Warm your heart by Sherry Eckblad

Hello Ai Fans!

Sherry here today sharing a card using my favorite kind of winter image...Christmas Snowmen! I love anything with a snowman theme.

(Copics used: YG03, YG05, YG23, E55, E57, BG000, BG00, BG02, BG15, BV00, BV02, BV11, R20, N1, Y15, Y19, Y35, YR07)

This was such a simple one layer card to create that I made several to use as my Christmas cards this year. I stamped the Christmas Snowmen image towards the bottom of the card and then with my T-Square ruler I drew the thin black line around the outside edges of the card to create the border before stamping the Warm your heart sentiment.

I colored the images with my Copics and then using a White Glaze pen I added the polka dots to the hats and colored in the buttons on the vest. Lastly I added glossy accents to the lights and the noses.

A fun holiday card for all my snowmen loving friends.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stamping!

Girlfriends Wine Tasters by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing one of my favorite GIRLFRIENDS images from Art Impressions.

Wine Tasters Set (Sku#4383)

Bear with me...there are A LOT of pictures in this post!  I spent nearly a full day assembling two copies of this card and I want to be able to remember it when it's gone!! lol!!  I had to fussy cut 8 barrels, 8 tiny mice, two cheese platters, two sets of Girlfriends, 10 wine bottles and two wine glasses!!  I'm takin' lots of pictures!!

The cheese platter is actually from Luigi (Sku#T2832).

What a happy coincidence that his platter fit perfectly on top of the "wine" barrel.

If you look closely at the Luigi image you'll see that what I've used as a tablecloth is actually his hand holding up the tray.  Pretty cool huh? 

Here's a close up of the Girlfriends and their shiny wine glasses.

The mice may have been a challenge to trim but they were worth every second!  Aren't they the cutest thing ever!  I know no self respecting winery would really let mice run around the tasting rooms but they made this card extra special.  Furries TF (Sku#4208)

Check out the shiny "glass" window with the grapevines hanging from it!

The wall art and the wine bottles were all just printed off the internet. The Wine Taster piece is actually a sign that you can order for your house! I just shrunk it down...WAY down... Cute huh?

Birthday Birdie by Sherry Eckblad

Hello Ai Fans, Sherry here today sharing a fun card using one of my favorite animals. 

Meet Birthday Birdie (sku1863)! For those that don't know me I love chickens and roosters and have several kinds in my kitchen and others randomly placed around the house. (these are not real chickens/roosters in case you were wondering)

For this card I pulled out my color pencils and did a quick coloring of the image. Then I created a mask of the image and placed it over the image so I could quickly add some butter bar ink to the stencil. Once that was complete I added some alpha stickers from my stash to create the sentiment and then I placed it on the card using foam dots. I added a touch of glossy accents to the balloon for a little dimension.

That's it for me today. Make sure you check back here tomorrow as we are introducing some new images to you.

Dotty by Rhonda Harre

Good Morning Ai Fans!"

I have been working on another card using twine.  I used Dotty#U2278 and
one of the sentiments from Comfy on Couch Set #4050.

I used Copic Markers to color Dotty,

then used Spellbinder Die - Big Scalloped Ovals LG.

I used twine and button on front.

Glossy Accent for glasses, puff pen for collar on dress,

stickles for earrings, and highlighted dress with star dust pen.

It is hard to capture the details of Dotty.

Had fun with twine and button on the inside.

Thanks for sharing some moments!
