Hello everyone! It's the 1st of the month, and that means another blog challenge over at OddBall Art . This months theme is Naughty Gnomes, and appropriately enough, I have chosen imagine #461 Naughty Gnomes for my DT entry. For this fun cover, I decided to pair the gnomes with a fun Mushroom House coloring page I got from Pinterest. To keep it simple, I colored my images using my American Crafts colored pencils. I love the monthly challenges, because it gives everyone the opportunity to try something new, push their creativity and use some creepy cute images! I cant wait to see what you all come up with. If you need any digital images for this challenge, make sure to use coupon code DTENY10 for 10% off your purchase! Happy Crafting! Eny Dunn

Let's Celebrate Card|Spellbinders Small Die of The Month Kit

Image
Hello everyone and Happy Monday! I love celebrating birthdays and special occasions. It's always fun to be able to create something unique and from the heart, for a special someone. Today I'm sharing a quick card I created uaing this month's Spellbinders Small Die of The Month Kit and a sentiment from last year's June Kit. It may be called small, in no way does it refer to the amount of love put in this kit. For the month June, you get a adorable cupcake die set, with a candles and flower detail, perfect for creating handmade birthday love! I used one of the glitter paper packs from Die Cuts With A View and a American Crafts birthday paper pad, to cut all my images. Creating this cover to celebrate my nieces birthday , I used one of the sentiments from last year's kit, that appropriately says "Let's Celebrate". I adhered all my components over a standard A2 size card (4.25x5.50) and finished it off with some colorful Nuvo Crystal drops! These die ...

Quick and Easy Spring Card|Newton's Nook Stamps

Hello everyone and Happy Friday! Today's card was inspired by this adorable stamp set from Newton's Nook, that has a fun play on the "April showers, bring May flowers" sentiment. I wanted to create a colorful background, so I used my cloud border stencil, and distress inks, to add a soft sunrising effect to my cover. I had in my stash a die set from Peachy Cheap that I acquired a while back, and it has this adorable person holding an umbrella and wearing rain boots. Using the same smooth white cardstock I used for my background, I cut the piece using my Spellbinders Platinum 6 Machine. Added a bit of color to my image my using the same distress inks as my background. I wanted to add a simple ground where my person could stand on , and I created the look of grass by using three different shades of green of my Copic markers. Using a flick motion along the bottom of my cover. I stamped my sentiment, and adhered my die cut, added some enamel accents and done! For th...

Happy BORKday Card|Spellbinders and Ink Road Stamps

Image
Hello everyone and welcome to another Card Making #tutorial, this time using the Count The Stars Stamp and Die set from Spellbinders with the Bork stamp set from Ink Road Stamps! I wanted to create a fun birthday card that could be used for any age, and i thought uaing this stamp set from Ink Road Stamps, was the perfect touch. It has 6 adorable doggy images, and I chose the fluffiest one in the bunch. I stamped my image on some Park Lane 110# smooth white cardstock, uaing my Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I added a bit of color by using my number LG2 and LG4 gray tone Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers. Once my image was fussy cut, I was ready to create my background. I had seen a stencil from My Favorite Things, that has several circles in different sizes and it was used to create this fun background effect with some Distress Inks. Unfortunately, the stencil was sold out. But, I did have some stencil sheets, so I whipped out my circle dies and created my very own stencil! I used my distres...
