Joy Clair and Leisure Arts | More Card Ideas For Her

Hello crafty friends... Hope you all are well! Today I have couple more card ideas for her that you can make and send out to your friends to cheer them up and to lift them up.

October is Cancer Awareness Month. Joy Clair released a new stamp set, Hope. This stamp set is dedicated for those who are fighting the cancer. I love this stamp set. The sentiments are very uplifting and encouraging, especially the Bible Verses. The ribbon and gloves are just perfect!

I stamped the Broken Brick Background Stamp on a light pink cardstock with White Unicorn Pigment Ink Pad and Mini MISTI. After that, I dried the ink with craft heater and trimmed it slightly smaller than the card base. I added it on the hot pink card with E-Z Runner Gran Adhesive.

I stamped the gloves and sentiment on a piece of white cardstock with VersaFine Clair Charming Pink Ink Pad and Mini MISTI. I dried the stamped image and sentiment with craft heater. I fussy cut the gloves with my fine point scissors and I trimmed the sentiment into sentiment label.

I added the gloves on the top left corner card and the sentiment at the bottom right cornet with 3D tape. I tied up some of the natural twine around the top, made a bow and glued it with some permanent glue adhesive.

My second card is created using one of the newest stamp set also called Mermaid At Heart. I paired it up with the Mermaid Tail Background Stamp.

This stamp set describes my two girls who are mermaid at heart. They love water and swimming in any season! I am thankful for them...

I started with creating the watercolored background using Leisure Arts Double Ended Markers and water. I used smooshing technique. I scribbled the markers on a craft mat and sprayed some water that turn the marker color into watercolor paint. I added the watercolor paper in it and smooshed around. I dried it with craft heater and then did it the same step to build up the colors.

After that, I stamped the Mermaid Tail Background on it with VersaFine Clair Warm Breeze ink pad and MISTI. And then, I stamped the sea plant image with VersaFine Clair Green Oasis using second generation stamping technique. I added the background panel on a white card with E-Z Runner Grand. 

Using the same smooshing technique, I created another watercolored background with Leisure Arts Double Ended Markers and water. This time I tried to create sort of mermaid color combo with blue, teal and purple markers. After I dried the watercolored background, I stamped the mermaid tail image with Fantasia VersaFine Clair and then fussy cut it. I stamped the sentiment with Purple Delight VersaFine Clair ink pad and then fussy cut it, too.

I cut out a piece of light blue cardstock with Rectangles Dies to create the frame. I added on the card with permanent adhesive glue. And then I added both mermaid tail and sentiment with 3D foam tape. I embellished the card with some clear dots.

I hope these cards give you more ideas what to make for your friends and family.
