Emphasize A Theme With Techniques: Funny Friday with Art Impressions

Hey there friends, it’s Shari Carroll here with you for another edition of our popular Funny Friday series featuring Art Impressions products! Today, I’m working with a hydrating lady holding her tumbler.
I’ve decided to give her an extra blast of fresh H2O with splatters of metallic paint and a streaming background. I hope I haven’t ruined her make-up!!

It’s always fun creating cards using different elements. Check out my video below to see how this all came together. Enjoy!!

Hi everyone! I’m so excited to be back on the Simon Says Stamp blog to share a card with you all! Today’s card features some of the adorable products from the new Lawn Fawn release.
I used the new Terrific Tulips dies to create a blooming garden of tulips. The tulips are die cut from yellow, grey, and different shades of pink cardstocks to add a variety of colors to the scene. Another way to add variety to the flowers is to have some that are barely blooming (like the red one on the left) and have others fully bloomed (like the pink one on the right).

To create this card, I started by attaching the patterned paper to a white card base and then added the Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Frame with double sided foam tape. After that, I added the leaves and stems along the bottom. I left a few of the leaves to stick out along the sides to make it look like the flowers are bursting out of the card. After deciding the placement that I liked, I added the tulips in place with foam tape.
For the sentiment, I used the Scripty Mom die cut out of metallic gold cardstock, and glued that to a piece of vellum cut from the Scripty Mom Outline Add-On. The vellum helps to make the sentiment stand out against the background. The “I Love You” is from the Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment Love stamp set and was white heat embossed onto black cardstock. I trimmed the sentiment into a rectangle and attached it to the card with double sided foam tape.

To finish, I glued a few sequins at the top and used Copic markers to add some details to the flowers. This card turned out so sweet and I can’t wait to give it to my mom!
