Creative Ways with Halloween Dies

By on September 10, 2023 in Halloween, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’ve got a new video in my Halloween Card Series sharing creative ways with Halloween Dies. This spooky tree is an absolute favorite of mine.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

I loved creating this card with that Tree die as a background design element. I hope you will watch the video for some tips on creating this, and heat embossing on that Trick or Treat to create a shiny element. I create a special “tool” for easy embossing on a large die like this one.

I was inspired by the black, purple, and white candy corns…I hear they are Blackberry Cobbler flavored, but I have never tried one. Have you?

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.

Coloring Unicorn Hair

Hello! Today I’m coloring unicorn hair and sharing all my tricks in my latest video. These unicorns deserved a day at the beach…you can see they are having a great time! 





Watch my video below or in HD on YouTube to learn: How to color unicorn hair, how to make a beach scene, how to create fluffy clouds using a brilliant stencil design.














		
		
			
			
		
	





Just how happy are these unicorns because they took a beach day!? LOL. I think I need a beach day!






		
		
			
			
		
	





I started by putting together our beach cabin…and made the wood to look a little weathered with my coloring. Then I colored up those unicorn…don’t they look just magical?





For the background I used a variety of stencils. These stencils are a BRILLIANT design and allow you to put your cardstock right inside to get lots of multiple looks! You definitely need to check out my video to see what I am talking about.






		
		
			
			
		
	





I really love how this card came together. I hope you enjoy!

Repeating Patterns and Yoga Frogs

Hello! Today I have a card using Repeating Patterns and Yoga Frogs. I love these happy frogs from the Be Hoppy stamp set from Heffy Doodle. A Couple of the frogs look like they could be meditating or practicing yoga.





Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:














		
		
			
			
		
	





How happy are those little frogs?! And they must have some great balance, since they are practicing yoga on some lily pads! LOL.






		
		
			
			
		
	





The Polka dots are the repeating pattern here: stenciled on the background panel and colored onto the frogs body and bellies! I just love a polka dot frog.






		
		
			
			
		
	





The Build A Pond die set is so great…with a couple sizes of ponds you can use, as well as lily pads and flowers like I used here. There are also grasses and cattails and vines to build any pond scene or lagoon.

The Tigers are Loose!
By  on June 11, 2023  in Paper Crafting   

	

	    

Hello! Today I am excited to share a circus animal card using some awesome new dies from Heffy Doodle! The tigers are Loose, and there’s an elephant on the loose, too.





Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:














		
		
			
			
		
	





The circus tents dies are really quite spectacular…you can create many color schemes with these. Today I chose a classic Circus set of colors: blue, red and yellow.





I put together those dies so quickly…and with two tents, it really fills up an A2 card perfectly.






		
		
			
			
		
	





The animals are from the Two by Two Zoo Animals and they look adorable colored up with some detail dots in Copic markers.





I used a very happy background stencil for that detail Layer…and some patterned paper that I inked in red for the background.






		
		
			
			
		
	





Each layer has another level of dimension. I love a card with dimension! I finished it off with some Ringmaster Sparkle Mix.

Special Bird Delivery
By  on May 14, 2023  in Paper Crafting   

	

	    

Hello! Today I have a Special Bird Delivery card for you. These are some of my very favorite birds from Heffy Doodle (from a couple different sets) and I think they work so well on a card together.





Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:














		
		
			
			
		
	





I love the new Special Delivery set so much for any kind of card (not just baby cards) and I thought it would be fun to have a variety of delivering birds! So I chose the owl and the cute little toucan from the sets listed in the supply list below to add to the trio of deliverers.






		
		
			
			
		
	





The Showtime Frame Dies are so much fun…see the dots around the edge of the white cardstock? That allows you to put a bright paper behind for another touch of interest to your card!





The center frame is also from that die set, so you get a lot of bang for your buck! I just love the variation to this frames die set.






		
		
			
			
		
	





Just how happy are these delivery birds?! I love them. I ink blended a rainbow of colors before cutting it out with the Just For You shadow die. It really pops against a black background shadow.





I die cut some extra of each of the birds to create some nice dimension on this card. The finishing touch is that Frozen Fractal Sparkle mix…a few sequins and a few gems really make it sparkle!






		
		
			
			
		
	
Can you see that dimension on the birds and the sentiment?
