Make It Jolly

By on November 16, 2019 in Christmas, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have another beautiful holiday card to share with a favorite sentiment of mine this season.

Make It Jolly. So Jolly!

This card came together so quickly with the use of some glittery foil striped paper I found in my stash! Love the extra sparkle.

I first die cut the large HOLLY with bold alpha dies and inked them up with green Distress Ink. Then I popped those up on fun foam and added them to the foiled striped paper.

I used the same green ink to make a paper strip and stamped on the sentiment “Make it Jolly. So Jolly!” with embossing ink, then white heat embossed it.

To finish it all off, I added some holly die cuts and some Green Nuvo drops. You might be wondering why I didn’t add red Nuvo drops…well, the red that I had didn’t match the red foiled paper (it was too pink). So green it is!

I added it all to a pre-scored card base (these are a dream for making cards so easily!) and that’s it!

The Love of a Pet

By on November 9, 2019 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a sweet pet sympathy card with an even sweeter sentiment. “The Love of a Pet is one of the Greatest Gifts…”

I just had to use my Peek-A-Boo-Pets for this one. Love these critters!

Greatest Gift

I first colored up those cute pets with Copic Markers and die cut them out. Then I die cut the rainbow paper from Lawn Fawn with a stitched square die to resemble a gift. I stamped the sentiment on the die cut square, then I adhered it to fun foam and put it back into the card panel it was cut from.

I glued on the pets behind the square and glued their paws to the top of the gift. Then I added a die cut bow. Aren’t they cute?! This is sure to bring a smile to any pet lover.

Sweater Weather

By on November 8, 2019 in Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Well, it was almost sweater weather here in Arizona, and then….it warmed right up again! Lol. But I was inspired to make a few cards when I was still wearing a sweater! So I’m going to share them with you today.

This first one features a sweater embossing folder that I love! I first inked up the background with my favorite domed ink blending tools. After it was dry, I ran it through the embossing folder and then splattered on some white paint for a bit of a snowflake effect.

Glitter embossing on the sentiment

I love a silver glitter snowflake, so I added some of those, too! I stamped the sentiment onto the tag, added some yarn and that’s the card. Does it look cold to you…as in cold weather?

I also used some glitter embossing powder on the sentiment (you can never have too much glitter, right?!) I have a video on this card, watch it below or on YouTube:

I couldn’t resist making another card with this fun sentiment. And, after all I had this cute sweater die that was begging to be on a card!

I had some plaid backgrounds I inked up earlier, and this cute sweater I put together earlier, too! So all I had to do was add the white embossed sentiment and this card was so quick!

I stacked 3 die cut sweaters on top of each other to get this raised sweater look. I think some Nuvo drops would be fun on that Christmas tree!

All the Dogs Will Come Running

By on November 7, 2019 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a sweet dog sympathy card to share. I’ve recently been thinking of my own little puppy who passed away just a couple years ago (I always get sentimental around Christmas time…he just loved the Christmas tree and the tree skirt made of “snow’!)

This sentiment set has me all teary-eyed and so I made a bright and happy card to counteract the sadness.

Can you just see it now? All the dogs we’ve ever loved!! Yes! I will love that day.

To make this card, I colored up a trio of Corgis with Copic Markers. I created a rainbow cloudy sky with a stencil and my favorite domed blending tools.

Then I stamped the sentiment, colored in the rainbow with Copics, and added my favorite Stardust Stickles to that cloud.

I added two layers of grass in varying green colors. Then I popped up the Corgis with foam tape! Aren’t they so cute?!

For some fun I die cut using Wonky Stitched Borders around the entire card. That’s what adds the stitching lines around the border.

Snowflake Cover Dies

By on November 6, 2019 in Christmas, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello there! Today I am showcasing the new Altenew Snowflake Cover Dies. I love these dies on their own, but when you layer them together: WOW! These make it easy to make a professional looking card!

This sentiment is a new holiday set from Scrapbook.com and I love all the fonts and sentiments for this time of year.

I layered up those cover dies (there are two of them and they make this beautiful snowflake design when layered!) and then adhered them to red glitter card. I added the sentiment that I stamped in Grass Skirt green ink and then attached some holly bundles.

I have a VERY quick video to show you how these cover dies work and how fast this card comes together. Watch it below or on YouTube:

These are some new favorites and I will have more ideas and examples for you coming up soon!
