Enjoy the Ride

 Art Impression's is celebrating their "Rides" new release with a challenge called "Planes, Trains and automobiles".  Actually, the challenge is anything that you ride on.  There are so many Art Impression's stamp sets to choose from for this challenge but I just LOVE the gal on the skateboard in their "Got Style" stamp set.  This is my kind of gal - on a mission with shopping bags in hand (headed to the next store) ๐Ÿ˜€.


I stamped the image on cryogen white paper and colored her with copic markers.  I fussy cut her out and placed her on a stitched circle die cut.  The framed circle was also cut out with the stitched circle dies.  The sentiment came from the "Got Style" set as well.

Hope you have a great day and Enjoy the Ride!

Halloween Slimline

 This week's Art Impression's challenge is a "Slimline" card.  This was another fun challenge since I have never made a slimline card.  It has been in my projects list to attempt but just haven't gotten around to it so this challenge made me do it.  I'm so use to making A2 or 6x6 cards so to create a 9x4 was unusual but I really enjoyed it.  

  I thought I would make a Halloween slimline card since we are nearing that holiday next and who doesn't like Halloween.  I utilized several Art Impression's stamp and die sets.  The main one being the Haunted Mansion Popcard.  Unfortunately, this one has been discontinued but it's very similar to the Holiday mansion that is still in their store.  This Haunted Mansion set was intended to be an inside Popup card but I just took each piece and used foam tape to create the dimension.  I also utilized the Art Impression's fence dies, Quivery Mini Shaker spider and bat dies, and The Old Bat set saying and cluster of bats in the top corner.  I colored the images with copic markers and used Distress Oxide inks to create the background.  The pumpkins, witch, ghosts, and mansion dies are part of the Haunted Mansion Popcard set.  

  Hope you have a wonderful and fun Halloween.
