LOTS O' LUCK - Stamped Cards | with Barbara

Hello, I’m back today with three cards using the awesome new Lots o’ Luck polymer stamps from Design!

First up, I created a bridge—or U-Fold—card. I started with Swimming Pool textured card stock for the base, then added panels of coordinating paper from the 6 x 6 Dot-Stripe Rainbow Petite Prints paper pad. I cut the clouds with my Cameo with cut files from the Silhouette Store for the “bridge” and adhered them with tape runner and foam tape after stamping the sentiment on the smaller cloud. Then I stamped the images on Doodlebug Design Smooth White card stock with Copic-friendly ink, cut them out, colored them with Copic markers and adhered them to the card with foam tape. When this card is folded down it will fit in a standard A2 envelope.

I played off the sentiment for my next card design. I knew I was going to use some glitter so I kept the design clean and simple. I started by adhering a strip of Irish Lad Double Sided paper from the 6 x 6 Lots o’ Luck paper pad to a white card stock base. Then I trimmed down another piece of white card stock and adhered it to the card base with foam tape. Next I stamped the rainbow and clouds images from the Lots o’ Luck Stamp Set with Copic-friendly ink and colored in each strip with a mid-range Copic marker for each color. Next I added a thin layer of liquid glue to one strip at a time and covered it with the corresponding color from the Sugar Coating Glitter Assortment, allowing each color to dry thoroughly before adding the next. The heart on the cloud was covered with a Rainbow Hearts Shape Sprinkles and all three images were adhered with foam tape. The sentiment was heat embossed on black card stock and also adhered with foam tape.

For my final card I created some “patterned paper” using several good luck images along with the “Good Luck” sentiment. I began by covering a white card stock base with Pot o’ Gold Double-Sided patterned paper from the 6 x 6 Lots o’ Luck Paper Pad. Then, on more white card stock, I stamped the images and sentiment randomly with Copic-friendly ink. After I colored the images, I tied around some Beetle Black Doodle Twine, adhered the panel to the card base with foam tape, and finished off with some Gold Sprinkles.

And that’s it from me today! Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope I’ve given you some ideas and inspiration for using YOUR new Doodlebug Design Lots o’ Luck Stamp Set.
