Magnetic Alice Bookmarks

By KariV on March 26, 2025 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have some Magnetic Alice Bookmarks to share and a video showing how to make them!

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

The SWAK Heart Postage dies are so versatile…I’ve used them to create cards, shakers, and now magnetic bookmarks! I just had to use them with the Alice Collection from Miss Ink Stamps (to go with my Alice book of course!)

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 hope you love them as much as I do! Thanks for stopping by!

Big Bug Hugs!

By KariV on March 20, 2025 in Paper Crafting

Hello, today I have a Bug Hugs card that’s as cute as a bug! I love to create cards with Whimsy Stamps, however, it’s rare I share a video. TODAY I have a video to share creating this Bug Hugs card! I also have a bonus simple card at the end *Wink!*

Watch it below or in HD on YouTube:

Aren’t these bugs so cute?! Their expressions really make me smile.

I used the BIG Hugs sentiment die, but did a little slick switcharoo and made it say BUG Hugs instead!

Here’s the bonus card using the same supplies, in a different way:

I hope you enjoyed these Bug Hugs today! Thanks for stopping by!

Make a Full Shaker Owl Card

By KariV on February 26, 2025 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’m sharing how to make a full shaker owl card with the amazing die set called Postage, Seal and Shaker Collection die set from Miss Ink Stamps.

I love that there are SO many things you can do with this set! Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

I hope you’ll watch the video for some tips on making a successful shaker panel. I love making my own shaker panels because using the acetate I share in my list, I feel like I can make my panel flatter and easy to attach to my card base, easy to mail, and easy to shake! Today I am using this full shaker panel with the Owls stamps set.

I hope you love a good full-shaker panel as much as I do! Thanks for stopping by!

Alice Shaker Card

By KariV on February 22, 2025 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have an Alice Shaker Card and video to share! Today I used the Nested Keyhole die set and Key to My Heart die set from Miss Ink Stamps.

Watch the video below or on YouTube:

You might know that I love to make Alice cards, and when I get a chance to make an Alice card AND a shaker card together…well that’s just awesome!

I also brought in two favorite stencils (and I have many favorite Miss Ink Stencils that work so well with Alice cards!): Vintage Keyholes, and Rabbit Hole stencil. Can you see that subtle design in the very back of the shaker panel?

I used different shades of blue glitter paper along with some silver metallic cardstock to cut out the heart keys and heart lockets. Such a cute die set!
