Hello friends. Larissa here today with two Halloween cards for you. I am using three stamps sets
today.


I used Paper Wings Productions:
Mujer Skelton Cling Stamp 
Calaveras & Corazons
Little Halloween Stamp Set

I also used:
White cardstock
Only Orange Cardstock
ATG
Distress Inks: Black Soot, Carved Pumpkin, Twisted Citron, Wilted Violet
Mini Mister
Nuvo Drops: Violet Galaxy, Apple Green and Ripened Pumpkin

I smushed the inks on a piece of plastic and misted them with water. I then put the cardstock on top to pick up the inks. I dried them with my heat tool.
I then stamped the images around the card on top of the ink.
To finish off each card I matted it on a piece of Only Orange cardstock and adhered it to a white card base. I also added a few Nuvo drops on the card. I kept it simple and didn't want a lot of bling to take away from the images.

This card used the Mujer Skelton Stamp and sentiment from Calaveras & Corazon.

This card I used Calaveras &Corazons image and sentiment from Little Halloween Set. 

I hope you enjoyed my post today. Have a wonderful day friends.

Summer Sugar Skull Card

Hello friends. You all know by now I love sugar skulls. So today I pulled out one of my favorite stamps sets to use for this card.
I am using the Calavera Cling Stamp.
I took a piece of white cardstock and stamped the image a few times on the front using Versamark ink. I then heat embossed the images using a detailed white powder.
I grabbed four of my favorite Distress Ink colors and blended them all over the card.
I used Picked Raspberry, Ripe Persimmon, Mustard Seed and Squeezed Lemonade. I blended each color into the next until there was not a harsh line.

I love using these colors for summer and I think they went with the sugar skull nicely.
I then used the Hola sentiment from the set Calvaras and Corazons set to stamp directly onto the card using Versafine Onxy Black ink. 

I hope you enjoyed my post today. Have a wonderful day.

Viva Fiesta

Hello friends. This week in San Antonio we are celebrating Fiesta. Fiesta began in the late 1800's as just a single parade to honor the memory of the hero's of the Alamo and the Battle of San Jacinto. Today it has grown into a celebration of San Antonio's rich and diverse cultures. We are celebrating the 125 year anniversary this year.   It runs for ten straight days. There are Queens of every order. There are events like Oyster Bake, Taste of New Orleans, a huge Carnival and NIOSA which is Night In Old San Antonio. There are three huge parades. The Texas Cavilers Parade is takes place on the San Antonio River. Then it is the Battle of Flowers parade and then the closing event is the big Fiesta Flambeau on Saturday night. It is a celebration for sure. If you would like to find out more information on Fiesta visit the website http://www.fiesta-sa.org/. You can follow me on Instagram and I will be trying to post pictures from NIOSA and the Flambeau parade. Muffins and Lace 

Today my card has the Fiesta theme. I used two different stamp sets to make a Fiesta theme cake. You all know by now I have a love of sugar skulls and a Fiesta event is not complete without one.

I stamped the cake on a piece of white cardstock and then stamped the sugar skull on the top. I colored the images with Copic markers. I only used bright colors since it is for a party. :) I didn't have a fiesta sentiment stamp so I hand wrote the words Viva Fiesta on the bottom of the card. To add a few finishing touches I added a few small rhinestones to the cake and sugar skull.

Paper Wings Productions products used:
Let's Eat Cake Stamp Set 
Calaveras & Corazons Clear Stamp Set 

Other Products used:
Memento Tuxedo Black Ink
Acrylic Blocks
Copic Markers
Rhinestones
White Cardstock
Black Cardstock
ATG
Copic MultiLiner 

I hope you enjoyed my post today. Have a fun day friends.

Sugar Skulls and Coffee

Hello friends. Today I put my two of my favorite things together to make a bright and cheerful Birthday card. Sugar Skulls and Coffee. Who doesn't love sugar skulls. If you are a fan like I am then you must have these stamp sets from Paper Wings Productions.
Today I am using
Calaveras & Corazons Clear Stamp set  and Playing with your Coffee Clear Stamp set.

I stamped the largest coffee cup twice onto a piece of white cardstock. Then I stamped the sugar skull in the middle of each cup. I colored both with Copic markers and then cut each one out with a pair of detail scissors. I took a piece of watercolor paper and trimmed it to 4 X 5 1/4. I painted a wash of color using Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors.

I adhered the coffee cups on to the watercolored piece using a liquid adhesive. To finish off the card front I matted the watercolor piece of cardstock on a piece of bright yellow cardstock then onto a white card base.

Amor

Hello friends. Happy New Year to each of you. If you know me you know I love Sugar Skulls.
I use to just have them out at Halloween but now I have them out and use them all the time.

Today I used Mujer Skeleton Cling Stamp.

I stamped the image onto a 4 x 5 1/4 inch white cardstock with black ink and colored it using my Copic markers. The card looked to plain so I took the border stamp from Calaveraz & Corazons Clear Stamp to the top and bottom of the card. I also colored them with Copic markers.

To finish the card front I die cut a bunch of little flowers and adhered them with a few sequins on the bottom sides of the card. 

For the inside of the card I just stamped the heart and left it blank with no sentiment so I could right my own message.


I hope you enjoyed my post today. Have a wonderful day friends. 

Hola

Hello friends. Larissa here today with an Hola card using two different stamp sets:
Calaveras & Corazons  and Mujer Skelton.

I stamped the Skelton onto a piece of 110 lb white cardstock and colored her using Copic markers.I then cute her out and matted her on a piece of black cardstock to make her stand out on the background.  I stamped the background with skeleton heads and hearts. I stamped the sentiment using a dark gray ink. 

The card front is matted on a piece of black cardstock and adhered to a white card base.

So much fun for a Halloween card or you can use it for Day of the Dead or Dia de Muertos.

Hope you enjoyed my card today. Have a wonderful day friends.
