Beautiful Scales Card

Today, I get to share a simple yet elegant card I created using the 

Mermaid #3 Digital Stamp from IKEsART shop. 

Such a lovely stamp to color using my ShinHan Markers. 

The white layer, and the green layer are both distressed on the edging. On the white layer, I used the Blossom Mini Pigment Ink Pad. 

The green cardstock is Sweet Leaf by Close to my Heart. 

The "Just For You" greeting is from the retired Say It All stamp set by Close to my Heart. If you were fortunate enough to purchase it while it was available you will find it is so versatile.

Three Bitty Rhinestone Sparkles in the corner and that's all it took. 

I submitted my card to a few Challenges:

An Elegant, Yet Simple Card...

This afternoon, I created this quick card:

I utilized our ShinHan Markers to color in the main image. 

I popped the main image up off the card with a strip of our Thin 3-D Foam Tape. 

Our Thin 3-D Foam Tape comes in two widths. They are 3/8' and 1/4 ". You receive a roll of each in the pack. 

The sentiment "It's Your Day", is from our "Say It All" Stamp Set. 

Don't forget tomorrow is the last day to purchase the "Say It All" Stamp Set. 

This stamp set is part of the Stampaganza promotion that ends tomorrow as well. 

You can purchase two stamp sets and receive the 3rd set for free. 

The background scenery was created with ink. However, the polka dot paper and the paper behind the sentiment are both part of the Fundamental Paper Packs. 

I also used the ShiHan Markers to create the blades of grass in the scene. 

A Few Quick Cards From Our Little Dreamer Paper Pack...

Tonight, I started out my cards with a 6 x 6 square of the unicorn themed paper from our Little Dreamer Paper Packet.
None of them were very elaborate by design.
I wanted to show you something simple and quick. 

I cut the 6 x 6 down, in a One-Sheet-Wonder fashion.
I then played around with the pieces, layered most of them and came up with the cards you see here.

In addition to the Little Dreamer Paper Packet, I also used some of our Fundamentals Paper Packs, Our Whimsy Two Tone Cardstock Pack, and our Say it All Stamp Set. 

The Say It All Stamp Set is only available until July 31st.
If you haven't purchased one, don't miss out.
The set is perfect for most any occasion and is only $13.95, not bad for 19 phrases.

Most of the sentiments were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. 

"So Grateful" was stamped with the Lagoon Mini Pigment Ink Pad.
The Lagoon Mini Pigment Ink Pad is part of the Adventure Exclusive Inks Mini Pigment Pad Set.

One of the "Just For You" cards has sparkly embossing power on it.

I used VersaMark Ink to make it stick, then the Craft Heater to set the sentiment.

This particular card also has Tuxedo Black Memento Ink sponged around the edges.
