    • May 2020 FOTM ~ Weather Together Collection ~ Faux Shaker Card

      Posted at 9:00 am by Crystal O. Minkler

      Hello there crafty friend! Crystal here from Tawny Owl Paperie with some more inspiration using the sweet Weather Together Collection of the May 2020 Let’s Encourage One Another card kit! I have created three more cards to share with you today and even have a video of the third card!
      My first card features the sunburst rainbow paper for my background layer that is trimmed down to 3-7/8 x 5-1/8″ and mat on a piece of Blu Raspberry card stock measuring 4 x 5-1/4″. I die cut a stitched circle from white card stock and then masked off the edge with some scrap paper. I then stamped the rainbow from the Weather the Storm stamp set with Memento Tuxedo black ink and colored it with Copic markers. I then die cut another slightly bigger circle from the Blu Raspberry card stock and mat the rainbow circle.
      I stamped the sentiment on a scrap of white card stock, trimmed it and mat it with the same Blu Raspberry card stock. I popped up the circle rainbow and sentiment with foam squares. A simple and cute card!
      I still had the rainbow stamp on my Stamp Platform and had adhered these pretty patterned papers together so… I got to thinking that this would be a cute idea for a second card. What do you think? It’s another simple design. I wrapped the ribbon around the card front and secured it with Tear & Tape from Stampin’ Up. Here’s a similar tape that’s available in the SFL Shop… Scor-Tape. I then tied a knot with the little piece of ribbon left over and trimmed the edges. I used a glue dot to adhere it to the card… a little cheat for those days you don’t want to fuss with trying to tie a bow. I popped up the rainbow panel that I had mat with the Blu Raspberry card stock with foam squares.
      I used the same Copic markers for my first two cards. Here’s a list:
      Red ~ R000, R14
      Orange ~ YR0000, YR16
      Yellow ~ Y000, Y13
      Green ~ G000, G07
      Blue ~ B000, B02
      Purple ~ V0000, V06
      And here is my third card… a Faux Shaker card.
      A close up photo of the third card. I created a video for this card… you can check it out down below!

      My trio of Weather Together cards! These were fun to create!

    • A Sparkly Sneak Peek at the February 2019 FOTM Card Kit

      Posted at 9:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Feb 18th

      Hi, friends! I’m here to share a little peek at the new February 2019 Flavor of the Month card kit from Scrapping for Less! Our theme this month is Whip it Up and it’s all about baking and all kinds of yummy goodies! This is one of my favorites! I love baking with my son and this kit gives me all the good feels!

      This Whisky Business stamp set is included in the Banana Split level kit for February 2019. I love it so much! The font is gorgeous and I think it’s so punny! I wanted to have a simple background to really make the sentiment shine, so I watercolored some stripes with my Brea Reese watercolors and liquid glitter for a sparkly rainbow background. Then I stamped and heat embossed my image and sentiment with white embossing powder. This kit also comes with some loose glitter, so I used some liquid glue at the bottom of the whisk and added some of the glitter for an extra bit of shine!

      I hope you’ve enjoyed this look at the February 2019 Flavor of the Month card kit from Scrapping for Less! The whole kit will be available on the 23rd! Be sure to come back then to see my unboxing video and more cards I’ve made with this kit! See you soon!

    • SugarPea Designs ~ Have a Novel Birthday!

      Posted at 9:00 am by Crystal O. Minkler
      Jun 9th

      Hello! Crystal here with an adorable card using SugarPea Design’s Reading Friends… oh my goodness… this set is so sweet! Reminds me of when I was a kid… I was always reading! Now I’m always card making… lol… well, when I can!

      I started off by stamping the image on white card stock with my go to ink – Memento tuxedo black – and then I colored and colored… I loved coloring this image! I used the following Copic markers ~ Tree – E55, E57, G14, G17; Girls – E0000, E000, E00, R20, E99, YR23, YR24, E11, E31, YR02, YR16, Y000, Y13, B000, B12; Books – N0, Y06, Y35, R14, R27, E55, E57, G12, G14, B000, B02, B24; Sky Background – B0000, B000. I die cut the image and then mount it on a die cut yellow scalloped rectangle. I set that aside.

      I cut the diagonal rainbow paper from Lawn Fawn’s Really Rainbow paper pack and mat it on white card stock. I then adhered that piece to a blue card base. I cut the blue notebook paper from the same Really Rainbow paper pack and adhered it to the card. I then popped up the main image on the card.

      I used the EK Tools Powder Tool Applicator on a scrap of white card stock to keep any static from messing up my stamped sentiment and then using VersaMark watermark ink I stamped the sentiment and heat embossed ultra fine black embossing powder. My last touch was to add a few sequins from my stash. So cute! I love how this turned out! I hope you do too!

      Thanks for stopping by!

      See ya next time.

    • Happy St. Patricks Day with Heffy Doodle!!

      Posted at 9:00 am by Crystal O. Minkler
      Mar 14th

      Hello! Crystal here with a fun card for St. Paddy’s Day! Do you make cards for St. Patrick’s Day? I know it’s not a huge holiday so not too many people do… but I do! I’ve always found St. Patrick’s Day to be a fun day. And really, any excuse to make and send a card is great in my book!

      Isn’t this leprechaun from Heffy Doodle’s Lucky Friends stamp set just the cutest?! I stamped him, the coins, and the cauldron using Memento tuxedo black ink and then colored them using copic markers {Skin – E50, E51; Beard – YR15, YR68; Shoes/Cauldron – N0, N3, N7, N10; Clothes – YG01, YG05, YG17; Coins – Y06, Y28}. I fussy cut those pieces and set them aside.

      I blended some Tumbled Glass distress ink on the center of a white card base. I die cut a piece of patterned paper and cut down another piece of patterned paper and set them aside. I created the rainbow by die cutting leftover papers from past card kits using the Paper Smooches Rainbow die from the February card kit. I stamped the sentiment and fussy cut a banner and then set that aside. All that was left was to adhere all the pieces on the card front. This was such a fun card to make! I hope that you like it and that your St. Paddy’s Day is filled with fun… and not too much mischief!

      Thanks for stopping by!

      See ya next time.
