Springtime Joy

It's Monday again which means it's my day to post on the One Crazy Stamper blog and with a new month comes a new theme with June's being Birthday. The weather here has been lovely, very warm and spring-like so the Fragrant Blooms image and Springtime Joy sentiment were a perfect match for the card. It's a fun image with lots of detail, even down to the little frog in her apron pocket. I used this for a friend's birthday and she loves spring and gardening so it's a good fit.

Live Life

This week I decided to  challenge myself. I wanted to use a "portion" of a larger stamp by masking it to "create" a new image. Masking a portion of a larger stamp gives me more ways to use a stamp I have purchased. 

I chose "Fragrant Blooms" from High Hopes Rubber Stamps and masked off this cute snail and flowers. 

After masking off the stamp and stamping only the portion I wanted to use, I coloured it with alcohol markers and Prismacolor pencils and cut it out using a circle die. Next I cut a piece of white card stock to fit my card and added some ink splatters with matching ink to create a bit of a back ground. This was added to some gingham paper from MFT after I inked all of the edges with Distress ink. 
I placed my stamp roughly where I wanted it on the card and with the help of my Misti stamped the sentiment. Some twine and sparkly enamel dots finish off my card.
