Happy Camper card & Week 2 of Home Sweet Home Challenge | Art Impressions

Hello my friends!  Today begins week two of Art Impressions Home Sweet Home challenge!  For my inspiration card, I've used the so fun Happy Trails set.


Here are the steps for my card:
  1. Stamp the camper onto some masking paper and on the front of a top-folding 5-½" x 4-¼" card base.
  2. Fussy cut the camper on the masking paper and apply the mask to the other stamped image.
  3. I used THIS masking stencil to create the framed, inked background.  These are so helpful in centering and inking a background!  I used Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean and Mowed Lawn Distress Inks and blender brushes.
  4. Remove all of the masks and Copic color the image.  My Copic colors are listed below.
  5. I used my green Copic to add in some grass sprigs here and there.
  6. Add a die cut sun to the top left corner.


I stamped the sentiment in Versafine Onyx Black ink and die cut it with a Flag Double Stitched die.  I die cut a second one and colored the edges with a yellow Copic to layer behind the sentiment.  I used my Tiny Attacher stapler to connect them and popped it up with some thin foam squares.  I used a white gel pen to add some highlights here and there on the camper and the chair.  I also used a red pen to add the dots to the curtains.

Art Impressions Birthday Card Challenge Week 2

Hello friends!  Have you entered into Art Impressions Birthday Card challenge?  Do you know you can use any stamps?  However, if you use Art Impressions' stamps, you get more votes!

For my inspiration card I've used the fun and silly Lifetime Set!  I used sentiments from the Birthday Laugh Lines set, as I thought these were just perfect!  This card is a bit different as the "inside" of the card is the balloon die cut shape!  Read on!


I stamped the guy with Memento ink and colored him with Copic markers (listed below).  I fussy cut him out (I didn't get too fussy, LOL!)   I used a balloon die (all supplies are listed below) on a folded card, keeping the top edge of the balloon just beyond the fold of the card.  I stamped the sentiments with my MISTI in black ink.  I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment on the front with black embossing powder.   I then added the balloon die cut to a 4" x 5-¼" striped paper that was adhered to a green panel that is A2 sized.


The guy is popped up with 3D Foam Squares.  I sparkled up the balloons with a clear sparkle pen, and then added some Glossy Accents for the shine.  To finish, I added a few enamel dots and tied a piece of twine to the top layer of the balloon (will help the recipient to open it.)


I hope I've inspired you to join in our challenge and can't wait to see what you create!!  You have until July 17 to add your link on Art Impressions challenge blog!  Click HERE!  Thank you so much for stopping by!
