Lose Yourself in a Book

By on January 9, 2021 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Do you love to read…or create a book list for yourself for the year? I love to read, but have not read much lately. But today I’m sharing the newest January Hedgehog Hollow Kit that is filled with great book images and sentiments.

Watch the unboxing below and see the card I made; or watch it in HD on YouTube:

I chose only 5 colored pencils for this card, and other than the card kit I have minimal supplies. I love a card that needs minimal supplies sometimes. These images are so beautiful that they can stand on their own!

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! 








		
		
			
			
		
	





And now, I’m going to go lose myself in a book! Happy New Year!

Hello, today I have a card dedicated to my Dad, who is currently in ICU on a ventilator fighting for his life. I am sorry that I have few words today, but I do have a video to share with this angel card featuring stamps from Miss Ink Stamps.





Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:













I love this sweet stamp set. I hope you love the card I created with it.

SUNSHINE-first-rule-queen-card-with-supplies
First Rule of 2021
By  on December 26, 2020  in Paper Crafting   

	

	    

Hello! I’m back with a Wonderland card where the Queen of Hearts has given her first RULE! (Lol) Apparently this rule applies to us and also to those in Wonderland.






		
		
			
			
		
	





I chose some really bright colors for this palette! But I do love a bright colored card sometimes. Check out the video below or in HD on YouTube:













I love how she’s pointing at Alice to make this statement! I colored up those mushrooms from the Pumpkin Spice Gnomes set and mirror imaged one of the large mushrooms. I wanted them to sort of “frame” the sentiment.






		
		
			
			
		
	





And see that keyhole in the background?! That’s from the “Knock Knock” stencil. This set is so cool because they include the negative pieces with the stencils so you can do a lot of neat techniques!






		
		
			
			
		
	





I added quite of bit of extra bling and detail to this card with a glitter pen, Nuvo drops, and embellishments. I don’t think you can ever have too much “extra.” Lol…at least on a card!

I hope you enjoyed this fun project today! Thanks for stopping by, and don’t forget about the RULE for 2021!!

SUNSHINE-critters-with-supplies-crooked
Critters in the Woods
By  on December 24, 2020  in Christmas, Holidays, Paper Crafting   

	

	    

Hello! Today I have a card and video to share using the critters from the Hedgehog Hollow December Kit. I love these critters and so today I’m featuring FOUR of them as well as some fun techniques. I’m sharing ink smooshing, glitter, and gel techniques in todays card!






		
		
			
			
		
	





For the tutorial, watch my video below or in HD on YouTube:













To begin, I put four colors of Distress ink on my craft mat and spritzed it with water. Then I “smooshed” the bristol cardstock into the ink. I did this several times, drying the card with my heat tool in between each time.





Once I got it to a pretty stage, I allowed it to dry completely and then added some Metallix gel in Pearl White through the tree stencil. This gives a fun pearly shine.






		
		
			
			
		
	





I colored up the critters very simply and used some of the glitter in the box to add to their scarves and clothing. To do this, I simply added some liquid glue to the spots I wanted and sprinkled on the glitter. I allowed it to dry for a time before I shook off the excess glitter.






		
		
			
			
		
	





I cut out one of the toner sentiments from the kit, and added some NEW foil in the color Glass Slipper. I love this color! I ran it thru the Minc machine on the setting of 3.





Once the gel was dry, I added some green to the leaves using a Copic marker. Then I attached all the critters and sentiment to the card with foam squares.

SUNSHINE-santa's-sleigh-close-up
Santa Claus is coming to Town
By  on December 23, 2020  in Christmas, Holidays, Paper Crafting   

	

	    

Hello! It’s THE week…the week that Santa Claus is coming to town! So today I have a special Santa Sleigh card, using TWO stencils that fit together perfectly! These are from Maker Forte and they are a dream to work with.






		
		
			
			
		
	





I started with Perfect Blend paper because it’s so smooth and makes it SO easy to ink blend. I added some Kaleidoscope powders in the new colors Yellowstone & Asteroid. These look so awesome and dreamy!





Check out the short video below, or in HD on YouTube to see how this all comes together:













Just look how that powder shines on this card:
