I Only Have Eyes for You!

 Hi friends!  Today, I am sharing a fun project that I created for the latest Artful Angel release.

A good friend of mine has a corgi, Pebbles, who is a true diva!  They moved away not too long ago, and I miss Pebbles, as much as I miss Kim.  When I saw the Woof You stamp set, I knew I had to make a card for her.

Corgi butts are one of the cutest things ever, so I had to color up this cute little ball of fluff with my Copics.  I paired my little friend with one of the sketches from Kendra's Card Challenge (KCC#8) and one of my favorite paper pads from Doodlebug.

I used one of the sentiments from the Big Love stamp set, and added a loppy bow with a paper flower.  The best part of the card is that it is a wobbler, so the floofy Corgi butt wiggles, just like in real life! 

I can't wait to send this to her.  She will lose her mind!  Make sure to head over to the shop and check out all of the amazing stamps in the latest release! 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy Birthday, Heifer!

 Hi friends!  It is release day at Artful Angel and we are celebrating with an Instagram Hop.  I am beyond excited to share the card I made with you, because if you know me at all, you will know that the Cownt Your Blessings stamp set makes my heart sing! 

I am obsessed with Highland Cattle, and my dream is to own one, as a pet, of course!  So, when I saw this stamp set, I was instantly in love!   

I colored this beauty with Copics, cut it out and set it aside.  I paired it with some papers that I had in my stash, and I embossed the panel behind the cow using the retired Pinewood Planks embossing folder from Stampin' Up.  I love this folder so much that I bought a second one when I heard it was retiring.  Just in case, you know....  I ink blended the embossed panel with Distress Oxide Ink and set it aside to dry.

I backed all of the panels with Merry Merlot cardstock and I punched two banners before adhering them to the center panel.  I stamped the sentiment in Merry Merlot ink.  I added some Distress Oxide ink to the edges of the sentiment panel and popped it up on foam dots.   I created a loopy bow from champagne metallic embroidery floss and adhered it to the back of the horn and then popped the cow up on foam dots.

Make sure to join us over on Instagram for the hop and be entered to win the entire release!   The Design Team has some INCREDIBLE projects to share!

I Can't Imagine Life Without You!

Hi friends!  Today, I am sharing the first of me projects for the upcoming Artful Angel release. 

I used a sketch from Kendra's Card Challenge to create my card.  If you haven't checked out this challenge, you should!  The sketches are fabulous, and at the end, you will have 17 cards ready to go.   I paired the sketch with the soon-to-be released Big Love stamp set.  This set is perfect for Valentine's Day or general romantic or friendship cards. 

I chose this sketch because it allowed me to combine several fun patterned papers from the Doodlebug Lots of Love 6 x 6 Paper Pad, also available in the shop.

This release is so much fun and I can't wait to share the rest of the cards that I created for it. Make sure to head over to the Artful Angel Takes Flight Facebook Group to check out all of the amazing projects from the rest of the Design Team!  They will knock your socks off! 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
