Grow a Little Love

 

 Todays card is my fourth and final week as one of June's guest designers for The Perfect Sentiment and I'd like to thank the wonderful and talented ladies there for having me.   This week's challenge is to create a card with a sunny sentiment with the added twist of using an image of the sun somewhere on the card and is sponsored by Pattie's Creations.  I used that cute little Wryn from Tiddly Inks and this image is called Grow a Little Love.  I do like those Tiddly Ink images and Wryn is one of my favourites.  I used Copics to colour the image and then sprinkled some fine glitter into the Glossy Accents I'd added to the hearts.  The papers are from a 6 x 6 pad of First Edition papers from the Love Letters collection.  The little clouds are a memory box die and then came the image of the sun... now here I was stumped because where on earth did all the suns go - I couldn't find a single stamp or image  so I used my star nestabilities to do the rays and I found the sentiment on the internet.  I added some sparkles to the sun and clouds but got a little heavy handed on one of the sun's rays... that stuff is impossible to get off if you add too much!

Again, thank you to Jennipher and the gals at The Perfect Sentiment for making my short time there so enjoyable.

Today's card is my second week as one of the guest designers for the month of June at The Perfect Sentiment and is sponsored by Fred She Said.  The theme is For the Graduate with the added twist of creating a gift card or money holder. 

The image and sentiment are a set from one of Penny Black's Slapstick stamps called A Scholar and it's so perfect for this challenge.  The papers are Best Creations Mr. and Mrs. collection, which I've had for ages.  Copics were used to colour the image and a few stickles and sparkly paper added.  Here's a couple pics of the inside of the card and the slot could hold either money or a card (personally, I like the one with the $100 bill!).

 Today's card is my second week as one of the guest designers for the month of June at The Perfect Sentiment. This week is sponsored by Shelly's Images and the theme is to create a card with a sentiment for Father's Day with the added twist of using the colours below for inspiration:

I used an image from the Guiding Light set by Flourishes and the paper is a free download from Pixel Scrapbooking.  The image was coloured with Copics and the sentiment is also from the Flourishes set.

The Pefect Sentiment - MelJens

 

Today's card is my first week as one of the guest designers for the month of June at The Perfect Sentiment .  This week is sponsored by MelJen's and the theme is to create a card with a sentiment appropriate for love, weddings, or anniversary with the added twist of adding some lacy detail, either using lace or a lacy die-cut.  I used one of MelJen's fun little mice which I got as a 400 member freebie from Paper Craft Planet and it can be found here.  The image was coloured with Copics and the sentiment is a saying I found on the internet but it didn't give credit to the author, which is why I don't have it listed.  The patterned papers are from a 6X6 pad of the First Edition Love Letters collection and the narrow ribbon is just woven through the lace border.  Both the ribbon and lace are Stampin Up.  The little flag banners are one of the dies from the MFT Mini Wavy Banners.  I paid next to nothing for that set of 4 dies and they are so versatile that I know I'll be using them over and over.
