A Trio of Father's Day Cards with Alcohol Inks and Honey Bee Stamps - 2018

I got inky with my alcohol inks and played with colors until I had a few backgrounds that I liked.

Then I cut the top layer of the "Happy" die by Honey Bee Stamps out of gold cardstock and the second layer from velum.

The "Father's Day" is from Lawn Fawn's "Happy Happy Happy" stamp set heat embossed in white on black cardstock.

Mother's Day Card with Hero Arts - 2018

Here I used the layering Love stamp from the January 2018 Hero Arts My Monthly Hero kit to create a mother's day card for my grandmother.

First I cut a piece of white cardstock using the Gina Marie Designs Loopy Rectangles.  Then I stamped the first layer of the stamp with Catherine Pooler ink and heat embossed the second layer with some Ranger gold powder.

Valentine's Day Card with Avery Elle - 2018

When I saw this stamp set "Lava You" by Avery Elle, I knew that I needed to make a card with it.  This is a Valentine's Day card I made for my husband which was perfect since we live in the shadow of an active volcano.

Supplies used:

Stamps: "Lava You" by Avery Elle; "Paradise Palms" by Newton's Nook

Dies: Zig Zag Rectangle by Lawn Fawn; Inside & Out Stitched Squares by MFT

Other: Zig Clean Color Real Brushes

Just Because Hello with The Ton - 2017

This was one of those cards that just came together perfectly and I love how it turned out!

I stamped the sunflower from The Ton's "Fresh Cut Sunflowers Coordinating Outlines" with VersaMark and then heat embossed with Gold embossing powder by Ranger.  I colored it with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers and then fussy cut it.  Next I stamped the layering leaves and stem from the "Fresh Cut Sunflowers" set and die cut the panel with a stitched rectangle.  The sentiment is from My Favorite Things "Polynesian Paradise" and was stamped and heat embossed the same as the sunflower.
