Birthday Crowd

Good morning all. I hope you are having a good start to the week. Today's card was inspired by the multi-image stamps that some of the design companies came out with last year. 

I've seen ones where there are multiple cats, or snowmen, but I wanted something more personal, so I had a go and created my own.

I used the Three Amigos stamp set from Mama Elephant, this is an oldie, but still one of my favourite sets. The little critters are great without being too cutesy, so I could easily use it for a man.

I stamped my images by masking the main ones and then stamping again behind them, then I just kept masking and stamping until I had filled a 7 x 5 card blank.

I stamped or wrote on all of their little cards and then added colour with Copic Markers. Then I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment onto a strip of black card and added it to the bottom of the card.

Hope you like it, take care and I'll see you soon.

Three Amigos - La segunda parte (part two)

Good morning, hope you are all having a good week. As the title says, this is the second of my Three Amigos cards. I do love this set and can see me using it loads.

This time I didn't use the dies but stamped directly on to the card and coloured them with Copic Markers.

I used the small sentiments that come with the set for the characters signs, 

then I used a block sentiment from a Crafters Companion stamp set called Camden Town, all stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

I gave them a faint outline with a blue Copic, to make them stand out, and then layered the piece with some silver/grey card and put it all on a 7 x 5 card blank.

Hope you like it, take care and I'll see you soon.

Three Amigos

Good morning and happy Easter Monday. Don't you just love 4 day weekends? they are the best, I think all weekends should be this long lol. That would make for much happier weeks ;o))

Anyway, today's card is made using the Mama Elephant set called The Three Amigos. I have wanted this set for some time now and eventually bought it on sale, yay. 

I  stamped the characters with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and coloured them with Copic Markers, then I cut them out with their corresponding dies.

I used a couple of the sentiments that come with the set and one from the Mama Elephant Mini Messages set, and stamped them with Jet Black Archival Ink.

I used a small shaped card blank and randomly stamped all over the front with a tiny arrow stamp that is also in the set, and then raised the three amigos up on foam pads in the centre.

Hope you like it, take care and I'll see you soon.
