Playing with Fire (Stencil)

By KariV on May 24, 2025 in Paper Crafting

Hello, today I am playing with a new Fire Stencil from Miss Ink Stamps…this is such a cool one because you can add different layers and sized of fire AND you can even mask off the fire to create a different background.

Watch the video here or on YouTube:

I love the new sets from Miss Ink Stamps…this one is particularly funny with sentiments that make me giggle!

Today I thought I would make a “sort” of encouragement card with the sentiment: It’s trash can, not trash can’t!

Just how cute are those raccoons?! I used the Perspective floor stencil for the cobblestones to ground the images, and the new Flames stencil for the background. I think this flames stencil would also be cool for a car or a guitar scene!

I cut both the YES alpha and frames from the EIEIO Frame Die set…it’s so awesome to get both frame layers and an alphabet in the same die set. I get so much use out of Miss Ink Stamps’ frame dies!

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!

Imagine A Dragon

By KariV on May 14, 2025 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a new video with two cards featuring the new Imagine A Dragon set from Miss Ink Stamps.

Watch the video below or on YouTube:

I just love this new set…look at those dragons! I colored them up with bright colors with Copic markers.

The background is made by inking Oxide inks through the new Succulent Swirls stencil. I used a couple colors for each background. On the first card, I added some gold Lunar paste with another stencil for a bit of shine!

On the second card, I created a more subtle background…no lunar paste, but added a few sparkling clear sequins.

Hope you enjoyed these projects! I’ll be back with more cards to share soon!

EZ Wonder Die and Lots of Cards!

By KariV on May 13, 2025 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’m sharing the EZ Wonder Die 1 and making lots of cards in my newest video! If you haven’t seen these EZ Wonder dies, you’re going to want to check this out to see how cool they are.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

I’m also featuring the new Lemon Gnomes PET tape…which is sooooo cool, too! I loved putting these cards together.

For these cards, I added a lemon die cut (that I ink blended) for a bit of extra decor. The sentiment labels are foiled stickers with the perfect sentiments for these cards!

I hope you will watch the video to see how these dies work (they are amazing!) Also….be on the look out for more EZ Wonder Dies videos from me featuring the SECOND die and add-on (and possibly more!) Wink!

Thanks for stopping by,
