Avery Elle … Wheelie Great

Hello.  This week the Avery Elle team are shining the light on the gorgeous Wheelie Great stamp set.  That bunny is the cutest and when I see a bunny, I just have to put a cotton tail on him!!

I started with a white card base and took one of the papers from the Create Magic card kit.  I also used a grassy border piece from the ephemera pack to set my scene.  I die cut a frame using the Dotted Frame die (which I have realised has just been retired – sorry) and then stamped and coloured the images I wanted for my card.

For the sentiment I took the smallest of the tags from the Party Tag collection and stamped on to it.  As there is a hole at the end I covered it with a wee butterfly!  All that was left to do was add the pom pom to the bunny!

Avery Elle … SHARK HUGS

Hey there Avery Elle fans!  I’m on the Avery Elle Blog today with a card featuring a handsome lil’ shark that just wants to find love!  How are going to resist that cheeky wee grin?  He definitely doesn’t want to eat you, he just wants to cuddle 😉
I’ve created a video to share how this card came together but be warned, it’s not for the faint of heart!!

I stamped the images from the Shark Hugs set and coloured them using Copics.  To give the shark some texture, I used the colourless blender (0) and a white gel pen to add some detail.  Included in the die set is a small die that cuts around the fins so that his little offerings can be held in his hands (um, fins)!
For the background I die cut the Three Hearts die from the card base and adhered some red spotty paper from the Holiday Paper Pad behind it with foam tape.  I added the sentiment and a few heart and finished by adding some Glossy Accents to the rose and the tiny heart on the envelope.
Here’s another sample using the Shark Hugs stamp set.  This time I stamped Hug Me in the centre of the bitten heart and coloured it red with drops of blood falling from it!  Perhaps a card for the couple with a slightly darker sense of humour (cough, me, cough!!) ??

Avery Elle … Cupids

Hey there, the team at Avery Elle are sharing creations this week made with the gorgeous Cupids stamp set and dies.  These guys are the cutest and make for great Valentines cards.

I paired one of the cupids with the Heart Frame Elle-ments and some patterned paper from the Holiday paper collection.

I stamped the cupid and the clouds and then die cut and coloured them with Copics.  To add some shimmer I used Copic Spica pens on the pants and heart and a Spectrum Noir Shimmer pen on the clouds, wings and hair.

Before assembling the pieces I used Heidi Swapp gold lame spray to add a few splatters of gold and painted it on to the hearts on the Heart Frame die cut too.
