I Am Roses + Polka Dot Orchard: She Was Born To Be Free

Happy Saturday everyone! Today, it's my turn to post for I Am Roses, and I'm combing their AWESOME flowers with this fabulous digital stamp from Polka Dot Orchard called She Was Born To Be Free. This image really spoke to me, and I had to create a card with her.

Copics:
Skin: E11, E13, E15, E18
Hair: E42, E47, E49
Lips R56, E04, Clear Gel Pen
Nails: R24, R27, R29, Clear Gel Pen, Silver Sharpie
Flowers: V12, V15, RV04, Y04, BG32, BG13

I used paper from Doodlebug Design, and finished off the card with these gorgeous flowers from I Am Roses. The R43 Roses are my fave and I use them frequently as the bigger flower on my cards. I also love all the floral sprays they carry to place above the ribbon bow. 


Remember, you have until JUNE 8th to link up your project to the current I Am Roses Challenge. Be sure to use a minimum of 3 I Am Roses products on your card to qualify for a prize. I can't wait to see what you make!

Jaded Blossom: MERMAID KISSES

Happy Friday everyone! Today, I'm sharing a summery, floral card featuring MERMAID KISSES. Remember, the current CHALLENGE this month at Jaded Blossom is FLOWER POWER! You have until June 7th to play along with us!

I love the beach and usually pick somewhere tropical to go on vacation. Since vacation plans are on hold for a while due to everything going on, I decided to transport myself there with this card. I colored this gorgeous Mermaid using Copic Markers and then added Gold paint to certain areas.

Copics:
Skin: E000, E00, E01, E02, E11, E13
Hair: BV08, V17, V15, V04
Pink: RV02, RV06, RV09
Teal: BG10, BG13, BG15, BG78
Tail: BG18, BG13, BG10, V04, V17, RV02, RV04, RV09
Gold Paint Pen

To create the card, I cut two large stitched rectangles using the RECTANGLE DIES 2. On one rectangle, I used the following colors to create a sunset sky: Scattered Straw, Ripe Persimmon, Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet and Chipped Sapphire. 

On the 2nd rectangle, I used Broken China and Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide ink to color half of it. Then I used one of the wave border dies from the TROPICAL DIES to cut it out. I also cut a second wave border from the white half of the rectangle. I splattered water over the blue distressed piece and adhered it on top of the white wave exposing the white border at the top. Next I placed the mermaid partially behind the wave with her hair toward the front. Both the wave and mermaid are raised on foam tape. To finish off the card, I added  gorgeous I Am Roses flowers and enamel dots.


For more inspiration head over to the Jaded Blossom Blog! And be sure to check out the Jaded Blossom Store for all your stamps and gift giving supplies. They have various Cutting Dies to make party favors along with Favor Bags and Boxes.

Hugs,
Rosemary

The Greeting Farm Stamp Feature: 3 WISHES


Happy Thursday everyone! We are on Day 2 of Stamp Features for the MAY Release at The Greeting Farm, and today I'm featuring a set called 3 WISHES. This set features 5 characters, 1 monkey, 4 sentiments and several more accessories! It's an awesome set perfect for all sorts of occasions. When I saw it, I immediately thought of Aladdin! So here is my Aladdin inspired card. 

Copics:
BOY: 
Skin: E00, E01, E02, E11, E13
Hair: C2, C7, Black
Hat: RV02, RV04, RV06, RV09
Vest: V06, V15, V17
Belt: E25, E27, E29
Pants: C1, C3, C5, Colorless Blender
GIRL:
Skin: E000, E00, E01, E02, E11, E13
Hair: C2, C7, Black
Shirt/Pants: BG10, BG13, BG15, BG18
Carpet: R24, R29, R59, B23, B26, B29
Gold Paint Pen
GENIE:
Skin: B32, B14, B16
Hair: C2, C7, Black
Sash: E13, E15, E18
Gold Paint Pen

So if you look at the stamp set you will see that I did some altering to create Aladdin and the Genie. I stamped the girl genie that is standing and used her bottom half for Aladdin. I just cut him at the waist and glued him to the top of the girl (after trimming off her head). To create the bald genie, I just wiped off the top part of the stamp before stamping so I could draw in a bald head. Then I used the hair from genie on the magic carpet to create his ponytail. 

The background was created using the following Distress Oxide Inks: 
Blueprint Sketch
Wilted Violet
Picked Raspberry
Ripe Persimmon
Dried Marigold
Scattered Straw


I had so much fun creating this card! Be sure to head over to The Greeting Farm Store and grab your favorites. You're going to LOVE them all!

The Greeting Farm Stamp Feature: CHEEKY PROUD!


Happy Wednesday everyone! We are on Day 1 of Stamp Features for the MAY Release at The Greeting Farm, and today I'm featuring a set called CHEEKY PROUD. I love the entire Cheeky line, and the fact that this one is a military gal just made me love them even more! My dad was in the Army so I made her an Army girl, but you could adjust the colors to represent various branches of the military. This time around I did some paper-piecing from an Army Digital Paper Pack I found on Etsy.

 Copics: 
Skin: E000, E00, E01, E02, E11, E13
Hair: E42, E47, E49
Shirt: E42, E43, E44
Belt: E42, E42, E44, C3, C5
Boots: C3, C5, C7, Black
Camo Hat/Pants: Paper-pieced

The background papers and hummer clip art are also from the same Army Digital Paper Pack. I created a speech bubble in word, printed it out and then stamped one of the sentiments from the Cheeky Proud set on to it. I fussy cut it out and raised the sentiment and Cheeky Proud on foam tape for extra dimension. 


Be sure to head over to The Greeting Farm Store and grab your favorites. You're going to LOVE them all!
 
Hugs,
Rosie
