Sugar Skull Ink Blended Cards and GIVEAWAY!

Hello! Today I have a simple card share using the small Sugar Skull stamps in the September 2020 Hedgehog Hollow Kit.

I’ve been moving for the past week or so, and I really needed a break. This easy card really helped to reduce my stress levels…and I love how it turned out!

This is a favorite technique of mine, too: heat emboss the skull on the panel (I used both clear and white heat embossing powder), then ink on your favorite colors using a blending brush. I chose some fall colors of Distress Inks.

I added some gemstones in matching color to their eyes to add some unexpected sparkle!

I have absolutely LOVED creating with this kit. If you want to get one of your own, head on over to the SHOP to see if there are any still in stock!

Or, if you want to WIN the stamps and dies pictured below, head over to my Instagram and check out my giveaway HERE. (this will be a short giveaway so I can get these out to the winner for creating soon!)

To see my other cards I’ve created with this kit, check out these posts HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE.

Be sure to leave a comment and head over to Instagram to enter the giveaway! Thanks for stopping by today.

Color Changing Vinyl on Cards

Hello! Today I wanted to share a card using Opal Color-changing vinyl! This vinyl came in the Hedgehog Hollow September kit and oh…it is BEAUTIFUL! I fell in love and so I decided to make a Love card with it.

This is a simple card because I wanted those flags to SHINE!! I had a great time coloring up these people because there is just so much detail.

For all the details and the Copic colors I used, please head over the Hedgehog Hollow blog HERE.

Coloring with Embossing Powder

Hello! Have you ever tried coloring with embossing powder? It’s really fun and great for when you are overwhelmed picking out marker colors.

Today I’m using the Sugar Skull stamp from the Hedgehog Hollow September Kit to show you just how this is done! Watch my short video below or in HD on YouTube:

I have to admit, this is a very dramatic (and scary) card…and not my usual style! But my husband says it’s one of his favorites, so I will post it…

Look how fun that embossing powder is! It shines in the light.

Queen of Hearts Shaker with Flock

Hello! Today I have a Queen of Hearts Shaker card with Flock to share! This card has been in my head for a really long time and now it’s finally coming to life.

See that heart on the top? It’s made with Flock Transfer Sheets and Deco Transfer Gel…so it has a fuzzy feeling to it. Such a fun, tactile addition to add to your cards.

I show you how to do this and even show you a BONUS card in my video. Watch it below or in HD on YouTube:

I colored up more images than I needed this time, which is why I made an extra card. I love making more than one at a time when I have extras!

These Queen’s Guard small Embellishments from Miss Ink Stamps inspired the entire card:

I love that they look like mini playing cards!! Too cute.
