TRHDHappilyEverAfterStamp
Here’s my first project:
TRHDHappilyEverAfter1A
CARD RECIPE:
  • stamp the images on Neenah solar white 110 lb card stock.
  • color the images with Copic markers (or any coloring medium of your choice)
  • fussy-cut the image or die-cut using Brother Scan N Cut2.
  • cut an A2 size Bristol smooth white card stock and use masking or painter’s tape to block about an inch and a half of the card stock.
  • ink up the top portion of the card stock using a sunburst stencil with some distress oxide inks.
  • remove the mask and ink up the bottom of the card stock with some black soot distress oxide inks.  This will create the “pavement”.
  • use distress sprayer to spray some water on the inked up background and blot it dry with some paper towel.
  • adhere a strip of black card stock on top of the “pavement”.
  • use a heart die to die-cut the top and adhere some acetate sheet to cover the window.  add some foam adhesive to create your shaker well.
  • add some iridescent sequins as the shaker element and adhere a white card stock on top to close the shaker card.
  • adhered this piece on an A2 size card base.
  • adhere the colored image to finish the card.

To finish my card design, I added a red heart sprinkle on top of the couple’s hands.  Here’s a closer look:

Here’s my second project:

TRHDHappilyEverAfter2A

CARD RECIPE:

  • just like mentioned above, stamp and color images and either fussy-cut or use Brother Scan N Cut to die-cut the image.
  • ink up a piece of Bristol smooth white card stock and use a clouds stencil to create the sky.
  • to create my “garden” scene, I used a Lawn Fawn portrait tree die and die-cut a piece of 110 lb. smooth white card stock.
  • color the leaves with some green Copic markers.
  • adhere this die-cut piece on the colored background with some foam adhesive to give it a little dimension.
  • adhere the leaves on the tree using liquid glue and foam squares.
  • adhere the image on the card.

Here’s a closer look:

To finish my design, I added the white glittery bow on the tree and added Stardust stickles to the girl’s veil.  Here’s another look:

  12. Even the tree is decorated. Your card is really great, and your coloring is nice. I can see the shining sun reflecting off of the man’s hat and clothes.
