New Queen... QFTD135

 

My first time using this new Snowman stamp (Frosty Friends).  I colored the watercolor paper with watercolor crayons and blended with aqua painter.  I stamped the snowmen on white paper and cut all of them out (and snowballs).  The patterned paper is the new Festival of Prints Designer paper stack.

I also added some glitter on the snow.

 

This card is for Queen Claudia!  Come play along with the Queen for the Day Challenge on Splitcoast.

First Trees

So excited about this new set "Evergreen".  I think it will be SOOOO versatile! 
For this first card I used the new Gumball Green and a new framelit.  I rounded the corners and added ribbon and glitter and piercing.

This card my mom made with this set.  She was also using her new colors!  These colors are Lucky Limeade, Island Indigo and Summer Starfruit.  She cut the window out of the blue with the framelit shape and the tree is behind.  Great card mom!  And it shows off this set in a great way.

Cupcake on a Pedestal

I finally got a chance to make a card!!  I used a whole bunch of goodies (some new ones too!)

This card is for 3 challenges...

The layout is from Stamping 411
The colors are from Create with Connie and Mary - Concord Crush, Marina Mist, Certainly Celery
I used today's Technique Lover Challenge -

First I inked my embossing folder with white and put a blue strip in and glued that onto the blue card base.

I did the magical masking technique with glossy paper, masking tape and 3 colors of ink (blue, green, purple).  I rounded the corners.

I stamped with Staz On on the purple, white and celery and paper pieced the cupcake image.  I embossed this in the oval frame and cut it out.

To embellish I used ribbon, buttons and LITTLE BRADS.  I just got them and they are SOOOOO cute, I love them.  I would definitely recommend getting these!

I finished off the image with some dazzling details glitter glue.

Watercolor Wonder Class Part 1

Here's the first card for my Watercolor Wonder Crayons Class. This card uses the crayons to watercolor the image with the aqua painter!



I used a flower embossing folder for the background and a few layers. My favorite part (other than the cute frog image from A Flower for All Seasons) is the glitter around the edge of the image. I hardly ever use glitter and am so glad I did here, it adds such a fun touch!

Check back in the next few days for the other cards we'll be making.
