    • The Easy Impossible Card

      Posted at 10:00 am by Luci Manos
      Nov 11th

      Hi Everyone! Luci here and today I made the Impossible Card! I promise it’s not impossible, it’s actually pretty easy.

      Be sure to check out the video on how to make it HERE!

      I used the “Myths and Legends” and “Castles and Dreams” sentiment stamps, and the “Neutrals” paper pad.

    • Cozy Sweater Fall Cards – No Paper Scraps Left

      Posted at 7:00 am by bourboncreekcrafts
      Nov 6th

      Hello! It’s Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts here. Today I’m sharing how I made 2 Fall cards using 2 pieces of patterned paper, some stamps, a die and some cardstock. And, I had no scraps of the patterned paper left! If you know me at all, you know I really hate to leave any scraps behind!

      To see my process and get dimensions for these cards, you can watch my video HERE.

      For my cards I’m using the 6×6 Woodland Critters paper collection from Scrapping for Less, the Sweater Weather stamp set from Paper Sweeties and the Autumn Blessings die from Scrapping for Less.

      I also pulled in some Kraft cardstock for my card bases and some brown cardstock from my stash.

      I cut my Kraft cardstock down into 2 pieces that were 5.5×4.25 inches (your standard A2 size card) but then I trimmed a half an inch off the right side of the top card flap. This allows just a little peek into the inside of the card and adds a dimensional look to the card front without any actual dimension.

      For my first card I used one of the stamps from the Sweater Weather stamp set and the Autumn Blessings die.

      For the second card I used the sweater image and the cozy and sweater weather sentiments from the Sweater Weather stamp set.

      These were fun, quick cards and I love the little sweater weather stamp set!

      Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed my Fall sweater weather cards!

    • 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!

      20200304_003533

       

      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.

    • 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!

      20200210_221041

      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

      20200120_173719

      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!

      20200120_174401

      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.
