Save 25% Off Tools

Today's cards are from the Piece of Cake stamp set and Piece of Cake Honey Cuts Dies from Honey Bee Stamps and the  Jumbo Tag Die from The Stamp Market.  I rarely reach for yellows, but it looks good on this card; what do you think?


I'm still working on my Copic Marker skills, I have a feeling this could be happening for the next 20 years.  I'm slowly building up my stash, I think part of my problem is not having all the markers in each color value.  Slow but sure, I will get there.

Beautiful Day Bundle by Altenew

For a while now, I have been saving pins from Pinterest with the Altenew Beautiful Day Bundle.  It is an absolutely gorgeous set and I had to order it.  I like that it can be used as just an outline, or multiple layering options for colored inks.  
I inked this baby up and she did not disappoint.  I will be playing with this one a lot!



For the flowers, I used Altenew inks in Blush, Rouge and Velvet.  FSJ inks in Banana Cream, Pineapple Smoothie and Summer Days.  Altenew inks in Olive and Moss for the leaves.  The background is stamped on Tin Pail cardstock with black ink.

Cottage Bouquet Shaker Card

I joined a 30 Day Marker Challenge on Instagram and these flowers were one of my coloring days challenge, so I turned them into a card.  I'm trying to learn how to properly use Copic Markers...there is so much to learn!!!

I love a good shaker card and this little jar by Lawn Fawn makes a super cute one!

I combined the jar with the FSJ Cottage Bouquet Bundle and the Mama Elephant die cut frame called Madison Avenue.  I colored the flowers with Copic Markers.



This stamp set has two die sets, I used only the shaker add on for this project.  I will show the third below in case you want it all






I did a little ink blending with Distress Oxide ink in Tumbled Glass and used a Clearview Sheet for the jar.  I filled it with shaker hearts from Honey Bee Stamps.
