These are so addictive to make and whip up in not time at all.  After picking a few of my favorite photos I began to design them all. 

 

Matching colors and adding just the perfect accents.  They are FUN to make!

once in a thick chipboard material, they are nice and sturdy.

Starry Birthday

Good Morning!

Back again on the Tutti Designs Blog.

 

I have a bright sunshiny Birthday card to share with you today!

 

 

 

 

 

I used these fantastic Nesting Stitched Stars from the Tutti Designs Store.  They are from the November 2016 Release.  A classic design that one NEEDS to have in their stash!  I cut 2 different sizes for each stitched star in pretty bright colored Designer Paper.  The larger star was also cut from a chip board like stock, which makes for a sturdier die cut.

 

 

My sentiment was stamped in Melon Mambo ink and the heat sealed using Clear Embossing Powder.  Always a must in my craft room to seal that ink in when using Vellum. 

I am a smudge magnet!  Gina K Designs Birthday Blessings stamp set.
 Candy Dots and Enamel Brads for accents.

 

This car measures 3 1/4" x 7".  Perfect for adding a wee bit of cash inside!

 

 

Here's what I used:

Father And Daughter

Good Morning!
Back again on the Tutti Designs Blog.
 

 

This card was made with love, truly.  I have created it for my favorite son in law, Tim! 

(yes, you guessed it, I do only have one....but he is still my very most favorite!) 

My daughter, Lori, and her husband, Tim, just became first time parents

 to a beautiful little girl, Penelope Joy, on October 17th. 

When I saw this fabulous die in the Tutti Designs Store, I knew I had to have it!

 

Now, on with the show!

 

 

 

This card measures 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" and I will make a matching envelope for mailing.  I used this beautiful Father And Daughter die from the May 2017 Release.   I die cut it twice from Black card stock, layering the 2 together.  This gives the die a little bit more oomph for depth and dimension.

 

 

I displayed my die cuts and sentiment on hand cut panels and at a wonky angle.  I feel this gives the card a bit more interest too.  Adding a few accents using Sheer Ribbon and all manners of Adhesive Rhinestones.

 

 

 



 

 

 

I know this is a vision of what's to come.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Beneath the sentiment stamped in Raven Black ink,  I also stamped many little hearts in Pink Pirouette ink.  Gina K Designs stamp sets; Hand In Hand and Mommy To Be Diva.

A labor of love.

 

 

 

Here's what I used:

 

 

 

Tutti Designs # 327 Father And Daughter

Baby Blessings

Good morning!

I made this card for my daughter's in-laws, Dave and Colleen.  They sent Tom and I a beautiful card all about Grand daughters and I finally had the chance to create one for them.  I hope they like it.  We are so lucky to be able to co-grandparent our beautiful Penelope Joy.

Get Well Wishes

Good Morning!

Back again on the Tutti Designs Blog

 

Today's card is a Get Well Wish using the fantastic Tutti Designs Nesting Stitched Banners die. 

 

 

It's clean.

It's simple.

It contains get well wishes.

 

 

 

 

 

I used 2 different sizes of the Nesting Stitched Banners dies,

one for my image and one for my sentiment. 

By just turning the die it creates an entirely different look, perfect for my Get Well Wishes. 

My tree was stamped in Walnut Oxide ink (as was my sentiment) and my pretty Fall Leaves were created by using a few different colored Copic Markers. 

 

The Pointillism Technique;

Pointillism /ˈpɔɪntɪlɪzəm/ is a technique of painting in which small, distinct dots of color are applied in patterns to form an image.

 

 

 

 

 

 

A couple of swipes with the wide end of my Copic Marker to create the ground beneath.  Adding a bit of texture using a Wood Grain Embossing Folder.  Orange and White Gingham Ribbon, Doily and Adhesive Pearls for accents.  I always buy White Adhesive Pearls in a bulk package.  Using my Copic Markers I can match any color to my card.
