Loves Rubberstamps - Sensational Sunday Inspiration 2/24

Hello Friends!

I am sure all of us have a BFF that we share all of our secrets with.  I know I sure do and I don't know what I would do without her in my life.  Today I want to share a fun card for Loves Rubberstamps Sensational Sunday Inspiration post, a tribute to all our BFF's!

I have used an adorable image by Make it Crafty, Girls Secret Swing.  It is stamped with memento ink on cryogen paper.  I actually had the card base made some time ago to use with a different card, but it just didn't work out the way I had planned.  So as I was coloring this image with my copics, I thought this would be a great background for this card.  I ended up making it into an easel card, added some banners, a bow and some cute little butterflies.  I purchased a silhouette machine a few weeks ago, so I have been trying it out.  You will likely see more out of that fun little machine in the future.  I also used a EK success punch to add a border to help the card stand up.  The sentiment is by The Greeting Farm. I also used a spellbinders, elegant post die to make the swing look like it is hanging.



Copics used: 
Skin: E000, E00, E11, E13
Hair:  E21, E25, E27, E29;  E30, E33, E35, E39
Shirt:  RV21, RV23, RV35, RV29
Shorts/Shoes: BG11, BG72, BG75
Dress/Shoes:  Y11, Y13, Y15, Y17
Rope:  E41, E44
Swing:  W1, W3, W5

{PIN}spirational Challenge #43



Hello Friends!

Welcome back to my blog if you are returning, I appreciate your visit!  If you are new to my blog, thank you for stopping by to check it out! 

I have three posts for today, so please be sure to scroll up and see the other two for today.  We are now only a little over a week away from Valentine’s Day.  So the image for {PIN}spirational Challenges this week is very fitting!  Check it out!



Our Sponsors this week are:

Eureka Stamps


The Pink Petal

I am using the digi image Hearty Moose generously provided by Eureka Stamps.  Isn’t he the sweetest?  I have a thing for moose, they are just adorable.  But from what I hear they are filled with ticks and other bad things.  Too bad, huh?  The image is printed on cryogen paper and colored with copics.  The background papers are by My Minds Eye, Lost and Found.  Sticking with my recent obsession to not make regular cards, I made this one an easel card.  It is a super easy fold and so fun to have the image displayed with some extra fun on the bottom.  I finished the card off with some ribbon, a button, twine and some gem stones.  The inside is finished with matching papers to the outside and a couple of buttons to help the card stand up when displayed.  





I have used the following copics:
Rack:  E30, E31, E35
Body: E31, E33, E35, E37
Hearts:  R89

Ok, now it is your turn.  How does this picture speak to you?  Come on over and show us at {PIN}spirational Challenges!  We would love to see your beautiful creations!
