Avery Elle … Hogs and Kisses

I have a card today using the fabulous Hogs and Kisses stamp set from Avery Elle – isn’t it amazing?  Love the little faces on the Valentine’s critters – especially the piggy!!  I used the pierced rectangles and some new dies coming at the end of February – pierced clouds!!  Thought I’d go for a more non-traditional approach to my Valentine’s card for hubby this year – no pinks or reds this time!! I coloured the images with Copics and popped the hearts up for a bit more dimension.

Avery Elle – Snow Globe

Hello and Happy Monday.  Today I’m up on the Avery Elle blog with a fun card using the fabulous Snow Globe and Snow Much Fun stamp sets.  To get the snowy effect on the background I blended some Tumbled Glass distress ink and then splattered lots of water – love this effect! I added a fine white line detail to resemble the curve of the glass and coloured the cheeky moose with Copics.  The woodgrain panel was die cut using the Wonky Stitches die and everything mounted on an A2 card base.

Laugh Out Loud

Teaser Time

It’s day 2 of the Clearly Besotted teasers for February 2015 and today I’m sharing a card featuring a FABULOUS set called Laugh Out Loud.  Sometimes you want something on your card a bit different to the usual “Happy Birthday” sentiment.  Well this set has what you need – some funny quotes to give your recipient a wee giggle!  I particularly like “Smile, while you still have teeth”  – LOL!!

I created a bunch of balloons using some simple masking and then coloured them with Copics and finally a coating of clear Wink of Stells (which for once you can actually see in the photo!!).

Make sure you pop over to Steph’s blog and the rest of the design team for more inspiration.
