Happy Friday!

alcohol ink, Birthday, Cutting Dies w/ matching stamp, Dull Glossy Paper, pattern paper

I’ve been working on some Birthday cards. I like to try and do a couple of cards with the same layout so I have a couple of samples. I also have been wanting to do some more snowman cards since we have so much snow!

If kisses were snowflakes

Dull Glossy Paper, Snowman, Winter

Fresh snow this week so sharing a snowman card! White paper is dull glossy and snowman is colored with alcohol ink markers. The snowflake was stamped three times before re-inking to get the faded look. Links are below!

Coffee, Dull Glossy Paper

Happy Wednesday! Love cards can be sent on any day, not just Valentine’s. This dry embossing folder is by Cuttlebug and I believe it has been discontinued but might still be found on Ebay.. or another heart folder would work too. For circles, I always stamp first and then cut! It is easier to line up the punch or cutting die than the stamp but do what works best for you. The coffee beans and cup were colored with alcohol ink markers. Some other options I want to try for this card is a brown swatch behind the white strip and the stitched hearts on top of the solid. Links are below!

Baby Cards, Cutting Dies w/ matching stamp, Dull Glossy Paper

It’s time for a big snow storm! The snow started around 4 pm so it’s a perfect night for Stamping. My daughter left some bunnies on my desk all colored so I decided to make them into baby cards. One blue and one pink!

I have this jar of scraps that when I start with an 81/2×12 piece of paper and cut them down to swatches of either 4×51/4 or 37/5×5 I ended up with these perfectly sized pieces of paper that I used to layer on my background. I would have liked a gray to match my bunny but couldn’t find any so I went with what I had for the card. The blue background was a stencil my son found cleaning out a cupboard and he put it on my desk (hadn’t gotten around to putting it away yet!) so I used it for that background.

Stamps Used: G329 Spring Bunny; E132 Congrats on your new baby;

I did a simple inside but will probably add more before I send the cards.

Inside Stamp: F134 Greatest Blessing ;

Hope you your week is starting out good!

Three Potted Rose cards

Dull Glossy Paper, flowers, Just a Note, Missing You

Happy Monday! I love using textured paper for a background. On all of these cards, the background is 4×5-1/4″. The white paper (dull glossy) is 4×2-5/8″ with the color swatch sized 4-1/4×2-7/8″. I used 3D foam squares to pop up the smaller swatches with one foam square in each corner and one in the middle. The roses were colored with alcohol ink markers. Links are below!

Aloe plant – wishing you… card

Dull Glossy Paper, Thinking of You

Happy Saturday and wishing you a song in your heart! The background paper on this card is white felt and I used glue to assemble all the pieces except the aloe plant in a pot. For the aloe plant, a 3D foam square was used to pop it up (tip below!) and it was colored with alcohol ink markers. The white swatch with the words and squares is dull glossy paper.

Spring bunnies

alcohol ink, Dull Glossy Paper, Easter

Good afternoon! Sharing several bunny cards today. We are loving this heart embossing folder and will be adding some swatches to the website once back in the shop. Keep checking if interested! Let us know in the comments if we need to work faster on making it available 😉. The circle with words on it is 2” and I used a punch but a cutting die works too.

Water Can Downloads

2023 New Releases, Down Loadable Images, flowers, Get Well Soon, Valentine's Day

Good Evening. We have some fun NEW downloadable images! I have been working on some cute valentines. These cards are 2.75” x 4.25”. Cute for packages and for fun. It also gives me an excuse to use my envelope punch and make my own envelope!

After punching this blue circle out of a piece of paper I realized it already had words stamped on it so I used it on the next card because I needed to send a get well card

So how downloaded images work…You purchase online and then from home print on your own paper and make into cards. They are so much fun and so much cheaper to produce and purchase! Any questions let me know!!??
