Bird in a Nest

Hello again! Today I’m using the new December 2019 Hedgehog Hollow Kit to create a cute bird in a nest card. I’m sharing this on the Hedgehog Hollow blog today, too!

This card came together pretty quickly. I started with a card panel of Neenah Solar White 80# paper and stamped the little bird with Copic friendly ink. Then I stamped the “nest” I created with the swirl stamp in two shades of brown ink.

I colored up the bird with copic markers and added some dots with copics and colored pencils. Then I white heat embossed the sentiment.

At this point, it was difficult to read the sentiment because it was white embossing on white paper. So I used make up brushes to brush on some Distress Ink.

I only inked it up around the “nest” and left it softer color toward the top. Then I die cut the cross-stitched rectangle, and cut down the outer rectangle as well so I could add some sparkly paper peeking from the background!

For the final touch, I added some Nuvo Jewel drops under the sentiment. Isn’t this birdie so cute?

Easy Wreath Cards

Hello! Today I’m showing you how easy it is to create a wreath card using small stamps! I made 3 cards to share, choosing stamps from The Hedgehog Hollow November Kit.

These are soooo fun to make (and a little addicting…that’s why I made three! Lol)

I made a quick video to show you just how easy it is when you have a MISTI or other stamp positioner. Watch it below or on YouTube:

These stamps are so cute from this month’s kit, don’t you think?

Haunted House Interactive Card

Hello there! Today I have a bit of a Haunted House issue…uh oh! I am using the interactive die from the Hedgehog Hollow October kit and some cute ghosts from a previous kit to create this haunted house.

Boo! The ghosts are coming out of the chimney!

Oh boy…there are ghosts in that chimney! I have all the details of how I built this card on the Hedgehog Hollow blog today…see it here.

I use the IRON OFF technique for that background spiderweb! First I stamped it with embossing ink and heat embossed clear embossing powder over the spider web. Then I blended on some Distress Oxides over the spider web. Once the ink was dry, I placed the panel on my ironing board, added a piece of plain computer paper over the top, and held the warm iron over it all for a few seconds. The computer paper absorbs the embossing powder and leaves the panel completely FLAT!

You might be asking…why did you want to remove the embossing powder? Well, I wanted to stamp that “BOO” over the top and needed a flat surface to add it. This allowed me to stamp in dark black ink. (I didn’t want a large sentiment strip on this card.)

Here’s what it looks like when you turn the dial…the ghosts pop up!

Isn’t that cool?! To put this card together, I attached the dial and arms with brads, then attached the full card base on the black card panel with foam tape. For a video tutorial of how to do this, check out my earlier video here.
