BYSH Cardmakers Sketch #67 March Challenge

 

Hi everyone. I'm back with my first project for the BYSH Cardmakers March Sketch #67 challenge. Here is a look at the sketch.

I can't wait to show you my project. I think my little penguin is so cute.

I kept my card fairly simple while following the sketch. My pattern papers are from Doodlebug Designs Oh What Fun paper pad. My penguin image is from a Gina K. Designs stamp set, I colored him with some Ohuhu Markers after stamping him. I then die cut hin out using the matching dies. I added him to my square using a bit of foam tape.

My sentiment stamp is from a Waffle Flower stamp set. I used a sentiment die from my stash to cut it out. The sentiment Is adhered directly to the card front with liquid adhesive. I added some little clay white snowflake elements from an embellishment pack in my stash.

Thanks for stopping by for a visit. Now, I hope you will head on over to the BYSH Cardmakers blog to check out the rest of the inspiration by the design team, then head on over to our Facebook group and submit your project utilizing this month's sketch.

I'll be back soon with my other project using the March sketch. Until next time.

BYSH Cardmakers Falling for the Holidays 2025 Linky Party Project 2

 

I'm back sharing my second card for the Falling for the Holidays Linky Party.

My card is a standard A2 card featuring products from our sponsors Gina K. Design and Kat Scrappiness, Taylored Expressions, Thermo-O-Web, and Pink and Main.

I used the Gina K. Designs Holiday Floral and embossed a cream panel cut to 4" X 5 1/4". Next, I stamped the tree from the Gina K. Designs and Simon Says Stamp Shimmering Christmas Stamptember Exclusive onto some Taylored Expressions Brussel Sprout cardstock with Versamark ink. I added some Ranger Gold embossing powder and melted it with my heat gun. I then die cut it out with the matching dies.

I took a piece of red tone on tone pattern paper from my stash and die cut it using the second biggest Stitched Rounded Rectangle die from Kat Scrappiness. I added some foam tape from Therm-o-Web to the back of the red pattern paper rectangle then added it to my embossed cream cardstock panel. I used liquid adhesive to add my gold embossed tree to the red pattern paper mat. I then used more liquid adhesive to attach my card front to my A2 white card base.

I used a foilables panel from the Christmas Sentiments pack. I foiled the sentiments with some gold foil and cut it out with a sentiment die from my stash. I attached the sentiment to my card with some thin foam tape. Finally, I added a few gold confetti pieces from Kat Scrappiness to the front of my card.

Thanks for stopping by. I can't wait to see what you make. Be sure you link it up for your chance to win one of the great prizes offered by our sponsors.

BYSH Cardmakers Spring into Christmas Linky Party Day 5

 

Today's card for Day 5 of the BYSH Cardmakers Spring into Christmas Linky Party features products from two of our sponsors, Lawn Fawn and cardstock from Gina K Designs.

My cardbase is a heavyweight blue cardstock from Gina K Designs. I scored and folded it to make an A2 cardbase. I used the Winter Wonderland Window dies and die cut them out with some white glitter cardstock. I then used just the arch die in the set to cut a piece of the English Breakfast pattern paper from the Favorite Flannel 6" X 6" paper pad to behind my window.

Next, I stamped my images from the Winter Birds stamp set with some Versafine Clair Nocturne ink and heat embossed them with clear embossing powder onto some Bristol Smooth cardstock. I colored my images with my Zig Real Brush Markers. Once my images were dry, I cut them out with the matching dies. For the snow on the tree branch I used some Shimmering Ice Acrylic Structure Gel from Kat Scrappiness. It gave it a nice shimmery look. 

To put my scene together, I added some liquid adhesive to the back of the pattern paper I adhered it to my card base. I then added some thin foam strips to the back of my window. Before adhering down my window, I glued my tree branch down because I knew I wanted it tucked behind the window. I then added my window. I then adhered my bird to the nest and added him to the end of the branch with some thin foam squares and liquid adhesive. Next, I added the snow to the branch, also with liquid adhesive, then added the bird with a thin foam square. My mama bird is adhered to the card with some liquid adhesive.

I stamped my sentiments, which are from the same stamp set, with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink. I hope you liked the card. Thanks for stopping by. Head over to BYSH Cardmakers Spring into Christmas Linky Party  and link up your project.

BYSH Cardmakers Falling for the Holidays Linky Party Day 3

 

Welcome to day three of the BYSH Cardmakers Falling into Christmas Linky Party. My project features some products from one of our sponsors, Gina K Designs.

My card base is heavyweight white cardstock cut scored and folded to make a standard A2 card. Next I took some Gina K Design blue cardstock and used the snowflake stamps from the Wishing You stamp set and stamped them with Versamark ink and white embossing powder to create my background.

I then used the White Silver Pearl Powder from Kat Scrappiness to add some shimmery sprinkles to my card panel.

Next I found a print and cut image of a snowman I liked and printed him and cut him out with my Cricut Joy Xtra. I added him to my card front with some foam tape.

Next I stamped my sentiment also from the Wishing You stamp set on some white cardstock. 

To finish the card I added some Twinkle Stickles to the pompom, hat brim and around the snowman.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see you soon at the BYSH Cardmakers blog.

BYSHC Christmas in July Linky Party, Day 1

 Welcome to Day 1 of the BYSH Cardmakers Christmas in July Linky Party! Here is my inspiration project for you.

For my card, I started with some heavyweight white cardstock that was cut, scored and folded to make a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card base. 

My pattern paper is from Echo Park. My pattern paper is cut to 4" X 5 1/4". I matted that paper on some black cardstock cut 1/8" larger than the pattern paper. The red candy cane paper is the B side of my main pattern paper. It is cut at 1" X 5 1/4". I used a Spellbinders border die to cut some gold glitter cardstock and adhered it to the left side of the candy cane paper.

My sentiment is from Gina K Designs, one of our wonderful Linky Party sponsors. The stamp set is called Wishing You Mini Set. I embossed my sentiment on black cardstock using Gold Fine Detail embossing powder. I then added some snowflakes and other items from the stamp set using white embossing powder. I added my sentiment banner to my card using foam tape. To finish up I added some gold pearls.
