Today I have a hostess card to share with you. Since I didn't put a sentiment on the front I could also end up using it as an invitation to dinner card instead.
All of the patterned papers are from My Mind's Eye from their Lime Twist collection. This is the Happy Go Lucky 6 by 6 pad. I used 5 different patterns from that paper pad on this card.
The adorable image is from a set called Hostess With the Mostess by Amber Ink. I've been looking for a set like this for a long time and was so excited to find it. She has it available as a clear stamp set, which is what I bought, or a digital one. There are several little items that can go on her tray and a sentiment too.
I used some Copics and a couple Stampin' Up markers to color his skin, hair, eyes, and mouth. Everything else is paper pieced using my patterned paper. Lots of hand cutting so it did take awhile.
I added some Ranger Liquid Pearls in Petal Pink to the top of the cake to be the frosting.
I layered her onto a couple Nestabilities dies, and went around the white one with some Crystal Stickles.
Along the bottom of the card I used my EK Success Open Scallop border punch. I placed a small strip of white cardstock behind the scallops because I thought it looked too busy to have the pattern showing through them.
I added a bit of satin ribbon from Stampin' Up.
The top two corners are rounded on a 1/2 inch setting using my Corner Chomper.
Thanks for stopping by today :)
