Hello, crafty friends. If you’re like me, you never have enough birthday cards on hand. I decided to make a bunch using THIS new release and share them all week long. Let’s kick off this party with two cards that feature a sentiment background… I like using multiple sentiments to create a text background. I laid out lots of birthday sentiments from THIS and THIS stamp set on a panel inside my MISTI. I...
Hi, crafty friends. Today’s project is part of a blog hop celebrating THIS new release from Simon Says Stamp… For both cards, I stamped the adorable dog images from THIS stamp set on to pieces of THIS card stock. I chose that particular paper because I colored in the images with THESE markers and the color goes down great on that paper. I masked off the images and added a scene with Distress Oxide...
Hello, crafty friends. Today’s card features and easy to create shaker card element… I started by die-cutting THIS circle die from THIS card stock. I die-cut THIS frog circle die from the center of the circle, creating a circle window. I adhered acetate to the back of the opening and adhered the eye die-cuts into place. I stamped a sentiment from THIS stamp set along the bottom of the circle by curving the sentiment before...
Hello, crafty friends. I’m sharing a couple cards today featuring products from THIS new release. For both cards, I dry embossed THESE dies to create a background. I stamped, colored, and cut out THESE images. I stamped a sentiment from the stamp stamp set in the center and added some of THESE and THESE drops along with some hearts from THIS die. I added some of THIS on top of the hearts from some shine...
Hi there, crafty friends. Today’s card features products from THIS new card kit… I stamped an image from the kit’s stamp set and colored it in with Copic markers. I stamped a coordinating sentiment inside the frame and added thin green strips to the bottom and top of the panel. I adhered it on top of a piece of patterned paper. I finished the card by adding liquid glue along some of the leaves...
Hi, crafty friends. Today’s card stretches the use of THIS alphabet die set… I really like alphabet sets because you can customize your sentiments or even use them on kid’s school projects. Instead of cutting apart the individual letters, I decided to keep the majority of them in tact and create a simple background. I ran the whole piece through my die-cut machine after inking up the panel with some Distress Oxide ink blending....
Hi, crafty friends. I love getting more use out of my supplies and today’s card is a great example of that… I used THIS die in a completely different way than intended. I cut it twice from pink card stock, trimmed a small amount off the edge of one and adhered them together to create a gate fold card. I added THIS patterned paper to the squares and inside of the card as well...
Hi there, crafty friends. I’m sharing a simple and sweet shaker card today… I started by applying THIS and THIS ink to a piece of white card stock. When the colors meet in the middle, it creates a beautiful orange color. I spritzed it with some water for some added texture. I die-cut THIS die three times from white card stock and adhered them together. I spritzed some of THIS on the top layer...
Howdy, crafty friends. Today, I have two cards to share that came from one technique. Don’t you love when that happens!? … I started by die-cutting THIS gorgeous die from an alcohol ink background I had on hand. For the first card… I used the outline of piece from the die and adhered it to a note card stamped with THIS background stamp. I used THIS ink so it wouldn’t be too distracting and...
Hi there, crafty friends. Today’s cards all have rainbow backgrounds… For the first card… I inked up THIS stencil with a rainbow of distress inks to create a colorful sky. I used THIS die to create a border around the panel. I stamped and colored the sun image from THIS stamp set and used THESE coordinating dies to cut it out. I added some of THIS on top of the balloon for some shine...
