Hello! Today I am a part of a video hop featuring the new July Crafty Crew Kit! I love this kit, it has so many goodies and a camping theme. Today I’m featuring Camping Meadow with some copic coloring.
This kit is pretty great, and if you haven’t seen the unboxing video, watch it HERE.
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’ll be back soon to share more cards and videos! Thanks for stopping by!
Hello! Today I am excited to share a video about adding fun details to a card. I first colored up my image on bristol paper using Zigs, then I added a bunch of extra details. This detail work is fun and EASY, and it adds quite a bit of interest to an otherwise fairly simple card.
I love this butterfly image…and those sentiments are ALL really good, too. Perfect for a time like this!
See all that fun detail work?! I love it. Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:
I used four kinds of detail-adding elements: a white gel pen, a Copic multi-liner, Nuvo Jewel drops (translucent), and Zig marker. These are all great ways to add DOTS to your cards. Be sure to watch the video for the details.
Adding this kind of detail is something to try at home and see what you like! I can’t wait to see what you create.

Want to know a secret? That background was not going to be a stormy background. It was going to be a bright, watercolored background. But it morphed into this stormy background, with that angel butterfly staying calm amidst it all! We can all learn from this bright butterfly.
I hope you enjoyed this project today! See you real soon with another card to share.
Hello! Today I have a cheerful card for you using products from the Hedgehog Hollow February kit. It starts with a rainbow of colors of Distress Ink so you know it’s going to be cheery! I used Picked Raspberry, Worn Lipstick, Orange Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Evergreen Bough, Peacock Feathers, Denim Jeans, Shaded Lilac, and Wilted Violet. With all those colors, you are sure to smile! (at least they made me smile)
I used some die cut hexagons that would normally just be thrown out! But they were perfect for my project today. To adhere these in perfect alignment, I put all the colored hexagons into the die cut, then picked it all up with some Glad Press N Seal. Then I turned it over and added some glue ONLY to the rainbow pieces. I attached it all to the card panel, let it dry for a minute, then removed the die cut to reveal the perfect placement of all those beautiful hexagons!
I used the bees, bee trails and BEE happy sentiment from the stamp set that came in the February Kit, and as an outline for the bottom layer I used the small hexagon stamp repeatedly for the border.
I popped up those bees with some Scotch 3M foam tape (the mega roll!) to give more dimension. I put some craft foam between the top layer and the bottom layer for even more dimension!
I hope you enjoyed this cheery project today! Check out how you can get the Hedgehog Hollow Kit here. And she is taking pre-orders for the April Kit (which I hear has some Art Impressions!!)
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.
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.
