Poetic Artistry

Hi friends! I'm popping in today with a fun thank you card featuring stamps and dies from Jaded Blossom. I've been feeling a bit under the weather lately, but found a little time the other day for a coloring session, and these sweet images from the Sprinkled with Love set.

I stamped out the muffin sentiment tag, muffin, and coffee cup image, then pulled out the donut from Kawaii Coffee Breakfast Icons, since I wanted a bit smaller donut to go with my coffee (cutting calories, you know 😉). I then colored with copics and cut the tag sentiment with the Treat Tag Die and the other images with my Scan 'n Cut. I assembled them on the treat tag, matting with black cardstock and then highlighting with clear and sparkle accents.

The thanks is from the Basic Word Dies set. I love how it has the shadow and outline. I colored a scrap of white cardstock with the aqua Copics I had used on the muffin, then cut with the thanks die and matted with the black shadow, adhering at the top of the tag.

The background is stamped randomly tone on tone with the muffin from Sprinkled with Love, then I pulled out a couple of scraps of designer paper to finish off the layout.

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you have a fantastic start to your weekend.

Hey friends! Today I'm popping in to share a couple of cards featuring my Special Blooms set that released this month with Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.

For this first card, I colored the cup and the bloom image with Copic markers, then accented with white gel pen. I cut with the coordinating dies. If you're inspired to shop, you'll save a bit if you buy the stamp set and dies together in this bundle.

I was feeling like getting my fingers inky, so pulled out some kraft cardstock and stenciled it with the Grunge Dots and Paint Splatters Stencils in varying shades of brown ink. Next I embossed the sentiment directly on the panel and inked around the edges.

The butterfly was already colored and fussy cut from a previous art session. It's from the Spread Your Wings stamp set and I had coated it with embossing ink and sparkle embossing powder for extra shine. I then decided placement and stamped the same butterfly in black directly on my stenciled panel and popped up the butterfly to finish things off.

My second card is a simple one, making use of patterned paper from my stash for an easy layout. The sentiment is stamped onto a die cut circle, then I added the cup and bloom image and a bit of skinny ribbon from days gone by. There you have it, one stamp set two different looks.
