The first project I have to share with you I am SO excited about!!! It uses TWO super cute and brand new sets called All Aboard and Loads of Fun. All Aboard features 20 images and sentiments and the coordinating Loads of Fun features 15 images and sentiments both are made of the highest quality red rubber and EZ Mount Cling Foam and are predie cut and ready to use!. Both sets are illustrated by Doug Applegate for the Apple Doodle Ink line and are concepted by ME!!! I love love love these sets. The idea behind this set came from my 5 year old son. He is a train FANATIC and I really wanted a cute versatile train set that I could use for lots of different occasions. This super cute train can be filled with the ‘fillables’ from the Loads of Fun set or used on it’s own. These sets can be used together or apart and also coordinate with the new super cute Train Track Border die.
For my card I stamped the locomotive, freight car and caboose from All Aboard, masked off the freight car with a post it and stamped the boy toys fillable from Loads of Fun on top. I colored the train with Copic Markers and cut them out. I made a background for this scene using the brand new Train Track Border cut from kraft cardstock and gry cardstock. Behind that I layered a bit of green cardstock die cut with the grass border die and used Copics to fill in between the tracks to make it look like gravel. The sky is sponged with Faded Jeans Distress Ink. The smoke from the train is die cut using the Cloud Duo dies. Behind this cute little scene I used Simple Stories Awesome 6×6 paper. The sentiments are both from the All Aboard set. Whew! There’s loads of stuff on here but I LOVE how it all came out!
For my second project I used the ADORABLE Far Out stamp set illustrated by Emily Burger for the Embracing Grace stamp line. I used this months Project Pantry papers and ribbon along with this week’s TESC157 for the layout. Far Out includes 21 images and sentiments made of the highest quality red rubber and EZ Mount Cling Foam and is predie cut and ready to use!
So here’s the low down! I stamped the sweet little robot on Snow White Choice cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored the image with Copics and die cut it using a Spellbinders circle die. I sponged the edges of all the papers with Ranger Vintage Photo Distress Ink.
