Fruit Stencils with the Hedgehog Hollow

Hello! I’m excited to share the Hedgehog Hollow June Kit with you today! I have a video showing everything that comes in the kit, and then I make TWO cards using the stencils from the kit.

This kit is full of all things fruit and it’s so fun! I’m making tropical fruit cards today, watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

For more details of these cards, check out the Hedgehog Hollow blog!

I hope you enjoyed my tropical fruit cards today! I’ll be back soon with more cards to share.

I believe in you, Sunshine

Hello! Today I have a card using the prettiest Sunshine stencil from Miss Ink Stamps. I’m sharing a technique for using a stencil as a mask to create this sunny scene.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

This sun stencil is so delicate and beautiful…look at those golden rays! For this card, I first inked on the clouds and the cloud swirls. Then I used that cloud stencil as a mask, added the sun rays stencil, and spread on the Gold Glitz Glitter Gel.

It works perfectly! I then added some Stickles to the cloud swirls…this makes it extra sparkly just like a “silver lining.” I thought the sentiment “I believe in you” (from the Lovely Unicorns stamp set) would be perfect for an uplifting encouragement card. I popped this up with foam tape on a blue sentiment strip.

I finished it by adding some little butterflies and a blue polka-dot mat frame.

Rainbow Cards!

Today I’m a part of a video hop celebrating my friends Erica & Maria reaching some YouTube goals! This is a rainbow video hop and today I made 1 rainbow, and 2 cards with it.

Head on over to the video on YouTube to comment to win prizes:

I hope you enjoy these tricks I’m sharing to make 1 rainbow and 2 cards! Today I made slimline cards, but you could certainly use this technique for an A2 size or mini slimline card.

Hello! Today I have MORE easy summer cards to share using Maker Forte products. I love the Seaside Silhouettes and they pair perfectly with the A2 spotlight stencil.

These cards are so EASY and super fun to make. They are also very quick. I love the designs in the background…doesn’t the hammock card with bubbles look so dreamy? I wish I was hanging out in a hammock right now. Lol.

Easy Summer Cards

I love easy summer cards! Today I’m sharing a quick card and video using products from Maker Forte. This set is a large 6×8 set designed by Jess Francisco and I love it!

Watch the quick video below or in HD on YouTube:

This stamp set is FILLED with fun summer images and I have so many fun ideas! This is my first card I made with the set, and it reminds me of a T-Shirt I had many many years ago.

I stamped the “sun” image with 4 colors of Distress Oxide inks, to get a gradient reminiscent of a sunset. Then I stamped the large palm trees in a black ink and heat embossed over it with clear embossing powder.

Next, I stamped the sentiment “You are my sunshine” with a teal ink. I finished it all off with some gems.

The cardstock is English Mustard cardstock from Maker Forte (and it’s a favorite of mine)!
