Believe in Yourself

Hey everyone, Deanna here with a new project for you from Dies R Us.  Here is what I made.

I love the sentiment that comes with this little stamp and die set.  The stamps and the die are both from Lawn Fawn.  I stamped the little deer onto some watercolor card stock and colored him with my Spectrum Noir Aqua pencils and blended him with a water brush.  After I had him colored I die cut him out using my Big Shot Machine.

My card base is white card stock and and scored to make a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card base.  I cut some yellow card stock at 4" X 5 1/4" for my next mat.  The patterned paper is cut at 3 3/4" X 5".  I then cut another piece of yellow card stock at 1 1/2" X 3 3/4" and ran that through my big shot to emboss it.  I then adhered it to my card front.  I used this to help ground the little deer so he didn't look like he was floating in plaid land.  Finally I stamped my sentiment with some Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.

The Sky's the Limit

Hey everyone, it is Deanna here again back with another  Die R Us post.  Here is what I have for you today.

For this card I started with white card stock that I cut and scored to make a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card base.  Next I cut a piece of watercolor paper at 4 1/4" X 5 1/2".  Using some light blue watercolor paint, I painted the entire piece of paper so it looked like the sky.

Next using Lawn Fawn stamps and matching dies I stamped my balloons and clouds onto watercolor paper.  I colored the images with some watercolor pencils.  Once I finished coloring the images I die cut them out.

Once I had the images cut out I stamped my sentiment with some dark blue ink onto the sky blue watercolor paper.  I then arranged the clouds and my balloons onto the paper and adhered them down.  Finally I adhered the sky watercolor paper to the entire front of my card.
