Bee Happy Rainbow card with the HH February Kit

By KariV on February 21, 2019 in Paper Crafting

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!!)

See you next time!

Watercolored Owl and Wolf

By KariV on January 17, 2019 in Paper Crafting

Hello everyone! I shared the new January Hedgehog Hollow kit with the geometric goodies, and today I have some cards using the OWL and WOLF to share.

I watercolored these up using Zig Clean Color Real brush markers using my favorite trick! Embossing powder! Yep…it keeps the colors in the lines!

Watch my video below or on YouTube:

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.

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy New Year, Foxy!

By KariV on December 27, 2018 in Paper Crafting

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.

Thanks for stopping by! Happy New Year!

Gingerbread Hot Chocolate

By KariV on November 29, 2018 in Christmas, Paper Crafting

Did you know you can add gingerbread flavoring to your Hot Chocolate at Starbucks? I saw this the other day and I thought…well, that sounds interesting! I haven’t tried it yet, but these cards today are inspired by that idea.

Do you prefer whipped cream in your hot chocolate?

Or do you prefer marshmallows?

I used products from the November Hedgehog Hollow box to make these cards. But I cut the coffee cups from my Silhouette! The cute background paper is from the Limited Edition Christmas Box.

For more information about these cards and the products, visit the Hedgehog Hollow blog here.

Linking up to the SSS Wednesday Anything Goes Challenge.

Thanks for stopping by!
