Shut the front door! :)

Hello, and happy Friday! Here is my homework for the last day of Summer Card Camp 2. Sniffle, it has been fun! I snapped some pictures while I was making this card today, I figured that would be easier than trying to explain it with words. :) 
I cut masks from Post-It craft paper with the Stitched Round Speech Bubbles and the Stitched Square Speech Bubbles from MyCreativeTime. I used both the negative and positive cuts. 

Positioned my Heidi Swapp mask...

Sponge on Tide Pool ink and outline the bubble with a black marker...

Remove the positive mask and replace it with the negative mask. Most of the blue chevron bubble is covered, but you can see the little "tail" sticking out...

Ink up the long bubble with Butter Bar ink over another Heidi Swapp mask, and outline that with a black marker too...

For this last bubble, I turned that same chevron mask the other way and inked with Pale Tomato shadow ink. :)
I stamped the greetings from the Things I Love set from MyCreativeTime. I ♥ ♥ ♥ Shut the front door! ;)
To finish, I added the dude from the Stitched Restroom Peeps dies from MyCreativeTime...and some fabulous Crystal Clear sequins from Neat And Tangled


I hope you have a FABULOUS weekend!

Smile...sequins! :)

Hiya! Here is my homework for Summer Card Camp 2 today. I used the Stitched Hexy Dies from MyCreativeTime to cut out my "windows". I then traced them onto another piece of cardstock so I'd know where to glue my sequins. And then it's just a matter of gluing the sequins down, my favorite part!  Soooooooo relaxing to me. Then I put a bunch of pop dots around the sequins to pop up the front panel so it sits level over them. 
I white heat embossed the greeting from the Things I Love set from MyCreativeTime on vellum and put it behind one of the hexagons. I used Perfectly Purple, Lovely Lilac, Ocean Breeze, and Crystal Clear sequins from Neat And Tangled

Have a sequin-tastic day! ;)

p.s. I use glossy accents to glue down my sequins. A little dab...sequin...a little dab...sequin...

I thank my lucky stars for you!

Hello! Here is my homework for Summer Card Camp 2 today. I finally got to make a card tonight after 8 hours of a horrible migraine...boo! Anyhoo...I followed a color scheme and sketch from today, but flipped the sketch on its side. I used the Cricut Craft Room and my Baby Steps cartridge to cut out the star on the card front. Before making the shaker I stamped the stripes from the On The Strip 2 set from Neat And Tangled. I used soft pool and soft purple shadow inks and wisteria colorbox fluid chalk ink {darker purple}. 
 I made my shaker and stamped the acetate with that sweet face from the new July 2013 set from PeachyKeenStamps. The cool thing about stamping on acetate is that if you mess up you can just use stazon cleaner and try again. :) I filled the window with Crystal Clear, Perfectly Purple, Lovely Lilac, and Ocean Breeze sequins from Neat And Tangled.  The greeting is from the Year Round Sentiments set by Hero Arts. 
I also put some beads in the shaker window with the sequins.

If being addicted to sequins is wrong, I don't wanna be right. ;)
