Sweater Weather

By on November 8, 2019 in Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Well, it was almost sweater weather here in Arizona, and then….it warmed right up again! Lol. But I was inspired to make a few cards when I was still wearing a sweater! So I’m going to share them with you today.

This first one features a sweater embossing folder that I love! I first inked up the background with my favorite domed ink blending tools. After it was dry, I ran it through the embossing folder and then splattered on some white paint for a bit of a snowflake effect.

Glitter embossing on the sentiment

I love a silver glitter snowflake, so I added some of those, too! I stamped the sentiment onto the tag, added some yarn and that’s the card. Does it look cold to you…as in cold weather?

I also used some glitter embossing powder on the sentiment (you can never have too much glitter, right?!) I have a video on this card, watch it below or on YouTube:

I couldn’t resist making another card with this fun sentiment. And, after all I had this cute sweater die that was begging to be on a card!

I had some plaid backgrounds I inked up earlier, and this cute sweater I put together earlier, too! So all I had to do was add the white embossed sentiment and this card was so quick!

I stacked 3 die cut sweaters on top of each other to get this raised sweater look. I think some Nuvo drops would be fun on that Christmas tree!

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 love this Fall Sampler set!

I hope you enjoyed this project. If you have been following me for a while, you might have noticed that I’ve used this Fall Sampler set on many other projects (I’m really getting some good use out of it!!) I love a set that gives so much inspiration! Check out my other posts with this set here and here!

Snowflake Cover Dies

By on November 6, 2019 in Christmas, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello there! Today I am showcasing the new Altenew Snowflake Cover Dies. I love these dies on their own, but when you layer them together: WOW! These make it easy to make a professional looking card!

This sentiment is a new holiday set from Scrapbook.com and I love all the fonts and sentiments for this time of year.

I layered up those cover dies (there are two of them and they make this beautiful snowflake design when layered!) and then adhered them to red glitter card. I added the sentiment that I stamped in Grass Skirt green ink and then attached some holly bundles.

I have a VERY quick video to show you how these cover dies work and how fast this card comes together. Watch it below or on YouTube:

These are some new favorites and I will have more ideas and examples for you coming up soon!

You Know You’re Getting Old…When Santa Looks Attractive

By on November 4, 2019 in Christmas, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I could not stop giggling while making this card. This sentiment is so, so funny…and I couldn’t wait to show you a couple of card options for it.

First, I have colored up Santa with Copics and added the sentiment below him. Then I die cut the panel with the Cross-Stitched Stackables and adhered it to fun foam. I added the entire panel to some Echo Park holly paper (that I love!)

The best sentiment!

Isn’t he cute? Would you even go as far to say that Santa is looking attractive?! Lol.

I’ve got a quick video tutorial, watch it below or on YouTube:

If you are a Copic Colorer, I have the Copic Color Chart for you here. Roll your cursor over the image below to PIN IT for later.

If you are NOT a Copic Colorer, I have one more card idea to share below! Keep on scrolling.

Now, if you want to use this sentiment on a quick card (with no Copic Coloring) I’ve got you covered! Try using a stencil to make some green lines, then use these Bella-Pops to make a fast and cute card.

I hope this post made you smile. Thanks for stopping by. I’m really looking forward to the holidays this year and sending out a few of these cards to my *older* friends. Lol.

Snowman Loses His Hat

By on October 25, 2019 in Christmas, Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a new card to share with this cute Snowman image. I am using the October 2019 Hedgehog Hollow Kit in a new way…by altering the Interactive Die Cut to create a whole new look!

Watch as the wind takes his hat away!

This is a cute kit, and I have a video showing you just how I made it and how I changed up the look of that interactive die. Watch it below or on YouTube:

I love that you can change up this kit and die to make it what you want. I hope this inspired you to look at your dies in a whole new way!

Check out the other cards I’ve made using this same die: here and here.

Quick Halloween Cards

By on October 15, 2019 in Halloween, Paper Crafting

Hello! Sometimes I need a quick card, so today I’m showing you some easy Halloween cards with only minimal supplies! I’m using the same Fall Sampler stamp set to make two very different Halloween Cards.

Here’s the first one:

Eat Drink and Be Scary

I love this stamp set, there are so many sentiments perfect for Fall, Thanksgiving, Halloween, AND Winter. I love a stamp set with lots of uses…it is great on the budget, too! 🙂

Best Witches!

Here’s a video to show you the process and how quick it is, watch it below or on YouTube:

These cards are so fun, and there’s no coloring involved (which is sometimes a plus when you are in a hurry)!

So what do you think? Are you going to give this technique a try? Thanks so much for stopping by!
