Life's A Amusement Park

Nancy Hill for Frantic Stamper Design Team and excited to share with you another gorgeous June 2017 dies and stamps from the theme, fun times at the carnival, circus, and amusement parks. Isn't this amusement park die from the Frantic Stamper Amusement Park Skyline and Frantic Stamper Ticket die set just gorgeous. 

I love the coordinating stamps set this month called the Frantic Stamper Life is a Carnival and Frantic Stamper 6"x 6" background stamp called Stars and Stripes.  The card measures 6" x 6".  I inked the background stamps with Ranger Red Distress ink using My Sweet Petunia Misti stamp tool which really helped with my stamping all the time.  I cut out the amusement park and ticket die set with black card stock and adhered it to the card.  I  printed off the announcement and made the banner using a circle punch for the ends of the banner.

A Happy Birthday To You

The Rubber Buggy on-line store carries top name brand supplies for all of your crafting needs.  They have wonderful customer service and fast delivery.  Welcome to my weekly blog for The Rubber Buggy.  I love making cards with coordinating dies, stamps and papers such as the Heartfelt Creations collections.  This time, I mixed it up and have Heartfelt Creations and Memory Box dies, stamps and papers.

Supplies:  

Heartfelt Creations Cascading Fuchsia Die Set

Heartfelt Creations Cascading Fuchsia Stamp Set

Heartfelt Creations Fleur Border and Pocket Die Set

Heartfelt Creations Blushing Rose Paper Collect

Venise Lace

Scor Tape 1/4"

Heartfelt Creations Arianna Birthday Stamp Set

Green, Lavender and White Card Stock

NUVO Embellishment Peony Pink Mousse

Copic Markers

Ranger Deep Purple Ink 

Ranger Gold Tinsel Embossing Powder

Oval Pearl and Small Green Beads

Scrapbook Adhesive 3D Foam Tape

Memory Box Peaceful Butterfly Wings

Instructions:
My card measures 6" x 8".  The background paper is from the Heartfelt Creations Blushing Rose.  I plan to create a slide show on how I made the Heartfelt Creations Cascading Fuchsia flowers but right now, I found that using a hot glue gun works best with gluing the stamens inside the flower as well as gluing the oval pearl bead and round bead on top of the flower.  I cut part of the back of the flower and glued the flowers with the hot glue gun on top of the Heartfelt Creations Fleur Border.  I added NUVO Crystal Lavender Gloss dots to the ends of the stamen.  After stamping and die cutting the petals of the flowers, I used my fingers to dab NUVO Embellishment Mousse Pink and some Lavender on the petals to bring out a shimmer glow.  The petals were stamped with purple ink on pink card stock.  The top of the flower as well as the stamen were cut with white card stock.  I cut out the Memory Box Peaceful Butterfly Wings and added three butterflies to the card.  I used the NUVO Embellishment Mousse Pink and Lavender on the butterflies to make them glow.  I embossed the Heartfelt Creations Arianne Birthday stamp with gold embossing powder and colored some of the parts with Copic Markers.  I adhere the mini pearls to the center of the flower.  I lightly sprayed some adhesive to parts of the cards and drops more mini pearls to the card.  I adhered the Venise Lace with the 1/4" wide Scor-Tape.

I shaped each flower with my fingers.   I applied with my fingers the NUVO Embellishment Aquamarine Mousse for the center of the flowers.  I applied with my fingers the NUVO Embellishment Mother of Pearl Mousse on the petals of the flowers.  I used a hot glue gun to glue the flowers on the card.  I adhere the seam binding ribbons on the card with the Scor-Tape.
