Hoppy Birthday Card by Tasha

 Happy Friday Ai Fans!

Tasha here sharing a fun new birthday card created with the Frog Set!

The card was inspired by this week's challenge and I love how relaxed this little froggy looks! I layered a cloud and grass stencil within a spotlight stencil to make a little scene. I think having a bright white background really allows the cool shape and bright colors to pop!

The frog was stamped with black ink and colored with Copic Markers. I cut the image out and layered him on to the card with foam tape. I like that the clouds look far away since the frog is raised up; he is just so cute!

Lastly, I embossed "Hoppy Birthday" with white powder and cut a simple banner with the Flag Double Stitched Die Set. I added a layer of teal card stock to coordinate with the clouds and a piece of plaid pattern paper. This card is a great design to give to any one and it could also be used for a Father's Day card!

Thank you so much for checking out my card and I hope you enjoyed the project! Also, be sure to enter the Cloudy with a Chance of... Challenge!

Wood You Be Mine by Niccole

Hello Ai fans!!

I am stopping by today using the  Valentine Critters stamp set from Art Impressions.  Aren't these little animals fun?

Here is a look at the finished card.  Doesn't he look like he is glowing?  Like he is so happy and in love? Cute lil' beaver!

I started by stenciling my clouds onto the background of my kraft card stock.  

 I added three rows of clouds so it looked like my beaver was floating on cloud 9.  Doesn't the white really make it glow?

I added the sentiment "Wood you be mine?" to the bottom right corner of my card.

  I added my beaver to an Action Wobbler.  It really adds a punch in my opinion.  Besides, he shakes back and forth likes hes dancing. I finished the card off with some pink sequins for some added color and shimmer.

Here is one more image of the finished card.  I just love how happy this little guy looks, the look of love!

I really like how this little guy turned out ... like he is floating on cloud 9 and so in love.  Make sure you stop back soon and see what the Ai team is up to.

Hello Spring Chicken by Niccole Kulig

Hello Ai fans!!

I am stopping by today to share a card I made with the Spring Chicken set from Art Impressions!  I just love this set!  It is a lot of fun!

I started by layering my navy card base with a red poppy layer to create a frame. I die cut my green paper and set it aside.

I cut my watercolor paper down so the red paper framed it.  From there I used my ink and stenciled on my clouds.  I love how soft the clouds look when you make them this way. I glued my clouds dow on the red paper and then added the green grass to the bottom.

I colored my chicken with my Copics.  I fussy cut it out and added it to my card. I glued the bottom portion and used foam tape on the top half of the chicken. I figured I would add numerous layer of Wink Of Stella to my springs to make them stand out instead of coloring those tiny areas.  

Here is one more look at the whole card. I finished it off with some colored gems.  I love how easy this card was to make but yet it looks more difficult that it really is. 

Thank you so much for stopping by.  We will see you again soon!

I Just Plane Like You! by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing such a cute, interactive stamp set from Art Impressions.  They have a line called Sliders and this set is called 4801 – Panda Slider Set.

Normally the slider reveals a verse on the front of the card but I decided to do something a little different this time.  This is the card closed.

When you open it it reveals a window to the inside of the card where I stamped the sentiment.

Here's the inside that you get a peek of when you slide the die.

Love is in the Air! by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm so excited to be sharing two cards made with the new Art Impressions clear stamp set In the Air Set (Sku#4753).

For my first card I chose the "Love is in the Air" sentiment with the super sweet  skunk holding a heart.  I highlighted the card with the cupcakes from the set.

My cards both fit with the new Ai challenge ... LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!

For my second card I used the same set but a different image and verse.  When I saw the little skunk holding onto the balloon I instantly saw him floating through the clouds.
