Howdy Girlfriend Card by Tasha!

 Happy Friday Ai Friends!

Tasha here sharing a card created for the Ai Pretty in Pink Challenge. I used the fun 5108-Cowgirls Set and had a blast creating this all pink design!

The friends were stamped with black ink and I used several shades of pink ink for their clothing and cool boots. I also layered pink Distress Oxide Ink in the background to add more color. I love how the stenciled stars frame the girls!


Lastly, I stamped the "Howdy Girlfriends" greeting and added layers of pink card stock and a silver mirrored paper. This card is perfect to send to a special friend year-round and it would be fun to try this look with a different color. Maybe I will do blue or purple next!


Thank you for checking out today's project and I hope you will participate in the Pretty in Pink Challenge!

Easter Chick Slimline Card by Tasha

Happy Friday Ai Fans!
Tasha here sharing an Easter card inspired by the Art Impressions Here Comes Peter Cottontail Challenge!


My card was created with the Hoppy Easter Stamp Set and the sweet little chick was colored with Copic Markers. I used a white gel pen to add a pattern to the egg to give an Easter egg look!


 I used a cloud stencil and Distress Oxide Ink for the sky and a grass stencil for the ground. I also used green markers to add more detail to the grass and create a shadow under the little chick. 


The greeting "Hoppy Easter!" was stamped with a light blue ink and I used green Distress Oxide Ink around the edges to bring in more color. I also added glitter paper around the sentiment and slimline card for extra sparkle!

Lastly, I added polka-dot pattern paper and little blue pearls to the sky to complete the happy card!

Thank you for checking out today's card and I hope you will join in the Ai Here Comes Peter Cottontail Challenge!

Have a great day!

Happy Birthday Card by Tasha!

Happy Friday Ai Fans!

Tasha here sharing a birthday card created with the fun 5255 - Birthday Cake Set!

This cute cake themed stamp set includes several cakes, sentiments, and coordinating dies. I stamped this festive cake with black ink and colored it with Copic Markers. I love that each layer has a different look. I would love a cake like this for my birthday!


To spotlight the cake, I used a sunburst stencil and two shades of Distress Oxide Ink. I blended the ink in a circular pattern to give a unique glowing look. I like the pops of yellow in the background!


Lastly, I added layers of green glitter paper, hot pink card stock, and a lime green polka-dot pattern paper. Pink and green is one of my favorite color combinations! I also attached a "Happy Birthday" banner before adhering the card to an A2 sized card base.

Have a wonderful day!

Merry Christmas Card by Tasha!

Good morning Ai friends!
Tasha here sharing a holiday card created for the Ai Happy, Happy Holidays Challenge using the 5040 - Sleigh Bells Stamp Set!

The sweet deer couple were stamped with black ink and colored with Copic Markers. I also used a white gel pen to add little accents to their accessories. I like the polka-dot harness and thought the purple looked great with the red and green colors!


To complete the card I used the 5061 - Square Double Stitched Dies to create the layers. The stitched design adds so much detail! I also added some ink blending on the center card with Antique Linen Distress Oxide Ink to give the card a vintage feel. 
I hope you enjoyed the card for today and will join in the Ai Happy, Happy Holidays Challenge!

Pumpkin Spice Card by Tasha

 Happy Friday Ai Fans!

Tasha here sharing a new Fall-themed card created with the super cute Feast Mode Stamp Set!


The sweet fox was stamped with black ink and colored with Copic Markers. I masked off the image and used two stencils to create the autumn background. I blended multiple shades of Distress Oxide Ink for the falling leaves and stones on top of cream paper. I love the warm golden shades!


After the ink blending was completed, I gently pulled off the masking paper and colored the Fox. This cute fox looks so happy enjoying the Fall day with his warm drink; I am so excited for sweater weather!


The sentiment, "Tis the season for Pumpkin Spice" was stamped directly on the stenciled stones. I'm a big fan of all things pumpkin and thought this was a great greeting for this card!



Lastly, I added coordinating layers of cardstock and a pretty orange plaid paper to complete the card. I also added some gold, white, and metallic bronze ink to the background for more detail. I love how this design turned out and can't wait to send it out this Fall!

Thank you for checking out my card today and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
