Hi there, crafty friends. I’m back with more inspiration from THIS new release… I started by stamping THIS background stamp on four different shades of blue card stock. I cut out section from each and adhered them to one background to add color and dimension to the waves. This was highly inspired by Yana Smakula and her lesson in Spring Card Camp 1 over at Online Card Classes. I silver heat embossed the sentiment...
Hi, crafty friends. Today’s card is a scene building card… I started by embossing THESE dies towards the bottom of the card panel using THIS embossing mat with my die-cutting machine. Instead of cutting the paper, it makes an impression. I blended some of THIS ink on the waves to make them a bit darker and stand out. I also added THIS for some shine. I die-cut a sand hill using THIS border die....
Hello, crafty friends. Did you know that Simon Says Stamp features a new brand every month? Honey Bee Stamps (one of my favorite companies) was featured for June HERE. Since we have one more day left in June, I thought I would share a card I made with some of my favorite Honey Bee products… I started by die-cutting THIS die four times. I added some brick stenciling tot he bottom of the top...
Hello, crafty friends. I’m back with another card share from THIS new release from Simon Says Stamp. I shared THIS dog card recently and I wanted to show you another example of that design… I started by stamping THIS background stamp using THIS ink on THIS card stock. I die-cut and THIS dog die and THIS word die and adhered them on top of the background. I added one of THESE thin frames and...
Hello, crafty friends. I’m excited to be a part of this blog hop celebrating THIS new release from Simon Says Stamp. I started by creating a side fold A2 size black card base. From the front panel of the card, I trimmed 2 inches off the top, creating a shorter flap. This flap was created so the fairy image could be suspended. I stamped and colored the front and back fairy image from THIS...
Howdy, crafty friends. Simon Says Stamp has a new release HERE and today’s card features some of the new products… I started by ink blending THIS stencil with three colors of Distress inks. I die-cut THIS word from black and white card stock and adhered it to the card. Under it, I stamped the birthday word from THIS stamp set. I die-cut THIS adorable puppy from brown and black card stock and blended some...
Howdy, crafty friends. I have a clean and simple card to share today… I started by stamping THIS sentiment and THIS bear image on a white panel. I white heat embossed the remaining sentiment from THIS same stamp set and colored the bear image in with Copic Markers. I finished off the card by die-cutting hearts using THIS die and adding THIS and THIS on top for some shine and sparkle. I adhered the...
Hello, crafty friends. I have a couple of cards to share today for first responders… I started by creating a gatefold card. I started with a 8.5 x 5.5 piece of white card stock and scored it at 2 1/4 inch from both sides. Next, I stamped THIS background stamp on a blue and red A2 panel in coordinating ink for a tone on tone look. I cut each piece in half and adhered...
Hi, crafty friends. I’m back today with another card share… I stamped THIS background stamp on a blue panel using a rainbow of Distress Oxide Inks. I chose to use Distress Oxide inks instead of regular dye ink because that ink has a pigment property so it stamps vibrant on colored card stock. Also, to ink up the large image with full size ink pads, I just used the corner and swiped the color...
Hello, crafty friends. Today’s card share features THIS new card kit… I started by stamping the row of houses three times, shifting it each time to get a different look. I stamped the sentiment on top using the same stamp set (that is included in the kit). I colored in the house on the bottom right with THESE. By coloring only one house, I can spotlight that image against all of the black and...
