Rainbow Clover Cards (and ink comparison)

By on March 17, 2023 in Holidays, Paper Crafting, St. Patrick's Day

Hello! Today I have three Rainbow Clover cards to share! It’s appropriate for this St. Patrick’s Day, right? I LOVE these sets today from Colorado Craft Company.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

I made three different cards with three different ink companies: PinkFresh Studios, Catherine Pooler and Maker Forte. I chose some nice, light colors to create the rainbows.

Card 1: Pinkfresh Studio Inks

I made all these cards at the same time, stamping the first arc of the rainbow on three different panels (using a different ink company on each panel). Here is the Pinkfresh Studio Ink rainbow:

2. Catherine Pooler Inks

3. Maker Forte Inks

Which one is YOUR favorite?

Sending a Little Luck
By  on March 11, 2023  in Holidays, Paper Crafting, St. Patrick's Day   

	

	    

Hello! Today I’m sending you a little luck with this green rainbow card! I love making St. Patricks Day cards with green and a touch of gold. Today I’m using the Rainbow Builder Stencil from Miss Ink Stamps.





Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:













I love the look of green with gold! Here I used some Mirror Cardstock to cut out the word “Luck.”






		
		
			
			
		
	





I used the Rainbow Builder stencil for this, and instead of adding the included heart, I changed it for a clover from the Pick A Card stencil!






		
		
			
			
		
	





For the second card, I used some Lunar Paste for the touch of gold.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Shamrock Stencil
By  on March 16, 2021  in Holidays, St. Patrick's Day   

	

	    

Hello! Today I have a fun Shamrock Stencil to share, along with a bunch of cards using it. I’m creating with foil, glitter, and ink blending (oh my)! Not to mention, I share the fastest, easiest watercolor technique. 





It’s all in the video below, or watch it in HD on YouTube:













I loved creating with this stencil. Lately, I’ve just been making so many cards with the same supplies. If you’ve been watching my videos, you might have noticed that trend: lots of cards in every video! But I love creating cards, and trying to make many ideas with one set of tools.






		
		
			
			
		
	






		
		
			
			
		
	





I think this glittered background is my favorite of the bunch…I love glittery, shiny cards. 🙂






		
		
			
			
		
	





But this one is a close second! I love the look of Kaleidoscope Powder on a dark background. Look how shiny and shimmery they are! This one uses two colors: Neptune and Limewired. I show you how to use it in my video.






		
		
			
			
		
	





Of course, I love an ink blended background and this Perfect Blend paper makes it SO easy!






		
		
			
			
		
	





A little foiled sentiment is always welcome, too! Or even a foiled background, like in the next two cards:






		
		
			
			
		
	






		
		
			
			
		
	





How cute is that little mouse? All these images are watercolored with Zigs, and I share how easy it is in my video, too.

I hope you enjoyed these bright, rainbow, glittery, and inked cards today! Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Leprechaun Gnome

Hi again, it’s time for some lucky cards….and today I have a gnome that I’ve turned into a leprechaun! I love this little gnome and I think he works perfectly on this card.





I have a video showing you all the details, including how to make a rainbow with just three colors. Watch it below or in HD on YouTube:













Isn’t he just so cute as a leprechaun?!






		
		
			
			
		
	






		
		
			
			
		
	





I used some of the Dazzle Dust from Miss Ink stamps and look how it changes colors! It’s awesome how it changes from blue to green! I also added plenty of other sparkle here, of course.
