Gifts for Christmas

Happy Saturday!   Today I have made a Christmas card with LOTV's James with Gifts, one of my first LOTV Stamps. I stamped him with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored him with Copics E 00,17, 21, 25, 27, R 24,27, 46, 59, YG 99, G 05, N 0.   I matched him up with some pretty papers from American Crafts Kringle & Co pad and used a Dark Red CS as the base.  I added some red ribbon under the image and added a silver die cut sentiment that I found in my stash.  Finished with Liquid Pearls on his cap and some shine on the gifts with Sakura Clearstar Pen.  My DH called this a smiley card.

James Bear Trims the Tree

 

Second Christmas card for today.  I am trying to use some of my never inked stamps and this one is LOTV's James Bear Deck the Hall.  I stamped him with Memento Espresso Truffle and colored him with Copics . I added some shine with a  Clear Star pen it but does not show in the photo.   I fussy cut him to place in front of an embossed Christmas Tree (Darice EF) on green CS. I think it might have been  better not to have done all that cutting but I wanted James to be standing in front of the tree that he's trimming.   I added gold to the tree with Gold Jelli-pens and edged the green CS with a Sharpie Gold Paint Pen. The card base is an Ivory card stock topped with a pattern paper from BasicGrey Jovial pad.  I finished with a Flourishes sentiment Joy (from Alleluia Set) stamped in Versamark and heat embossed with gold EP. James is a very joyful bear, don't you think?  

 

Challenges:

Timeless Tuesday: Do some fussy cutting.

PapertakeWeekly: Oh Christmas Tree

Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra: Anything Goes for Christmas

Lili Of The Valley's Monthly Challenge: Anything goes with a LOTV stamp.

ABC Christmas Challenge: U for Under the Tree

Teddy Bears Picnic

A favorite challenge of mine is Craft a Scene...I always look forward to their monthly challenge.  The theme for the month of August is "In the Park" with a twist for an extra prize if you can make it a "Picnic in the Park".  I decided to make a card with LOTV's Teddy Bear picnic stamp shown in a park setting complete with ants....what's a picnic without the ants?  I stamped the Teddy Bears on white cardstock with Memento Rich Cocoa ink, masked the image and stamped trees from GKD's The Northwood Trees which were bare so I colored in leaves with Memento Bamboo Leaves ink.  I colored the bear image with a lot of Copics, sponged the Sky with Memento Summer Sky ink, and colored the grass with pencils and OMS. My ants were drawn in with black glaze pen and black pen. The lady bug stamp from Annabelle Stamps was stamped with black ink onto red cardstock scrap and cut out and attached with a glue dot....added legs and antennae with pen. Added a butterfly brad for more interest. Stamped birds in sky with GKD stamps with Memento Tuxedo Black.   Layered the image on a Red and White Check Pattern Paper and card base of Brown Cardstock  from stash.  Added border sentiment using a scrap of Pattern Paper found in scraps. (Looks crooked in photo but straight in real life.)

Challenges:
Craft a Scene: Read above
Craft Sentiments Designs: Animals

 I enjoy all your comments. Thank you. Theresa

Jacob's First Birthday

 Jacob, my great-nephew, celebrates his first birthday on Monday and I want to send him a very special birthday card. I used a LOTV's stamp "Patchwork Hot Air Balloon" that I stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa ink on White CS. I paper pieced the balloon and colored the bear with Copics.  I masked  the image and sponged clouds in the background. I cut letters and the #1 from adhesive backed CS  with Cricut and attached to the card. I attached the image to a mat of glitter dotted CS and added to a Turquoise Card Base.  The fun part of the card is the inside.( See below) I stamped the bear inside and added a balloon of red honeycomb paper.  I surrounded the bear with clouds printed with best wishes and added Jacob's name. Clouds were printed on the computer.

Birthday Card for Daddy Bear



LOTV Sketch 102

 I bought this LOTV Stamp when it was released this spring and have been anxious to ink it up. I had planned to use it for Father's Day but that plan did not work out so I am now going to use for Lili of The Valley's Sketch challenge this week in a birthday card. I stamped it on white CS and colored with Copics and sponged the background. I cut the image with a circle die and matted on another circle. Cut 3 rectangles of BasicGrey DP that I attached to Cranberry square card base...seldom make square cards but this cried to be square.  Stitched on a wide lime green ribbon and adhered the image. Finished with a Birthday tag with ribbon.
Challenges:
Lili of the Valley: Sketch 102
C.R.A.F.T. Challenge:  Recipe challenge: 1 Tag, 2 Circles, 3 Rectangles or Squares. This sketch worked well with this recipe.
BasicGrey Challenges: Use stitching. Stitching is not one of my favorite to do but it worked well with my ribbon.
Crafts and Me: Theme is Birthday Cards.

Supplies:
Stamp: LOTV From the Boys Collection, GKD Sentiment
Inks: Memento Rich Cocoa, Desert Sand, New Sprout
Copics: C00,1,3,9, B24,26,000, E00,30,31,33,34,,55,YG 93,Y28,R59

Life is Good in His Convertible

When my husband retired 8 years ago, I told him that he should buy a FUN car since he had driven  company cars for many years.....not much fun driving  them.  But little did I know just how much FUN that he would buy!  He came home sporting a Lexus SC 430 in Egyptian Sand...that's about as much fun as you can find in a car! And he has been driving it ever since.
When I saw this LOTV stamp of a teddy bear in a sports car, I thought immediately of my "Daddy Bear" tooling around in his sports car and had to have this stamp. I have colored it up to resemble his little convertible and made this surprise card for Father's Day. That was hard to do since he is always checking what I am doing in my studio. By the way, the front license plate reads "Life Is Good", his words to live by.
Supplies:
Stamp: Lili of the Valley "Mini Bear"
           Hero Arts "Dad"
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Copics, Versamark, Silver Jelli-Pen
Paper: GKD White CS, Basic Grey DP, Gold Metallic CS
Nesties, Silver EP, Glossy Accents

Challenges to enter:
Cupcake Craft Challenges: Theme is boy oh boy...do Father's Day project.
Little Red Wagon: For Dad.
Wags 'n' Whiskers: One for the Boys.
Stamptacular Sunday: Fun in the Sun.  What's more fun than driving a convertible in the sun?
Lili of the Valley:  Bring on the Music...may be stretching this a bit....but my card was inspired by the song "Drive My Car". May not qualify for this challenge but was fun to use this LOTV stamp.
 Listen to the song by the beatles:  Click here.
Happy Father's Day to my DH and to all the wonderful fathers out there.
Thanks for stopping by! Theresa


My DH and his Car



Mr. Fix-It Man

It soon will be Father's Day and there are quite a few challenges for men and Father's Day cards. I made this card using a LOTV image "In the Shed".

Attached to green CS and stamped the sentiments with versamark and embossed with copper embossing powder.

Cut image  with Nesties. I used a blue card base (from stash)  and embossed front with Cuttlebug EF Snowflakes and swiped with the Brilliance Platinum Planet pad. Finished with a GKD sentiment stamped and embossed on a Ribbon Tag cut with Spellbinders die with a hint of ribbon.
