Happy Card Maker

Sunday, February 21, 2010


Before I talk about todays card, I need to answer some questions about my last posted card "Cabin is where the Heart". The card was made up of five (5) stamps from "Raisinboat". No, I did not hand draw the scene, I wish I was that good.

Todays card was made with an image from "The Angel Company". The stamp set is called "Everything is Blooming".
The image was colored with Copic Markers, then cut out with a Spellbinder die then the mat was cut once again with the same Spellbinder die, just the next size up. The mat was then embossed with a Cuddlebug Embossing Folder called Swiss Dots. One of my favorites.


I did not have any glitter brads for the center of the flower. So, I used a Marvy Glue Pen to cover the brad then dipped it in glitter.
The borders on the patterned paper was punched with a Martha Stewart border punch.
Now for the card;

The colors used for this card were;

Skin; E0000,E000, E00
Dress; RV00, RV02,RV06
Belt & Boots; B0000,B02,B05
Flower; Y19
Chick; Y08, Y11
Hair; E25,E30,E35
The paper used for the image and the saying was Cryogen White. It is an interesting paper in that it has a sparkle built into it. It works very well with the Copic Markers. I got the paper from "PaperCuts".
That's all for now.

Have a GREAT DAY!!!
