Churro Love

By on February 10, 2024 in Holidays, Paper Crafting, Valentines

Hello! Today I have a very special Churro Love card and video to share! It’s a quick video, so I hope you will check it out below or on YouTube:

This is a sweet little new stamp set called “Churrific” and it makes me hungry for churros! Lol. Sadly, I just found out that my Costco is no longer serving churros at the snack bar. So I guess all my churros will be in CARD FORM! (which is better for my diet anyway…ha ha).

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!

Today I  colored up these cute images with Prismacolor colored pencils. Watch my video to see my tips for coloring with colored pencils and a blending stump. I just adore these images.

Try this Masking Stencil Idea
By  on January 27, 2024  in Holidays, Paper Crafting, Valentines   

	

	    

Hello! Today I have a new Masking Stencil idea for you to try! I am creating a Valentine card with adorable stamps and stencils from Miss Ink Stamps.





Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:














		
		
			
			
		
	





I started out with a stencil that had much white space in between the stencil pattern. Then I used a MASKING stencil in a new way: to mask off the first stencil to be able to add ink to the white space! I hope you will watch the video to see what I mean.






		
		
			
			
		
	





I love this Snail image from the Snail Mail stamp set. Super cute! Today I colored it up in shades of pink and red for my Valentine card.






		
		
			
			
		
	





The love you sentiment features my FAVORITE alphabet die set! I used the placement stencil to line up the sentiment on my card.

Light Up Toucan Card
By  on January 26, 2024  in Holidays, Paper Crafting, Valentines   

	

	    

Hello! Today I have a fun Light Up Toucan Card to share, with a foiled background. This is a fun card and the light just dances off that foil.





Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:














		
		
			
			
		
	





I started out with the NEW ESP (Effortless Shimmer Paper) from Crafty Meraki. This paper is beautiful…and you can use this paper as is OR you can foil it to add some pretty color and shine.





For this background, I used the Cupid’s Canvas Effortless Shimmer Paper and foiled it with some pretty pink foil. When I added the light, it really makes things sing!






		
		
			
			
		
	





I hope you will take a look at the video to see how to add the light EASILY!
