My Winter Sweethearts Card

My Design Team Card
My Winter Sweethearts Design Team Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Winter Sweethearts Card as my last Guest Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design. I am so excited that I have been asked to become a permanent Design Team Member with them starting in March! Yippee!

For my card, I used Winter Sweethearts and coloured them with my Copic markers to match my paper in purples and taupes. I coloured the girl in purples since it is one of my favourite colours. I coloured the boy with matching hat/jeans and boots/sweater since my hubby is all about matchy-matchy! LOL! Wouldn’t they make a great Valentine, Anniversary, Christmas, anything love card, but I made them my winter sweethearts!

My Penguin Love Valentine Card

My Penguin Love Valentine Card

Hello Crafty Friends! Happy Valentine’s Day! It’s Laurie here! I am so excited to be joining Conie Fong Art & Design as a Guest Design Team Member again for February with my My Penguin Love Valentine Card! For my February GDT card, I am using 2 different stamps. The top penguin is called Penguin Heartstrings bottom penguin is called Penguin Bundle of Love. Aren’t they just the cutest!

Close Up of Penguin Heartstrings

I coloured both of these stamps with my Copic markers in the traditional Valentine colours of pink and red. I then, decided that I wanted both of them on the same card. So, I went with a slimline card with lots of hearts for Valentine’s Day! For the sentiment, I used markers to colour just the part of the stamp that I wanted and then “huffed” (technical term lol) on it to activate the ink. For a bit of sparkle, I added glossy accents to the penguins’ beaks, feet and the heart that the Penguin Bundle of Love is holding. I also added Star Dust Stickles to the heartstrings of the other penguin. One final touch is a scattering of Red Rhinestones.

Molly’s Valentine Card

My Guest Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design
My Guest Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am so excited to be joining Conie Fong Art & Design as a Guest Design Team Member again for January! For my first GDT card for January, I created Molly’s Valentine Card using Molly’s Basket of Love – with headband. This stamp comes in a set of three digital stamps including Molly’s Basket of Love and Molly Fairy.

I have been wanting to colour this sweet image for a while and thought that with Valentine’s Day next month, she would be perfect! Since she is a Valentine card, I coloured her with my Copic markers in pinks, reds and browns to match my paper. I pulled out my Be Mine Stitched Dies for the large heart and the cluster of smaller ones. For embellishments, I went into my stash of Stampin’ Up! trinkets for the key and heart lock and tied them with red/pink/white twine to a wooden heart. The twine ends were shaped into a heart since you can never have too many hearts on a Valentine card! I just love the ribbon with its soft curves and lacey details. A scattering of red rhinestones and Clear Wink of Stella on all of Molly’s hearts and the bow on her basket, add a bit of sparkle.

My Blowing Wishes Your Way Card for Conie Fong Art & Design

Happy New Year’s Eve! Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! For my last card of 2020, I am sharing my Guest Design Team Inspiration for Conie Fong Art & Design using Dandelion Wishes. This sweet fairy is “blowing wishes your way” for a wonderful 2021!

I had so much fun colouring her with my Copics markers in bright and bonny colours for a change from the Christmas colours that I have been using lately! This digital stamp can be used for so many different occasions, but I decided that I wanted to create a New Year’s Eve card. I knew that I wanted to use some new Stampin’ Up! products that I received that tied in the dandelion theme nicely like the Designer Series Paper and the Dies!

Let’s Rejoice Christmas Card

My Let's Rejoice GDT Card
My Let’s Rejoice Christmas Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here again! I am sharing my Let’s Rejoice Christmas Card as my Guest Design Team Inspiration for Conie Fong Art & Design using the beautiful Angel Prayers. I created a slimline card for my Holy scene.

The Details of My Card

This digital stamp is perfect for so many occasions like birthday, sympathy, get well and thinking of you. However, for my card, I wanted her to be the Christmas Angel from the Nativity. So, I coloured her with my Copic Markers in Christmas colours.

I use the Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen on her wings and smooshed the lines with my finger before they dried. This gives the lines a softer look, but still allows a flowing movement of her wings. I also used the same pen on all the gold accents to make them shimmer. Finally, I added Clear Wink of Stella on her wrap. You can never have too much sparkle where an angel is concerned!

Instead of a night scene, I decided to create a sunrise with the dawning of the birth of Jesus Christ. For my sunrise, I used my Distress Oxide Inks and my Mini Blending Tool starting with Fossilized Amber at the base of the watercolor paper, followed by Worn Lipstick, Wilted Violet, Broken China and Faded Jeans.

Once the colours were blended, I used my Splatter Tool dipped in Frost White Shimmer Paint and then in water to create the sky.

For my Nativity scene, the die I used comes as border. So, a few snips here and there and add my Sahara Sand dune to create my layered scene with lots of dimensionals between the layers.

The Gold Foil stars were from the Silent Night Dies from Creative Expressions. The North Star was snipped from the largest die in the set.

To finish the card, I used a Gold Foil mat followed by a Stitched Cherry Cobber mat.

Sally’s Christmas Friends Card

Sally’s Christmas Friends Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here again! I am sharing my second November Guest Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the very festive Sally’s Christmas Friends.

I had so much fun colouring with my Copic Markers this sweet tree decorating scene of Sally and her two little helpers! We look forward to decorating our Christmas tree each year. Every time we travel, we buy an ornament for our tree. When we decorate the tree it brings back so many wonderful memories!

I added lots of sparkle with stickles to the white trim of Sally’s clothes, the birds’ hats and the snow. I also used Shimmery Crystal Effects on all the ornaments to give them a glossy shine! For the Clear Wink of Stella, I added it to all the ribbons including the tree topper! You can never have too much sparkle for a Christmas card!

I love the pops of blue from this otherwise traditional coloured card! It ties in nicely with the snowflakes from Lost & Found Christmas Paper Pad and the blue snowflake embellishment.

Don’t you love the felt mittens! I just had to pull them out of my stash for this card! For my ornaments on my tree die, I used red rhinestones and coloured clear ones with my Copics in the blue to match Sally’s tree. A gold glimmer paper star tops it with even more sparkle!

My Molly’s Fairy Christmas Gift

My Molly’s Fairy Christmas Gift Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here with My Molly’s Fairy Christmas Gift card! I am so excited to be joining Conie Fong Art & Design as a Guest Design Team Member for the next two months!  I love her digital stamps! For my first GDT card, I am using the beautiful Molly’s Fairy Gift.

I had so much fun colouring Molly and her friend with my Copic markers! I wanted to create a shabby chic card, but with lots of sparkle and shimmer! This. was achieved by sponging the edges of my image with Vintage Photo ink and then heat setting some Shabby White Embossing Powder which has gold flecks in it. I further accented the flecks with gold foil die cut poinsettias and gold glitter enamel dots. To add more sparkle, I used red rhinestones and lots of Stardust Stickles! Don’t you just love the poinsettia punch flowers and leaves. They really add a nice dimension to the card! As my card says, Tis’ the Season!
