Little Deer

By KariV on November 4, 2022 in Christmas, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello, today I am up at the Maker Forte blog HERE with some sweet little reindeer cards!

If you want more details, be sure to visit their blog. But I will share the video and some photos here!

How cute are these? There’s absolutely NO fussy cutting or masking involved! I think that’s an absolute plus when you’re working with small images like these.

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 these tricks (like turning the word YOU into the word JOY!) Thanks for stopping by today!

Light Up your Card

By KariV on October 22, 2022 in Halloween, Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a Light up Jack-O-Lantern Card video to share. This is an easy way to create a Jack-o-Lantern (easier than carving it!) that lights up. I couldn’t love this interactive card any more than I already do. I hope you enjoy!

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

When I told my husband I wanted to color this pumpkin house PURPLE, he was skeptical. But I had a vision in my head and to make it come to life was such fun! I used some darker shades of Copic markers in purple and I just love the effect.

I used some EZ Lights again and they are so easy and fun! I think the coloring on this card took LONGER than making it light up. LOL. I share just how to do this in my video.

So now here’s the question: will you make a Jack-o-Lantern card? Thanks for stopping by today!

Bats & Spiders!

By KariV on October 9, 2022 in Halloween, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’m so excited to share a new video with some interesting backgrounds for Bats & Spiders. I’m using some new stamps & dies from Heffy Doodle…and this one called Let’s Hang Out is a favorite.

Watch the video below or on YouTube:

Aren’t these bats and spiders the cutest? I love them so much…better than real ones! lol.

I started out with a couple backgrounds that are so fun for these critters, and then I share how to put these cards together in the video.

I hope you enjoyed these projects today! Thanks for stopping by!

The Magical Mirror

By KariV on October 8, 2022 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a magical mirror card to share! This is a fun one and I’m using the new Magical Collection from Miss Ink Stamps.

I have a video sharing all details, watch it below or in HD on YouTube:

I used the new Magical Stars stencil for the background, and inked it up in a rainbow of colors. Then I offset the stencil to add some gold glitter stars in between that rainbow of stars!

I love that this Heart’s Desire stamp set has coordinating dies. The dies allowed me to cut out the center of the mirror and replace it with MIRROR CARDSTOCK! See my video for how I colored the mirror to look like wood-grain.
