Birthday Card ~ Snowman Birthday {2nd Post}

This little snowman is here to help celebrate the birthday of someone special.

As you cat tell from the second picture he is holding some hearts

which I replaced with the cake and present.

Sometimes I like to challenge myself to create with an image

for a different occasion than the artist had in mind.

Of course I will use him with the hearts, too in a card real soon.

*Card base 5.5 x 4.25 in.
*Snowman digi called #523 Heart Snowman from Dilly Beans Stamps.
*Sentiment, cake and presents from the Doodled Occasions stamp set from Verve Stamps.
*Small hearts cut using a EK Success punch.
*Copic markers V17, B05 and Y21.
*CTMH Grape Sherbet stamp pad.
May your day always be filled with love.

Christmas Card ~ CAS Cuties

I wanted to keep this card clean and simple so the cute little penguins would stand out.
I started by printing the penguins, colored them up then fussy cut them out.
I added them to a simple Christmas red strip, then a slightly wider white one, then a slightly wider Christmas green one before adding it to the Christmas red base.
I stamped the sentiment then hand cut the banner.
I finished it off with a little bow.

*Card base cut at 5.5 x 4.25 in.
*#525 Three Penguins digi from Dilly Beans.
*Sentiment from Verve {came free with my order}
*Sentiment banner cut by hand.
*Memento Tuxedo Black stamp pad.
*Copic markers G07, 100, YR04 and R37.
*Ribbon from Offray.
May your day always be filled with love.
