      Hi Everyone!  Luci here with a few cards using Nuvo Stone Drops, a few stencils, including the Echo Park “Coffee Dot” stencil, stamps set from Echo Park “I Am A Crafter“, Gina K “Sweet Friendship“, a Hello Die from Pink and Main, paper pad from SFL “Spring Patterns”, nesting dies from Sizzix heart and flower sets, Versafine Onyx Black Ink for the sentiments and the Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pen.

      Be sure to check out the video HERE!

       

      For all of these cards, I used the Nuvo Drops over the stencils and let it dry about an hour in a half to two hours.

      This card is a 5 1/2 inch square card base.  I used the largest heart die and cut it out the abstract stencil, then I used the second to the smallest heart for the sentiment that I cut out from white cardstock, I cornered the right edge of the card base. I stamped the sentiment on the small heart. I adhered the heart onto the card base in the center and then popped up the sentiment heart in the middle of the large heart. to finish it up I used some sequins.

      This card I made similar to the first except its A2 size or 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 inch card base in pink and I used a piece of pattern paper that I cut down to 4 X 5 1/4 inches for the back panel.  I cut out the largest flower from a stenciled piece and then the second smallest one for the sentiment in white.  Stamped the sentiment on the smaller flower. Layered it onto the card base and finished it off with a few sequins.

      My final card is A2 sized and I used a black card base. I cut down the stenciled piece to 4 X 5 1/2 inch and adhered it to the card base.  I used a piece I smeared the stone drops on to cut out the hello sentiment from the die and a piece of black card stock for the shadow. I adhered it to the center of the card.  I used some black sequins and I used the sparkle pen all over the sentiment and shadow.

    • Grande-Sized Love from MFT

      Posted at 9:00 am by Kimberly Smith

      Hello and Season’s Greetings to you all! I hope you are having a good December and are busy making memories with friends and loved ones. Today I want to share with you a little card with a grande message. ( I know, I know but I love punny.)Grande-Sized Love from My Favorite Things clear stamp.

      This pure innocence girl from MFTis incredibly versatile. You could use it for a thank you card, birthday card, I love you card and of course she would be adorable on a card containing a gift card especially if that gift card was for a place that served coffee. I kept things pretty simple wanting her to take center stage on the card. Here is the run down of what I did and what I used to do it:

      • stamped the image out in Gina K black amalgam ink
      • colored her in with Copic sketch markers
      • used a Prismacolor pencil to add in hair strands
      • stamped the image out onto patterned paper from Echo Park’s Spring Dots and Stripes paper pad and then fussy cut out her dress
      sflblogpost12122019b

      When paper piecing an item like clothing you want to cut directly on the black line because the lines in your image that you are adding the cut out to are the ones that will show. 

      • adhered the dress down with liquid glue
      • used a stitched rounded rectangle die to cut out image
      • used a travel coffee cup die from my stash to create a travel coffee cup like the one the girl is holding n the stamp
      • stamped the sentiment and then embossed it with WOW clear embossing powder (you can use baby powder or an embossing buddy to keep your embossing powder from sticking where you don’t want it to)
      • add finishing touches to the heart and around the sentiment withNuvo Stone Drops in pink granite
      • also added some sparkle to the polka dots on her dress and the coffee cup with a Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pen in clear
      • cut the striped paper down to 4″ x 5 1/4″ and my white card base to 4 1/4″ x 11 scored it at 5 1/2″ for a top folding card
      • glued it all down except for the travel coffee cup which I popped up withbig circle double sided foam tape

      This card is bright and cheery and a perfect thank you for me to give to a fellow coffee lover who really is always there to pick me up. I really do love the pure innocence collection from My Favorite Things and am so excited to add this little gal to my collection. Thank you for spending some time with me today on the blog and hope you are carving out a little time for yourself to do something crafty.

      Keep on crafting,

      Kim 🙂

    • Coffee Melt Snowman by Your Next Stamp

      Posted at 9:00 am by Stacy Tiedemann
      Nov 10th

      Hi Everyone, this is Renee’ with Delaney Jane Cards and I’m so excited to be on the Scrapping for Less blog today. I am one of two guest designers this month and I cannot wait to share some fun things with everyone.

      I created an adorable snowman Christmas card using Coffee Melt by YNS and Echo Park’s My Favorite Christmas 6×6 pad. You can find both in the Scrapping for Less store.

      I had some trouble with my colorless blender while coloring this image and wasn’t sure I could salvage it so I had to find a solution. I colored the sky and used that same troublesome 0 Copic to add swirls to the color to camouflage my error. 

      Sometimes a simple creative solution can keep your project from getting tossed in the trash. 

      I really loved the color pallet this paper pad offered. It gave me a set of colors to use on this adorable melting snowman. I even got to use my favorite Copic YG17. 

      Your Next Stamp has some of the cutest sets and most include fun sentiments like this one. Life is too short for bad coffee.  It makes me giggle as this snowman melts for his love of the wonderful caffeinated goodness.  I figured the mug was supposed to be a snowman, but I wanted to spread the green color around a bit more and made it green… another opportunity to use YG17. I have no clue why I like that color as much as I do, but I try to incorporate it in all my green combos. 

      Thank you for stopping by & remember to GIVE CARDS GENEROUSLY!

      -Renee

    • Soft Heat Embossed Lilac Snowflakes

      Posted at 8:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Oct 27th

      I just can’t wait for the first snow to fall! Where I live it’s not uncommon to have a dusting or two before Halloween!

      HE Snowflakes


      This card is the result of a happy accident – but I love the look! I sprayed the back of the Echo Park Magical Snowfall Stencil a little too heavily with Pixie Spray and I didn’t wait long enough for the spray to dry before adding it to my cardstock. I pressed Versamark ink over the stencil and when I removed it and added my Lilac Pearl embossing powder the powder actually stuck to the background. I LOVE it! I think it looks like the soft flurries of snow that picks up and blows around in the wind!

      HE Snowflakes 2

      The little snowman is from the Avery Elle Christmas Magic stamp set. I wanted him to match my heat embossed background, so I used some BV Copic Markers to color his hat and scarf. The sentiment is from the Sunny Studio Stamps Bundled Up stamp set. I thought it fit this card perfectly!

      HE Snowflakes 3

      I added all of my die cut elements onto my card and finished it off with some string tied in a bow. Head over to the Scrapping for Less store to find these products and more for your Holiday cards!

    • Bundled Up Circle Card

      Posted at 8:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Oct 13th

      Christmas is in full swing at Scrapping for Less! And it truly will be here before you know it!

      Red Penguin


      I’m a lover of classic Christmas colors! – red, green, gold! Gorgeous! I ink blended some Candied Apple Distress Ink onto a piece of cardstock keeping the ink darker towards the center and lighter towards the outside. I used a slightly darker color of ink – Fired Brick – and stenciled the Echo Park Magical Snowfall Stencil over the ink blending and die cut the panel with a stitched circle die. I thought the background needed something more, so I flicked on some metallic gold watercolor.

      Red Penguin 2

      I super love the Bundled Up stamp set from Sunny Studio Stamps because you can build your own penguin! I stamped the penguin and a bunch of accessories and colored them with classic Christmas colored Copic markers and trimmed them out with my scissors and added them to my die cut circle and stamped a sentiment under the penguin. I wanted to add a little more gold to my card, so I die cut a foiled piece of cardstock with a slightly larger die cut circle and added it to a circle card base. Check out the video above to see how I made that!

      Red Penguin 3

      This card has so much shine! And I love the subtle snowflakes in the background! Thanks for stopping by!

    • Soft Stenciled Snowflakes

      Posted at 8:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Sep 29th

      Hi everyone! I’m a lover of classic Christmas colors – but every now and then I feel the urge to create with soft pastel colors!

      Pink Snowflakes

       


      This card is very easy to create and even to mass produce if you want! I started with a piece of light pink cardstock that I die cut with a stitched rectangle die. I sprayed the back of the Echo Park Magical Snowfall Stencil with some Pixie Spray and and pounced on some white pigment ink over the stencil. I love the look of the soft white on the pastel pink! If you wanted to have crisp white snowflakes you could use Versamark Ink and white embossing powder – but I like the look of the soft snowflakes.

      Pink Snowflakes 2

      I die cut a large snowflake from some gold foiled cardstock to use as my center piece and added some coiled silver thread for added interest. My sentiment is from the Avery Elle Christmas Magic stamp set and I heat embossed it with gold powder to match the snowflake die cut. And that’s it! See what I mean! Super easy! Thanks for joining me!

    • Pumpkin Treat Pouches

      Posted at 10:30 am by Stacy Tiedemann
      Sep 17th

      Happy Fall Ya’all! It’s Stacy from CraftaholicMomma up today on the Scrapping for Less blog with a set of cute treat pouches. These would be great for gift cards, bookmarks or anything you’d like to put inside. They’d make perfect little gifts. Plus they are SUPER easy and fast to make using just one sheet of 6×6 paper.

      First thing to do is take your paper and score it. I’m including a diagram I drew showing the score marks and cut marks.

      Next take your scissors and cut off the two selected bottom portions.

      If you want a fancy border on the top of your pouch go ahead and punch or die cut it now.

      Next use your favorite tape runner or strong tape to add adhesive to the two 1/2″ sections.

      Now close up the long side and bottom. Fold over the back panel and viola! You have a super fast and totally cute treat pouch.

      Just decorate it! I added tags and stickers and leftover scraps to decorate mine. I used these adorable pumpkin paperclips by Doodlebug Designs to attach my tags to the pouches.

      I made a matching bookmark to go with one of the pouches. The book mark measures 5 1/2″ by 2″. Rustic twine adds the perfect touch to the tags and bookmark.

      All three of these pouches and bookmark took me less than 20 minutes to make. You could easily mass produce these for a class of kiddos, teachers or co-workers. I hope you give this super easy tutorial a try. I’d love to see what you make! Use hashtag #stacystreatpouch in your social media and I’ll show you some love!!

      Thanks for visiting,

      Products Used:

      Fiskars Scallop Border Punch

      Score Tape

      Rustic Twine

      Hello, it’s Stacy from CraftaholicMomma today up on the Scrapping for Less blog with a super cute card celebrating “Fall Friends”.

      This little hedgehog frolicking in the sunflower fields is just too cute! The stamp set is from Pink and Main called Fall Friends.

      I colored the images with my Copic Markers and cut them out using my Brother Scan n Cut

      I created the background with hills and clouds stencils and Distress Oxide inks.

      I layered the scene panel on a piece of pattern paper from the Echo Park Celebrate Autumn 6×6 paper pad.

      I know exactly which friend I’m mailing this card to! I hope she loves it!! (I think she will)
