Grateful for You

by Andrea Shell on Oct 16 2024

Hi there! It's Andrea back to share a card featuring several products from Picket Fence Studios' October release. You might recognize that cute girl from an earlier release: She's from the Freckle Friends: Penelope Pumpkin stamp set. I colored her with Copics, cut her out with the coordinating dies, and added white highlights with a gel pen. The marbled background was created with the new A2 Marble Notebook Cover stamp. I stamped it in pink onto white cardstock and diecut it with the new Beyond Basics: A2 Rectangles & Cover Plate Dies. I attached the background to a white card with double-sided adhesive. Using the new A2 Ripped Notebook Cover Plate Die, I diecut both white and peach cardstocks. Onto the white diecut, I stamped the small floral spray from the Autumn Bountiful Beauty set twice in a soft orange ink and a sentiment from the same set in black. I trimmed off the top portion of the peach diecut, leaving just the ripped edge. I adhered the white piece with foam to my card and tucked under the peach strip. I affixed my colored image with foam and added some gems from the new Thunderstorm Gem Mix for a little sparkle. For the finishing touch, I wrapped black twine around the top of the card.

Lots of Thanks: Coloring Diecuts with Copics

by Andrea Shell on Jul 23 2024

Hi there! It's Andrea with you, and today I'm sharing a colorful card featuring some new products from Picket Fence Studios' July release. I am loving the fall vibe of this release! I couldn't resist this cute squirrel from the Layered Fauna: For the Love of Mushrooms Squirrel Die! Isn't he adorable?! I diecut the base from white cardstock and the detail layer from several colors of cardstock. I added shading to the detail pieces with Copic markers before gluing them to the white base. That awesome background is from the new Autumn Scenery Fabulously Glossy A2 Card Fronts. I chose to frame it with the Trees Silhouette Cover Plate A2 Die, which I cut from white cardstock and colored with Copics. The grass is from the Scene Building: Grass Tufts Die. I diecut it from white cardstock and colored it with Copics, also. I adhered my background panel to a cardbase and attached the trees and grass with foam tape. I stamped a sentiment from the Freckled Friends: Penelope Pumpkin stamp set with gray ink and diecut it with the coordinating dies. I glued the sentiment to my card and popped up my colored image with foam, finishing with some white highlights. Thanks for stopping by!
