Riding by to say Hi with Tricycle Marci

Here is my latest creation using inspiration from Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #171 for the colours: blue and yellow, Cupcake Craft Challenge #203 and Paper Makeup Stamps Challenge #47 for the theme: The Great Outdoors and Endless Summer, respectively.
So here is my card:

Here is the inspirational photo from Cupcake Inspirations:

I have used a square white card and envelope from Envelope Solutions.
I have digitally stamped Tricycle Marci, the sentiment "Riding by to say Hi" and the fence from La-La Land Crafts and the sun from Jen's Sunshine, part of a set of digital stamps for charity from Paper Makeup Stamps.

I have printed on X-press It paper and coloured everything with Copics pens.
The Copic pens I used are:

  • Tricycle Marci 
    • skin: E50, E51 and lipstick Spica pen
    • hair - E31, E35, E37
    • shorts/headband - B02, B05
    • top/hair bow - Y11, Y15, Y17
    • bike - BG000, BG10, BG15, C1, C3, C5
    • basket - E31, E35
    • panda - C1, C3, C5, R20, lipstick Spica pen
  • Fence
    • wood - E31, E35, E37
    • stones - W1, W3, W5, E35
    • grass - YG63, YG67
  • Sun
    • Y11, Y15, Y17
    • cheeks - R02
    • tongue - E02
Everything was coloured on the edge with B00.

I also made an addition to this card, as I thought it was lacking something in the middle!


I digitally stamped the sunflowers from La-La Land Crafts, then coloured them with the following Copic pens:
  • stems/leaves - YG03, YG63
  • flowers - Y02, YR07, Y28, E37
I think next time, I'll add the sunflowers and fence together before I print! Too much fussy cutting!! :)

This card is for sale on Etsy in my shop: JemLou Productions. Here is the listing: Riding By to Say Hi! Card.
This card will also be displayed in a few places:  La-La Land Customer Gallery and the La-La Land Crafts Facebook page.

Reindeer Card - Cupcake 64

Here is my card for this week's Cupcake Craft Challenge:


Cute isn't it!!??
The challenge is buttons and bows.

I hand drew the reindeer face, eyes and nose with glittery Spica pens, then adhered the antlers (also hand drawn). I made the ribbon into a bow, then attached the button to the bow with embroidery floss. The bow is attached to the card with a pop dot.

I have used:

  • a kraft card and envelope
  • some Spica pens: lipstick and pitch black
  • some card stock drawn in the shape of antlers and inked on the edges with black ink
  • ribbon
  • button
  • embroidery floss
  • puffy merry christmas sticker
 Attached to the back of the envelope is a merry christmas ribbon.

The kraft card and envelope are from fundamentals, the card stock from die cuts with a view, the ink from Vivid, the ribbon from American Crafts, the white button and merry christmas sticker from JoAnn Craft Essentials and the embroidery floss is from an old cross stitch project!

This card is for sale in my Etsy shop: JemLou Productions. Here is the link to the listing.
