Giant Cake Set by Sharon Caudle

Hello AI Fans!

I've got a fun birthday card to show you today featuring #4382 Giant Cake Set. I made it for one of my BFF's that also has a September Birthday! This is one of my all time favorite Girlfriends images, although I don't think there is a single Girlfriend Set that isn't one of my favorites. LOL!  I stamped the image onto Cryogen white paper and colored it with Copic markers which are listed below. I added some balloon die cuts from my stash and added a cute little bow. I used quite a bit of 3M mounting tape to pop up both the image and the balloons for lots of dimension. 

Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit today, and until next time, stay crafty!!

Friends Forever Card by Tasha!

Happy Friday Ai Fans!

Tasha here sharing two cards created with the Ai 5516 Friends Forever Stamp Set!

For my first card I wanted to make a bright daytime scene. These girlfriends look like they are having a great time sitting together enjoying the weather! I enjoyed coloring their clothing and adding details to make their outfits unique.

I love this greeting and thought it would be perfect to send to a special friend. I used orange card stock to frame the sentiment to coordinate with the blue in the background. I also added red, white, and orange layers to the card to bring in more color. 

The second card is a night scene and I used darker colors to go with the starry night sky. You can really customize this stamp to go with all different seasons. I think I may create a Fall and Winter scene next!

I created the background with various stencils and ink blended the edges. I wanted it to look like the bright moon was shinning, so I kept the center bright to spotlight the friends. This stamp is so cheerful and it's so much fun to get creative and give each character a different look. 

I hope you enjoyed these projects and are having a wonderful day!

Women of Wine!

 

We have started a new challenge on the blog. Shaken not Stirred is about anything with a drink. Here's my first card for this challenge. It's the ladies from the Wine Divas stamp set. Be sure to enter your masterpiece in the challenge. We love to see what you create!

To make this, I used Copic markers to color the image and then I fussy cut it out. There are a few areas that don't really work for scissors so I used a finger blade to cut out those sections. I trimmed it very close to the lines so that the image looks almost stamped onto the specialty card stock I used.

I cut the cardstock and embossed it with a grape embossing folder. I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment with black detail embossing powder and then cut it out with a Circle Double Stitched die. I used a wine colored A2 sized card base and used a matte silver piece of cardstock as a mat.

These ladies are a lot of fun and remind me of the group of ladies I hang out with. We enjoy our beverage of choice and have a great old time with each other. So cheers ladies! We are better with age!

Thanks for stopping by and spending a little time with me here at the Ai Blog. See you next week!

Happy Creating!

Hi AI Fans!

I miss the spring, which is several weeks late here in Sweden. So I decided to use pastel colors which gives hope of spring and summer. Here are three cards with different Girlfriends stamp in lovely pastel colors.

The first is In theTub

Homemade flowers and a herat witch I cut of the botton an put it behind the stamp.

The  second card is with the NEW stamp kit At the Movie

Thr second card and third is 21.5 x 12 cm ( 8.5" x 4.7")
 This size is perfect for lots of Girlfriends stamp

And the third is with Girlfriends

Some more month and this is real :O)

Have a great Weekend!

Girlfriends have fun!

Hi Ai fans!

Here's the first substantial snow arrived and you can sense that Christmas is approaching. This time I have worked with a window and taken the gelatin sheets as window glass,between the paper layers. I have colored  I the Tub U 3564 with Tombow and Distress Markers.

Small plastic bubbles as water bubbles, some flowers and swirls.

Under the hot tub, there is space to write  a message.

 Have a wondetrful weekend.
