Thank You

My first card features the April Card Kit of the Month. This kit is packed with lush selection of stamps, coordinating dies, standalone dies, cardstock, and embellishments!

For this card I stamped the large terrarium image in Copic-friendly Intens-ified Black Ink onto a 4.25″ x 5″ panel of Arctic cardstock. I colored the image in with a selection of Copic markers and then set the panel aside.

Next, I used the arched die to cut a window from a 4.25″ x 5.5″ panel of Dove White cardstock and I used the terrarium base die to cut the wooden base from the Fawn cardstock included in the kit. I also stamped and die cut the sentiment.

To assemble the card, I glued the window panel over the Arctic panel and then used foam tape to adhere the base of the terrarium. To finish, I adhered the sentiment and then glued the card front to a card base.

Hello

My second card features new leafy dies from the April Die Set of the Month.

For this card I used one of the dies to cut three vibrant leaves from an alcohol-inked panel in my stash. Next, I used the sentiment dies to cut the detailed sentiment from Coral cardstock and the shadow layer from Dove White cardstock and then I glued the pieces together.

To assemble the card, I used foam tape to adhere the leaves and sentiment to an arched piece of Dove White cardstock made with the arched die in the Card Kit of the Month. Then I used more foam tape to adhere the arched piece to a 4.25″ x 5.5″ panel of Paradise cardstock. To finish, I glued the card front to a card base.

  15. Your colouring on the first card is amazing! It reminds of the colouring in the old Stephen Cosgrove Serendipity series of books. It is like a whimsical warm hug!

  20. Thank you for sharing your cards with us. Your coloring is awesome on your first card. I love the idea of using a alcohol inked panel for the second card. It made the card so unique.
