Burnin' Rubber by Pickled Potpourri

Do you have a friend who is a race car fan?  This is the perfect digital stamp set to make a card for him.  Burnin' Rubber by Pickle Potpourri makes a fun birthday card for a racer.

My card, in red, white, and black, uses a red background with some black and white checked patterned paper to accent the race flags.  I've colored the image with red Copic markers and used several shaped dies for the images.  You can find this stamp set here.

Day at the Beach by Pickled Potpourri

It is summer and time for vacation and relaxing on the beach.  This is the perfect combination of digital images to create a scene of your choice.  The digital stamp sets are Beachy Keen and Day at the Beach by Pickled Potpourri.  I colored the images with Copic markers and used some sand-looking background patterned paper, red matting for the images and cut die letters with red cardstock.  You can find these images here and here

Hunting and Camping

Today I am featuring three digital stamp sets from Pickled Potpourri. 

This first card uses all three sets, Hunting, Hunting Fowl, and Campfire. (See stamp sets below).   I've made a flit-it card and sized the images small to fit on the squares.  I colored them with chalks this time.  The paper is from my stash and I've added buttons with scrappers floss in them. The card is die cut with a Sizzix Framelit flip-it die by Stephanie Bennard.

The second card  uses Hunting and Hunting Fowl.  I embossed the background blue cardstock and cut out the images with a die before chalking them.  The ribbon and buttons accent the card. Both of these cards make nice guy cards for birthday or other occasions.

Red Rubber Inspirational #128 - Anything Goes

It is time for another Inspirational Challenge from Red Rubber Inspirationals, led by Lynda.  This week it is "Anything Goes".  A new stamp set, Take Pride, from  Red Rubber Designs is available in pre-cut foam mounted rubber.  For my graduation card I've used Winchester cardstock and patterned paper by Red Rubber Designs, along with the large eyelet on the tag.  The image is stamped on cream cardstock and colored with Copic markers.  The sentiment is from Trendy Greetings.  I added 3 silver brads and a blue chiffon ribbon.  I stamped the border of elephants with Palette Burnt Umber and the other images with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  

Here's a close up photo.
