Trendy Bakers Twine~Valentine Treat Tube

Good morning friends! Today I am posting for the Trendy Twine blog. I am getting geared up for Valentine's Day so that is the project theme that I wanted to go with today.
I started with one of the fun Kraft Window Tubes that are available in the Annie's Paper Boutique store. They are shipped flat so you can easily stamp on them. The APB stamp sets that I used are You & Me, We Go Together, and Perfect Pairs.
The sentiments were stamped in black ink using the We Go Together stamp set. I also stamped the images from the Perfect Pairs stamp set in black ink. I then colored the images with colored pencils. The stamped hearts were from the You & Me stamp set and I used Scrapbook.com Candy Shop Pink and Mixed Berry inks for those. The finishing touch was wrapping Cherry Cupcake Trendy Twine around the tube and then I added a package of powdered donuts.

Here is what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:
Cherry Cupcake Trendy Twine
There also have been SEVERAL new sampler sets added to the store, including Valentine's day ones.  Here is just one example called "Lovely".

Sewing Scraps Card

Hello and happy Wednesday!  I am posting for the SumMore Fun blog today.  This time I am bringing back one of my very first Victorine Originals stamp sets...the Sewing set.  It has been three years since I first got this set and still love it to pieces!
This card was different for me.  It is supposed to look like fabric scraps and therefore is haphazard.  NOT how I usually create, but the Carta Bella Sew Lovely paper scraps were begging to be used!  I simply adhered the patterned paper onto the 5x7'' card base and then filled in the gaps with stamps from the Sewing set in brown ink.
The sentiment was also stamped in brown and is from the Victorine Originals Floral and Sayings stamp set, ANOTHER of my absolute favorites! <3  The only embellishments were some buttons and a a little sewing thread through a couple of them.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Pier Scene Card

Hello all and welcome back to another Wednesday in which I am posting for SumMore Fun!  This card was created with the recently restocked Raisin Boat Pier Happiness and No Loss For Words stamp sets.  I really enjoyed creating this scene!
I used several colors of inks on this card, as you can see.  I received new Scrapbook.com hybrid inks for Christmas, and have loved experimenting with them.  First of all, I stamped the pier with Black ink and watercolored it with Cinnamon ink and an aqua brush.  I then filled in the rest of the scene with stamps, starting with the rocks.  Those were stamped with Charcoal ink and watercolored with Rainy Day ink.  The tree was next, being stamped with Pine and Cinnamon inks.
The grass was stamped with Succulent ink and I did some second generation and partial stamping of the grass too.  I added sand stamped with Camel ink and geese flying with Rainy Day ink.  To finish off the sky, I used Daffodil ink to blend a little sunshine in from the top right corner.
The water was created by watercoloring with Postal Blue ink.  I decided I wanted to add a sentiment, so I chose "Thinking of you" from the No Loss For Words stamp set and stamped it in black.  To finish off the scene, I lightly blended Rainy Day ink around the outside edges.  Once I matted it with black and navy cardstock, it was ready to be adhered to a card base.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Thank You Sketch Card

Hello and Happy New Year!  Today I am posting for the SumMore Fun blog.  I decided to kick off 2020 with a card style that we ALL can use...a thank you card.  
The stamp that I used is a red rubber Victorine Originals Thank You.  I placed the cling mounted stamp on my stamp platform and stamped it with Scrapbook.com Midnight Blue Ink.  I cleaned my stamp off, leaving it on the platform, then used Versamark Ink to re-stamp.  I then heat embossed with clear embossing powder for a little extra visual interest.  I added a little brown ink around the edge of the stamped rectangle then popped it up with foam tape onto the card base.  The base of the card was created with navy blue cardstock, DCWV Cartographer patterned paper, In The Navy Trendy Twine, and metal brads.  This card was perfect to send off as a thank you for Christmas gifts!

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!
