3 for 3

Today I have 3 cards for 3 challenges.

First is for Cardz 4 Guyz #50 – Get Well Wishes.

I used a stamp set from Art Impressions called ‘Doggy Kisses’ that I’ve had in my stash but never inked up – shock horror! I inked up the sausage dog and coloured him with my Stampin Blends. I then stamped the paw print to make my background panel.

Isn’t he just the cutest?

Second is a card for Seize the Birthday #196.

For my card, I chose the top left diagonal of birds, flowers, stencil. I used my Stampin Up ‘Free as a Bird’ stamp set which I coloured with my Stampin Blends and fussy cut out. I popped it up on a stencilled background, some ribbon and a sentiment banner.

Thirdly is a card for Cardz4Galz #127– Stamp on Kraft.

I saw a super cool card by Marlene McDeavitt where she masked off portions of her large stamp and used the gaps for her sentiment. I loved this idea and decided to give it a go for this challenge. I used a background stamp from Catherine Pooler Designs ‘Cottage Garden’ and the sentiment is from CAS-ual Fridays ‘Shenanigans’. I added a few white dots to the flower in the bottom corner so that it didn’t look too boring!

Well, that’s it for today. Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Hey there! I’m a card-making enthusiast with a passion for creativity that knows no bounds. Currently, I’m fortunate to be a part of four fantastic international card design teams, where I get to explore my craft and connect with fellow artists from all corners of the globe. It’s amazing how the world of card making can bring people together, and I’m constantly inspired by the diversity of styles and ideas that come my way. Beyond my card-making adventures, I lead a pretty busy life in the learning and development field, where I work full time as a Learning Lead. I thrive on helping others grow and reach their full potential, and it’s a role that keeps me on my toes and constantly learning. When I’m not immersed in the world of work or crafting, you can find me on the netball court, coaching and sharing my love for the game with a bunch of amazing individuals. So, whether I’m crafting, guiding professional development, or coaching on the court, I’m all about embracing lifes colorful and creative possibilities! Thanks for stopping by my corner of the web, and I hope you enjoy exploring my card creations and more.

  1. Great cards Tristan. All are just lovely. Thanks for teaching us about masking off sections on a large stamp, the effect is amazing. I have that stamp also from the days when I was a member of Stamp Nation, so I might give it a try.

  2. First, the dachshund card is adorable! My favorite breed! Next, what a beautiful bird card and can’t believe you fussy cut this out so well. I have mustered up the nerve to attempt that yet even though I have that paper too. The dotted background is a nice backdrop. Thanks for playing along with us at Seize the Birthday!
