  Revisiting January 2019 FOTM Card Kit

  Posted at 11:00 am by Luci Manos

  Mar 7th

  Hi Everyone!  Luci here from My Crazy Craft Life with a card from the January 2019 Flavor of the Month Card Kit! This was a fun coffee-themed kit and I love this Newton’s Donut stamp that was part of Collection Two and the papers and ephemera were SFL Coffee Time from Collection One.

  Check out the video HERE!

  

   

  This is an A2 sized or 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 inches.  I cut a back panel to 4 X 5 1/4 inches, a strip that was 1/2 X 5 1/4 inches, and oval from a Spellbinders nesting set.

  I stamped the Newton image with Momento Oynx Black Ink and colored it with Copic markers. I layered the card together and picked a few of the ephemera pieces.  I popped up the oval with some fun foam and I popped up the two coffee mugs with for foam tape. I finished off the card with a few sequins from Collection One.

  

  Mini Marci Coffee

  Spring Scenes and Ink Blending

  Posted at 11:00 am by Luci Manos

  Feb 19th

  Hi Everyone!  Luci here with this adorable card using the Sunny Studios “Puppy Dog Kisses“, “Spring Scenes” and the SFL “Puppy Hugs and Kisses” paper pad!

  Be sure to check out the video HERE!

  

  This is an A2 size card or 5 1/2 X 4 1/4 inches. I stamped and the puppy images with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on some of the pattern paper and fussy cut them out. I popped them up with some foam tape.

  I cut a panel of 110lb Neenah white cardstock to 5 1/2 X 4 inches, stamped and masked the scene stamps with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink I used Distress Oxide Inks to blend the sky (Tumbled Glass) and road (Black Soot & Iced Spruce), and I used a cloud stencil for the sky. I colored the grass area, tree, and bench with Copic markers and I stamped the grass sections from the stamp set with Lucky Clover Distress Oxide Ink.  I cut the panel down to 5 1/4 X 3 3/4 inches.

  I cut a piece of the pattern paper to 5 3/8 X 4 1/8 inches for the back panel.

  If you want to make scene cards but are not sure about drawing your own the “Spring Scenes” stamp set is perfect. There are so many options with this one set for perfect scenes every time.

  I stamped the sentiment with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink,  on a piece of white cardstock.  I used my Misti to position the stamps to fit. By using a stamping platform I was able to get the sentiment positioned and stamped.  Then I cut it down to 1/2 inch wide and about 3 inches long, to finish it off I popped it up with foam tape and fishtailed the one end.

  I used a black gel pen for the one puppy’s nose and eyes, and then cut out the bow from pattern paper after I stamped just that small section!

  Spring Scenes and Puppy Dog Kisses

  Posted at 11:00 am by Luci Manos

  Feb 12th

  Hi Everyone!  Luci here with this adorable card using the Sunny Studios “Puppy Dog Kisses“, “Spring Scenes” “Ric Rac Snippet Dies” and the SFL “Puppy Hugs and Kisses” paper pad!

  Be sure to check out the video HERE!

  

  I stamped and the puppy images with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copic Markers I used my Scan N Cut to cut the puppy images out.

  I cut a panel of 110lb Neenah white cardstock to 5 1/2 X 4 inches, stamped and masked the scene stamps with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored the scene with Copic markers.  I was not happy with the coloring at all and ended up cutting the panel down to 5 1/2 X about 3 inches.

  If you want to make scene cards but are not sure about drawing your own the “Spring Scenes” stamp set is perfect. There are so many options with this one set for perfect scenes every time.

  I used the dies to cut out a border on the top and bottom of a 5 1/2 X 4-inch panel on the 5 1/2 inch side. I ended up making the panel 5 1/2 by about 3 3/4 inches.

  I stamped the sentiment with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink,  on a circle I cut out of white cardstock.  I used my Misti to position the stamps to fit.  The “& puppy dog kisses” is all one piece and I thought it would be cute to have the sentiment follow the curve of the circle instead of cutting it down.  By using a stamping platform I was able to get the entire sentiment positioned and stamp it all at one time.

  I used a black gel pen for the one puppy’s nose, used a white gel pen for their eyes, and added just a little Glossy Accents to the puppy’s bow and nose!
