Hippo racer

 Hello, I have a fun card for you today using VLVS.

                                                             Stamps Used:

                                                             19837 hippo racer

                                                             19563 grunge circles 

I stamped the grunge circles with blue distress ink, and I edged the card with the same color.

I then made alcohol ink background.

 Next, I stamped hippo racer on top of the grunge circles and then layered it on the background paper.

Lastly, I added to gray card base. 

Joy & Cheer

 Good morning, I'm here with a festive arch for you today using Lost Coast stamps.

Stamps Used:

small snowflake set

pieces of calligraphy 

gnome

I stated out by die cutting 2 arches. 1 in black and 1 in white. I took a stencil and some red distress ink and added to each corner. I then did a lighter go through over the rest of the arch. (I was cleaning the stencil)

Next, I stamped a colored the gnome with copic markers. Then I cut him out. I stamped a snowflake and some words around the arch.

I ripped some green snowflake paper to add in the middle and then I added the cut-out gnome and a little saying.

Come join the Festive fun challenge.

Floral challenge

 Good morning we have a new challenge over at The Male Room blog. Floral. 

This is my card I made for this challenge. I used Unity stamps and paper for this card; I found this stamp set that had a pocket watch and floral around it and I thought it would be perfect for a male themed floral card. 

I stamped and colored only some of the rose's blue. I then wrapped some twine around the torn stamped piece and added it to pattern paper on the card. I then put it on a dark blue card base.

Halloween ID cards

 Hello, I'm here with some ID cards for you using Lost Coast stamps. 

Stamps Used:

Frank

Bride of Frank

small skeleton 

travel stuff set 

numbers border 

 Alfred Hitchcock Standing 

I started out by cutting cardstock to 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 and coloring it with some distress ink. I stamped the ID from the travel stuff set and edged it with some dark brown distress ink. 

Next, I stamped the faces of Frank, Bride of Frank, small skeleton and  Alfred Hitchcock Standing.

I added some Halloween snippets. I then took the numbers border and stamped it in red on all of the cards. I also took the ID and stamped the seal in red off the side. 

In the travel stuff set there is another stamp that has a seal, and I stamped that on the other side. 

I did them in the same style so they would all go together. This is the only one I stamped the seals in orange to go with the Halloween snippets color.

You still have a few more days to join in the Halloween challenge.

I started making a film strip from a die cut. I cut out again in cream cardstock so I could use it for the middle. I colored it with distress inks, and I stamped plague doctor and grunge writing.

To make the card base I used the same colors of distress inks and I stamped witch hazel,  glycerine label   , mercurial ointment, small spider web, and pentagram.

Next, I glued the film strip down on the front of the card.

I stamped the witches broom on a separate piece of paper and colored it with copic markers and cut it out. I added some Halloween ephemera.

Spiderweb card

 Goodmorning all, I'm here with Day 14 for you using Lost Coast stamps.

Stamps Used:

spiderweb background

 Flying skull  

I first stamped the spiderweb background on orange cardstock and edged it with drown distress oxide ink. I then layered it on a black card base.

The next step I did was to stamp out 2 of the flying skulls and cut them out.

I colored them with copic markers and then I stuck them to the front of the card.

I hope you join in the challenge.
