A Designed 2 Delight share...

Today, I am sharing another Designed 2 Delight card using one of the July new release images.  


I used the Sick Chick image with the Sick sentiment.

There is still time to play in our Color Combo Challenge.

Enjoy your Saturday and go out and play!

Get Whale Soon

This is sentiment is certainly meant for me.  I have been suffering through a horrible sinus infection for the past week and really want to feel well again soon.

My share today is for my DT card for the The Cutting Cafe and this week we are showcasing the Under the Sea printable stamp set.  I chose to use the cute Whale and sentiment "Get Whale Soon", mainly because I was sick and secretly wishing I would magically feel better after making my card and sending it to myself :)


I decided to make a quickie card using the whale, using a little sketch I made. I colored the whale with my Copic makers, still learning how they blend and trying the different techniques.  I am really hoping to treat myself to a birthday gift and take a Copic class in Oregon in the month of July.

Anyway, I used my Coluzzle circle template to cut this little whale out, layered ontop of midnight blue card, with two other pattern pattens in shades of blue. I thought the one paper would be fun to use as it had some stitching and a wave pattern that reminded me of water. (Paper from Close to My Heart).

Finishing touches, include yellow twine with the sentiment banner hanging from the bow and 3 blue buttons.

Enjoy your day!

Get Well Soon!

The sentiment "Get well soon!" is for everyone in my household.  We have been sick with head colds that continue to linger after two weeks.  And I had three days for jury duty this week as well.  I feel like I haven't been in my craft space like forever and really wanted to stamp today.  I did manage to complete one card for the Freshly Made Sketches #24 based on the sketch below.


To make this card:

I used A2 white card for my base.  I trimmed the red w/ white polka dot patterned paper to 5-1/4" x 4" and another pieced to 1-1/2" x 4-1/4".  I trimmed the red, white and blue patterned paper to 5" x 3-3/4".  I also trimmed blue cardstock to 1-3/4" x 4-1/4".  I used a piece of paper doily for the bottom edge.

Cartridges:

Elegant Edges - page 33 <Doily> oblong frame cut on blue cardstock at 4" and shadow feature on white cardstock.   I run the frame piece through my Cuttlebug with the swiss dot folder.  Stamp the sentiment in the center.  I used a stamp from Fiskars with red ink.

To complete the card:

Layer all paper as shown in the photo, working back to front.  My finishing touches are red buttons with knotted floss, a blue crocheted flower and a bow made with bakers twine.
