Life's A Beach

Hello everyone! It's Amber here, today I'm sharing this fun Life's A Beach card featuring Pretty Cute Stamps Life's A Beach, Beach Bum's, Wave Borders, and Beach Babes. You can check out the four sets I used below.

I opened all the images I wanted to use in Photoshop and created this fun little beach scene. I started with the sandy hill and then added one of the wave borders behind it. Once I had my sandy area and water in place I added one of the Beach Babes, one of the Beach Bum's, and the "Life's A Beach" sentiment. 

I printed the scene I created onto some white cardstock, die cut it with a double pierced rectangle die to add a pierced edge, colored in all my images, and adhered the entire panel to a textured white card base. I hope you enjoyed my card today! Thanks for visiting!

Supplies: Cardstock- White / Pretty Cute Stamps Digital Stamp Sets- Wave Borders, Life's A Beach, Beach Bum's, Beach Babes / Spectrum Noir Markers / Letraset Flex Markers / Avery Elle Die- Double Pierced Rectangles

Gamer Birthday Card

Hi everyone, Tasha here with a fun gamer birthday card using the awesome Game On stamp set.

I used the cool game controller and star stamps to create a fun pattern paper and used a stitched rectangle die to give extra detail. I kept the colors simple and used a green distressed ink around the edges to blend in the with green stars.

The sentiment I selected was "Hope your day is Epic!" and I just love the way it pops off the card!
I also added the stars and distressed ink to the center card to tie everything together.

I hope you enjoyed my project for today and make sure to subscribe to the Pretty Cute Stamps mailing list to stay up-to-date on all the fun projects and events!

Have a wonderful day,
-Tasha

You Are My Lifesaver

I will be back to smiling food puns in no time, I just needed to share this with you. I look through the stamps all the time wondering how I can incorporate them into whatever I'm doing. I have been "bible-ing" a lot...we have some sticks in the spokes right now and I am working so hard to maintain positivity through it all. I know everything will work out, it just seems like a mountain in front of me right now. I was trying hard to create something that wasn't a bible journaling entry, but I kept fighting what was in my heart, so I needed to get it out and put it down.

Pretty Cute Stamps, are in fact just that. They are cute, but they're pretty perfect for a lot of different projects. I used Lifesaver Digital Stamps and Waves Border Digital Stamps in this particular entry:

 

Thank you for letting me share my heart with you. It's hard sometimes to be vulnerable and put your inner self out there for all to see. Have a wonderful Wednesday and check back tomorrow for some other amazing inspiration. ❤

Birthday Splash!

Hey there friends!! Karla here today. I hope you enjoyed a wonderful weekend. We had sunshine and rain- but we managed to get out a bit, and even slept in the tent in our backyard Saturday night. The kids loved it, but I don't know if I'd say tenting is my favourite thing, lol.

Today I'm sharing this adorable Mermaid Kisses Digital Stamp set from the Pretty Cute Stamps store that I used to create this card. I opened the mermaid digital stamp in PicMonkey, a free online photo editing program and layered on the present and sentiment before colouring in the background with alcohol based markers.  You could also print out your images and layer them as you wish. Check out the TUTORIAL I created here to show you how easy this is!

I added Stickles and sequins and then edged my oval with Versamark and silver embossing powder to add lots of shiny sparkly fun!

Inside, I used the sentiment from the Merman Digital Stamp set. 

Here's a look at the digital stamp sets I used:
