Colorful Coffee Rings

 

I am still having fun playing with the Ken Oliver Color Bursts.  They sure make bright and beautiful backgrounds.

I created the background  using the Memory Box Texture Drip Rings stencil  along with the Ken Oliver  color burst in Orange and Lemon Yellow.    Some of my Ultramarine color bursts was already on the paper when I started and that is where the green color came from.   I turned the stencil over and spritzed it with water, then I added the color bursts and let it run on the stencil, then I turned the stencil back over and put it on  water color paper.   The color bursts sure make some amazing backgrounds.

I stamped coffee beans  on the  card , colored it with a marker and added the sentiment.  I wanted to add something a little extra without covering up my color bursts creation, so I added some

black rhinestones.

I used a yellow card base and added a layer of black before adding the finished water color paper to it.

The inside of the card says, "I forgot your birthday". 

This card is also for the Free 4 All challenge this week.

Thanks, for coming by today and taking a look at my card.  Have a great weekend.

Classy Cards N Such Challenge #109 - Turkey Time

Hello, card making friends.  It is Shirley posting today and I have a card I made for the  

Classy Cards N Such #109 turkey challenge to share with you.  It won't be long and we will be preparing our shopping list to make a fabulous Thanksgiving Dinner.  This little turkey on the card asks you to "Eat Ham, Please.  ~grin~

I started the card with a brown card base.  I used the Spellbinders A2 Scalloped Borders Three on the white card stock to make the decorative border.    

I took a piece of Mandarin Curious Metallic card stock and embossed it using the Dots  embossing folder.  I cut brown and white circle scallops and placed the turkey (sticker) in the center.   I popped it up on the circle using Joy Foam Dots Large.

I hope you will start on your turkey card and upload it to the blog for all of us to see.

A Starry Night

Here is a card I made for Classy Cards N Such blog.   I made a card using my favorite colors,  I like non traditional colors for my Christmas cards.  I recently made another card with this layout, but I have changed my colors up and made this one as a night scene.

I started with a pink card base.  I added a layer of silver and black.  I cut the pink Christmas tree using the Memory Box Frosted Christmas Tree.  I used a circle punch and punched circles using black/silver card stock to make ornaments for my tree..  I attached the ornaments  with
Art Institute Dries Clear Adhesive.  I adhered the tree to the black card stock.

Next I used a little star punch to make the pink and silver stars.  The silver star at the top of the tree was made using the Memory Box Over the Moon and Stars die.

I used Versamark to stamp the sentiment  on pink card stock and used silver embossing powder.  The sentiment is from the Impression Obsession Christmas Sentiments.

Thank you, for joining us today.

Elegant White and Gold Christmas Card

Here is a card I made for the Classy Cards N Such challenge #108 to make a friend card and add a squirrel or a bird.

I started my card with a white card base.  I cut another white layer and embossed it using the
Darice Doily Lace embossing folder.

Next I chose two stamps to stamp my sentiment. One of them had My Friend on it and the other one had Merry Christmas.   I aligned them on my block  and stamped them in Versamark and followed with Gold Detail Embossing Powder.   This is a great way to stretch your stamps.

I used the Impression Obsession Pine Branch  die to cut the white pine branches.  I attached them to my card using Art Institute Dries Clear Adhesive.

I used Gold shiny card stock to cut my birds using Bird Song Dies  Secret Treasures Collection.  I attached the gold birds to the branches, also using the Art Institute Dries Clear adhesive.

My finishing touch to my card was to make a bow with  gold ribbon and using the Bow Easy.  This is a great tool for me because I cannot tie pretty bows.

I hope you will join us for the challenge this week.  Beverly always has a nice prize for the winner.
