Saints Football Shaker Card for a Teenage Boy

Hi there,
Today's card is one I made for my friends football mad son recent birthday! I use this (retired) football (soccer) set just about every year for his card and this year I went with a shaker card...

 I added some stamped footballs and mini sequin stars to the shaker part
TIP: When using stamped images in a shaker card add a dimensional to the back of a couple of footballs (in this case) and two layered dimensionals to the rear of another couple of images so they don't all stick and stack up together in the shaker!

 I used "Work Of Art" to make the "saints" stripes by heat embossing them in white.

Inside the card had a little decoration too.

 And one last look for today :-)

I still love a shaker card, don't you?

One Wild Ride Concertina Card

Hello there,
I have a card today that I made quite a while ago. I have held off sharing it with you as I was going to make a video to go with it but it keeps getting put off. Sooo, I'm biting the bullet and sharing the card for you today and if you'd like the video, let me know and I'll do it next week, I promise ;-)

 I used the Large Letter Framelits and gold glimmer card.

 With "One Wild Ride" stamp set, heat embossed in white.

And when folded to send it looks like this fitting into a simple, small box.

I stamped the lid of the box to match

One final picture of the card out. Remember, if you'd like a video then please do let me know :-)

Using the Boys Will Be Boys Robot by Stampin' Up! with a Watercolour Emboss Resist

Hello,

Firstly today can I say a really big thank you for all the kind and sweet comments I had yesterday on my mis-counted, so bonus sixth day in my {Five days of} Botanical Blooms Series ;-) I had the most likes ever on Instagram for this card and lots of nice comments on Facebook too, so thank you!

 So, today I have a new card for you, it's one I made a little while ago but I am really loving the watercolour look right now and it's really everywhere, so here's my attempt at watercolour emboss resist with that cute lil' robot from Boys Will Be Boys....

I stamped the robot with versamark on watercolour paper and heat embossed it in white before washing over using an aqua painter, first in Soft Sky, then Marina Mist and finally a touch of Night Of Navy to get this look.

Once it was dry I off-set the watercolour paper panel on the slightly larger Soft Sky panel.

I used Timeless Textures to make a subtle background behind the main image.

And added some silver thread. The sentiment is from the same stamp set.
TIP: To make this cute silver stud I coloured a perfect accents spot using a silver sharpie.

and a side view to finish today

Well, I hope you liked this card, I adore this stamp set and I have all my fingers and toes crossed that it will stay in the new catalogue!! This is one set I'll be keeping in my stash though, whatever ;-)
That's all from me for today, thanks for looking
