A Note to Lift Your Spirits

Hello, I hope you are having a good day. I am here today with a card that was made just for me and no particular challenge. Sometimes it’s good to just play with no perimeters and or guidelines and let the creative process go wherever it takes you.

Card Details: I just adore this Floating Bunny die set from Spellbinders and I thought she would look perfect in front of this fun stencil that I also really LOVE from Miss Ink Stamps. The stencil set is called-Cloud Hearts. Instead of finishing off the clouds with ink and a stencil, I chose to keep the heart in the middle as my focal point. I thought the bottom of the card looked a bit bare, so I decided to use the MFT Stitched cloud die to tie it all together. The sentiment I chose is from the Tweet Hello set, that’s also from MFT. The banner die is from Pink and Main. Instead of using a white gel pen to add highlights to my heart balloons and ruining it…LOL, cause I know I would, I thought, why not use the inside of the bunny ear and a Holly die. I LOVE how it worked out. I will be doing this from now on. The strings are made from gold paper. I used Oxide inks Worn Lipstick and Kitsch Flamingo to blend my heart clouds.

You are in luck! The floating bunny is on sale right now! You can find it HERE!

I certainly appreciate you coming by, I hope you find some time in your day to be creative.

Take care, Nanc’

Holey Sheet…

Hello, I hope you are having a good week! Today I am ignoring the fact that it’s 90+ degrees outside and I am jumping into Fall a bit with a Halloween card. I saw the sketch by Anne Marie over at The Paper Players and wanted to make sure to play along. I think Teal ghosts should be a thing, what about you? Too over the top?

Card Details: Cloud stencil is MFT. I used Oxide Inks for the background. Copics and Prismas to color my ghosts. The stamp set is one of my favs from Miss Ink Stamps called Boo Sheet. The stars are made from a Verve border die.

I hope however you spend your day it has a bit of creativity thrown in! Take care, Nanc’

Thinking of You

Hello, Happy Valentine’s Day to you! I may not have a Valentine card to share with you on this “Hallmark Day”, as my hubby refers to it, but I do have a card that exudes LOVE!

I am joining in the Happy Little Stampers-Anything Goes Stencil Challenge as I often do.

Card Details: Heart Stencils are from Miss Inks Stamps and I love them. The cloud stencil and stamp set are from MFT. I used Copics and a bit of Prismas to color. The greeting is from Sunny Studios and it’s from a Sympathy set called-Inside Greetings Sympathy.

I hope you have a fabulous day and no matter how you spend it, you feel loved!

Take care, Nanc’

Getting Into Halloween!

Hello, I hope you are doing well! I want to warn you that I have a new obsession! You are probably a bit relieved that I have put the leaves away for now. LOL However, I have a few cards with leaves that I have yet to share. What is my new obsession, you ask? These adorable new ghosts I just got from Miss Ink Stamps called BOO-Sheet! I have them linked up for you and it’s truly the cutest set with the funniest sentiments! The only thing that would be the icing on the cake is if they had die-cuts, but sadly they don’t. Although, I believe they are easy and totally worth fussy cutting! What is even kinda interesting is I am not a huge fan of Halloween, but this set just won me over! I definitely don’t like anything scary! Do you?

So far I have made three cards with hopes to make a few more before the holiday arrives. I decided to make a mini-slimline for this one. While I was purchasing the stamp set I had to get the stencil set that is called Cloud Hearts! Although I didn’t use it on this card, it is super cool too… so stay tuned! I think one of the funniest thing about this set is the iron burn you can put on the sheet. It comes with a sock too, but I didn’t use it this time! We all hate when the socks get stuck to the sheets when we pull them from the dryer. LOL

I went to Hobby Lobby the other day because hubby needed some paint, YAY! While we were there, I purchased some Black Soot Oxide ink, with hopes to darken the edges of my clouds and make more of a night time scene. Well, that turned into a hot mess and was quickly discarded in the circular file. As you can see I chickened out the second time, and didn’t have the heart to ruin these clouds.

Here is a close up so you can see my glittery stars I put in opposite corners of the card.

I am playing along with three challenges today. The TGIF Challenge where the word is Halloween and over at Tic Tac Toe Challenge I have chosen the row of Purple, Orange and Black. I have to also play along with Darnell over at NBUS, since this set is brand new to me!

Card Details: This is a mini slimline card. Boo Sheet-Miss Ink Stamps, Clouds were made with my MFT stencil. I used Oxide inks for the background. I used Nuvo glitter paste with my Tim Holtz star stencil and some Colored Pencil and or Copics to color my stamps. Lots of spatter in white, purple and black. I have glossy accents on the pumpkin and the lollipop.

I sure appreciate you coming by! Take care and Happy Creating! Nanc’
