Simon Says: Food and/or Drink

Hello! I'm back today to take part in the latest Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: 

Simon Says: Food and/or Drink

These Mama Elephant's little dogs are so cute. My son and I coloured them and I fuzzy-cut the coloured images to dance around an elegant birthday sentiment from JustRite. I heat embossed the birthday sentiment with Ranger blue glitter embossing powder and love the effect. Unfortunately, I am unable to fully capture the glitter of the sentiment in my photo. 

I decided to create my own background with a diagonal strips background stamp and Hero Arts ombre ink. This was my first successful attempt at using the Hero Arts ombre ink pad and I must thank my WRMK stamping tool! 

Lastly, I used the same ombre ink to stamp a sentiment from Penny Black inside the card and stuck another cute dog next to the sentiment. 

Thanks for visiting my blog. Have a great time!

Up, Up and Away!

Hello! I'm back this time with a cute birthday card. This is a 6" x 6" shaker card which I made for a friend's birthday.

I die-cut two balloon shapes on the patterned paper and filled it with sequins of varying colors. I then popped the patterned paper with foam tape before adhering it to the pink card base. 

I coloured and fuzzy-cut these cute stamps from Mama Elephant and also used a sentiment from the same stamp set. I adhered the sentiment before the boy so that I can position him to stand on the sentiment. I then used some twine to tie the balloons to the boy and girl to make it seem like they are each holding on to a balloon. 

Lastly, I adhered another boy holding on to a balloon on the inside of the card. This boy looks like he is being carried away by the big balloon, which I find so cute!

Supplies used:

• Mama Elephant Carried Away
• MFT party balloons dies

That's all for this card. Thanks for visiting my blog!

Congrats Bear

This card is something I did on a whim and on the fly (not for any challenges).

I took two bears I had die-cut earlier and quickly coloured them up. I had the patchwork-like background and alphabet die-cuts in my stash and decided to combine one of the bears with what I had to create a congrats card.

Didn't turn out too bad eh? lol

Supplies used:

• Mama Elephant page huggers stamp set
• Altenew inline alpha die set

Have a good weekend ahead!

Wishing everyone a happy life.

Bit O' Green

 Hello! This card is one of my favorites cos it's floral-related. I just love, love floral theme. :D

Instead of the traditional red, I colored these poinsettia in pink and added white dots to enhance them. The copic markers used are:

R81, R83, R85

YG03, YG93, YG95

I fussy-cut the flowers and added them to a background paper in my stash. For my sentiment, I heat-embossed a greeting from the Mama Elephant 'Just a Note' stamp set.

Lastly, I added a frame and acetate, plus a few white sequins and white butterfly sticker to the background. 

I'm submitting this card for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Bit O'Green.

That's all from me. Thanks for stopping by. Adios!

Farewell & Best Wishes

I created this card (and another similar one below) when I heard that one of my hubby's long-time colleague is moving on. I used mama elephant's girlfriends stamp set but covered the hair to turn the two left figures into males.  

Entering this card for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Think Pink.

Hope you like my cards. Thank you for dropping by and have a good day (or night)!
