I have another fun card made with stamps from the most recent Purple Onion Designs release. Brody, the lifeguard, has left his Lifeguard Chair and is carefully watching as Lilo is playing in the water. The waterline is made with the new background stamp.
The coloured panel has been cut narrow to leave for a sentiment being stamped directly onto the card base. The sentiment is from the new sentiment set.
Another day, another card. You could almost say I’m on a roll now that I’ve managed three in a row! Today I’ve used one of the older stamps from Mo’s Digital Pencil, Baby Fairy Butterfly.
I’ve used a text stamp by Mathia Designs to go with and some die cut clouds.
I am surfing in today to let you all know it’s that time of the YEAR! Yup, that’s right! Purple Onion Designs is out with their summer release and it is full of summer, water, sand and Stacey Yacula. Can it get any better? I think not! There are so many amazingly cute characters that it took forever to choose what to colour up first.
But I did choose in the end. I chose Kalei, the awesome surfer bunny! I masked the Rip Curl together with the Ocean and Shoreline background stamp (a very clever stamp that can be used two ways).
Also, the Seaside sentiment stamp set is a must have. So many great sentiments! I stamped it in a colour similar to the coloured sky to keep it reasonably neutral.
New release day at Picket Fence Studios (this and following links are affiliate links) today! And I’ve got a fun card to show you. I’ve used the new 1.5″ Connected Squares Shaker creator die to create a diamond shaped pattern of windows for the cute girls from the The Best Dirt stamp set. I deliberately chose a completely different colour for the sentiment this time. The sentiment is from the Espresso Yourself stamp set. To finish off I used loads of foam pads to raise the panel and then some sequins from the Lake Tahoe Embellishment jar.
Here is a close-up of the colouring and the die cut windows for each girl.

There is a new Picket Fence Studios release tomorrow. Are you ready for it? Today I want to show you want of my favourite dies from the past release, the Tropical Cocktail Shaker die, so you know to grab this one as well tomorrow, together with the new stuff. I’ve made one card with it as a shaker cocktail, and one using just the plain die.
First off I’ve cut out the glass loads of times and glued them together to make the shaker card. The Cosmo sequin mix was perfect for it. I then coloured up the little pieces with my Copics. The background behind is just a fun play around with various glaze. For the bottom layer I ran this rich, deep coloured card stock together with the Tree Bark 6×8 stencil through my die cut machine to get a lovely embossed look. The sentiment has used the same coloured card stock to match in with the sequin mix I used.
Here is a fun card using just the plain outline die. I’ve cut it out in different colours and glued them partially on top of each other. I’ve kept the card mostly white to make the die cuts and embellishments stand out, so the sentiment is kept neutral to go with. View the list of all the products at the end of the post.
