I Am Roses + Conie Fong's Bauble Gnome

Happy Wednesday friends! I'm back today for I Am Roses with a Christmas card featuring Conie Fong's Bauble Gnome. You all know that I love gnomes and the ones from Conie have the sweetest faces. I think he's so cute! I printed the image on Copic Xpress It Blending Card, and colored him with Copic Markers. 

To finish off the card, I added gorgeous colorful flowers from I Am Roses. I love the tri-colored Christmas R43 Peonies so I made those the focal point. I then added Red Cherry Blossoms, followed by S10m White Small Achillea Cottage, and Tiny Green Leaves.

Remember, you have until August 8th to link up your project on the IAR Blog. 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!

Hugs,

Rosie

Conie Fong: SANTA WITH GIFT SACK SHADOWBOX CARD

Happy Tuesday friends! July is coming to an end, and I'm closing out the month with some more Christmas in July cards. For today's project, I created a Santa Shadowbox Card that fits inside a 5x7 envelope when folded flat. That adorable Santa is a digi stamp from Conie Fong called Santa with Gift Sack. Isn't he adorable?! I printed him on Xpress It Blending Card and colored him with Copics.

 

To create the shadowbox scene, I used an older stamp/die kit from Diamond Press called Christmas Shadowbox. It came with all the dies to create the shadowbox, along with stamps to decorate the inside. I just swapped out the Santa using the one from Conie. 

I hope you grab some images from Conie Fong and share your creations in the Conie Fong Art and Design Facebook Group. Conie also created a separate group to share your drawings from her YouTube Channel called DRAW WITH CONIE if you happen to give drawing a try. Head over and join the Draw With Conie Facebook Group to share your drawings. We would love to Ooooh and Aaaaah over your work!

Jaded Blossom: HAVE A SSSSUPER BIRTHDAY!

Happy Friday everyone! I'm back today with a card featuring some awesome Jaded Blossom Dies. I love that Jaded Blossom has been introducing die-cut animals in their product line. This set called Gnome Dies: Pet Add Ons comes with so many different pets. I've been itching to create something with the snakes, so here you go! 

I know you're worried about that turtle, but on this card they are all friends! I used the Tree Swing Die for the branch. The grassy area was created using Border Dies 2. The sentiment is from the Life Is Tweet Stamp Set.

There are still a couple more days to take advantage of the huge SALE happening right now!!  You have until July 20th to stock up on all the items from your Jaded Blossom wishlist!! 

Remember, we have a current "ANYTHING GOES" Challenge until August 2nd for a chance to win a free stamp set! You don't have to have a blog to play along. You can load your card to the Jaded Blossom's Garden of Creativity Facebook Group and then add your link from Facebook. There are instructions HERE to help you!

Have a great weekend!

We just had an awesome travel release for July so I continued with the theme and created a cruise card. I have several family members and friends who love the cruise life, so I had to incorporate the cruise ship from Gnome Dies: Travel Add Ons onto a card. It fit perfectly in the Photo Frame Die with the Mini Girl Gnome Die.  

 

The shell she is holding is from Gnome Dies: Mermaid Add Ons. The sentiment is from the Sky Is The Limit Stamp Set.
