Get your happy on by Sharon Caudle

 Hello AI Fans!

Hope you had a wonderful and safe 4th of July weekend if you're in the states and celebrated! I've got a fun card to show you today! Have you ever jumped on a trampoline? Well this lady is out having the time of her life helping someone celebrate their birthday! Watch a clip of the video below to see her in action! It's so much fun watching her jump around! I started by stamping #5279 Be Happy Laugh Lines onto a Copic friendly paper and fussy cutting her out after coloring her. I found this video on how to make the mechanism to make her jump. It's really pretty easy and you don't need any special dies to make it! 

The sentiment get your happy on is also from the same stamp set #5279 Be Happy Laugh Lines. The bird is from #5346 Birdhouse Cubbies Set, the flowers from #5925 Honey Bee Set, and the fence from #5807 Journal Fence Dies. I just clipped off one fence post from the die as it was just a little too wide for what I needed. The other pieces just came from my stash. 

For the inside sentiments I used #5278 Dance it out Set and #5115 Birthday Laugh Lines for the two different sentiments. 

So that's it for me today! Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit and until next time - stay crafty!!

Thinking of You by Sharon Caudle

 Hello AI Fans!

Happy Monday! I think there's only like 11 or 12 days before it is officially Spring - on the calendar anyway! So I've got a card for you today that has flowers and cute little bugs in hopes that Spring arrives soon! I turned this one into a spinner card, so the ladybug spins all the way around the flowers. I wanted to start with some flowers, so I used the flower stamp and die from #5346 Birdhouse Cubbies. I used a grass die from my stash for the center panel, then layered the flowers by popping up the ones in front. The butterfly, dragonfly, and snail are all from #5728 Mushroom Cubbies. Don't forget to look at all your Cubbies sets, Front Door Sets, Matchbook Sets, and so on. They all have such amazing pieces that can be either used alone or combined with other stamps to create amazing scenes!! Isn't that the cutest fence? It's from #5807 Journal Fence Dies. In order to create the open track for the ladybug to spin around, I used both 5726 Nested Circle Dies and 5064 Circle Double Stitched Dies. I had to be careful popping them up to make sure nothing got in the way of the ladybug moving around the track. Lastly, I created the sentiment using one of my very favorite banner dies from #5809 Decorative Journal Page Set 2. I just love the look of the stitching around the edge. 

So that's it for me today! Thank you so much for stopping by for a visit and until next time - stay crafty!
