Simon Says Stamp NEW Release Good Vibes!!!

June 20, 2018 Pam Sparks5 Comments

Cute or what?!!! This pup has the right idea for staying cool this Summer!

Simon Says Stamps sent me this super cute stamp set to create with from their new release Good Vibes. So I set to Copic coloring!

The name of this set is Summer Cuddly Critters, you can check it out HERE.

I just had to grab the mirror silver cardstock for the ‘shades’. So funny… when you hold the card up, you can see yourself in them, just like the real thing!

Super easy card really… a Lawn Fawn Stitched sun die… the MFT Beach die set and the Memory Box Wrapped Stitch Rectangle die that I love to use!

I stamped in the MISTI with Ranger Archival black ink for the sentiments and Memento Tuxedo Black for the images I colored.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy shopping the new release HERE! Some fab stuff again! yay!

Memory Box Riverbank Oval and poppystamps Best Wishes Folksy Script…

June 17, 2018June 17, 2018 Pam Sparks7 Comments

Hi everyone! Happy Father’s Day to your families!

A masculine card to share with you today from the new MB/ps release. A panel of plaid paper…some textured cardstock to coordinate… the NEW Riverbank Oval die…cut first and then I put it in the Stitched Oval Layers die to run it through the machine again to get the stitch lines on it! It’s a neat die either way but you know me… use as many dies as you can on a card Pam! haha

Shop the new release HERE… lots of pattern paper HERE…

I die cut the NEW Best Wishes Folksy Script die in tan cardstock 3 times and glued them together…it’s nice when there’s wide spaces to put the glue. I don’t put glue on every area.

I love the PVA glue Cindy sells. I put it in the Ultrafine tip bottles with the pin top for this. (links below) Tombow Mono Multi comes in 2nd place right now! I can’t give it up completely yet! hehe

So glad for a day to recognize Father’s. My dad added so much to my life… so many good memories…a great man of God. Thankful for the wonderful Father my husband is to our daughter’s too, Happy Dad’s day Tim!

Hope you had some fun creating masculine cards this weekend too! or earlier…for the ones of you that aren’t last minute looloos like me! haha

Thanks for stopping by!

Guest Designing at Foiled Fox with Lawn Fawn’s NEW Reveal Wheel Die and More…

June 5, 2018June 5, 2018 Pam Sparks25 Comments

Hi everyone! I’m delighted to be guesting for the Foiled Fox online store blog today! This NEW Lawn Fawn Reveal die set makes up the cutest, cleverest cards that everyone no matter their age would enjoy receiving! Spin the dial and see…well…whatever you want to stamp! There are multiple designs you can change out…the skies the limit! YAY!

It’s so cool how Lawn Fawn thought of everything needed for this type of card! Kelly Marie made a video explaining every detail so you can’t mess it up!

I used the Reveal Wheel Sentiments stamp set for the words, You Are Sublime stamp set, You Are Sublime Lawn cuts, and Porthole Frames Lawn cuts for the images.

Some ⅛ inch brads fit the perimeter of the porthole perfectly!

I stamped the images with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on X-Press It Copic Coloring Card in the MISTI stamping tool and colored with Copic Sketch Markers.

This was so much fun to make! I can see more in my future and unending possibilities! Click over to the FF blog to see a super short video of my reveal wheel turning…then the store! The new Lawn Fawn release is in stock and free shipping with your $50 order!!!

A Lawn Fawn Jungle Birthday Pop Up Box…

September 26, 2017September 27, 2017 Pam Sparks23 Comments

Hello everyone! A wild birthday card for you today! This is the pop up box card die from Lawn Fawn that is so much fun! I forgot to take pictures of it folded up before I gave it to Gilbert Sunday. ugh. It truly does fold, lay flat and fit in an A2 size envelope!

So much fun for a little color book therapy and then a chance to use a big piece of that pattern paper hoard! I should make more of these! I can’t resist buying pattern paper but I have a hard time working it into the card design most of the time.

I used Lawn Fawn’s Wild For You stamp and die sets, Box Card pop up die set, Rectangle die, grass die and the words ‘rawr’ and ‘wish big’ came from the Critters from the Past stamp set. Almost forgot the balloons! They are from the Bicycle Built for You stamp set.

The images were all stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink in the MISTI stamping tool and then colored with Copic Sketch Markers. Very basic coloring.

The pattern paper is Lawn Fawn’s 12 x 12 size, Perfectly Plaid Rainbow Collection.

Gibby liked it! YAY…he was so excited for his 5th birthday and he loved his presents too! It was so hot…they’d been swimming! lol He’s just one of our many red heads! ❤
