Wishing You A Warm and Beautiful Day Card by Tasha!

 Happy Friday Ai Fans!

Tasha here sharing a new card created with the 5488 - Sailboat Window Set. I love all the Window stamps and I thought this one would be perfect for a Summer card, the lake is so pretty!

This image was stamped with black ink and colored with Copic Markers. I live near lots of lakes and had a wonderful time coloring this image, especially the flowers.  I also added little white accents to the water to make it look like the sun was shinny on it. Doesn't the bright blue sky and clear water make it look like a perfect day for sailing?

One of my favorite color combinations is Blue and Yellow, so I used these colors to bring in tons of color. It reminds me of the sun and water and I love the bright yellow pattern paper!

Lastly, I added layers of silver foil paper and several white enamel dots before attaching it to a white card base. 

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

 

Lake House Cards by Tasha

 Happy Friday Ai Fans!

Tasha here sharing two cards created with the pretty Boat Window Accessory Stamp Set (#5409). 

This stamp set includes the boat house scene and a little boat image with a coordinating die. You have the option to just use the scene stamp as is, stamp and cut out the boat image, or stamp the boat directly into the scene. Being able to add or remove the boat allows you to really personalize your design.

I stamped all the images with black hybrid ink and used Copic Markers for the coloring. I like having little stars in the sky, it makes me think of being up north in WI.

My second card uses the stamp alone without the boat. I also used different colors and added more white gel accents. It's fun to mix up the color combinations! I think this scene would also look nice with Fall colors; I may need to try that out next!

To complete both cards, I added layers of card stock and glitter paper before attaching them to a card base.

I hope you enjoyed today's projects!

Just Add Water by Niccole Kulig

Hello Ai fans!!

Today I am sharing a card I made with the Windows to the World series set called Pleasures Window. I love how simple the windows are but yet they add such a punch to your card.

I started by diagonally cutting my patter paper and adding a strip of glitter paper for a little pop. I put two enamel dots in the upper left corner to even out the card. I colored my window with Copic markers, and did a double frame on it so it stood out a little more. Raised it up with foam tape. 

The sentiment I chose was from the WC - Sentiments Set. I thought the sentiment fit perfectly with what I wanted to say  with my image.   

It came together so quickly I had to make two cards. I can't tell which one I like better ... the square cut window or the window where I fussy cut around the words.  Which one do you like better?? 

In case you are wondering the window says "The pleasures of life are simple, just add water." Next time I want to water color the window.
