Magnetic Alice Bookmarks

By on March 26, 2025 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have some Magnetic Alice Bookmarks to share and a video showing how to make them!

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

The SWAK Heart Postage dies are so versatile…I’ve used them to create cards, shakers, and now magnetic bookmarks! I just had to use them with the Alice Collection from Miss Ink Stamps (to go with my Alice book of course!)

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!

I love the Magnolia stamp from Miss Ink Stamps for a Spring Card! Beautiful products combine for a beautiful card. I hope you’ll check out the video for the full tutorial.

Big Bug Hugs!

Hello, today I have a Bug Hugs card that’s as cute as a bug! I love to create cards with Whimsy Stamps, however, it’s rare I share a video. TODAY I have a video to share creating this Bug Hugs card! I also have a bonus simple card at the end *Wink!*





Watch it below or in HD on YouTube:














		
		
			
			
		
	





Aren’t these bugs so cute?! Their expressions really make me smile.






		
		
			
			
		
	





I used the BIG Hugs sentiment die, but did a little slick switcharoo and made it say BUG Hugs instead!





Here’s the bonus card using the same supplies, in a different way:

It’s a Great Day to Be Alive!
By  on March 12, 2025  in Paper Crafting   

	

	    

Hello! Today I have some ALIVE cards to share with you using the new Robot Life stamp set from Miss Ink Stamps.





Watch the video below or on YouTube:














		
		
			
			
		
	





I used the Scene Builder Treeline stencil to create the background for this first card. The images and sentiments are all from the new Robot Life Stamp set. I added some butterfly trails using my favorite new white pens.






		
		
			
			
		
	





I just love that “Need Input” stencil I used for the background of this one. I stenciled it twice: first on red cardstock with grey ink, then on while cardstock with blue ink. Then I cut the postage frame from my favorite postage die set (linked below).





Do you get the reference? No cancellation…alive forever! If you have seen the movie you might get how I came to this sentiment! (I cannot mention it here, but it’s an older movie with a robot that looked very similar!)

Make a Full Shaker Owl Card
By  on February 26, 2025  in Paper Crafting   

	

	    

Hello! Today I’m sharing how to make a full shaker owl card with the amazing die set called Postage, Seal and Shaker Collection die set from Miss Ink Stamps.





I love that there are SO many things you can do with this set! Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:














		
		
			
			
		
	





I hope you’ll watch the video for some tips on making a successful shaker panel. I love making my own shaker panels because using the acetate I share in my list, I feel like I can make my panel flatter and easy to attach to my card base, easy to mail, and easy to shake! Today I am using this full shaker panel with the Owls stamps set.
