Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
I’m playing along with Retrosketches #177 with a card that showcases the Thank You die cut from Avery Elle. I cut the sentiment three times for added depth.
Even though we’re almost headed into fall, I ended up creating a card with more spring/early summer colors! The blossoms and leaves were stamped with Mama Elephant Lollipop and Blush, VersaMagic Turquoise Gem and Sea Breeze, and Fresh Ink Tuscan Olive.

Today, I’m sharing a card created for the Retrosketches Challenge featuring the Avery Elle Red & Goldie stamp set, with coordinating Elle-ments dies.
This past weekend, I was able to spend time practicing my Copic coloring (using the lessons from the Online Card Classes Copic Markers class). I’ve had the Avery Elle Red & Goldie set in my collection for a while, and the images are just adorable. I created the speech bubble on my Silhouette intending to stamp a sentiment on it, but then decided to go bold with the die cut Thank You.

Today, I’m sharing a card created for Retrosketches #156. As soon as I saw the sketch, I knew I wanted to use some of the new Reverse Confetti release products.
I stamped and Copic-colored the bees from The Buzz and used their Confetti Cuts to cut them out. I popped them up with some dimensional adhesive over their trails. I stamped the sentiment onto a die cut circle which I adhered to a sun, cut with Sun ‘n Clouds. I added clouds, also cut with Sun ‘n Clouds and a scallop border cut with the new Double Edge Wonky Scallop Border.
Today, I’m sharing a card crafted with Reverse Confetti stamps and Confetti Cuts combining the sketch from Retrosketches #154 and the color combination from ColourQ #281.
I stamped the sentiment from Arrows ‘n Elements and cut it with the banner in Tag Me. The orange banner was cut with the small tag in Tag Me. I stamped the flowers from Love Blooms, masking after stamping the flower in the bottom left corner.
I’m playing along with Retrosketches #151 and Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge. I couldn’t resist a vase of bright flowers to chase away a dreary overcast day!
