My Angel Messenger Card

My Design Team Inspiration Card
My Angel Messenger Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my first Design Team Inspiration Card for June using the sweet digital stamp Angel Messenger by Conie Fong Art & Design. This is such a pretty image and can be used for so many occasions like Birthday, Sympathy, Get Well, Thinking of You and so on.

For my card, I had some leftover paper from the Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps 2021 Spring Mini Retreat Weekend that I really loved with soft pinks, greens and purples. So, I used that to pull out my colours for my Copic markers. Once I coloured her wings, I used Star Dust Stickles to make them sparkle. Of course, all Angels have radiant wings! I love this paper so much that I used it for all my dies cut pieces including the bird and branches. The paper pad even has beautiful tags. I couldn’t resist fussy cutting one out and adding it with a pretty bow. A perfect setting for my die cut bird! A scattering of rhinestones and sequins were the only embellishments that my card needed.

Twirly-Whirly Birthday Card

My Design Team Card
Twirly-Whirly Birthday Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Twirly-Whirly Birthday Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Paper Nest Dolls using the digital stamp Emma with Pinwheel.

I coloured this cutie with my Copic markers to match my pinwheel paper. This paper was perfect for my card! I love the pinwheel Sizzlits that I had in my stash. If you have a pinwheel, you need to have a slider to make it move! And, since you need room to twirl your pinwheel, I made a mini slimline card! The sentiment was too long for my card. So, I snipped it on wonky angles and adhered them haphazardly to mirror my fun card.

Did you know that you can currently (until June 6/21) get this digital stamp for free over at the Kit and Clowder Facebook Group:

Just Saying Hello Card

My Design Team Card
My Just Saying Hello Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Just Saying Hello Card as my second May Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design.

For my card, I used the sweet Sophie and Kitty/Puppy Bundle and coloured her with my Copic markers. I couldn’t resist colouring all her luscious curls red! Did you see her adorable puppy too! The sentiment is from the Maisy and Cory Mice Bundle. I thought having it layered into the heart made it pop out as if Sophie is saying “Just saying hello!” to the recipient.

I had a paper pad of banners that I thought would provide a perfect backdrop for her! It made a large 5” x 7” card but set her of really nicely. Since I wasn’t planning to use it as a banner, I tied some Gorgeous Grape sheer ribbon between the holes for the banner part. For my embellishments, I used some sequins, bakers twine and the cutest dog bone trinket! I also added rhinestones which I coloured with my Copic marker to match my card. Clear Wink of Stella was used on the flowers of her dress, hair bow and shoe bows to add a bit of subtle shimmer.

I Love Paris Card

My Design Team Card I Love Paris
I Love Paris Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here sharing my last Design Team card for Rachelle Anne Miller Creative Studios. I have decided to step down from the Design Team to spend more time with my family. For my I Love Paris Card, I decide to use my favourite RAM stamp called ‘Paris’ Digital Stamp. Nothing is more beautiful than Paris any time of the year, even when it’s raining! We love to visit Paris as much as possible and have been there 4 times so far! In fact, my character as a Design Team Member had a little Eiffel Tower on her sweater. Isn’t she a cutie!

Laurie's RAM Design Team Character

For my card, I knew that I wanted to use the Letters From Paris Paper Pack from Wild Rose Studio. So, I coloured with my Copic markers to match the colours of my paper. The Amour word was perfect since Paris is known as the City of Love! Don’t you just love the Eiffel Tower charm with the linen thread tied in a bow to the flag! I used clear epoxy raindrops interspersed between the raindrop that sparkle from my Gelly Roll Pen because even the rain in Paris is magical!

Wish Upon a Star Card

My Wish Upon a Star Design Team Card
My Wish Upon a Star Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Wish Upon a Star Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Paper Nest Dolls using the sweet digital stamp Minnie Amara. You can buy this stamp in either rubber or digital if you join the Paper Nest Dolls Stamp Club. I am a big Disney fan and when I saw that you can get the cutest Disney inspired stamp by Paper Nest Dolls, I just had to join it! 

Disney World 2018
Me at Disney World 2018

I had a lot of fun colouring Minnie Amara with my Copic Markers even though I found it challenging to colour her skin and hair.

The Details of My Card

For my card, I thought a shaker card in the shape of an admission ticket would be so fun! I used my Silhouette Cameo to find a ticket shape and downloaded the file. This shape came with a number of other ticket designs, but I loved the Magic Kingdom Castle shape at one end. Since I didn’t have any Disney confetti, I downloaded a Mickey head SVG file and cut some out on my Silhouette Cameo. I die cut the Stitched Minnie Bows from Stamp AnnieThing’s Magical Celebrations Grab and Go Box using a piece of paper from the paper pads with a red background and white dots that matched my colouring. I also threw in some red, black and gold sequins and stars that I had in my stash. Did you know that Paper Nest Dolls has Krafty Bling which includes a Magical Mix and Mouse Ears. I will have to get some for my next card!

I love the Magical Adventure 2 and Wish Upon a Star paper pads by Echo Park. Perfect for my Disney themed card! I fussy cut a couple of tickets from the paper that was leftover when I used it for the base of my shaker window. The Do You Believe was a tag in the paper pad and the wish upon a star was from the matching Ephemera.

My Santorini Window Card

My Welcoming Window Card
My Santorini Window Card

Today I am sharing my Santorini Window Card using the Welcoming Window Bundle by Stampin’ Up! I love that you can make different cards depending on which sentiment you use. This one is a birthday card, but I also made a Mother’s Day card for my mom too.

When I saw this bundle, I immediately thought of creating a window that shows the inside of the card. I went with bright colours that were inspired by a photo from our Greece trip to Santorini with the bright pink bougainvillea flowers against a white building. 

Santorini
Pink Bougainvillea Flowers in Santorini

I stamped directly onto the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper that carried over to the new Annual Catalogue. The white stucco sheet of DSP was perfect for my card. The shutters and window frame just had to be in Pacific Point since that colour reminds me of Santorini! To create my window, I used a piece of wind sheet between the window panes. I even used the part of the DSP that I cut of the window on the inside of my card. Then you would not see the glue that I used to adhere the Pacific Point frame on the front.

Inside of my Birthday Card

For the inside, I stamped my images centred on the page so that I can be seen through the window.

Stack of Sweet Wishes Card

My Design Team Card for Copic for Alle
My Stack of Sweet Wishes Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Stack of Sweet Wishes Card as my Guest Design Team Card for Copic for ALLE. I was so excited to be asked to be on their GDT again for the month of May. Their Color Challenge for May is using E (Earth Tone) Copic markers. I use Es in so much of my colouring. They really are a staple for me!

For my card, I pulled out Swiss Pixie Cupcake Birgitta by C.C. Designs Rubber Stamps. A friend, Nathalie, asked me to show her some colouring techniques and I thought this image would be a good one for us to colour together.

I showed her skin blending using E Copic Markers (E000/00/21/11/04/R20). Here is a collage of the skin colouring steps:

Next we worked on her hair using E Copic Markers (E18/E15/E13/E11). This is the collage for the step to colour the hair:

Hair Colouring with Copic Markers

For my card, I created a mini slimline card for my sweet Birgitta! Since she is sitting, I placed her on a cake pedestal. I thought it would be a fun way to show her off. I use Galvanized Metallic paper for the pedestal. The flag banners were cut from the DSP so that they would match the other elements. A scattering of sequins adds some birthday festiveness to the card!

My Secret Garden Card

My Secret Garden Design Team Card
My Secret Garden Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Secret Garden Card as my Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design. This pretty digital stamp is called Sweet Annabelle. She is perfect for Mother’s Day, a birthday, thinking of you and so many other card occasions!

I love the Secret Garden Paper that I have in my stash and have been keeping it for a special card. So, I decided to use it for my card and coloured Annabelle with my Copic Markers in softs pinks, blues and purples to match. I added Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen to the dots on her apron and on her hair bow for a little bit of sparkle.

For the card base, I embossed a die cut piece of Highland Heather with the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder to give Annabelle a subtle floral backdrop. From that I layered the leaves so that they are wrapped around the tag that came with the paper pad. A few hydrangeas made with a punch tie in the colours of my colouring. For the pearl flower centres, I coloured them with my Y17 Copic markers to match the flowers in her basket.

April Showers Card

My April Showers Card
Avery in Rain Poncho

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my April Showers Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Paper Nest Dolls using the cute digital stamp Avery in Rain Poncho.

April showers really does bring May flowers! May is here and the flowers are blooming! So, I couldn’t resist colouring Avery in her sweet rain poncho and her little friend with my Copic markers! I have had her coloured for a long time sitting on my desk waiting to be placed on the perfect card and I thought Spring is the perfect time for her!

For my card, I decided to create a circular card instead of my typical square/rectangle ones. A circular card suited the Sending Flowers Dies with its vignette of tulips and flowers in the bright spring colours. The Pleased as Punch DSP with the raindrops was perfect for my background of my card. I added a few more raindrops with the Glitter and Clear Epoxy Shapes to make the rain sparkle. More sparkle was added with the rhinestones in the flowers centers. I added Glossy Accents to her boots since all goloshes are wet from splashing in puddles!

Welcome Spring Card

My Design Team Card
Welcome Spring Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Welcome Spring Card as my Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design. This digital stamp is called Bunny Tulips and comes with the bunny in the flower pot and two sentiments.

Spring has finally arrived in my part of the world! The tulips and daffodils are blooming, and the birds are singing. I love Spring and the renewal of life that it brings!

For my card, I coloured this sweet stamp with my Copic markers in Spring like colours of pink, yellow and blue. Did you know that you can have pink and yellow snails! Lol! I love how the bunny is peeking out of the flower pot! I used Glossy Accents on the pot to give it a shine and Stickles on the butterfly to make her sparkle!

For my embellishments, I had some paper tulips that were very long. So, I sniped them down and wrapped them like a bouquet you get in the store. I used some paper ribbon that I die cut into a square for the wrap. A piece of raffia tied around the bundle finishes this lovely bouquet off. I added a paper butterfly that matches the fence which was die cut using the Picket Fence Die-namics. I coloured a few of the pearls to match my card and added a few uncoloured ones to match the paper butterfly.

My Sweet Maisy Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Sweet Maisy Card as my Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design. This digital stamp bundle is called Maisy and Cory Mice Bundle and comes with six images including two mice and 4 sentiments.

I just coloured Maisy with my Copic markers for my card thinking it would make a sweet Mother’s Day card. My cosmos flowers came out vibrant and bright to create a nice cheery card. I used Granny Apple Green and Melon Mambo Designer Series paper from the Brights Collection by Stampin’ Up! to match my bright and cheery colours. The doily I found loose in my stash and thought it created a perfect backdrop for Maisy. The hearts were punched out from the Please as Punch Designer Series Paper to be layered behind Maisy. I love the sentiments that come with the bundle and thought that “Just saying hello” could be used for so many different occasions. To add some bling to my card, I wanted to use some rhinestones but tie in the pink. So, I coloured them with my RV 19 Copic marker. Voila! Instant matching embellishments!

My Happy Earth Day Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Happy Earth Day Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Paper Nest Dolls using the cute digital stamp Ellie With Flower Pot.

For those that don’t know what Earth Day is, it is an annual celebration that honours the achievements of the environmental movement and raises awareness of the need to protect Earth’s natural resources for future generations. Earth Day is celebrated on April 22.

The world is our home and every year I like to support Earth Day in my own little way! I thought Ellie With Flower Pot was perfect for my Earth Day Card! So, I coloured her with my Copic markers.

Since this is an Earth Day card, I used recycled paper including some cardboard that I repurposed. The Green Stack is 70% recycled paper. The piece behind Ellie has such words as Wonderful World, Go Green, Blue Skies, Environment, Earth, Green Trees, etc. Perfect for an Earth Day card! The cardboard was some that I had kicking around the house. I pulled it apart and kept the middle corrugated part that I tore to fit my card. I just loved using all these recycled bits for my card!

The world dies and leafy vines really add to the Earth Day theme. For the sentiment, I stamped each letter individually in a haphazard way. I love the rustic feel of the blocked letters!

My Mother’s Day Card

My Design Team Card for Mother's Day using Kangaroo Digital Stamp by Rachelle Anne Miler Creative Studios
My Mother’s Day Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here with My Mother’s Day Card using the digital stamp called ‘Kangaroo’ Digital Stamp by Rachelle Anne Miller Creative Studios. Mother’s Day is just around the corner and this stamp is perfect for that special mom!

I coloured this sweet digital stamp with my Copic markers in Spring like colours. Don’t you just love how the little Roo is hanging out of his mummy’s pouch! Sneak peek…the Designer Series Paper I used is from the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue that starts in May 2021! It was sitting on my desk with it’s pretty colours just begging to be used! Lol! The butterfly from the Brilliant Wings Dies was die cut from the DSP as well. The Pool Party Sheer Ribbon  tied in a pretty bow went perfectly with the DSP! The sentiment was embossed in white and then die cut with a scallop die from the Layering Circle Dies. A scattering of rhinestones, Wink of Stella and Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen add some sparkle to the card.

My Some Bunny Card

My Design Team Card
My Some Bunny Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Some Bunny Card as my Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design. This card uses 3 different digital stamps including Bunny Daffodil Bundle which includes 9 stamps and Daffodil Flowers Bundle which includes 7 stamps.

I thought it would be cute to create a slimline card and use the Fields of Daffodils with the sweet Bunny Daffodil in front almost like he has picked those flowers just for you!

I decided to colour my daffodils in both yellows and white/yellows to give a variation to my field of daffodils. Daffodils can come in many different colours, but these are the colours that I have in my garden. My favourite is the white with yellow centres! To fit my field onto the slim line base, I cut it in half so that there is a slight gap which you can’t see behind the bunny. So, it looks like a continual field of daffodils! I did the same thing with the 6” pretty paper that you can just see peeking out as a border around the daffodils. This saves paper and you can’t see the gap hidden behind the bunny. A win-win situation! A couple of die cut butterflies with rhinestones and some epoxy water drops is all the embellishments that this card needed.
