Croquet with the Queen of Hearts

By on November 25, 2023 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a new card playing Croquet with the Queen of Hearts. This is a classic scene and I really hope you enjoy this video below (or watch in HD on YouTube):

I used the new Croquet set from the Alice Collection at Miss Ink Stamps. For the rose bushes, I pulled in the Painting the Roses stamp set. For some more interest on the grass, I used the small spots stencil and for the sky the new layered stencil Card Suits.

I just love building a scene with these sets! The sentiment is perfect and to spell out the word “Croquet” I brought in the Modern Typeset Frame Die (that also includes an alphabet)!

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!

Fall Glowing Fireside Card

Hello! Today I have a fun Fall Glowing Fireside Card to share with a video. I love a good Fall card, and these Camping Critters are perfect for that!





Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:














		
		
			
			
		
	





How cute are these critters!? I love them. I also love this new Bonnie Birch Trees die. It creates so much texture and interest to your fall background! Can you see the subtle tan diagonal stripe on these trees?






		
		
			
			
		
	






		
		
			
			
		
	





I colored up the critters with Copic markers and added some extra “fire glow” on them with yellow markers. Watch the video to see just how I did this coloring.
