Stained Glass Cards

By KariV on April 27, 2024 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have some Stained Glass Cards and a video to share! I have two different ways to create a stained glass look…and I love them both.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

The first card I made has a light up feature and a vellum “stained glass” window. I love the silver leading on this one, which matches the silver frame of this card.

I used the remainder of the silver cardstock to create the following card:

What?! You don’t see the silver? That’s because I treated it with some Distress Paint in Black Soot. I love how the effect turned out. See it even better in the video!

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 the Stained Glass video and cards today. I’ll be back with more cards to share soon!

Earth Day: You Mean the World

By KariV on April 13, 2024 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’m so excited to share a new card and video featuring the Bunny & Bear: The World stamp set from Miss Ink Stamps. You know I love the Bunny & Bear collection, and this stamp is so sweet! It’s perfect for the upcoming Earth Day on April 22nd.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

I have to say, I was impressed with the Distress Watercolor pencils, they feel substantial in my hand and they are so creamy and easy to blend. I share some of my tips for using them in the video.

I used a favorite shortcut for the background watercolor design: patterned paper! Lol. I had this particular paper in my stash and it was begging to be used on this project. I do love how it turned out.

I hope you love this sweet card as much as I do! I’ll be back with more cards to share soon. Happy Earth Day!

Churro Love

By KariV on February 10, 2024 in Holidays, Paper Crafting, Valentines

Hello! Today I have a very special Churro Love card and video to share! It’s a quick video, so I hope you will check it out below or on YouTube:

This is a sweet little new stamp set called “Churrific” and it makes me hungry for churros! Lol. Sadly, I just found out that my Costco is no longer serving churros at the snack bar. So I guess all my churros will be in CARD FORM! (which is better for my diet anyway…ha ha).

I hope you enjoyed this churro card today. Do you love churros like I do?
I’ll be back soon with more cards to share!

Hello! Today I have a Valentine Card to share with a new bear stamp set that I love: You’re the Beary Best!

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

Today I colored up these cute images with Prismacolor colored pencils. Watch my video to see my tips for coloring with colored pencils and a blending stump. I just adore these images.

I hope you enjoyed this sweet project. This is a new part of my collectible BEAR collection! See you soon with another card to share.

Try this Masking Stencil Idea

By KariV on January 27, 2024 in Holidays, Paper Crafting, Valentines

Hello! Today I have a new Masking Stencil idea for you to try! I am creating a Valentine card with adorable stamps and stencils from Miss Ink Stamps.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

I started out with a stencil that had much white space in between the stencil pattern. Then I used a MASKING stencil in a new way: to mask off the first stencil to be able to add ink to the white space! I hope you will watch the video to see what I mean.
