Right as Rain - Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis

Penny Black Wings and Vases

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS friendship card created with Penny Black supplies.

I stamped the 30-704 Wings and Vases image and colored it with Copic markers and colored pencils.
I cut the image with its corresponding die set.
I stamped the 30-700 Carefree Wishes sentiment on to a white cardstock panel.
I added light blue ink to the panel in the area where the vase of flowers would be placed.
I cut two butterflies from white cardstock using a die in the 51-610 Hydrangea set.
I added the flowers and vase as well as the butterflies to the panel with foam adhesive.
I added the assembly to a dry-embossed cardstock base.

Paper Smooches – Sunflowers

Hello! I created another card for the current Paper Smooches challenge whose theme is HAPPY. Shades of yellow and orange paired with teal, as well as sunflowers, make me happy!

I cut the sunflowers from cardstock in shades of yellow and orange. I cut their centers from a brown linen-textured cardstock, which I backed with white cardstock.
I glued the assembled flowers on to a teal cardstock background.
I trimmed the flowers that overlapped the background and adhered a white cardstock frame.
I stamped the sentiment on to white cardstock, which I cut with a circle die.
I framed the sentiment with a circle cut from red-orange cardstock.
The sentiment circle was added with foam adhesive.

Spellbinders Sunday Drive

Hello! Today I am delighted to share two cards – wedding and birthday – created with the new Spellbinders Sunday Drive die set and the Hitched add-on die set.

The Sunday Drive set includes the pieces to create the convertible car, as well as balloons, HAPPY letter dies, a package, and a Birthday license plate.

I couldn’t resist creating a red convertible and used primary colors to tie in with the patterned paper.

The Hitched die set works with the Sunday Drive set to create a wedding card. I used the flowers and foliage from the set, along with dies from the April Small Die of the Month set to cut the heart balloons. The set also includes dies to add tin cans to the bumper, which I didn’t use.

I glued strands of floss behind the balloons and tucked the strings in between layers on the car.

Supplies:

Lawn Fawn Spring Scene

Today I am sharing a spring-themed “Hello” card created with Lawn Fawn products.

To begin, I stamped the images and Copic colored them. I wasn’t sure how I’d combine them at first.
I laid out the pieces and saw that the scene needed to be a landscape one.
I created the background with the Stitched Cloud Backdrop and a grassy hill cut with the Meadow Borders.
To fill the sky, I die-cut the sentiment with the Speech Bubbles die.
