Spot Foiling Cards

Hello! Today I’m sharing some fun cards using Spot Foiling. Since it’s a new year, I thought it was time to bring Alice back for some cardmaking, too! So, I’ve combined the two and created TWO cards to share with you.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

I think the Alice Collection might be my all-time favorite stamp collection in all my stamps! I hope you are not tired of seeing her yet in my creations.

Here, I masked off Alice and the tea cups before stamping that large mushroom: this makes it look like they are sitting right on top! Then I colored and fussy cut out the whole image.

I think she looks great with those foiled pink tea cups in the background!

For my second card, I used the Ins and Outs Bohemian stencil to mask off the center portion before adding the tea cups and foiling. This made a nice spot to stamp that gnome.

I just love a little red and pink ink this time of year! For both cards I used Saltwater Taffy Distress Ink as the base color….it looks beautiful with both PINK and RED foil.

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 hope you enjoyed these projects today. I’ll be back soon with more cards to share!

Heart Shaped Cards

Hello! I have some heart shaped cards to share with you. I am using the Pretty Bird Stamp set from Miss Ink stamps for these valentines, so I guess they are Valentines “Cawds”!

Watch the video below or on YouTube:

I made two different cards using different techniques: one using a masking technique, and one with glitter gel and a stencil.

This one uses a mask over the Wooden Heart stamp. I love to make it look a little more 3D using markers.

The second one is the glittery one! Oh how I love a glittery heart!

The sentiment is on the inside
