Waffle Flower Crafts Beach Scene

Happy Thursday! I love the new Waffle Flowers crafts summer release!  I couldn't resist playing with the bear and some of the elements from the Stay Cool set :)

I am counting down the days to our summer vacation! This scene so puts me right there! 

I stamped my bear, his drink and the cute bird on a floater then coloured them in with my Copics.  I fussy cut those three images and then used some Lawn Fawn border dies to create my background panel, my sandy beach (where I stamped and masked my beach towel) and my waves.  I used Distress Inks to colour all of those elements.  I then removed the mask from the beach towel and Copic coloured it as well.

I then pulled out the new Lawn Fawn palm tree dies with some coconuts :) I die cut the images in coloured card stock and added shading also with various Distress Inks.

I put my little scene together added a mix of Glossy Accents and Nuvo Jewel Drops to the scene.  This card makes me happy!

Thanks for taking the time!

Waffle Flower Treasure!

Happy hump day! I needed a boy birthday card for one of my nephews and I thought this Tiger and Lily set by Waffle Flower was perfect! I believe this set has been out for about a year, but I was finally able to get my hands on it through Butterfly Reflections Ink!

I die cut two bases of Neena Solar White card stock and one out of Tim Holtz watercolour paper using the second largest Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle. One for my base, one for my "sand" and the watercolour is for my waves.  

I stamped my images on Neena Solar White to be able to Copic color them.  I used the accompanying Tiger and Lily dies then added some dot detail and white gell pen for highlights.  For my card base I die cut some Lawn Fawn clouds out of full sticky post it notes for masking and used Tumbled Glass Distress Ink for the sky.  I used the "wave" die from the Tiger and Lily set on watercolour card stock and used Salty Ocean, Peacock Feathers and Mermaid Lagoon Distress Inks and spritzed them with my Distress Sprayer for a water droplet effect. 

For the sand, I used a Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside Border and added Antique Linen and Gathered Twigs Distress Inks and the accompanying markers for detail.

I then put the card together and topped it all off with sequins by Tailored Expressions!

Thanks for taking the time!

Shellabrate!!!

I had such fun making this card! I am in love with sea turtles, anytime I travel and the city has an aquarium I have to go only to see the sea turtles! So when I saw this set by Waffle Flower on the Butterfly Reflections on-line shop I had to have it for me!

I started with a piece of Strathmore Bristol paper and used a mix of Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean and Faded Jeans with some masks that I freehand cut to make my waves.  I sprayed the paper with my Distress Sprayer, once that dried I took a Tim Holtz/Sizzix Stencil (Dot Fade) and added a bit of Nuovo Tanzanite Glitter Paste (LOVE that stuff!). The Tanzanite has a mix of blue and lavender glitter, so pretty! I then stamped and coloured my sea turtles with my Copics. I wanted a shaker card so I stamped my sentiment on the Acetate using my StaZon white and I used my Misiti to be able to re-stamp for the best impression.  

The outer frame is by MFT and I cut it from MFT Lavender Glitter paper. I used many different sequins in blue, lavender and clear.

Thanks so much for taking the time!

Sweet Baby Girl!

Made this one for a sweet new baby girl! Why are baby cards so fun to make :)

My background panels (Neena and Vellum) were both cut with my large Avery Elle Wonky Stitched die. I used a small striped background stamp on my Neena Panel with the Mama Elephant Piggy Bank Pigment Ink.  I also used the smaller Wonky Stitched die (same set) for my feature panel, I then stamped the Hero Arts Brushed Frame wood stamp in Simon Says Stamp Fog ink. I then filled the top left corner with some stars from Waffle Flower Bowtiful stamp set (cluster of small stars) and a few Lawn Fawn Stars also in the same fog ink. The cute bunny bear is from Mama Elephant Honey Bunny set and I Copic coloured her. Topped everything of with PPP sequins, Lawn Fawn Twine and the pink heart is also from Honey Bunny stamped in Piggy Bank ink.

Thanks for taking the time!
