Happy Cinco Card by Melinda

Hello crafty friends!

Melinda here with you today. I am excited to share the crafty cards I recently created featuring the Spicy Like That Digital set! It is filled with the perfect blend of spicy and fun images and sentiments to send “Fiesta-ive” greetings all year long!

This first card features the Spicy Jalapeno couple ready for the fiesta! The sentiment is perfect for many types of occasions! I created it horizontally. I used several digital images and papers that I created. I then printed out the finished layout. I added some sequins, white stitching with my gel pen, some stickles and twine an then mounted onto a mat and then card base. I did also color in the red pepper’s nose and add some shine marks on both peppers. But that’s it! quick and easy!

This next card features the sweet little kitty cat dressed for the fiesta! He is ready to play a tune with his trusty maracas! I layered him onto several digital elements and then printed the finished mat out. I added a couple of sequins, a button and some twine and then I mounted all that onto my card base. Another quick and easy card!

My third card features the adorable miss Margarrrrritaaahh… okay,I couldn’t resist. You know even if you can’t RRRROOOOOLLLL your rrrr’sss you know you want too!!! ROFL! She is just too cute. I again layered her onto some digital elements. I printed her out and then added some Nuvo drops to the “liquid lines”, some stickles around her rim to sparkle her up along with some rosy cheeks and the shine dots. Then, I added some sequins an some more nuvo drops on the sentiment label. I added that to my cream cardstock mat and then all that onto my card base and called it done. Super easy.

For my last card, I put the plain floral image onto some digital papers and elements and then added a banner with my sentiment. I printed all that out. I then used my Copic markers and my colored pencils to color in the flowers. Additionally, I added a touch of stickles along with some scattered sequins and some more Nuevo drops on each side of my sentiment banner. I put that onto my lavender mat and then added all that to my blue cardstock base.
