Today's post is for the Die Cut Diva's challenge. Our challenge is Layer it and our wonderful sponsor is DiesRUs



My first card this month...

I started by stamping my image (Stampendous) on watercolor cardstock and used distress markers with a water brush to color it in. Once it was dried I die cut as much of the image I could with a stitched oval die from Lawn Fawn. I used two layers of foam tape to pop my image piece up from the card. 

Looking forward to see what you share with us for out Layered or layer it challenge this month!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!

Supplies:

Lawn Fawn- stitched oval dies

Ranger- Distress markers

Stampendous- image

Wink of Stella- with water in it 

HMFMC- all white

Hello everyone I'm here with my last card as a guest designer with HMFMC! Maybe someday I'll get the honor again. In the mean time the challenge is all white. You may color your image, but that is the only color allowed.

I love the mouse in the cup I think he's so adorable. I layered white and some vellum for my layers, die cutting the corner of one layer for some texture on the card. I kept the coloring very light so it would distract form the white theme of the challenge very much.

Here is a closer look of the corner with  the die cutting, this was the first time I've used it! :-)

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!!!

House Mouse Thanks (HMFMC #204)

Hello all! I'm stopping in with a card for the HMFMC #204. The theme this time is fall/Halloween. I hope you head over to the House Mouse & Friends blog to see all the wonderful cards from the design team. Don't forget to play along for a chance to win some prizes!

I couldn't help but use this image, the mouse floating with the leaf is too cute!!! I wanted the leaf to be vibrant with fall colors, I love the way it turned out!

I stamped the image and colored it with copics. Cut out the leafy square and matted the image panel on top. Added an oval die cut with the sentiment and a few enamel dots to finish it off.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day!!!

Today I'm sharing a card that I thought I would link to the House of Cards challenge. This is my first time playing with them and I thought this card would work for the Food/color theme.
I'm also adding this to House- Mouse and Friends (CODE HMFMC199) blog for the anything goes challenge... first time to play there too. ;-)

I stamped and colored my images. I gave the icing dimension by putting some liquid applique on and drying it with my heat gun. The peppermint candies have glossy accents, the gumdrops have stickles and the jellybeans have a little wink of stella on them.

Thanks for stopping by, have a great day!!!
