The Amy Doodle Of It All . . . : August 2018

You are Beautiful stamp and stencil card

So far it's been a week of floral fun, and I hope to add one more yummy floral card to the mix! I wanted to create something using the florals from our You are Beautiful Stamp Set and our Layered Floral Stencil. I came up with this glittery stenciled card background, and a tag featuring the floral stamp.

To create my background paper I used mint green cardstock, and I used some Abandoned Coral Refill Distress Ink to color some embossing paste (one dark one lighter). I spread the darker paste over the floral shape part of the Layered Floral Stencil. Once that was dry I lined up the center detail part of the stencil over what I had just done, and spread the lighter colored paste. When it was completely dry I added the circle stamps all over the paper using Cracked Pistachio Distress Ink.

I stamped my flowers in Tea Dye Distress Ink and colored them with Copic Markers
(Flowers R22,R32,R20,E00 Leaves G00,BG34)

I think the copper glitter paper really works with this color palette. It reall makes the coral colored flowers really POP!

Thanks so much for taking a peek at what I have created today. Dont forget to check out our blog all this week for lots of inspiration!

You are Beautiful Stamp Set

Taking the risk of sounding corney . . . I wanted to share with you a little story about the You are Beautiful Stamp Set.

I created it because I really wanted to put a stamp set out there for crafters that had the kind of sentiments that YOU would want to hear. It's absolutely wonderful to receive a card that let's you know someone is thinking about you, but imagine getting a card that says "You are beautiful strong, and enough" or how about "Take time to do what makes your soul happy. You deserve it". I wanted there to be sentiments that would truly raise someones spirits or remind them how important they are.

I took my color choices from this Doodlebug stripped paper from
their 6x6 Kitten Smitten paper pad.

I've experienced challenging times in my life, as I am sure we all have I thought those moments can be hard to get through, and if a friend or family member was experiencing the same thing I would want to tell them something special to help them through it. Imagine a time where you had a deeply trying personal time in your life, wouldn't it have been nice to hear:

"Do you realize how many events and choices, that had to occur since the beginning of time, leading up to the making of you? You are perfect exactly the way you are."

I hope that this stamp set can help communicate the words you would like to tell a friend or loved one. I hope you find it as special as I do.

I hope you this set inspires you to send a loved one or friend your own card with a heartful sentiment. Be sure to check out our blog all this week for lots of inspiration!

Cupcake card you could almost eat!

This is my last cupcake card, I swear!
Okay we both know that's a lie. We determined early in the week that I indeed have a cupcake obsession problem! Here is my final card using Designer Cupcake Stamp Set.This one had to be a bright and happy card because who doesn't want a happy looking card for their birthday?

I used my copics to color this sprinkle cupcake, and for the sprinkles I stamped them and cut them out. I know right now you're thinking this girls NUTS! But to be far fussy cutting is a relaxing activity for me so I love doing it...LOL! If you didn't want to do that then I would stamp the sprinkles in between the frosting lines so you can avoid all that.

I used the "Happy Birthday" sentiment on the inside of my card and colored each letter in to bring all the color from the front into the inside!

I hope you enjoyed my Cupcake fun and be sure to check out our blog all this week for lots of inspiration!

I wanted to create an easel card so it could stand up and you could see the yummy cupcake. I also stamped the sentiment and embossed it with white embossing powder.

Tropic like it's Hot!

It's Tropical Party week and I couldn't resist making a pineapple card!

I used Doodlebug Fun in the Sun 6x6 paper pad for this card. I love the tropical prints and I think they go great with the Tropical Party Stamp Set. I used Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink to shade the outside of my circle. This creates a little frame for my pineapples.

To make the glasses on the pineapple look refelective I used Copic markers.

When you want that reflective look you simply take 3 colors to create a sky, mountain range, and ground. In this sample I used B00-sky, E77-mountain, and E42-ground. You are going to draw a blue line at the top, a zig zag mountain range line in the middle, and a light brown line on the bottom for the ground. You can add a white gel pen line or plus shape as a highlight. That's it!

Be sure to see our blog all week and check out more wonderful cards created by our design team!

Tropical Party Week!

It's Tropical Party Week! I am kicking things off with some Tropical goodness! I absolutely love the versatility of this Tropical Party stamp set. You can make so many different cards with this set.

I used our Background Building Stencil & Stamps to create this next card

Of course I wanted to make a flamingo card because she's adorable! But I also wanted to make some cards using the smaller stamps as well.
For my first card I used the Layered Leaf Stencil to create this bright paper.

I used the leaf stamp to create a tone on tone paper to go with my pink and green leaf paper. I of course added a ton of rhinestones, and colored my flamingo with Copics.

For my next card I wanted to create some patterned paper using the smaller stamps. I stamped the smaller stamps randomly on kraft paper, and colored them in with Prismal colored Pencils. When I was done I took a white colored pencil and outlined each stamp. I think it really makes the images POP!
