Wine Glasses by Lesley Croghan

Hello! Lesley here! Today I am using one of my favourite Art Impressions sets! I love Celeste and her amazing attitude to aging! LOL! I know my girlfriends will appreciate this card when they see it! 

I used the Celeste Set #4326. 

This sentiment cracks me up. I can relate in so many ways!

Thanks for stopping by!

Oh Shoot by Sherry Eckblad

Hello Ai Fans, Sherry here today sharing with you a card I created using one of the Girlfriend stamps. This one is called Picture Perfect.

This group of ladies totally reminds me of me and my girlfriends.

(Copic Markers used: E000, E00, R20, R29, YR24, YR31, E55, E57,

YG17, YG23, T0, T2, W1, W3, W5, YR04, YR07, YR09)

I decide to go with bold colors for their clothing since they seemed to be a loud group of ladies. I sewed on the strips of paper and then adhered the wooden camera and stamped the sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by, your comments are always appreciated.

Hello Ai fans!

Here's a close-up of the gals:

 

There is still time to play with our Doily Challenge!  We'll have a brand new challenge for you on Thursday, as well.  Happy stamping everyone!



Giant Cake Set by Karen Day

Hello Ai fans!

I haven't made a circle card in a while, and I thought that the image I chose today would fit perfectly on one, so I have a girly birthday card to share, using Giant Cake Set (Sku #4382):

I used my Cricut to cut out the circles as well as a folded circle base, which made the assembly fairly quick and easy.  I zigzagged around the circle with pink thread and used some colourful buttons to pull out the colours from the image.

I forgot to take a picture of the inside sentiment... it says: "What's one more candle?  Make a wish!"

Copics: Skin - E11, E00, E000; Greens - G46, G43, G40; Pinks - R85, R83, R81; Reds - R24, R22, R20; Browns - E57, E55, E53, E51; Yellows - Y26, Y23, Y21; Blues - B24, B23, B21; Greys - W5, W3, W1.

 



Laughing Set by Karen Day

Hello Ai fans!

I'm sharing a card made with one of the newest Girlfriends releases: Laughing Set (Sku#4385)

Now the funny thing about this set, is that these two gals strongly resemble two girls that work where I workout!  The hair, the facial features - it's uncanny how accurate they are... and the two of them have been friends a long time, so this set makes me smile :o)  Here's a closeup:

You'll want to check out all four of the new 2014 Girlfriends sets - you can find them here!  And there is still time to participate in our current Best of Friends challenge, we want to see your cards with two or more people on them.

 

Happy Stamping everyone!
