    • 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.

    • Florals from Gina K Designs and Papers from Scrapping for Less

      20191202_225758.jpg

      Hi Everyone!  Luci here from My Crazy Craft Life with a few cards using the Gina K Designs “Sweet Friendship” stamp set, Spring Patterns paper pack from Scrapping for Less, some Crystal Nuvo Drops, Stone Nuvo Drops, and a few sequins!

      I colored all of these images with Prismacolor Premier Pencils, I’ve added the photos of the pencil numbers next to each photo!

      Be sure to check out the video HERE!

      20191202_225233
      20191201_220204

      For this first card, I stamped the image on 110lb Neenah Solar White card stock.  I am making an A2 size card I used a stitched oval die to cut out a frame for the card.  I used a powder blue color card base and cut one of the pieces of pattern paper down to 4 1/4 X 5 1/2, so the piece is the size of the card with no borders. I used a stitched oval die to create a frame from the pattern paper.  Then I adhered the floral design to the card base and used foam tape to pop up the frame piece and adhered it while lining it up.  I stamped the sentiment on the same type of paper and cut the thin strip to about 4 inches and fishtailed the ends.  I adhered the sentiment to the card panel toward the bottom leaving some of the frame hole showing on the bottom.  I used Crystal Nuvo Drops and some sequins from my stash to finish off the card.

      20191202_002121

      For the second card, I stamped the image on Strathmore Colored Pencil paper, the card is A2 size and I cut the back panel from pattern paper to 4in X 5 1/4in to leave a border from the dusty pink color card base I used. I used a stitched oval die to cut out the image, used “Worn Lipstick” Distress Oxide Ink to give some color just to the outer edge of the oval.  Then I cut out an oval the next size up from the same colored pencil paper and layered it behind the oval with the image.  I adhered that piece toward the bottom center of the card, stamped a sentiment from the same paper, cut out the strip, fishtailed one end and adhered it to towards the top of the card. I finished off the card by adding some Crystal Nuvo Drops.

      20191201_202817

      For my final card, I stamped the image on Strathmore Colored Pencil paper, the card is A2 size and I cut the back panel from pattern paper to 4in X 5 1/4in to leave a border from the Neenah Solar White card base I used.  I then used strips to crisscross measuring  2in X 4 1/4in and 1 3/4in X 5 1/2in.  The image I cut down to 2 1/2in X 3 3/4in  and adhered it to a rectangle piece measuring 3 1/4 X 4 1/2in.  I stamped the sentiment directly onto the image paper and finished it off with some Nuvo Stone Drops.

    • 4 Fun and Quick Holiday Cards

      Posted at 11:00 am by Luci Manos
      Nov 20th

      20191118_214857

      Hi Everyone! Luci here with four fun and quick cards using Kaisercraft Silver Bells Tags, Sticky Back Glitter Paper from Darice in Silver and Gold, and Carta Bella Paper Pad Santa’s Workshop.

      Be sure to check out the video HERE!

      20191118_215153

      Card 1 is an A2 size card, I cut the gold glitter paper to 4 1/4 X 5 1/5 and a piece of the pattern paper to 3 X 5 1/2 inches. I adhered the glitter paper to the card base and then centered the pattern paper and adhered it. I used glue dots to adhere the tag so the person receiving it could use if they want!

      20191118_215143

      Card 2 is an A2 size card and I cut a piece of pattern paper to 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 inches and adhered it to the card base. I cut a piece of silver glitter paper cut to 4 1/2 X 3 inches. I used my cropadile on the front two ends of the card and glitter paper, then I centered the glitter paper and adhered it to the panel. I added the tag on to the glitter paper and that’s it!

      20191118_215058
      20191118_215110
      Card 3 is an A2 size card and I cut two panels from the pattern paper to about 1 9/16 inch and a piece of the silver glitter paper to 1 1/8 inch. After I adhered all the panels, I added a tag to the inside of the card and that finished that one up.

      20191118_215122

      For my final card I cut a panel from the pattern paper to 4 X 5 1/4 inches to leave a border around the A2 size card. I adhered the tag to a scalloped rectangle that I cut out with a die that was just a little longer than the tags and slightly wider. I added the rectangle piece a little off center on the card.

      That’s it for me today! Be sure to check out Scrapping for Less for all the sales!

    • Cold Hands with Waffle Flower

      Posted at 11:00 am by Luci Manos

      20191107_23211720191111_175710

      Hi Everyone! Luci here from My Crazy Craft Life with a card using the Waffle Flower Cold Hands Stamp Set and Sticky Back Glitter Paper in Silver from Darice.

      Be sure to check out the video HERE!

      20191107_23252020191111_175709

      To create this card I started with an A2 size cardbase or 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 inches. I used Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock. I stamped the images I wanted to use with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with copic markers. I used my Scan N Cut to cut the images out.

      I cut the glitter paper for the front panel to 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 inches and cut out a 3 1/4 inch circle towards the top center of the card and then cut out another circle from white card stock with a 3 1/2 inch die.

      I used a cloud stencil, Tumbled Glass and Faded Jeans Distress Oxide inks to create the background sky on the 3 1/2 inch circle. I left the bottom of the circle white. Then I used one of the tree stamps and stamped a few trees with Lucky Clover Distress Oxide Ink.

      I adhered all of the tree images to the 3 1/2 inch circle panel and popped the mouse images up with some foam dots. I adhered the 3 1/2 inch circle to the top of the card base and then adhered the glitter paper to the card base lining up the circles. I stamped the sentient “Cold Hands” from Hero Arts Ink in Moss on a white strip of card stock. I cut the banner down to 4 1/4 X 3/4 inches and adhered it towards the bottom of the card with some foam tape.

      To finish it off I stamped on the inside of the card the sentiment “Warm Heart”, as well as, the image of the mittens with the string of them creating a heart. I colored in the mittens with copic markers.

    • Mad 4 Plaid Thanksgiving Card

      Posted at 11:00 am by Luci Manos
      Nov 6th

      20191101_205832

      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!

      20191101_205459

      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!
