Who wants to play with some  Paper Smooches today ! It’s Valerie here today and when I heard MarkerPOP! was going to carry Paper Smooches, I jumped up & down with giddiness 😉  PS is one of my favorite stamp companies, so this news made my day 🙂

(Because I’ve been pretty sick, and I’m still not quite in tip-top shape yet, I decided to go with a simple one today, which works for a lot of people a lot of the time; we all need something quick & simple once-in-awhile, don’t we?)

My card is using the sweet stamp set, Spectrum

The card is an A2, and the images are colored with Copics (colors R24, YR68, Y17, G07, B26, V09, & B000)

The rainbow & clouds image is painted with my Clear Zig Wink of Stella Brush Marker

I stamped the images with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto X-Press IT Blending Card Paper

The final touch was the Pretty Pink Posh sequins! I used Lemon Drop, Sparkling Clear, and Sparkling Clear Mini’s

Have a great day, and Happy Crafting!

It’s Valerie here today, and I’m sharing a brand new item in our stamp department from Avery Elle!

It’s Valerie here today! Hi everyone!

OK, so have you ever loved a card that you’ve made that you could just squeal “Eeeek!”? Well, that’s me today with the set of cards I made for this post using a lot of Lawn Fawn yummies 🙂

The school year is coming to an end soon, and I always like to make cards for all my kids’ teachers to say “Thank You” for all the hard work they do for my children. So I thought today’s post would be a perfect opportunity to design them.

 I’m using quite a few Lawn Fawn products:

A Good Apple stamp set

Science of Love stamp set and matching dies

Stitched Journaling Card die cut set

Mermaid Polka Dot notecards

Sunflower Polka Dot notecards 

Let’s Polka petite paper pack

I colored the stamped images with my Copic Sketch markers:
Bird: Y11, Y13, Y15, Y17 Glasses: B0000 Letters: R20, R22, R24, R27, R29
Book: YG11, YG13, YG17, B24, B26 Letters: Y11, Y13, Y15, y17
Science Beaker 1: BV01, BV02, BV04  Science Beaker 2: V01, V05, V06 Letters: G02, G05, G07
Apple: R20, R22, R24, R27, R29, G02, G07 Letters: B21, B24, B26

I used 4 different MarkerPOP! Bakers Twine: Warm Harvest, Sweet Holiday, Red Sunset, Lemonade.

I’m using the fantastic adhesive, Crafter’s Companion Adhesive.

Everything is stamped in Black Memento Ink.

I hope I inspired you with these fun little Thank You cards!

Have a wonderful day and rest of your week, and Happy Crafting!
