A balloon from the “Birthday Wishing” set made the perfect accessory for this, now birthday card. Such a versatile stamp and die set.

The design was simple 1)Copic Color the images 2)Die cut with coordinating dies 3)Die cut two more times out of white card stock to stack behind the colored image 4)White heat emboss HOORAY! sentiment 5)Mount image on #100 Arctic card stock and add the glitter!

AND

In case the one you would love to honor on Mother’s Day isn’t necessarily your Mother, this SENTIMENT was perfect!

Who doesn’t love a time to be pampered and spoiled! I thought of my special Auntie, not a Mom herself, she always considered her nieces and nephew her children.

Colorado Craft Company-April 2021 Reveal

April 10, 2021

Colorado Craft Company’s April release features more adorable images by Anita Jeram, best known illustrator for the children’s classic “Guess How Much I Love You,” by Sam MacBratney. These images, just in time for Spring include designs for graduations, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and all occasion celebrating art, friends and dreams coming true.

Choosing one of the Father’s Day sets, “FOR DAD” (#AJ472) https://www.coloradocraftcompany.com/product-page/aj472-anita-jeram-for-dad for the first card sharing today. The set features two card sized images with the sweetest little mice critters. Also included are 7 different sentiments that make the perfect match for your greeting!

Using Tim Holtz Distress Cracked Leather Cardstock for Mouse Dad’s chair was super fun and easy using distress ink blending. I did go a bit crazy and made that chair up in several different “leather” colors! After stamping the base image and making my leather chair 🙂 I also fussy cut out the little mouse baby and “inlaid” him into the chair. Copic Markers made the coloring quick and easy. Hoarded in one of my craft drawers was tissue paper from Father’s Day past that was a newsprint with a stock market pattern. After stamping the image on the tissue paper, fussy cutting it out, I glued it to the main image.

I would totally buy this chair in gray leather! Hahaha!

The image is popped up with dimensionals, layered onto a rectangular die cut that had been backed with fun foam and all mounted on a 4.25 x 5.5″ 110# card stock that was covered with the decorative plaid paper. The sentiment was white embossed on black card stock.

And, because I had DAD cards on the brain, and barbecue and really because I wanted to color those adorable CHEF pants on the Foxy daddy, I made another with “DAD’S COOKING.” https://www.coloradocraftcompany.com/product-page/aj475-anita-jeram-dad-s-cookings Simple watercoloring and a little colored pencil enhancing made this card quick and easy. Framed with another plaid decorative paper, mounted on 4.25 x 5.5″ card and VOILA!
