He Loves His Yard

Hello Ai Fans! 

This week I'm working on a card for a man's man - a man that loves yard work and being outside.

The Lawn Ranger (Sku#T4095) is that kind of man. You can just tell that he enjoys riding around the yard creating the perfect pattern in the grass that shows his crafty workmanship.   I colored him with Copics.

I matched the image with complimentary yard fitting pattern paper and used a die cut to add some grass under him. He just looks so happy!

Come back tomorrow to see what lovely project Crystal has to share!

Thanks for visiting!

Take care and STAY POSITIVE!

Party, Party Time?!

Hello hello Ai friends!  I hope you have a fabulous weekend!

Are you ready for a party?  These girlfriends are sure partying away, hehe. 

I used the Party Girls set (SKU#4131) and a party needs some bright colors!

To create this bright background, I used the Tim Holtz seasonal 'summer' distress ink pads, I used blending tool and stamp with each color, and misted with some water to soften the edges, plus the colors will blend a little too.  

And to finished the card, I stamped the Girlfriend Party Girls set five times, then fussy out and popped each layer with foam tape.  

I hope you like it and have a great day!
