- Concertina Pop Up Card w/ the April 2020 FOTM Card Kit

  Hi Everyone! Luci here from My Crazy Craft Life with a Concertina Popup Card! The card closed will fit in a 5 1/2 inch square envelope, it’s pretty thick so you can get away with using a 6-inch square envelope.
  
  I really wanted to use what was in the kit and all of the Concertina cards I saw like this were 6 inches square so I figured out all of the measurements so you can use an 8 1/2 X 11-inch piece of cardstock.
  
  Check out the video for all the details HERE!
  
  Everything on the card is from the April 2020 Flavor of the Month Card Kit Banana Split Level!
  
  Be sure to grab your kit if you’re not subscribed to Scrapping for Less!

- 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!

- Single Layer Beach Scene with SFL
  
  Posted at 11:00 am by Luci Manos
  
  Jan 22nd
  
  Hi Everyone! Luci here with a single layer card using the Brand New Release from SFL “Winter Fairies” and “At the Beach Sentiments” from the June 2018 FOTM Kit! How adorable are these sets!
  
  I don’t know about you, but here in the Midwest the weather has been yucky and I’m about ready for a beach day! So I thought I would create my own.
  
  When I saw Crystal’s card using the lights in this set I knew I needed to use them but with a tropical theme!
  
  I created the scene by masking and coloring with Copic Markers and Distress Oxide Inks. I stamped the sentiment with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink and using Copper Embossing Powder heat embossed it. I finished off the card by using Glossy Accents on the lights, drink, flipflops and Spectrum Noir Clear Sparkle Pen on the water!
  
  Check out the process video HERE!
  
  I made an A2 size card or 5 1/2 X 4 1/4 inches, I cut a panel to 5 1/4 X 4 inches for the scene. I made some masks for the images, and I stamped and masked as I went, using Momento Tuxedo Black Ink for stamping the images I was going to color.
  
  I drew in lines for the cabana, horizon, and beach with a pencil before I started ink blending and then colored the images. After I finish coloring and blending I stamped and embossed the sentiment. I added the glossy accents, the Sparkle Pen for the reflection of the sunset on the water. After it dried I adhered the panel to the card base and used a black Zig Marker to outline the wires on the string lights.

- Mad 4 Plaid Thanksgiving Card
  
  Posted at 11:00 am by Luci Manos
  
  Nov 6th
  
  Hi Everyone! Luci here from My Crazy Craft Life with a sweet Thanksgiving card using PhotoPlay Mad 4 Plaid Fall Stamp Set, Darice Sticky Gold Glitter Paper, and Lawn Fawn Knock on Wood Paper Pad.
  
  You can check out my process video HERE!
  
  This is an A2 size card or 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 inches. I used a dark brown card base from my stash. I stamped the leaves on the back of the glitter paper and scanned through my Scan N Cut, then I flipped the glitter paper over so the glitter side was facing up and let the machine cut out the images. I stamped the images of the fox and acorn from the stamp set and colored them with Copic markers (colors in the photo below). I didn’t color the leaf of the acorn because I stamped that on the back of the Glitter paper and cut it too.
  
  Once I finished up the images I used the Lawn Fawn Knock on Wood Paper Pad and cut the back panel in orange to 4 X 5 1.4 inches. The turquoise colored piece was 4 X 3/4 inches. The used dies from a Karen Burniston set to cut the yellow background piece and the light brown scalloped edge piece of pattern paper and layered all the pieces onto the card.
  
  I stamped the sentiment on the top of the top panel of the card, adhered the acorn and used foam tape on the fox and placed it on the card.
  
  That’s it! Easy Peasy!

- Heat Embossing with Picket Fence Studios String of Lights
  
  Posted at 10:00 am by Luci Manos
  
  Oct 2nd
  
  Hi Everyone! Luci here with a few cards using the Picket Fence Studios “String of Lights” stamp set.
  
  I love how simple yet lovely these cards were!
  
  To start I picked out A2 size card bases from my stash, cut down white cardstock panels to 4 X 5 1/4 inches. Then I stamped the images and sentiment together using my Mini Misti and Brutus Monroe embossing ink. I picked red, silver, gold, and green embossing powders and heat embossed them. I adhered the card panels to the card bases. Then I simply added some embellishments for one I used sequins from an old SFL FOTM card kit and the rest I used Nuvo Crystal Nuvo Drops, the colors I used were Autumn Red and Silver Lining. Easy Peasy right!
