Sentimental Prints ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

I have a fun card to share with you today that was inspired by sketch #325 over at Try Stampin or Not on Tuesday.  Some of my favorite cards have come out of designs from this blog challenge. :)  This week the sketch is pretty clean and simple and I managed to keep it that way too!  

This is the sketch for this week.  Make sure you check out all the other great cards made by the design team this week HERE.  We'd love to see what you create with it too. :)

Turtley Awesome ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

How fun is today's card!  I think most of you know my favorite color to use on a card is blue, but did you actually know my favorite color is green?  And today I got to combine them to create this fun card for my nephew's birthday...and it's Turtley Awesome! lol  Just a little fun pun for you. :)  I can't believe I haven't played with this set yet!  Guess I didn't have a reason to until now.

This card was pretty easy to create.  I did do just a bit of fussy cutting, but dies are available for this set if you hate fussy cutting!! :) To create my background I did a watercolor wash using Journey Splashes (Lemon Grass and Turbo Teal).  I also used the same Journey Splashes to color in my turtle and seaweed after I embossed them in white (just a note that I did all of this on watercolor paper).

Easter Blessings ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

Yes, today's post is titled Easter Blessing because that's the name of the stamp set that I used.  However I ended up using it as an anniversary card.  I'm really looking forward to an anniversary stamp (hopefully stamps) in the new catalog coming out in July, but for now the Well Wishes from May's Bloom Box is what I'm going to use. :) 

So back to today's card...I created it for my sister and brother-in-law's anniversary.  Yup, it's girly because of the flowers.  Maybe next year I'll make one that's a bit more masculine (if I remember! lol).  Anywhoo I wanted to try my hand at a bit more watercolor.  Turned out kind of funky.  Some people like this look and others don't.  It wasn't exactly what I was looking for, but I'm still learning so it'll do for me. :)

FSJ Color Splash Sheets are awesome too, but not smooth.  
I use watercolor paper according to what I'm working on).

Begin Adventure ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

Today I have another masculine card to share with you.  This was also one of my May stamp a stack cards.  

It was as simple as sponging the sun on using couple different yellows (I die-cut out a circle and masked the card stock so only the circle was open to sponge the sun), sponged some more around the sun with more yellow, stamped the airplane and birthday greeting, assembled the card and put on the twill rope (which is a freebie with a $50 purchase!).

Stay Wild ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

Last Tuesday I said I was going to post another card from TSOT's challenge that I changed up just a bit.  This time I didn't use any aluminum foil, added sponging so I could have the moon and I also added a bit of twine across the diagonal strip.  This was one of my May stamp a stack cards and the ladies really seemed to like it...and it's actually VERY easy to create! :)

Dahlia Burst ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

Today's card is special because I made it for my mom for her birthday. :)  I know I've made a lot of blue cards lately, but it just seems to be the color that works for me...and it's my mom's favorite color. :)

I stamped the image with clear pigment ink on watercolor paper and embossed it with white embossing power.  Then I used Journey Splashes mixed with water to watercolor in the flowers and leaves.  I did a bit of light blue around the whole image too and did some blue and green splats.
