My Paper Life

TGIF!

I joined in a daisy card swap and this is the card I made. I used all Stampin’ Up! products along with the current sketch from Freshly Made Sketches.

This was one of the first sets I bought from the new catalog last year and I finally just inked it up for this card. I decided to cut a bunch of card bases in the coordinating DSP colors, so I can make more cards before putting this set away. Look for more daisies coming soon! To give the card a cleaner look, I used the DSP sparingly and embossed a cardstock background. This Garden Trellis embossing folder is so pretty. This is another item being used for the first time. I have to stop hoarding all these pretty things!

Here is the sketch I used~

Have a great day!

One of my card groups recently resurrected the brand swap, one of my favorites to participate in!

This month’s brand is Penny Black and I chose this adorable bunny from the Garden Critters set to work with.

I colored the bunny with my Stampin Blends since I haven’t used them much. I prefer my copics but these work when I don’t need a huge color palette.

The layout of the card is from The Paper Player’s current sketch challenge. I am also entering my card into the Feature a Creature challenge at the Penny Black and More challenge.

Here is the sketch~

And now I am caught up with my card postings!

Hello!

My nephew, Kaleb, turned 6 last Friday. This year’s theme was Spiderman! After cutting spider webs in different sizes for his friend birthday party a few weeks ago, I decided to go through my stash and figure out how to make a Spiderman card without buying anything. I am happy to say I succeeded!

I used a Tim Holtz embossing folder for the background, added a few spiders that had been cut with the webs, a number die cut and a sentiment. It came together pretty easy!

I joined in an Owl swap and then went crazy trying to find an owl in my stash. I know I have quite a few but I was looking for one particular set. This owl is from the I’m Owl Yours stamp set from MFT.

I used a sketch from the Fusion challenge and flipped it. Paper is from a fall Echo Park paper pad. I wasn’t planning on making a fall-ish/masculine card but the paper was handy 🙂

Here is the sketch ~

Have a great night!
