Hi everyone.  🙂   Welcome to the My Favorite Things June New Product Tour! Tonight I am sharing four samples using new Pure Innocence Gone Fishin’.

First, I used the cute PI girl with Nightshift Blue card stock.  She was stamped onto X-Press It Blending Card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  I used Circle STAX 1 and 2 to die-cut/mat the image, added a scalloped strip from Blueprints 4 and a little heart on the hook, cut from Orange Fizz cardstock using Notched Tag Die-namics.  The heart is raised on a piece of foam tape.  The sentiment is white embossed with the three dots added using an opaque white pen.

On the inside I completed the sentiment from the front and added a second scalloped strip.

For my second card, I combined PI Gone Fishin with new Sunray Die-namics. After stamping and coloring the girl onto X-Press It Blending Card, I cut around the girl and the dock, leaving the water portion square at the bottom.  The sunrays were die-cut from Sweet Tooth card stock and adhered to a Sweet Tooth panel.  The circle is raised on foam tape.   “Miss you” is from Airplane Greetings and base card stock is Bubblegum.

On the inside, I stamped a silhouette in new Bubblegum ink and added a second sentiment from Airplane Greetings.

Next, I used PI Gone Fishin while taking advantage of patterns from Echo Park’s “A Perfect Summer” collection.  After stamping and coloring the girl, I cut her out, cut a slit in the water patterned paper and inserted the dock leg.  The fish is raised on foam tape and the sentiment flags were cut using Fishtail Flag Layers.

Inside, I stamped the girl, extended the fishing and water lines and adhered a scrap strip of patterned paper.

Lastly, I created a child’s (Dr. Seuss-ish) birthday card.  I repeatedly stamped the fish on an angle, alternating directions with each row.  I colored with bright Copics, added a thin strip of Red Hot card stock and a Red Hot button.  The sentiment here is also from Airplane Greetings.

On the inside, I stamped a few more rows of fish and added a second thin strip of Red Hot card stock to separate the pattern from the message area.

Hi everyone!  I’m back today with another preview of My Favorite Things‘ June release.  Today I used Laina Lamb’s Max Alphabet and Insert It-Speech Bubble Frame.

I die-cut two Speech Bubble Frames, one from Sweet Tooth card stock, one from Black Licorice.  Using Black Licorice ink, I stamped the sentiment.  The comma and period were created by stamping the “dot” from the exclamation point, using a Copic Multi-liner to add the little hook to the comma.  The small girl was created using Paper Doll Girl Border Die-namics and the clear rhinestones were colored black using a Copic marker.  The Razzle Berry panel is raised on foam tape for added dimension.

On the inside, I used the remaining frame from the Black Licorice die-cut Speech Bubble, stamping the sentiment from Bold Statements in Black Licorice and Razzle Berry inks.  The Bold Statements set is this month’s Triple Scoop,  free to you with a qualifying purchase of $60 or more (before tax and shipping).
