Hi again! Today I’m up on the Hedgehog Hollow blog with a cute Geometric Butterfly card. The sentiment on this card has me laughing…”You really are acute one.” It’s kinda a play on words about those triangles!
The butterfly is actually two layers:
And I created the background just using post-it tape and distress ink. With a few gold splatters. So easy!
To see the whole tutorial, visit the Hedgehog Hollow blog here.
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed this “cute” project!
I’m loving these geometric animals. There’s also a butterfly, a lion, and a unicorn. Oh just wait to see what else I have planned for cards coming soon!
I created the backgrounds of each of these cards using the geometric designs from the same kit.
This square geometric design is probably my favorite. I just stamped it repeatedly to create that background using Distress Oxide Ink!
For the wolf card background, I used another geometric shape and white heat embossed it onto grey cardstock. I think it looks cool with this wolf!
To finish off these cards, I popped the images up using double layer of foam tape. These turned out so cool, don’t you think? And they look a bit masculine…which is not easy for me to create!
Love them and I hope this inspired you to try some geometric watercoloring yourself.
Happy New Year! I took a little break between Christmas and New Years for some much needed time off! But I just got the new Hedgehog Hollow January Kit and I couldn’t wait to share! I have two videos for you today, the first one is the unveiling of the kit!!
And the second one is the first set of cards I made with this kit.
Check out the video below for the unveiling, or watch it on YouTube:
I really really LOVE this kit! The geometric shapes are a dream!
I just had to make some projects first using those chipboard pieces. Watch my video below or on YouTube for two ideas on using those chipboard cut outs:
Oh yes…I made a GOLDEN UNICORN! Perfect for the sentiment: “Follow your dreams, they know the way.”
I also created a sparkly, colored butterfly and I show you just how to do this in the video. I hope you will take a look!
Thanks for visiting today! Happy New Year! I really do hope you will follow your dreams….
Hello again! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas! Now that Christmas is over, it’s time to focus on a few more New Years cards for me…how about you?
Today I’m over on the Hedgehog Hollow blog sharing this fun Faux Shaker card! I used products from the Hedgehog Hollow December box, and added a couple foxes from the Pretty Pink Posh Woodland Critters set.
I used embossable plastic for the sentiment because I wanted to see through to the beautiful iridescent fireworks!
For all the details on how to make this card, head on over to my Hedgehog Hollow post here.
Hello! Today I am sharing my last cards as a Designer for Our Daily Bread Designs. I have absolutely loved designing for ODBD, and I will certainly miss all the fun!
My first card is for my friends at ODBD, using the Winter Greetings stamp set with that beautiful owl. (I’ll always love you, ODBD friends and team! And a big thank you to Kelley for having me!)
I love that this set has a variety of greetings for both winter cards and other sentiments! I used the Pine branches and Pinecones dies on this card (some of my favorites).
My next card shows the beautiful snowy trees from the December release called Peaceful Wishes.
I added some glitter to those snowy trees and used Distress ink to ink around the edges of this card. If you don’t have a tag die, never fear…you can use a rectangle die in a smaller size to make a tag! I love how it looks with some grey pine branches and a blue thread bow. The frame is from this set.
My last card is a favorite:
I cut out that PEACE word from this die, then colored it with Copic markers in a variety of violets. I added dots using a white gel pen.
Then I cut out the Snowflake Sky die and used it as a stencil. To make it feel soft and dreamy, I used Clarity brushes to add the Distress ink in Salty Ocean, and Tattered Jeans. Those Clarity brushes are wonderful!
I hope you enjoyed my projects today. I hope you have a very happy Holiday season and a Merry Christmas!
