Walk into Summer


Good Morning.  It's Lisa with my newest project for Just for Fun.  I am so excited to be able to share my creation with you.  This following sketch is the inspiration for my card.


I started with the white card base.  I cut a mat of bright pink card stock and add to the center of the card front.  I added a piece of yellow ribbon both vertically and horizontal to the card front.  I cut piece of white card stock and stamped Flip Flop 3 (E3620) using Tuxedo Black ink.  I colored the image with Copic markers. I then stamped the A Vacation is... (B3669) sentiment at the bottom right edge with Tuxedo Black ink.  I cut a mat for the image out of black card stock.  I then cut a second mat of yellow card stock.  I added the yellow mat to the card front at a random angle.  I attached the stamped and colored image to the black mat and then added to the card front, again at a random angle.  I added Pink Star ink to the swirl design to add a little shimmer.

Having A Rockin' Good Day

 
 
 
This was a fun card to do.  Our challenge this week was to use this wonderful sketch created by one of the Just For Fun design team members and to use some of the news stamps.  Have you seen the new stamps yet?  They are a lot of fun.  Be sure to check them out on the site if you haven't seen them yet or are just wanting another peak at them to help you decide which ones to add to your collection. 
 
For the card, I used a black card stock for the base and added a piece of paper from Authentique onto the top of it.  I adhered it down with a piece of Washi Tape.  The mat behind the stamped image is a piece of yellow card stock with a strip of black c.s. run across it.  I love the new Silhoutte Couple so I decided to have some fun with it and add the horizontal musical note stamp as a background in black ink.  The "Shake It Up" sentiment is one of the new stamps to and was perfect with the dancing couple.  I liked this sketch so much I didn't want to change it much so I decided to just place things at a different angle than shown in the sketch. 
 
 
Have a rockin' good day everyone!

Seaside Romance

Hello, everyone!  Celine here with another sketch-inspired project.
First I stamped the seascape image and painted it with watercolors.  On a separate sheet, I stamped the Couple Silhouette and cut them out.  I then went over them with a black Sharpie to make them as dark as possible.  I glued them to the background, then built up layers and added embellishments according to the sketch.

What I would give for a day at the beach right now!

How great to do nothing....

Happy Friday! Today I have a card to show you today using the following sketch..

I used stamps from the Spring 2013 release. How great to do nothing... is the sentiment I used. For my main image I used Hammock in Palms. Colored image with copics. Stamped the image again so I could color and cutout just the Palms. Attached them with glue dots to give it more of a 3-D look.



Inky Hugs,
Amber

B Unique

Roni here...
 
Today I wanted to share my own funky take on a very traditional stamp image....
 
 
Just For Fun Rubber Stamp - Wind Swept Palm Silhouette
 
I colored the stamp using Distress Markers and while I was doing so the idea popped into my head. 
I know, it's a bit off the wall but it's a happy thought :) 
"B" Unique...."B" Yourself! 
 
So, next time you pick up a stamp, take a second look at it...
an elephant doesn't always need to be grey!

Fun Aloha Card!

Good afternoon stamping friends~!
I hope your weather is as glorious as ours is here-
it is a beautiful spring day here in Dallas- mid 70's and mild 
sunshine. Who could ask for more?

The great weather put me in the mood for beaches and so
today I have a fun vacation card to share with you
using another of the new spring release stamps.

My image is the aloha stamp and there are lots of fun
coordinating stamps in the new release as well.
You can check them all out HERE.   

 My embellishments are from Prima, Maya Road, May Arts and others.
 
I stamped the image using StazOn and added tiny pearl accents from Kaisercraft.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.
Have a great day!
