"Lego" Boys Card

Hello

My grandchildren love playing with Lego so here is a card with "Lego blocks". I cut the squares at 3 cm, then using the circle from the Itty Bitty Shapes punch pack, punched out 20 circles from each colour. I glued 5 circles on top of each other then glued the stacks onto the squares. Certainly looks like Lego.




Little Friends image was stamped with Pacific Point ink then I colored it with Real Red, Gumball Green, Pacific Point, Daffodil Delight and Soft Suede inks using a blender pen.

Dinoroar 7th birthday card

Hi everyone
I've had a very busy weekend, then today had a card class here, so now I have just made a card for our grandson's 7th birthday. March is a busy month for family birthdays.


The DSP is retired (but it has to be used some time!)
The dinosaur at the bottom rolls along the slot when you tilt the card. Looks great as it rolls around. Hopefully my grandson will have fun with it.
I taped one piece of DSP to the card stock,then on a smaller piece of card added another DSP using glue to ensure it was attached all over. I cut the slot out using the Word Window punch. I started in the middle then kept moving the punch along to the desired length at both ends. The buttons on each end protects the ends as the dinosaur moves from side to side. I attached these with Crystal effects as it is a very strong glue. To make the dinosaur roll, I used two 5 cent pieces. Place one 5 cent piece under the slot, add 2 Dimensionals on top of each other, add the second 5 cent on top, then other dimensional, then the dinosaur. This means there is one 5 cent piece under the slot and one on top. This piece of card can then be attached to the base card. To attach it, I put two Dimensionals on top of each other to lift it up to allow plenty of room for the roller to move along the slot. I put the Dimensionals around the outside edge as well as around the slot. Just be careful not to have them too close to the slot otherwise the dinosaur won't roll around.
I cut the "7" out from the DSP to add to the happy birthday. The top dinosaurs were attached with Dimensionals.

Bloomin' Marvelous Birthday Wishes

Hi

It's been great having so many products to choose from for sale-a-bration this year. Bloomin' Marvelous is one such stamp set which I have used on today's card.



I combined Rich Razzleberry and Gumball Green. I was trying to decide what colour combinations to use so checked the colour coach. It recommended Old Olive, but then decided I really liked the Gumball Green. I probably wouldn't have thought of that colour combination but it does look great. I used the Very Vintage wheel for the subtle background on the white strip, using Pink Pirouette ink.

Autumn colours with French Foliage

Hello

Autumn colours go beautifully with the French Foliage stamp set so that is what I have used in today's card.



To stamp the background, I used Stampin' Write Markers to ink the stamps, - four different colours randomly brushed over the stamp, then stamped the image onto scrap paper then stamped onto the card. This gives a more subtle image for the background - called "stamping off". The cut out leaves were attached with Dimensionals after using the bone folder to shape the leaves. I actually put one dimensional on top of the other for greater height and to allow the leaves to have more of a curve.
