Marching Band

December 31, 2019December 31, 2019 Shari

Heyo everyone! Shari again sharing a card not using MFT stamps but stencils!(I need to stop.)

Marching Band

Per usual, I stamped the images, coloured them and fussy cut them rather poorly. On a piece of cardstock using two *cough MFT cough* stencils I made a sky and grass scene for my critters. I chose this specific stamp because of the sentiment that literally says the theme!
So I stamped part on the turtle’s banner and the rest on the sky. I stuck my images on the card and took Nuvo drops and the stardust pen and added shimmer to various parts of my card and I’m done..

Rainbow candles

December 31, 2019 Shai

Hi hi Shai Shai here! I’m here after a VERY long time to write a post about a card I am entering in the Simon Says Stamp Monday and Wednesday Challenge.

Candles card

I started off by stamping some candles on a piece of watercolour paper and embossing them in white embossing powder.I then stamped the flames in a rainbow order and colouring the candle in the respective colour. The card needed something on the top so I added rainbow smoke coming from each candle. The sentiment was stamped in black ink and then coated using the stardust pen by Sakura. The flames and candle stick were also coated with the pen.

Celebration Wishes

December 30, 2019 Shari

Welcome back to the Crafty Bubble! Shari here once again with another card using MFT products because I just can’t seem to stop…

Celebration Wishes

I began by stamping and colouring my images, then fussy cutting them. I took a piece of yellow card stock and used a party streamer stamp and used a WOW! embossing ink pad to make a subtle background. After adhering my images to the card stock and stamping the sentiment, I thought the top looked rather empty so I stamped a banner on the top and coloured it in rainbow to match the penguin’s banner. Using a Gellyroll stardust pen I added a boatload of shimmer on some parts of the images and banners. Boom!

Pool party

December 27, 2019December 27, 2019 Shari

Hello and welcome back to the crafty bubble after a very long time! Shari here sharing a card using a bunch of MFT products.

I began by stamping the images, colouring them with watercolour pencils and then I fussy cut them. On a piece of watercolour paper I made a wavy line with a pencil and used watercolour to make a pool-ish effect. I then used grey Copic markers to make a stone slab perimeter which didn’t really work but oh well. I used a grassy edge stencil and blended it on the rest of the card. After stamping my sentiment and adhering my images, I added some sparkle (because I am now addicted after the Kids Challenge) with Nuvo drops and that finishes my card.

Thanks for poinsettias

September 29, 2019October 1, 2019 Shari

Hullo, Shari here again to share another card for you all!

I began with a piece of red paper and die cut an embroidered thanks die on it. I took green embroidery thread and stitched the sentiment for about an hour. After that, I die cut a poinsettia die with leaves and the bit in the centre. I stuck everything to a white card base and added shimmer spritz to the flower and leaves and Nuvo drops to the thingy in the middle and some randomly about the card.

Party like a flock star

September 10, 2019September 11, 2019 Shari

Hullo! Shari here with another card to share with you all and enter into the Simon Says Stamp challenge.

rainbow bird card — Cute rainbow birdies

I started with a piece of watercolour paper and smooshed a rainbow of coloured inks onto it. The colour that looks almost invisible is green but it doesn’t show up well in the picture. When it dried, I stamped hummingbirds on various sections of the cards and took the same colour of inks and coloured over the birds to make them a bit darker. I then stamped a sentiment that has nothing to do with the card on the panel and finished off the card with black Nuvo drops for the eyes and clear sparkly ones around the sentiment.

S is for Santa

September 3, 2019September 11, 2019 Shari

Hello and welcome to you. I’m sharing a card today for that’s quick and easy for your Christmas stash.

I started with a white card base and used grey markers to create the floor. I then stuck a piece of patterned paper for the wall. I stamped the images, coloured them with markers and fussy cut them. I stuck santa and the penguins on the card, then die cut the letters from an alphatbet set and stuck them to the card. I added some Nuvo drops to santa’s hat and coat for sparkle and my card is complete.

Floral sprays

August 28, 2019 Shari

Welcome back to our crafty bubble for more inspirational cards for the Simon Says Stamp Kids Vacation Challenge 2019.

On a piece of white card stock I stamped a bunch of flowers and coloured them with markers. I added accents with a white gel pen and fussy cut the image. I lightly blended blue ink on a white card base, stamped the sentiment and stuck the image with foam tape. I added Nuvo drops to the leaves and florals and finished the card with clear drops and gems.

I embossed the image with platinum powder and used watercolours to colour the florals. On a white card base I blended blue and purple ink. It did not turn out as subtle as I wanted but I rolled with it. I splattered white paint on the background before sticking the flowers with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment on a white strip and stuck it on the card. A few Nuvo drops finished the card.

Shaking with Daffodil

August 28, 2019August 28, 2019 Shai

Hello. We are sharing two more cards for the Simon Says Stamp Kids Vacation Challenge 2019.

cool colour themed background card — Shai, Age 14

I enjoyed colouring this image and made another card with it. I started with a white card base and blended blue and purple inks for the background. I then added white paint and grass. I coloured Daffodil with markers and fussy cut her out, before sticking her to the card with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment in yellow and stuck it on the card. I added flower sequins and Nuvo drops as decorations.

I started with a white card base and gold embossed the feathers and sentiments. I cut out the opening for the shaker with a craft knife. I chose a piece of paper with gold foiled stars and the background for the shaker. I covered the opening with acetate and used foam tape around the edges. I added gold, black and silver sequins on the foiled paper, and then stuck the top over it.

Thank you for checking out our cards.

Daffodil and a waterfall

August 27, 2019September 8, 2019 Shari

Welcome to our blog where we are sharing two more cards for the Simon Says Stamp Kids Vacation Challenge 2019.

Waterfall card with animals — Shari, Age 12

I saw a cute waterfall card online and my mum helped me find a tutorial and figure out the measurements for the waterfall panel. Once all the paper was cut, I stamped each image and sentiments on a square and coloured them. I then stuck each square to the waterfall panel. On a white card base, I stuck a piece of patterned paper and stuck the waterfall panel onto this. I brushed shimmer spritz over the cute critters for sparkle.

I love making backgrounds with Distress Oxide inks and I made another for this card on a white card base. I stamped the girl on a strip of card stock and coloured her with markers. I then fussy cut the image out and attached it to the card with foam tape. I added Nuvo drops and sequins as embellishments and a small square sentiment.
