Fall Glowing Fireside Card

By KariV on November 12, 2023 in Paper Crafting, Thanksgiving

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.

I hope you enjoyed this project today! I’ll be back with another card to share soon!

Alice Plays Croquet

By KariV on November 11, 2023 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a new card video for you: Alice Plays Croquet. I’m using some new products from Miss Ink Stamps that I really love: the new Filigree Card Suit Stencil and the new Croquet stamp set from the Alice collection.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

Look how beautiful that stencil set is in the background! I hope you will watch the video to see how this card came together.

I hope you enjoyed this project today. I’ll be back real soon with more cards to share.

Frame into Wonderland

By KariV on October 28, 2023 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a Frame into Wonderland card with the Cheshire Cat. This is a fun card to make, and it does look a little dreamy!

Watch it below or in HD on YouTube:

See that frame…it’s the new Woodgrain Frame die from Miss Ink Stamps! It cuts a frame and embosses a wood grain design into the cardstock at the same time. I love this frame and I thought it would make the perfect picture frame into Wonderland!

I started watercoloring the aspen trees and die cut them out. Then I stamped the background in a soft grey ink. I colored the trees and sky with a soft Oxide ink treatment. Those footprints are from a new stencil by the same name. I love a purple footprint to mimic the colors on the Cheshire cat. (I love seeing him smiling up in the tree!)

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

Glow in the Dark Cards

By KariV on October 26, 2023 in Halloween, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have some Glow in the Dark Cards as a part of my Halloween card series. What’s even better: they have black kitty cats on them!

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

These cards were so fun and easy to make, and the addition of GLOW PASTE really makes them pop. I have brought in my black light to take pictures of them to show you the glowing backdrops for those kitties.

Aren’t they fun?! To make these cards I started off with the stenciled backgrounds in a few different colors. Then I made the glow paste circles on black cardstock.

I colored all those cute kitties up with Copic markers and used foam tape to attach them to the (dried) black circles.

I stamped the sentiments and the spiderwebs with black ink onto the card panels and put them all onto black cardstock mats.
