

Using an assortment of Tim Holtz products, I started by die cutting the planks.

Next I embossed 3 of the largest planks and glued them together for dimension.

Once dried, I used brown ink on the planks and wrapped twine around them.

Die cutting an assortment of leaves in varying colors, I assembled them and placed them around the twine, some above and some below.  For a pop of color, I die cut a red flower.

Creating a cream card, I added a striped panel then a layer of burlap.

The planks were then adhered on a slight angle and the phrase added to the corner.

Change up the sentiment and this would be a great masculine card.

Thanks for stopping by.

Fairy Hugs Happy Bear Set

    Sharing a card using Fairy Hugs stamps available at Fairy Stamper.

Fairy Hugs stamps: Birthday Bear Set

Cuttlebug Embossing Folder

Stamp by stamping the bear and adding the words to the right.

I added a balloon to the edge.

To die cut the image (and not lose the balloon), I fussy cut around the balloon and slipped the die cut behind it so it cuts the design but not the balloon.

I used some cupcake paper and added it to a yellow card.

Using an embossing folder I embossed white cardstock and matted it with yellow cardstock.

Assemble the pieces to create the base of my card.

The stamped image was matted with a larger die cut.

I added some limited color to the image then added it to the card with foam adhesives for dimension.

Thanks for stopping by.

Fairy Hugs Travel Dragon

 Sharing a card using Fairy Hugs stamps available at Fairy Stamper.

Fairy Hugs Stamps: Oriental Dragon Set, Fairy Poem

Create a background using the Japanese lanterns, stamping in black ink.

Color the lanterns with Copic Markers.

I wanted to "fill in" the background some more, so I stamped the Fairy Poem on top by first off-stamping it for a more subtle effect.

The dragon is sweet so I stamped her, masked her off and stamped the mountains in the background.  She was then colored with Copic Markers.

To ground here, I inked under her with brown ink.

The image was then die cut and matted with a larger die.

Travel was die cut and added to the card.

Thanks for stopping by.
