Good morning! Do you ever get card stock that is just hard for you to work with? This color came in a pack and I’ve struggled with it for months now but I think it came together in this card! Is it working?! 😆

Here’s a very simple card with the fondue cake. We always stamp the circle dots first and then punch out. It is too hard trying to stamp after it’s punched but can be done with the MISTI stamping tool. Anyone dreaming of chocolate cake now? 😆

Coffee and friends card today. Stamped on dull gloss white paper and the scallop border looks distressed on this card but it is actually solid. This effect can be created by not pressing hard along the edges or if stamped on an uneven surface. Also I did not re-ink the stamp on the second and third time to create lighter images.

Good morning and happy new year! Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend. 🥳
The two cards today show different ways to color the EE53 skinny candles. One of our favorites is a gradient and the other is to add stripes/dots. With both, we start with the lightest color marker and then add the darker color. White paper is dull gloss. The pink striped background paper is from a paper pack. The green striped background we created using the HH28 dots and lines border stamp.

Stamps: EE53 Skinny Candles, G344 Birthday Wish
Good Morning and happy Thursday! We are working on staying positive over here and believing in good things to come. This is a fairly quick card with four stamps. The snowman and white background piece of paper are dull gloss. We stamp these snowflakes multiple times before re-inking to create variation. The snowman was colored with copic markers. Hope everyone is having a good week!

Almost Friday! Here we have a simple holiday card and I smudged the words again slightly. 🤦🏻♀️ This time as I was gluing and as I tried to lift it up, the paper started to rip so figured it was good as is. You’d think I would learn but just get too excited and on a roll. 🤪

Bonus post! This is a quick card using one stamp. I love this one to randomly send to a friend. 😊
Stamp: E294 Not Together Smile
Hello everyone! Today we have a motorcycle birthday card. Found this graphite color in a buried paper stash and loved how it looked with the motorcycles. Had a little mess up smudging the B on my first attempt but I’m glad I hadn’t glue it yet and was able to re-stamp! That’s the tricky thing with the dull gloss paper, need to allow the ink to dry completely.
