Shaped Card

 

This week at Make My Monday Challenge, we are doing shaped cards, so anything other than a rectangle or square, for my card I have made a star shaped card. I had this Miss Superstar from Hetty Clare Stamps already colored, I cut off the background of stars behind her., so my card was based around her and being a rock star. So I went with the green for the base as that was the color for her shirt and socks. I then decided to add a smaller white panel in the same shape to the card and I used a stencil I got from Stamp Anniething called Sparkle and Shine, I also decided to add this cute little hippo from  the Rock on set from Lala Land Crafts, which is also where I got the sentiments from  then to add a bit o sparkle I had these very tiny star gems so added a few here and there.

Huddle

 Hi Everyone, this is my latest inspiration for Sheepski Designs, this is called Huddle. I just think they are so cute, I have colored them with copics then cut them out and made a scene around them. 

The scene started with an embossing folder by the Paper Studio, which I inked on the front side with Night of Navy Ink and ran through my Vagabond, that gave me the basic color for my sky I added some white glitter paper I had made since I couldn't find any in the stores. which I did with Winter Wonderland Embossing powder, Versamark ink, and white paper, the Winter Wonderland embossing powder has glitter in it. so works perfectly. Anyway I then added the penquins onto the paper and then used a white gel pen to add some dots for snowy sky. I cut around embossed letter and then placed it onto a piece of night of navy card stock.
