Lighthouse Journal cards from Art Impressions

 Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing two cards made with the template from the new 5543 – Journal Template Die Set



I cut the window panes out of the rectangular window and glued them on the back of the ornate frame.
I used 5466 – Lighthouse Set5465 – Cliffs Set and 5473 – Seagull Set for the images on the front of my cards. I also used two dies from 5325 – Sail Mini Dies.



I liked that when I folded the card you could see part of the inside.  It gives you a sneak peek about what's inside.  I used one of the border dies on the inside edge.



The sentiment, flying gulls and little anchor are from 5399 – Gull-Friends Set and the rest of the images are from the Seagull set.


The sailboat is from 5184 – Baby Boy Set.



For this card I went bolder with the colors on my lighthouse.




I often work at my kitchen table when I'm coloring and I love these Grid-Lined Placemats – 10 Sheets to protect my work area.  I'd be so upset if I got marker or glue on my table. There are 3 different designs to choose from.  I chose the design that matches my Ai Queen of Craft Mug – 15oz.

Seas the Day from Art Impressions

 Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing a summer themed card with you that I made using the 5455 – Birthday Buggy Set and the 5509 – Beach Accessories.

The Ai Rides series is so much fun because you can mix and match all of the sets to create just the theme you want.  


My card was made with the Art Impressions Summer Fun challenge in mind.


I also used 5399 – Gull-Friends Set for the verse, shell, starfish and of course the adorable seagull. 
I mean, what beach scene is complete without a seagull?


My mom's first car was a powder blue 65 VW Bug so I modeled my car after hers.

Pelicans! from Art Impressions

Hello Ai fans!

Which bird can make me smile?  A Peli-can!
Sorry,  I had too!

Today I have two cards for you made with the 
5399 – Gull-Friends Set


This set is just so much fun!! 
It's from the Funny Farm series.


My second card is a swing card. 


You see the sentiment when it's closed from the front.


Then when you pull it open you can see the adorable pelican.


I used the Sail Mini Dies and some of the little 
stamp accessories from the set to accent it.


I'm going to say something that you probably won't believe...this is NOT my favorite Funny Farm set even though I can't stop making cards with it!  If it's possible I love the Doggy Kisses, Possums and Frogs even more.

Ahoy there Birthday Gull!

Hello Ai fans!

My very sweet niece just turned 21 and I needed a card.  She's not your traditional 21 year old.  When asked what she wanted for her birthday?  Dinner and a night at a local casino with me, her mom, grandma and her other aunt!
 

The Funny Farm series at Art Impressions is one of my favorites!!
For her card I used the new 5399 – Gull-Friends Set.


I used several of the "stitched die" sets from Art Impressions.

I also used the gull from the 5325 – Sail Mini Dies.


On the inside I used one more stitched die...


For those of you who are curious... my niece came out about $60 ahead!
We'll consider that a big, birthday win!!
