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

I love this Snail image from the Snail Mail stamp set. Super cute! Today I colored it up in shades of pink and red for my Valentine card.

The love you sentiment features my FAVORITE alphabet die set! I used the placement stencil to line up the sentiment on my card.

I hope you enjoyed! See you soon with more cards and more techniques to share!

Happy Sparkly New Year

By KariV on January 14, 2024 in Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! It’s Kari and today I have a Happy Sparkly New Year shaker card and video to share.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

See how sparkly that Cherry Pie Sparkle Mix is?! So pretty for this New Years sparkle card.

I chose a few of the dog stamp sets available at Heffy Doodle to make this party shaker card come to life!

A Lot of Happy stencil for the background inking is perfect for this card. It’s going to be a very HAPPY new year!

I hope you enjoyed this card share today. I wish you a very Sparkly and very Happy New Year!

Foiling with White Foil

By KariV on January 13, 2024 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a set of cards and a video Foiling with White Foil. This is a fun technique and I’m using the cutest penguins from Miss Ink Stamps.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

For this first card I used DecoFoil Gel Duo through the Frosty Flakes stencil from Miss Ink Stamps. I allowed it to completely dry before foiling it with WHITE foil. Then I inked on some color….the foil resists the ink!

The next card I used some rainbow foil, and since I had a beautiful negative piece of rainbow foil that I was able to use on some toner paper. Then I used some white foil with the Double Foil Technique to make the background white again. This is such a fun technique and so easy…Watch the video to see all the details!
