You are Moo-vellous

 A6 card made using Time for Tea Designs "Moovellous" stamp set, "Rainforest Green" prism ink pad, backing paper from The Craft Place "Origami Super Stack" (brought from the works) and coloured with Spectrum Noir Tri-Blends.


I started with an A6 card blank and covered it with Hobbycraft's "Brights" green card.
I used Hunkydory's nesting rectangle Moonstone dies to cut a piece of patterned paper so it was just smaller than the card. 
I then stamped, coloured, fussy cut and added two google eyes to the cow. Using the smallest rectangle in the nesting dies I cut a piece smooth white card and stamped the sentiment in "Rainforest Green", I used a green marker to add some dots around the sentiment and I made a green card layer for the sentiment using a slightly bigger rectangle die. 
Then I die-cut a scalloped circle using HDs Moonstone scalloped and straight nesting dies from green card, then a smaller straight edged circle from patterned paper, layered them up and stuck the cow to it. 
To finish I stuck the cow topper I made and the sentiment to the card using 1mm foam pads.

Plane Cute

A6 card made using For the love of stamps "Plane Cute" stamp set, "Plane Cute" for the love of masks, "Blue Lagoon" and "Arctic Mist" prism ink pads, Straight edge rectangle Moonstone Die and coloured using Spectrum Noir Tri-Blends.


First I die cut a piece of smooth white card and used the plane cute mask to blend the clouds in the background using blue lagoon prism ink, then removed the mask and blended over everything with Arctic Mist. While I have my prism ink pads out I used Blue lagoon and coloured all around the edge of the base card.
I then stamped, coloured and fussy cut the two people, the biggest plane, the smallest plane and the banner. I then stamped the "Fly away with me" sentiment onto the banner and stuck them all down onto the background. I used foam tape for the biggest plane and two people and tacky glue for the small plane and banner. To finish I stuck it all to the base card.

It's Hammy Time!

This little box card is made using Time for Tea Designs "Hooray Hamsters" Stamp set, Uniko's "Pinstripe II" stamp and coloured with Spectrum Noir Tri-Blends.


I stamped then coloured and fussy cut 2 different hamsters, the wheel and the sunflower seeds. I then stamped the "Pinstripe II" stamp using the "Slate Grey" prism ink pad to make the background. I then made a wrap out of acetate with 1" sides and ½" tabs for sticking to the background. I stuck ½" wide of scrap patterned card to the bottom and made a ½" wide panel of scrap white card, coloured in with "Jersey Cream" prism ink pad for the hamsters to be stuck to. Before I stuck the background to the wrap, I stamped the "It's hammy time" sentiment in the top corner using Spectrum Noir harmony "Jet Black" ink pad. I used foam pads to stick the wheel to the background and then stuck it all together. To finish I added a panel of white card to the back to add some stability and hide the acetate flaps.
