Christmas is the Perfect Reason

By on November 5, 2019 in Christmas, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Christmas is the perfect reason to send cards! Yes! And today I have a fun project with a sentiment that says just that.

This sentiment is fun to remind those people in your life that they are HANDMADE CARD worthy!! Lol. I know you know what I’m talking about…if you make handmade cards that is. Only the best people get a handmade card!

For this card I did some ink blending with my new favorite domed ink blending tools. Then I splattered on some white Gansai Tambi paint. Those cute little Christmas lights were colored using Copic markers. I added silver embossing powder to the part that screws into the strand, and some glitter glue to all the lightbulbs for a bit of sparkle. You know I love my sparkle!

I popped up each individual light onto the strand using foam tape.

This is a simple enough card to make, but I don’t think it would be good for mass production with all those little lights. Maybe if you left them flat and didn’t pop them up it would be much faster.

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!

Thanks for stopping by!

You Know You’re Getting Old…When Santa Looks Attractive

By on November 4, 2019 in Christmas, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I could not stop giggling while making this card. This sentiment is so, so funny…and I couldn’t wait to show you a couple of card options for it.

First, I have colored up Santa with Copics and added the sentiment below him. Then I die cut the panel with the Cross-Stitched Stackables and adhered it to fun foam. I added the entire panel to some Echo Park holly paper (that I love!)

The best sentiment!

Isn’t he cute? Would you even go as far to say that Santa is looking attractive?! Lol.

I’ve got a quick video tutorial, watch it below or on YouTube:

If you are a Copic Colorer, I have the Copic Color Chart for you here. Roll your cursor over the image below to PIN IT for later.

If you are NOT a Copic Colorer, I have one more card idea to share below! Keep on scrolling.

Now, if you want to use this sentiment on a quick card (with no Copic Coloring) I’ve got you covered! Try using a stencil to make some green lines, then use these Bella-Pops to make a fast and cute card.

I hope this post made you smile. Thanks for stopping by. I’m really looking forward to the holidays this year and sending out a few of these cards to my *older* friends. Lol.
