Just for You – Handmade Card Featuring Conie Fong Art

Today I’m sharing a cheerful handmade card I created using 

the adorable Pepper with Flowers digital stamp from Conie Fong Art & Design. 

This sweet little turtle is carrying a colorful bouquet of flowers, 

making it the perfect image for sending smiles and warm wishes.

I colored the turtle and flowers using Prisamcolor pencils, 

blending rich shades of green, brown, and 

pops of bright floral tones to bring the image to life. 

To frame the design, 

I used a bold postage-edge die cut in deep green cardstock, 

which really makes the artwork stand out. 

A scattering of sparkling sequins adds just the right amount of shine and dimension.

For the sentiment, I chose a large script die cut reading “Just for You”, layered 

in coordinating green to tie the whole card together. 

It’s a simple but striking way to let someone know you’re thinking of them.

This card would be wonderful for birthdays, thank you notes, or 

just sending a little happiness to brighten someone’s day.

Supplies Used:

• Digital stamp: Conie Fong Art & Design

• Prismacolor Pencils

• Lessebo Hunter's Green Card Stock from CutCardStock

• Postage-edge frame die from scrapbook.com

• Sentiment die: Just for You from Crafter's Companion

• Sequins for embellishment from Pajama Crafters Stamps

If you’d like to see more of Conie Fong’s beautiful images, be sure to visit the 

Conie Fong Art Etsy Shop

Thanks for stopping by and I hope this happy little turtle brings you a smile today!

CHALLENGE RECOGNITION

Hello from Little Blossom

 It's kind of quiet here this afternoon and

not nearly as hot as it has been.

A good day to get a little crafting in.

So, I put together an inspiration card created for

Conie Fong Art & Design.

I've used a sweet digital stamp called

Little Blossom.

This digital download comes with 3 images.

One has a floral background.

The 2nd has balloons and the 3rd, which I've used, has no background.

My card design is simple.

A2 sized with a dark pink metallic card base,

gold matting and a white metallic background embossed.

3 strips of dark pink and a gold cards stock cut a placed

behind a fussy cut and popped Blossom.

I colored her up with Prismacolor pencils.

The sentiment was die cut.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.

I hope the rest of your weekend is great!

Christmas Leilani

Hello there!

We're nearing the end of July so,

I wanted to share a Christmas in July project.

This one is a card created for 

Conie Fong Art & Design.

Using Christmas Leilani 

I love Conie Fong digis and this one is a favorite!

She is colored with Prismacolor Pencils, no surprise there.

My card background is from a folded paper pad from Crafter's Companion.

It was white, but I inked over it with a combo of red and dark orange ink.

I wanted to bring out the colors I used for the poinsettias.

The top of the card is a border die cut.

The sentiment was die cut.

I fussy cut Leilani and popped her onto layered and die cut circles.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

Purrfect Kitties Christmas

Hello!

I hope everyone's had a nice weekend.

Mine was good. A little lazy.

But, hey, we all need that every once in a while, right?

Anyway, I wanted to share my latest inspiration card for

Conie Fong Art & Design.

It's Christmas in July, so of course, I made a Christmas card.

using Purrfect Kitties

These kitties are so cute I just had to color them up!

I went with black, white and grays for their fur and

blue, red and a little green for their outfits.

All done with Prismacolor pencils.

My card background is blue with an acetate overlay of snowflakes.

The panel the image is printed in was trimmed down and

matted with red card stock. I punched white borders.

The sentiment is die cut.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

 

You & Me

Hello there!

Today I'm posting on behalf of

Conie Fong Art & Design.

 My inspiration card was created with

First Kiss.

This digi is so adorable.

I just love it!

I printed on white card stock and colored with Prismacolor pencils.

My background was created with an embossing folder

from Crafter's Companion. I used white card stock and

added color with glitter gel pens for the flowers and inked the rest.

An arched opening was cut with a Spellbinders die.

I cut to take out mushrooms and a fairy that were part of the folder.

Just goes to show, you can alter almost anything to fit your design!

The sentiment was die cut with a die set from Scrapbook.com.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look at today's card!

I love putting it together!

With Love from Susie Sunshine

Hello there!

Popping in today to share some inspiration for

Conie Fong Art & Design!

 My card was created with

Susie Sunshine.

I colored this sweet digi with Prismacolor Pencils.

Before popping onto my card base I fussy cut.

I had the bulk of my card base in my stash from

a previous project I was working on and scrapped!

Die cutting was done on lavender metallic card stock and

a flap was created.

To complete this base, I added white card stock behind the flap and

added a border from a pattern paper in my stash.

I had a piece of ribbon that was just long enough to add with a bow.

The sentiment was die cut and I added some sequins to complete.

Thanks so much for taking a look at this project!

I hope you have a great day!

You Make my Heart Bloom

 Happy Friday!

I love to color! How about you?

And some of my favorite images are from

Conie Fong Art & Design.

I had printed and colored this one, Leilani,

a little while back and lost track of it until a few days ago.

Came across it while looking for something else. 

Please tell me I'm not the only one that does this?

So, I thought I would put her on a card, which is super simple.

I had printed the image a little larger than I normally would.

Colored with Prismacolor Pencils.

No fussy cutting done, which is out of the ordinary for me!

A sentiment was stamped. I added some sequins and double matted.

Not a lot needed as the image is so pretty!

Thanks for taking a look.

I hope you have a great weekend!

Baby Seal Valentine

Hello there!

Hope your Saturday is going well!

It's cold and snowy here in Colorado today.

So, a good day for crafting!

I put together this card using 

Baby Seals on Iceberg

Conie Fong Art 

These cuties were colored with Prismacolor Pencils.

I fussy cut the image.

My card measures 5 x 6 1/2 inches and was

created with a piece of medium blue card stock.

I die cut some clouds out of the same blue as the card base and white for

the top of the card.

A darker blue card stock covers the rest of the card.

I smudged a little white ink over the blue.

Added foam tape to the back of my image and adhered.

Decided to die cut some double hearts and "Valentine" out of white card.

3 pear;s were added for just a little extra!

Not your regular red or pink Valentine card, but I like the way it came out!

Hope you do too!

Molly's Joy

Hi there!

I started coloring up this little cutie a few days ago and

didn't get around to finishing her until last night. 

This morning I got to thinking and remembered I had a snow globe die.

I thought she would look super cute on a snow globe shaped card.

I stamped some trees on the background, 

did a little inking, added some snow banks and

splattered a little white paint for a snow effect.

I love the way this little card came out.

This is Molly's Joy from

Conie Fong Art & Design.

The digi was colored with Prismacolor Pencils and fussy cut.

Glitter glue was added to the "JOY" banner Molly is holding.

I die cut the "Merry Christmas" sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look!

I so appreciate you all!
