Cards- Loveland Show Day 3

Hi All,

I have quite a few posts to put up, I just have been busy around here since we have a few weekends off.

I stamped the card below with the Versa Fine Onyx and colored with markers. I added the Quickie Glue pen and sprinkled with Sparkletts. I added dots of 3D Lacquer to the middle of the poinsettias and the Ruby Red Sparkletts.
Here's the Jade and Chocolate Brown color combo. The great thing about the paper combo (Chocolate Brown Cardstock, Bronze paper and Jade paper) is that there are ink pads to match them perfectly. You would use the Jade and Chocolate Brown Brilliance pads to match. I stamped the Glue Pad with the Filigree for the band across the card and sprinkled the Bronze Sparkletts glitter.

Cards- Puyallup show day 4

Hi All,

We are in Syracuse, NY right now. We had a fun show. Met lots of great folks excited to see us again.

Here is a continuation of the cards made by Krista. This is the fireplace pop-up card but turned sideways to create a flower box. Use your imagination to create all kinds of backdrops for your creations.

I had a picture of the cover, but somehow it got deleted from blogspot. I am not back at the office to reload. The best part is the inside.

This is a simple card with Mimi. I like how the mini polka dot was used to make more bubbles. You can add Fun Fluff for frothey bubbles, Lacquer for shiny bubbles and glitter for the glittery bubbles.

This cute card is for you chocolate lovers. This is truly the fat-free, calorie-free version:) You can use the magenta and chocolate brown color combo to resemble raspberries and chocolate.

Cards Akron Show Day 7

Hi All,

Here's a Mother's Day card idea. This is the cover of a pop-up card. I used the Wedding petit fours stamp set for the background, along with the Circle Dot stamp. The Circle Dot stamp was stamped with the Glue Pad and glittered. I used the Mini Polka Dot stamp in the Versa Magic in Aloe Vera. The band was stamped with the Mini Flower and Leafy Vine Swirl.
Here is the inside. This is the 3 Columns pop-up card kit. I used the Elegant Spring Flowers for the "garden". I used the same stamps I used on the cover of the card. You can change the sentiment and create this into a Thank you card, Thinking of You card or Wedding.

Cards Akron Show Day 6

Hi All,

This is a vellum card. It has such a delicate look to it. The style is great for weddings, Mother's Day, showers, babies, etc. Just stamp a background with the VersaMagic Sea Breeze and Aloe Vera on white cardstock. I used the Mini Polka Dot. Then on the White Vellum paper, stamp the Solid Scallop Dot Rectangle in various colors. I used the Sea Breeze, Aloe Vera and Brilliance Orchid. I heat set it. I then turned it over and embossed the Elegant Spring Flowers and Thanks a Bunch stamp using the VersaMark and sprinkled on the Silver Embossing Powder and melted it until it was smooth and shiny. I turned it back around to the rectangle side and colored in the flowers. I used the ATG adhesive gun and applied the adhesive to the rectangles. I then took another vellum paper and overlaid the polka dotted card. I cut out the embossed rectangles and placed them on the overlay. I used Quickie glue and Lime Sherbet Sparkletts for the shimmer. Add a bow for the finishing touch!

This is a variation of the card.

I stamped my own background for this card. I enjoyed using the Thank You circle stamp as a decorative touch. Notice the Mini Polka Dot in the background. I then used the Thank You circle stamp and stamped the Chickie with Flower stamp. I Fun Fluffed the little guy using 3D Lacquer and Fun Fluff. I also used the 3D Lacquer and glitter for a dimensional effect on the flowers. I used the 1 1/2 inch MV-02 Marvy Punch.

Cards Akron Show Day 2

Hi All,

Mother's Day is just around the corner. I had fun making a cheerful card for the occasion. What better than give your Mom a garden patch flowers and one that does not need to be watered. This is using the 3 columns pop-up card kit from DeNami Design. You can get it here http://www.denamidesign.com/
This is the cover I made for the card. You can just make this cover as your actual card if you prefer. I used the Eggplant cardstock and the Platinum Brilliance ink pad. I then used the 3D Lacquer on the vine leaves and sprinkled it with the Amethyst Sparkletts glitter. It gave it a dimensional effect that was stunning.
I stamped the white band with the same vine stamp in the Imperial Purple VersFine pad and added the same Amethyst Sparkletts glitter. I also added dots of 3D Lacquer and sprinkled the Silver Sparkletts and then did dot for the Green Sparkletts glitter.
I stamped the circle stamps with the circle sentiments in the Imperial Purple VersaFine. I used the Pink MV-04 Marvy Punch and the Giga MV-05 Marvy Punch with the Pearl Cardstock for the outer circle.



This was a really sweet card. I stamped the same vine stamp as the Mother's Day card above to create the background. I used the Sea Breeze VersaMagic pad and then added the 3 D Lacquer on the leaves and sprinkled with the Blue Ice Sparkletts glitter. I layered the band with the Blue Ice cardstock, the Pearl cardstock and the Bronze cardstock to create the band. I stamped the white band with the Leafy Sprig, which is part of the same collection, and stamped some in the Sea Breeze and glue pad then sprinkled the Blue ice Sparkletts. This allowed it to look different than the background.
I stamped the Double ring and Circle sentiments "wedding" in Onyx Black VersaFine. I then used the Wedding petit fours for the focal design. I then colored in with markers and added glitter with the Quickie glue pen and Sparkletts. I topped this with the Iridescent edge ribbon.

This is a cheerful card using the new little polka dot stamp. I then used the Large Swirl background with the Glue pad and Ruby Red glitter. I then layered the band with black, red and white. I stamped the white band with the polka dot border.

I stamped the circle dot stamp and various ladybugs with the VersaFine Onyx Black pad and colored in with markers. I finished it off with the 3D Lacquer for the glossy touch.

Notice the little "charms" on the bow. I used the one inch punch and stamped the tiny ladybug using the "Bitty Bugs" petit fours set. You can use the various bitty bugs for a background along with the little polka dot to create a variation for the background. Stamp on a white cardstock and color in for more contrast.

I have more cards to upload, so stay tuned!

Cards Glendale Show day 1

Hi All,

We left the snowy, cold and wet of Seattle to the warmth of Glendale, AZ. The weather was like a perfect summer day in Seattle. What a nice treat to warm our bones a bit.

We were welcomed by kind stampers in AZ. Many remembered us from last year and we met new folks.

Here are some cards I made at the show.

I did a fun variation and instead of a horizontal card, I made it a vertical. It worked great with these long flowers. It makes for a fun surprise when you open it up.

I used the Bronze Sparkletts glitter to create a dimensional glittery look. I also used the Jade and Chocolate Brown Brilliance pads on these corresponding pearlescent papers. All supplies available from http://www.denamidesign.com We are still trying to switch over to the new servers, but the shopping cart will be up soon. Yay!

Come back tomorrow for more cards.

Cards Indianapolis Show day 3

Hi All,
This is day 3 in the follow up for the Indianapolis show. Below I have some fun cards for the warmer weather coming up.
I stamped these flowers on the new scallop polka dot stamp. After stamping the flowers over the background in VersaFine Vintage Sepia and coloring it in with Tombow markers, I re-inked the background stamp with the Glue Pad and sprinkled the Blue Ice Sparkletts glitter. Simple card, but cheerful. It's stamped on the White cardstock. All supplies available at http://www.denamidesign.com/ except the markers.
I made a pop up card with monkeys before, but I never do it exactly the same. Here is a version of it. I used the 3D lacquer on the bunch of bananas on the cover.
