Wishing You Lots Of Everything Wonderful

Since I had made the double side step card, decided to do another side step card. Since I haven't used Gigi in awhile, thought she matched this groovy paper and decided to ink her up. Doesn't she look like she's going shopping with her handbag? That's what I'm gonna be doing on my trip home! Anyway, hope you are having a great weekend!

Bugs and Kisses Side Step Card

Hi Everyone!
Needed some practice making step cards for my upcoming class on Friday. I made this side step card using my Swiss Pixie stamps by CC's that I didn't ink up yet. These little bugs are so cute! Decided to pair them up with my Hero Arts Bugs and Kisses set that I got awhile ago but didn't really use.
Of course I had to do some distressing...
Here's a close up of Hansle the bee...
Supplies:
  • Swiss pixie stamps- CC' s designs
  • bugs and sentiment stamps- Hero Arts
  • Cardstock- Bazzil
  • DP- Jillybean
  • Distress ink- Ranger

A View From The Ocean

Took a short break from distressing and needed to make a sample for an upcoming class at Island Scrapbooking. Decided to play with my new Create A Critter Cartridge by Nancy Kubo and had a blast putting this card together. These critters are soooo cute! Totally my style and so much easier to put together than some of my other cartridges. There are only a few pieces and they are not that small, so easy to work with. I think my students will like it too. Since I wanted to include the cute crab and sandcastle, I decided to make the view from the ocean and make the "land" stuff at a distance. That's the great thing about step cards, it automatically gives your card dimension and depth. I'll share my other card for this class later. Supplies: All die cuts- Create A Critter Cricut Cartridge (Nancy Kubo) DP- Doodlebug Cardstock- Bazzil

Slowly But Surely

Yes! I finally made a card! Woo Hoo! This card just evolved on its own- it started with the new DP I got from Island Scrapbooking by Jillybean. The prints were so sweet that I couldn't resist. I've also been meaning to use this CC's image, so I thought I'd try a more 3-D look by cutting out the fence and mounting it on the middle step of this side step card. The butterflies were mounted on the back panel so that it looks like its behind her. Since she looked like she was in deep thought (hence the closed eyes), I found this really long and lean sentiment that fit on the side panel perfectly and matched her expression.
I think what got me almost back to normal is playing with my new distress inks! Can't wait to finish up my creations - right now its about 1/2 complete. They are so addicting! Like playing with large copics!!
Supplies:
Nora Swiss Pixie- CC's Designs
Fence- CC's designs
Sentiment- Hero Arts
Butterflies- MS Crafts

Bugs and Kisses

I saw this side step card in many galleries online and thought it was another neat card to try. Love this new CC's Sugarplum stamp called Lil' Bug Emma. Don't you just love her belly? I took this photo before I added small punched butterflies- sorry.. use your imagination for me K? Anyway, needed a sentiment to match this card and found this "Bugs and Kisses" sentiment from a mini Hero Arts set that included a little bee, ladybug and Hershey Kiss stamp. I thought it matched since Emma was dressed as a butterfly. Tracy gave me a great idea to try next time I make this card- she said to use a photo instead of a sentiment! I'll have to try that out the next time I make this! Supplies: Lil' Bug Emma- CC's Designs Cardstock- Bazzil DP- Best Creation Markers- Copics Ribbon Bugs & Kisses sentiment- Hero Arts Stickles Dew Drops
