Sea Shells in Her Hair

Hello Nomad friends.  Today I have some final inspiration for Lost Coast Designs Under the Sea challenge.  The challenge closes 23.59 PST 31st May so I hope you will grab your stamps and join the fun.   I've used one of Lost Coast Designs fabulous mermaids, Butterfly Mermaid, and the awesome Bubbles Background.

 
I made a white embossed background with distress inks and Lost Coast Designs Bubbles Background.  I stamped Lost Coast Designs Butterfly Mermaid on pink card, coloured with distress markers and fussy cut her.  I cut the panel with a stitch rectangle die, mounted on a dark green base card and stamped the Lost Coast Designs Congratulations down the side. 
 
 
I hope you feel inspired to take the Under The Sea challenge?

Wedding Dangles

Hello Nomad friends.  I've made another paper clip tag.  This one has a wedding theme.  These are great for using up scraps.  I am using 7cm wide paper clips for these.  

I used a navy and a pink scrap, cut them to layer on top of each other with a fishtail shape.  The word Bryllup, which is Norwegian for wedding, were a printed border on the edge of a designer paper sheet.  I cut Poppystamps silver bells from a scrap of script paper and fussy cut a pre-printed Craft Creations wedding couple.  The metal heart is from Korthobby and I did a twine wrap around the top to add a little extra interest.

Scrappy Botanics

Hello Nomad friends.  The summit of scrap mountain is not in sight but browsing gently on the lower slopes yielded this tag.


I sprayed lime green packaging with gold paint and cut my tag using Stamplorations Luggage Tag die.  I cut green and yellow scraps with Poppystamps Orchard Leaves and Hampstead Bloom dies and arranged them in an ascetically pleasing manner.  I added red rhinestones to the flower middles, a piece of hemp twine and a preprinted sentiment.

Cycle Path

Hello Nomad friends.  I've made a card for a Confirmant, which is very popular here in Norway when the kids turn 16.  I had a play with some designer papers, dies and stickers and came up with this......

I used Papirdesign Sykel paper, both the blue frames side and then the brown cycle side on top.  I decided to cut the top layer with the Papirdesign scalloped Vipps die frame and also used some scraps to frame the Papirdesign Gratulerer 2 stickers.  I added the Konfirmant diecut on a scrap of kraft card.

LAN

Hello Nomad friends.  Needed a card for a gaming enthusiast.  Hunted hi and lo.  Hmmmmmmmmm..  Ah ha, old stash!  Little printed books from LOTV.  Perfect...

I cut around the monitor and games boxes so I could slip the sizzix mixed media dies behind and get a partial cut.  I edged the panel with blue ink and mounted it on a blue foil base card and added a SL pre-printed happy birthday greeting.

Purr-fect Pussy

 Hello Nomad friends.  I hope you are having an awesome Saturday.  I was reminded of a record I had when I was young about a blue cat.  Well, anything blue is good in my book.......... Gotta love a cute cat!!!

I used a pale blue card base and stamped the Rubber Dance grid and stitched stamp from Mixed Media Marks using Sky Blue archival ink.  The stitch stamp is one of the extra bonus stamps you get in the A5 clear stamp version of this set.  Then I stamped the Rubber Dance Cat and the Happy Birthday on white card using Night Sky archival, fussy cut and added them to the card.  

I hope you like my cute and easy card. If you feel inspired to grab your stamps and create something, don't forget to join the fun and link up your makes using Rubber Dance stamps in the Rubber Dance Stamping Lounge.  They are giving away a €10 voucher to the shop every month.  See you there!!!
