Hello Friends, hope you had a wonderful week, and Happy FriYAY!
It is time for another Tonic Stamp Club Release Blog Hop and this month it is all about Little Monsters!!! Perfect for Halloween cards or just all-year-round fun cards for birthdays and other occasions.
If you have already joined the hop you should have arrived from my friend Erica's Blog. I will link the complete hop list and giveaway details near the end of this post. I have a bunch of cards to share today so let's get started.
Here is a closer look at this month's Stamp and Die Bundle.
- 6x8" stamp and die set contains 28 stamps and 18 dies.
- Polka dot mini-slimline sized die without cutting edges great for mini-slims, creating larger background panels, and for DIY stencils.
All my cards are pretty simple. I first colored all the Monsters using Copic Markers, then die-cut them with their coordinating dies.
For this first card, I used the Polka Dot Die to create an A2 size panel. I then glued the panel to a rainbow-colored piece of pattern paper and trimmed it to create 2 border pieces for the first two cards.
I then just added this cute little monster colored in green, along with the sentiment that I thought worked well with all his eyes!
This next Monster may be my favorite one. That face is so sweet, I think it would cheer anyone up.
For fun, I added the colorful googly eyes to the polka dot pattern.
For this next card, once again I used the Polka Dot Die. This time I used it to create a stencil for this background. Onto the black cardstock, I used white pigment ink to add the Polka dots in the background. Here again, I used the googly eyes to add some fun and interest to the card. I think this would be a fun card to send a friend around Halloween.
Shake the card and the eyes follow you. So fun! Love how this card turned out.
If you didn't already know, I love rainbows. So here are a few fun rainbow-inspired birthday cards, because I never have enough!
I sound like a broken record, but once again, I used the Polka Dot Die to cut out the background... it's just a fun die! To the top of the card base, I then blended yellow, pink, and blue Atelier inks to create a rainbow blend.
Next, I stamped the party sentiments and added the partygoers to the front, and finished them by adding on their googly eyes. Hard to see from the picture but the blue monster has sparkly fur. I also used glossy accents to add raised details to some of the areas. FYI, I can no longer find the link to the googly eyes I used, so I have linked to a similar source below to Amazon.
And finally, I was left with one little monster that I added to a rainbow pattern background. So simple when you are using pattern paper!
This little monster looks pretty excited about his cake. Who doesn't like birthday cake, right?!
