Greeting Card Kids valentine with Doily stamp

The detail on the Hello Doily stamp is amazing! For this quick and easy Valentine, the Greeting Card Kids little girl was stamped in Basic Black and watercolored with an aqua painter and ink pads (Bashful Blue, Daffodil Delight and Real Red), along with a Blush Blossom marker. The "L is for Love" is from the Grateful Greetings set. I CASE'd a card designed by Kim Score at http://craftprojectcentral.com.

I'm adding this to the color challenge at Pals Paper Arts here. It's all about RED!

Ink: Basic Black, Real Red, Bashful Blue, Daffodil Delight, Blush Blossom;

Teacher thank you card with Greeting Card Kids

When one of my downline brought a scallop circle easel card to our last American Ink gathering, I thought it'd be great for just about anything - including end-of-the-school-year thank you cards for teachers. And who can resist those cute kids in the Greeting Card Kids stamp set?

I used the Scallop Circle die for the Big Shot with Real Red card stock. I ran through a single piece, and then a folded half sheet (making sure the fold was below a few scallops so it would be connected), and the 3-1/2" circle die for the Whisper White and Real Red print patterned layers. I love the builder wheels - I used For Teacher, Elementary Alphabet, and School Colors.

The sentiment is from the retiring stamp set Family Phrases.

Beth's sweet Greeting Card Kids card...

I feel very blessed to have good friends who are fun, creative, and generous. Beth is one of those. She gave me this card, which I want to share with you. It uses the Greeting Card Kids stamp set with Pumpkin Pie and Wild Wasabi - a combo I think sounds strange, but looks great! I love the pile of hearts that go perfectly with the Word Play greeting. Thanks Beth (and thanks for all of the chocolate too!).


Stamps: Greeting Card Kids, Word Play;
Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Wild Wasabi;
Paper: Pumpkin Pie, Very Vanilla, Wild Wasabi, Subtles Designer Paper plus scraps for the hearts;
Accessories: Basic Pearls, heart punch, dimensionals.

Greeting Card Kids Christmas card...

This Greeting Card Kids make & take was what I brought to our recent American Ink gathering.

It starts with a Very Vanilla card, then features some Scallop Edge Borders in Perfect Plum, under Riding Hood Red and Love Letters dsp.

The 2-1/2" Circle is a new punch coming out Sept. 1 in the Holiday Mini. I love these larger punches - they make layering so easy!

The main image was stamped in Basic Gray ink and colored in with ink pads and an aqua painter.

The sentiment is from a stamp set called Contempo Christmas.

Wicked Greeting Card Kids card...

I'm loving this Greeting Card Kids stamp set. I decided this little witch and the bat paper from the Wicked Fun dsp pack were right up my alley.

I started with a Whisper White card and stamped the Sanded background stamp in Rich Razzleberry ink.

The bat paper is single-sided and the bats are fuzzy. So cool! I layered a Scallop Trim Border punched piece of this Spooky design (same paper pack) over the bat layer, then got to work on the little witch.

She is stamped in Basic Gray ink and colored in using a blender pen and ink pads - Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, Rich Razzleberry, and Blush Blossom. She's layered on Basic Black and then Old Olive card stocks. I used Soft Suede and More Mustard markers for her hair and broom.

I added a sparkly black Antique Brad. The "Boo" (Tiny Tags stamp set) was stamped in Rich Razzleberry and sponged around with Basic Gray ink after being punched with the Medium Jewelry Tag punch, then added to the brad with linen thread. Finally, I cut one of the bats out of the paper and adhered it to the front with dimensionals.
