Watermelon Magical Wishes by Nina

 Hello Ai fans, Nina here, today Summery card is so adorable. I created this card using Ai Fairy Houses Set from our new Summer release.

I started by stamping my fairy house with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and my Mini Misti.

I also stamped the little lanterns too.

I was so inspired by the watermelon I was eating and decided to use the same palette of colors so I choose these Copic shades:

Greens: YG67 YG17 YG23

Reds: RV69 R29 R27 R35

Grays C1 C3

Browns: E99 YR24 YR21

I then cut around my images and backed it with foam sheet.

I then cut a circle with a stitched circle die for the background and slightly inked the center with tumbled glass Distress ink and my ink blender to give a sky look.

I also cut a half circle for the grass below the house and colored it them the same Copic green shades so everything is matching.

I stamped sentiment and placed the background to a pink panel and attached the background circle, the grass, the lanterns and the house.

I also added some tiny dots and stars around the sentiment.

My card today features several of the new releases at Art Impressions:  5790 Fairy Houses Set, 5795 Berries Set, 5797 Little Things Sentiment Set, 5832 Gnome paper pack, and then I also used 5345 Fairy Cubbies Set for the fairies, 5588 Journal Oval Frames for the sentiment banner and decorative scalloped border, and 5064 Circle Double Stitched Dies.  The images were stamped onto Cryogen white paper and then colored with Copic markers.

Gnome Mini Card and Gift Box Set by Janet

Happy weekend everyone! Today I have a super fun project for you. Right now we have a brand new challenge going on called All Wrapped Up. All you need to participate is to feature a bow of some kind on your project. It can be made of paper or ribbon. It can even be a stamped bow. My project features ribbon and twine bows. I've made a set of 5 mini gnome cards, lined and stamped envelopes, and a decorated box to hold it all! If you visited on Thursday, you saw two of the mini cards that I made for this set. Today I'm showing off all five cards and the gift box.

I've featured several newly released stamp sets for this project. The box is decorated with a mushroom house from 5790 Fairy Houses Set. Next to it is a gnome from 5785 Gnomes Set. The mushroom beside him comes from 5788 Whimsical Mushroom Set. The sentiment is from 5797 Little Things Sentiment Set. The butterflies are from 5561 Birds and Bugs Set.

These little cards are so cute! They measure 2 3/4" x 3 7/8". I used 5785 Gnomes Set, 5797 Little Things Sentiment Set and 5561 Birds and Bugs Set. I used a stamp frame form the 5591 Journal Rectangle Frames Set. I cut out the frame with colored cork. I love the look of it. I also added a twine bow on top of a glitter button. The crackle background on the box and cards were made with a stencil and Tea Dye Distress Ink. I think it looks similar to the surface of a mushroom. How about you?

Here are the two other cards in the set. I love how each one is different using the same stamp and die set. It makes them extra special. I created custom envelopes for these little cards and I stamped the back with the 5797 Little Things Sentiment Set and the 5561 Birds and Bugs Set. The envelopes are lined with paper from the 5832 Gnomes Paper Pack. Each little gnome square is 1 3/8". So precious! 

Thanks for stopping by today. Don't forget to enter your own card in the All Wrapped Up Challenge. You can find that challenge HERE. I also invite you to stop by the store to see all the new releases for your card and tag making projects.
