Creative Vision Stamps Week & Giveaway Day #4: Stick With It

I can't believe that it's already Day #4 of

Creative Vision Stamps Week and Giveaway, here at my blog!

(GIVEAWAY info is posted at the end of this blog post)

I've had the best time creating (and sharing) this week's cards!

Today I've got a few cards to share with you...

created with one last new release stamp set.

"STICK WITH IT" is a fun...and cute stamp set 

that includes and assortment of great images and sentiments.
For today's cards, I've chosen two of the images...

and two of the sentiments

to create two cards!

I colored both images with Copic Markers...

Created backgrounds with inking and stenciling...

Die cut the image pieces

Created inked, hand cut sentiment banners
Chose background prints that have a water color look...

 I positioned the image pieces with fun foam to add dimension to the card.

and...

 this is what I came up with...

This first guy was fun to color and create a card with...

I kept the colors soft and earthy

and used Clarity Stencil Brushes to create the blended ink backgrounds

of the sentiment piece..and the image piece.

I used the rectangle die as a stencil to create a clean edged background

around the image. 

This card was crated with the largest image in this wonderful stamp set.
I added a stenciled cloud background to the image piece and the banner piece.
The image piece was also inked with Clarity Stencil Brushes.
The Deckled Edge die did double time....

firstly to cut the image piece...

and then it was used as a stencil while inking the sky and grassy areas.
Like the prior card...

The image piece was positioned with fun foam.

This stamp set...

like each of the Creative Vision Stamps July New Release stamp sets...

was lots of fun to create cards with.

All of the July release stamp sets offer the opportunity to color...
and create varied backgrounds...

as well as lots of mix and match image/sentiment options.
These new release stamp sets have carried me through the seasons.....

PET MONSTERS for Halloween cards....
and BEARY MERRY and ELF THIS for Christmas cards...

They've also given me the opportunity to create some multi-purpose

note card style cards with the STICK WITH IT stamp set.
All of this leads me to say that this is a versatile new release!

and now...
