29 YEARS!

Hi Ai fans! This week I played with this Teachers Rule stamp set. It's the middle of the summer but I thought it would be fun to make a teacher card.  

  I stamped the image onto smooth white card stock with Memento black ink and colored it in with alcohol markers. I used a double stitched oval die to die cut the image out. I layered the image over three different pieces of pattern paper. I added  few sequins to fill in some of the empty spots.   

I love this sentiment "29 YEARS + A BUNCH MORE = 29 YEARS!" This sentiment is just too cute.

Happy stamping!

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!

Hi Ai fans! This week I played with the Road Trip stamp set. I made two cards using this stamp set this week. For both cards I stamped this image onto smooth white card stock with Memento Black ink. I colored both images in with alcohol markers then fussy cut both images out. 

For both cards I die cut a rectangle out of Kraft card stock. 

Both card I stamped the stop light on the right side and colored them in with alcohol markers. I stamped the sentiment "Girls just wanna have fun!" on both cards on the left top corner. 

For my first card I adhered the car onto the Kraft card stock and added some sequins scattered around. I matted the Kraft card stock onto some pattern paper. 

For my second card I stamped some of the sentiment stamps randomly onto the Kraft card stock. then I adhered the car to the Kraft card stock. I also adhered some sequins onto the Kraft card stock. 

Happy Stamping!

Thin Enough by Niccole

Hello Ai fans!!

I am stopping by today to share a card I made using the Thin Enough stamp set from Art Impressions.  There is a larger set called Pamper Yourself which has this stamp set along with a few others. 

It came together rather quickly.  I stamped the woman and the sentiment first and Copic colored her.  I added the panel to my glitter background.

 I finished off my card by adding a shadow for my lady.  I also added some matching sequins for added dimension to my card.  That was it. The card came together rather quickly.

Here is one more look at the card.  I love how it says what a lot of us women are thinking.

Thank you so much for stopping by and spending a little time with me.  Make sure you come back soon to the Ai blog and see what the team has been up to.

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.

I Haven't Seen You In Forever by Niccole Kulig

Hi Ai fans!!

I am sharing a card today that I made with no a lot of supplies.  I used the 4408 - Texting BFF's from art Impressions.

As you can see It is not a real complicated card, but it gives a big punch. I did not use a lot of supplies for this card. It would make a great layout for a new stamper with minimal supplies.

I cut out a circle from the Art Impressions Circle Double Stitched Dies. I love these dies, they can be used for a million things, and i LOVE the fact they give a stitched line on both sides of the cut.

I raised my pattern paper up with foam tape to give the card some dimension, and glued my Texting BFF's flat to the card base.

Once again here is the finished card.  I added sequins randomly to the card to give it some bling. The sequins look really yellow in some pictures. They are iridescent sequins so depending on where they are they could look yellow, blue, even green, or clear/white.  I like a little bling on cards whether its Wink of Stella, sequins, or even glitter.

Thank you so much for stopping by and spending some time with me.

To My Main Squeeze! by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing a Valentine's Day card with you.  I used stamps from two different sets on my card.  The main image is a super fun, interactive WOBBLE set called Main Squeeze Set (Sku#4360).  The verse is from Show The Love Set (Sku#4230).

All that pretty shimmer is from a Wink of Stella pen.

This is the inside with the verse that comes with the main image.
