Joy Clair Little Monsters and Fly With Me

Hello Blogging Friends,


Today it is my turn on the Joy Clair Blog and I want to share the two cards I made here too.  I made my first card using the Joy Clair Little Monsters stamp set.




For this A2 card I started with white card stock for the base of the card.  I then took the orange and black paper, inked the edges with black ink and then attached that to the base of the card.  I took the monsters from the Joy Clair Little Monsters stamp set and stamped them with Memento Black ink onto some watercolor paper.  I colored in the monsters with Copic markers and then cut them apart and inked the edges with green ink and arranged them onto the card.  I took the sentiment form the same stamp set and stamped that onto some white paper, inked the edges with green ink and then attached that to some black paper and then placed that onto the card.  I then took the sentiment from the Joy Clair Spooky Greetings stamp set:  




 I took Memento black ink and stamped the Hocus Pocus sentiment onto white paper, inked the edges with green ink and then attached it to some black paper and then added it to the card.  I then took some green paper and an old die from My Craft Spot Fancy Edges Halloween (no longer available) and cut out the slime and placed that on the top of the card.

Here is a closer look at my card:




For my next card I used the Joy Clair Fly With Me stamp set.




For this A2 size card I started with white card stock for the base of the card.  I took some blue marble paper, inked the edges with Tumbled Glass distress ink and then added that to the base of the card.  I took some watercolor paper, black Memento ink and the balloon stamps from the Joy Clair Fly With Me stamp set and stamped the balloons onto the paper.  I colored in the balloons with Copic markers and then fussy cut each one out and added them to the card.  I then took the sentiments from that stamp set and stamped them and the birds onto the card.  Hot air balloons always make me happy!  They are so bright and colorful and they just looks so pretty!  I love seeing them floating across the sky!


Here is a closer look at my card:



I hope I have inspired you to make something fun today!  


Thanks for stopping by!

  5. Adorable little monsters, Lori, and I love the hot air balloons! I may have to get that set to add to my collection. Aren't you ashamed being such an "enabler"?
