Salon Time! Card by Tasha!

 Happy Friday Ai Friends!

Tasha here sharing a card created with the new Village Sets and super cute Exclusive Candy Shop stamp. I was so excited that the new exclusive stamps were little buildings and are small enough to fit into mini albums, planners, journals, cards, tags, and scrapbooks; the perfect size!

(*The Exclusive Candy Shop stamp is a freebie when you spend $30 at the Art Impressions online shop.)

I started by stamping the Candy Shop image and added the word "Salon" to the sign. It's great that the sign is blank, so you can stamp/write anything you want to customize it. To add the other details, I used masking paper to block off areas before stamping the bushes, fence, pathway, and scooter. This masking process does take some time, but I just love the way all these stamps work together!

After all the stamping was done, I added blue fluffy clouds to the sky and colored the rest of the card with markers. I also used a white gel pen to add in little accents. 

To complete the card, I attached silver glitter paper, pink and black card stock, and a piece of fun heart pattern paper. This design turned out so cute and look forward to making more projects with these little stamps!

I hope you enjoyed today's card and are having a wonderful day!

You've Got Style Matchbook Card by Tasha!

 Happy Friday Ai Fans!

Tasha here sharing a new card created with the new 5498- MB Salon Set! The Matchbook cards are so much fun to make and gift to special family members & friends!

The card base was created with the 5317-MB Template Dies and I used double-sided pattern paper to have a different pattern on each side. The base template also include little windows dies and cuts a cute scalloped edge; I love these little details!

For the coloring I used Copic Markers and added little accents with a white gel pen. All of the Ai Matchbook sets fit within the base template and you can mix and match your sets to really customize your scene. I also love that all the sets include the coordinating dies, so it's super easy to cut the pieces out!

I hope you enjoyed today's card and are inspired to create a Matchbook card!

What happens at the salon...by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans! 

I was so excited to make this card.  My hair dresser who I've been going to for the last 17 years is expanding her business.  She purchased the business next door and knocked down a wall.  They'll be providing spa mani/pedis now and I wanted to congratulate her.

How better to do that than with the 4 four funnest ladies around!

This image is from Art Impressions and is called Beauty in Progress Set (Sku#4240).

 

The adorable little sign and shelf are from Beauty Salon (Sku#3529).

The top verse on the inside is from the salon set and the CONGRATULATIONS is from  Hats Off Set (Sku#4289).
