Holiday Shaker Tags

By KariV on December 11, 2022 in Christmas, Holidays

Hello! Today I have 3 holiday shaker tags to share along with a video on how to put them together! When you have beautiful products like this Tag Along die from Heffy Doodle, it’s easy to build a shaker tag.

Watch the video below or on YouTube:

These tags were all made with some new favorites of mine from Heffy Doodle!

Tag 1: Happy Christmas Elf

For the first tag, I stenciled the Happy stencil on the background with red ink. Then I cut out the Tag Along die using the Tinsel Town paper from Heffy Doodle. (This was a part of their Mega Day sale, and I hope they have in their shop available soon!)

The images, including that happy elf are from Santa’s Village stamp set! I love it with the Christmas die as well. Watch the video to see how to assemble these tags with the shaker Sparkle Mix elements inside!

Tag 2: Santa’s workshop

For this one I changed up the color of the paper, but the images are all from Santa’s Village again. I added a candy cane to Santa’s hand…isn’t that perfect?

Tag 3: Winter Wonderland

The color scheme changed to blue & white for this tag. I love the happy penguin and snowman from the Wanna Build a Snowman stamp set!

The background is the Notre Dame stencil inked up with a light blue ink. Then I stamped on the winter wonderland in blue ink.

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 hope you enjoyed these projects today. I love a fun holiday tag! I’ll be back with more card inspiration!

Hot Cocoa Gift Cards

By KariV on November 13, 2022 in Christmas, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’m sharing Hot Cocoa Gift Card Holders using some new favorite products from Heffy Doodle!

Watch the video below or on YouTube:

I have 3 different card ideas for this set (and that’s not all there is to do with this set), but I do hope this inspires you!

1. Front Flap Card

This first card is so fun…it has a front flap for your gift card AND you can open the card to write a sentiment too!

2. Fall Shaker Card

This is an easy way to make a shaker! I absolutely adore the Sparkle Mixes from Heffy Doodle: not only do they have sequins, but they also have GEMS!

3. Holiday Shaped Card

This hot cocoa cup makes the cutest shaped card! It’s so easy when you follow my trick I share in the video. And YES, that is corrugated cardboard I die cut for the holder!

There’s still plenty of room to add a gift card inside!

I hope you enjoyed these projects today! I’ll be back soon with more cards to share!

Bats & Spiders!

By KariV on October 9, 2022 in Halloween, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’m so excited to share a new video with some interesting backgrounds for Bats & Spiders. I’m using some new stamps & dies from Heffy Doodle…and this one called Let’s Hang Out is a favorite.

Watch the video below or on YouTube:

Aren’t these bats and spiders the cutest? I love them so much…better than real ones! lol.

I started out with a couple backgrounds that are so fun for these critters, and then I share how to put these cards together in the video.

I hope you enjoyed these projects today! Thanks for stopping by!

Heffy Doodle New Release Inspiration Blog Hop

By KariV on September 7, 2022 in Halloween, Paper Crafting

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle New Release Inspiration Blog Hop! We are so excited to share amazing cards from our Design Team members using the new release! For today’s special Blog Hop, you can win a £50 voucher to the Heffy Doodle store! You can shop the BRAND NEW RELEASE HERE.

Today I’ve made TWO cards to share with you, so let’s get started!

Card 1: Trick or Treat Shaker Lollipop Card

I am loving the new Trick or Treat Jumbo Sentiment Die. Today I am going to use a Halloween color combination that I have always wanted to try: PINK, ORANGE, BLACK, and GRAY.

I cut the Trick or Treat Jumbo sentiment die out of pink pearl paper, and then I cut a second sentiment from black cardstock for the shadow. I offset the black cardstock a little to give it some depth.

I chose the NEW Pumpkin Spice Sparkle Mix to use on this card…together with some TREATS from the NEW Sweet Tooth Shaker Dies. These dies can create lollipops, cake pops, wrapped candies, and shaker pops! I’m sure there’s more combinations, too! Today I made some lollipops and cake pops.

How cute is that shaker lollipop?! I put the lollipops together with the Trick or Treat Sentiment and added the gray striped paper from the NEW 6×6 Fright Night Patterned Paper Pack for this first card.

I scattered more of the sparkle mix around the card for good measure. This one is fun to shake!

Card 2: Cake Pops Birthday Card

Since I had already created extra cake pops, I wanted to add them to a card! So I created a birthday card and popped up those pops with foam tape.

The hearts in the background are from the NEW Love is Everywhere Stencil. I love this stencil. The sentiment is from the Sweet as Pie special stamp set (that’s free with qualifying orders! See below).

I love that there is a drippy frosting die in this Sweet Tooth Shaker Dies set…perfect for these cake pops! I cut the “popsicle sticks” from woodgrain paper that I inked on with distress inks.

The frame is cut from the NEW Elm Street Dies. The frame is so perfect for a lot of different cards, not just Halloween cards! I can see a lot of use for this frame die in my future.

I hope you enjoyed these projects today! I’ve gathered the supplies I’ve used and included them here in case you are interested.

Heffy Friends Inspiration Blog Hop

By KariV on October 19, 2021 in Uncategorized

Welcome to the Heffy Friends Inspiration Blog Hop! For today’s special Blog Hop, you can win a £50 voucher to the Heffy Doodle store! (See details at the end of this post to see how you can win!)

Today I have THREE cards to share with you using some of my favorite new products from Heffy Doodle.

CARD ONE: You are LLamazing!

This card was a blast to make with the new ARIZONA stencil! I love that stencil so much…you can change it around to get the look you want to make cactus and 2 styles of mountains! I also colored up those llamas using my favorite “curly hair” technique.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube to find out how easy it is!

I love those happy llamas!

CARD 2: Alpaca my bags

For this card, I used the llamas again with more of a “traveling” theme. Those little suitcases are the cutest! I used the Fiesta stencil to ink up three colors of cardstock, then cut them at an angle and used one of each color to create the background. (this technique is also shown in my video!)

The sentiment is perfect for this card, don’t you think? For these “alpacas” I colored them up using more of a dot technique, rather than the curly hair technique.

CARD 3: Mole Lotta Love

This last card features an easy interactive mechanism made with the mini double slider die from Heffy Doodle. I couldn’t resist these little moles (which are currently a gift with purchase)

Card closed…what is lurking behind that grassy hill?

Card opened to reveal the mole with a rose!

I was inspired by some Halloween colors for this one (and my fingernails…LOL!)…and made it with dark purples, greens and blacks. To see how easy that interactive die is to put together on your card, watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

I can just imagine all the possibilities for this die!
