Sunny Day Crafting Challenge #59 R is for Ribbon

It is time for a new challenge over at Sunny Day Crafting and this weeks challenge is R is for Ribbon.  Here is what I made for your inspiration.

I started with some Kraft card stock cut and folded to make a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" top folding card base.  I added some patterned paper cut at 4 1/8"X 5 3/8".

For my leaf, I took a piece of white card stock and sponged on some Orange Blush Nuvo Mousse.  On top of that I added some Persian Red Nuvo Mousse and let it dry.  I then die cut my leaf using the Tim Holtz Layered Bigz Leaf die and embossed it with the texture fades embossing folder that came with the die.  I love how the leaf turned out.

I added some chocolate ribbon to the patterned paper.  I then embossed my sentiment using some Metallic Copper WOW embossing powder. Once the sentiment was done I adhered my patterned paper to my card base.  Next I adhered the leaf to my patterned paper using some Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.  This is my new favorite liquid adhesive.

Now it is your turn. Show us your projects made using ribbon using the linking feature on Sunny Day Crafting blog.

Happy Easter

Deanna here with an inspirational post for the Dies R Us inspirational blog.  Today I have an Easter card for you.

My card base was white card stock cut and scored to make a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card.  I added an aqua mat cut at 4" X 5 1/4" and the pattern paper mat cut at 3 3/4"  X 5".

Next I die cut and embossed my Memory Box Bunny Silhouette die out of some yellow card stock.

Next I cut out my Easter eggs using the Poppystamps Easter Egg Party die set.

I chose to use the two smaller eggs for my card.  I cut them from white card stock and painted them with some Nuvo Mousse.

The Nuvo Mousse is water soluble. To paint with it I put a small amount of the colors I wanted to use on an acrylic block and spritzed them with water.  I then used a small paint brush to paint my eggs and let them dry.

The last thing I die cut was the Happy Easter sentiment using the Memory Box Perky Script Happy Easter die.

Finally I was ready to assemble my card.  I adhered all the mats onto my card base. I then adhered the bunny image with some foam tape.  Next, I tucked the Easter eggs into each side of the bush with the bunny and finally added my Happy Easter sentiment and the card was done.
