Alice and the Caterpillar

Hello! Today I have a card that has been in my head for a while, and I finally made some time to create it. I paired the Cloud Heart stencil with the Smoking Caterpillar stamp set for a fun slimline card!

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

In my video I share how this card came together, and a bit of my Copic coloring process (which has been requested!)

I also share how to add some fun texture and dimension to this card for so much interest.

I always love creating with the Alice sets from Miss Ink Stamps, and this Caterpillar set is a new one in my collection! So I was so happy to color him up.

Isn’t that fun to have the smoke in the shape of heart clouds?!

I hope you enjoyed this project today! I really had fun making it, and I can’t wait to make my next Alice card. See you next time!

The Happiest Gingerbread Man

Hello! Today I have the cutest, happiest Gingerbread Man card to share with you! I am using a new stamp set from Maker Forte for this one, and it is one that is so versatile. You can make cute cards (like this one) or even more elegant cards depending on the images you choose. I just love sets like that.

I have a video for you on how this card came together, watch it below or in HD on YouTube:

This card was such a delight to make, I might have been smiling the entire time!

I used the whipped cream from the set as my background, stamped in PINK! I think this could be peppermint whipped cream. YUM!

I also stamped some mini marshmallows in the background and some silver heat embossed snowflakes.

For the focal point, I stamped the mug with one of the sentiments (of course I had to choose “Hot Cocoa!”) Then I stamped that happy gingerbread man. I colored this up with Copic markers and popped it up with foam tape on the whipped cream panel.

Isn’t he so happy?!

Masking Stencils to create a Wavy Background

Hello! Today I have some Wavy Background stencils to share, and I create a watery scene. I love the new stencils, and I paired them with a sweet hippopotamus from Miss Ink Stamps.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

To create the “splashes” I used the Fancy Shells stencil with embossing powder and glitter. I love the texture and the shine this adds!

Dragonfly & Hummingbird

Hello! Today I have the new July Hedgehog Hollow kit to share along with 2 cards. I loved the large stencils included in the kit: one is a dragonfly and one is a Hummingbird. I paired them with the wildflower background stamp for some beautiful cards.

I created a process video for you, watch it below or in HD on YouTube:

I used the foilable ephemera in the kit on both of these cards. I love this concept because they include both the positive and negative ephemera to use up all your foil! This is difficult to explain, so watch the video to find out how to really use this!
