Hello hello and happy Monday!

Hope you are ready for another FABULOUS week!  I'm sharing a card using one of the Ai at Michaels set.  Check out these styling girlfriends, aren't they are fabulous?  Hehe!  Especially with their beautiful hats!

I chose the paper from My Mind's Eye fine and dandy.  And I colored the ladies with colored pencils.

Beautiful cottage, new release!

 Hello Ai friends, I'm so excited to share a card using the new Cottage set.  For the card, I cut out the card base which measures 5 1/2" by 4 1/4".  Then I stamped the Cottage from the Cottage & Die set (SKU# 4746), then die cut the window and die.  

Note:  you can keep the two dies together, which will match the cottage stamp perfectly!  :)

I colored the cottage stamp with colored pencils, I also added a little bit of color for the background such as the grass, walkway, and the sky. 

I wanted the main focus to be the beautiful cottage.  So, I kept it simple but I did added some glossy accent and some glimmer.

For the inside of the card, I used the new Good Friends set (SKU#4742).

Super cute Ai Penguins and Ai Reindeer set at Michaels!

Hello hello and happy Thursday!

 I'm super excited to share two sets of cards featuring the new Michaels Ai stamp sets from Hampton Art.  They are now available at your Michaels.

For the first set of cards, I used the Ai Penguins set (SC0716).  I absolutely adore these little penguins and the snowman, so cute!  I just want to give him a big hug.

I decided to color the images with colored pencils and die cut with a stitched oral die.

Here is a closer look of both cards.

For my second set of cards.  I used the Ai Reindeer set (SC0715).  

I also colored the images with colored pencils, but I wanted a non-white background.  So, I used Pan Pastel to add some colors behind the images (hint: Pan Pastel can be erase with a eraser before it's sealed), to seal the Pan Pastel, I used the pearl white spray mist, plus it also added a little bit of shimmer. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  Can't wait to see your Red and Evergreens creations!
