Hello! Today I have some cute cards to show appreciation for nurses (and doctors) and medical professionals. This image is currently a free digital stamp from Polkadoodles, click here to find it and download the bundle for yourself.
Isn’t she cute? I colored her up with Copic Markers, trying some new combinations. It’s all a part of the Daily Marker 30 Day fun!
I die cut the main panel with a stitched border, and added it to a green plaid patterned paper. Then I added a few hearts in different sizes.
If you want to color this image up yourself, go get this digi while it lasts! And a BIG THANK YOU to all our front-line workers who are helping in important ways. Stay healthy!
Happy Easter, friends! Today I have a cute Easter card to share featuring more cute bunnies. These are from Heffy Doodle and they are some of my favorites!
This time, the bunnies are hiding eggs AND carrots! Don’t they look like they are having fun!?
I colored them up with Copic markers and used the same yellow plaid paper for the background and the die cut sentiment (also from Heffy Doodle).
Every year, I think I can make a bunch of cards using all my favorite bunny stamps. It’s a great thought, but might literally be impossible. I’ll probably keep on trying until I finally accomplish it. Lol.
I hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend. See you next time!
Hello! I’m back with a new card using the Hedgehog Hollow February 2020 Kit. I saw that floral heart stamp in the kit and I fell in LOVE!! So of course I had to create with that first AND add some beautiful gemstones. Yes!
This floral heart was designed by Sophia Caldwell, and you already know I’m a BIG FAN of hers! So I stamped it first with amalgam ink (perfect for coloring with Copic markers because it doesn’t smear).
I cut the banner and added the Special Friend Sentiment on using the original Misti. I used some acetate over the banner so I could bend that stamp to fit just right on that banner. The stamp will stick to the acetate so then you can pick it up with the Misti lid. Perfect.
I added that stamped banner with 1/4″ foam tape. Then I inked up around the card using 2 colors of Distress Ink.
I added the gemstones in a sort of diagonal line across the card front using my favorite new embellishment tool! (see the supplies listed below to check it out!)

I hope you enjoyed this floral card with gemstones today…you know those are two of my favorite things! Lol. See you next time!
Hello again! Today I’m using the new December 2019 Hedgehog Hollow Kit to create a cute bird in a nest card. I’m sharing this on the Hedgehog Hollow blog today, too!
This card came together pretty quickly. I started with a card panel of Neenah Solar White 80# paper and stamped the little bird with Copic friendly ink. Then I stamped the “nest” I created with the swirl stamp in two shades of brown ink.
I colored up the bird with copic markers and added some dots with copics and colored pencils. Then I white heat embossed the sentiment.
At this point, it was difficult to read the sentiment because it was white embossing on white paper. So I used make up brushes to brush on some Distress Ink.
I only inked it up around the “nest” and left it softer color toward the top. Then I die cut the cross-stitched rectangle, and cut down the outer rectangle as well so I could add some sparkly paper peeking from the background!
For the final touch, I added some Nuvo Jewel drops under the sentiment. Isn’t this birdie so cute?

Today I have a quick cardshare, with a new Blonde color combo that I love! This image is from Tiddlyinks and is currently a freebie digital stamp in their shop…go check it out here.
The Copic Colors I used for the hair are YR24, Y21, Y11, Y000. This is a new favorite combo. I’ve been searching for a blonde that’s not too yellow, not too brown, and this one is just perfect!
I had a great time coloring this image. What a cutie!
