You’re Still Hot: Quick Birthday Card

Hello! I have a fun birthday card to share today with a new stamp set called “Perfect Match.” This set is a smaller set and is filled with fun sentiments. I especially love the one that says “You’re Still hot, it just comes in flashes now.”

Ha ha ha! That’s the one that I ended up using on my card today. Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

I’m sharing some fun resources and TIPS for creating quick birthday cards. For example, if you are in a hurry for a card, try using patterned paper instead of creating your own background.

Also, use larger sentiments or alpha dies to fill up the card.

Can you see the glitter I added to the matches and flames? I love my Stardust Stickles!

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!

A Glittery Gingerbread Village

Hello! I have a new video for you today with an alternative way to color up a Gingerbread House card! I think glitter screams Christmas, so it’s perfect for this card.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

These are biodegradable glitters from Maker Forte, so you can feel great using them! Unless you are not a glitter fan…LOL! Then, maybe you might stick to Stickles. 😉

I completely enjoyed making this card, and I can’t wait to try this gingerbread set next using some white embossing powder!

Pet Sympathy Rainbow Bridge

Hello, today I have a sad post to write. I am sad to create this card today, but grateful for my very special furry friend. My dog, Snickers, has crossed the rainbow bridge. He lived a very long life…he was 17 1/2 years old! But his body was done, and he left us on Tuesday evening.

I created this card before he died, but I didn’t do the voiceover for the video for 2 days afterwards. I think I held it together enough to get the video done, luckily it’s a short video!

The most difficult part of loving a pet is saying goodbye. I agree. It was so hard for me to lose my sweet Snickers. He would spend HOURS with me in the craft studio and since he’s been gone, I haven’t created anything new.

I do believe it will get easier. And there will be a time when I wake up not expecting him to be there. But today, I am still looking for him, and waiting to hear that jingle walking behind me…

I love adding foil to a stenciled card. I show you just how I did it in the video above. And while this is a simple card, it holds quite a lot of meaning.
