A Magical Day

Good morning friends ~ I thought I'd pop in and share this cute little dragon card I made recently for my great nephew's birthday.

I've been trying to pull out older sets that haven't seen ink in a while and give them some love, and this little dragon from My Favorite Things peeked out at me and wanted to play.

 

 I stenciled the background using white pigment ink to make a bokeh affect and stamped a few star clusters.  The sentiment is heat embossed.  The dragon is colored with copics and is sitting atop some fluffy stitched clouds from Memory Box.

 

 

I hope you enjoyed this little blast from the past.

I'll be entering this card into the following challenges:

Just Us Girls ~ Stencil Week

 

Word Art Wednesday ~ Anything Goes

Forest Mouse

I was playing around in my craft room the other day, embracing fall with this leaf shaped card I made, using Marianne Designs Tree & Leaf die.

I created the forest scene in the background using Cottage Cuts Mushrooms & Greenery.

Elines Mice from Marianne Designs is the star of the show!  

He's carrying his lantern from Eline's Christmas Decorations.

His dapper trousers are cut from plaid paper using Eline's Christmas Outfits.

A card just for fun!  Happy Fall!

I'll be adding this card to the following challenges:

Happy Birthday Sunshine! ~ DRU

Hello folks!  I have two great nieces that are enthralled in everything fairy-tale-ish right now.  They love unicorns, fairies and magic wands. 

 

I made today's card for the new Dies R Us challenge, where the theme is "anything goes", featuring Marianne Designs Unicorn.  You can purchase Marianne Designs Dies as well as hundreds of other European dies, during Special Order Events, offered at Dies R Us. 

Dies R Us has a number of rainbow dies available in the store.  I colored each strip using Distress Oxide Inks and sponge daubers.  Pair a cloud die with a "Sunshine" word die, and you have the makings of a very magical card!

The Unicorn die can be made as a unicorn or a horse, making this versatile as well.  Some star shaped sequins finish this card of perfectly.

Spellbinders July Card Kit of the Month

It's the beginning of the month, so you know what that means??  Spellbinders has a new release for all their Club Kits.  Each month when I open a new kit, it feels like Christmas!

This month's kit is called "Under the Sea Magic" and it is filled with fairies, unicorns, flowers and of course mermaids.  It's a celebration of magical adventure!

  I used a die from previously released Filigree Marquis to make this elegant card.  Just look at those beautiful florals that are included in the kit!!

This card kit includes a 6x6 paper pad, clear stamps, a die set, tons of embellishments, and more!  

Spellbinders kits always have a touch of elegance, using gold or silver accents and look at those puffy sentiment stickers.  Aren't they fun?

Not only do these kits have all these decorative elements, but they also include 10 card bases with envelopes, several sheets of color coordinating cardstock, double sided tape, double sided foam dimensional squares and sequins.  

Thank you for spending part of your day with me.  I so enjoy reading your comments and knowing that you've stopped in for a peek.
