      Hi everyone!

      Kim here from Cardmaking Blonde sharing with you a scene card I made using stamps from SFL’s VERY FIRST RELEASE! I used Winter Fairies & Fairy House to create a scene card. Here’s a quick run down of how I made it:

      • stamped images in Gina K. Amalgam black ink (I stamped the fairy in Whisper Amalgam ink thinking I would do the no line coloring on the fairy)
      • used Inkadinkado masking paper to mask off both images and fussy cut them out
      • used Distress Oxide Inks in Salty Ocean and Tumbled glass to create the sky
      • colored images in with Copic markers (forgot yet again to take a pic of which colors I used!)
      • realized that the no line coloring was not working and had to do some card repair and stamp, color, and cut out the fairy image and placed her over the no line image
      • used Nuvo Drops in White Blizzard to fill in the snow drifts and snow on the house
      • also added  yellow stickles to the star wand
      • then heat embossed the sentiment in white embossing powder

      Here’s my boo boo:

      I used Copic markers for the Fairy on the inside of the card and Prismacolor pencils for the two fairies on the outside of the card.

      I also used Momento Tuxedo Black Ink for the images, VersaFine Onyx Black Ink for the sentiments, some clear Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pen on the fairies.  I used a mixture of adhesives the liquid adhesive was Art Glitter Glue, foam tape, and a tape roller.

      They are all A2 size cards or 5 1/2 X 4 1/4 inches. Folded into gatefold cards.

      All you need are 12 cut pieces of paper and

    • Happy Fairy Blessings Ornament | Scrapping for Less

      Posted at 2:59 pm by Stacy Tiedemann
      Jan 14th

      Hello, it’s Stacy from Craftaholicmomma up today on the Scrapping for Less blog with a wood slice ornament featuring stamps from the new exclusive Winter Fairy Collection.

      I recently ordered more wood slices from Amazon. This time I purchased them a little bit bigger than the ones I used for my Christmas ornaments. Those were 2.75″-3″ in size, the ones I just got are 3.75″-4″.

      I stamped the fairy and trees from the Winter Fairies stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I then colored the images with my Ohuhu alcohol markers. You could use any alcohol marker or colored pencil to color these in.

      I used Nuvo Glitter Accents in Fresh Snowfall to put some dimension on her hat and ground. Nuvo Crystal Glaze added the perfect shine to the star wand. And lastly I added Nuvo Clear Glitter Glaze marker to her wings.

      Next I felt she needed a decorative box to put her in. So I took two sheets of the Winter in Pink 6×6 paper and made a box.

      For the bottom I scored the sheet at 1″ on all for sides, snipped the corners and taped the edges together with score tape. For the top I cut down the sheet to 5″ square and scored on all four sides at 1/2″ and assembled it the same way. I decorated the top with a triangle scrap I had left over from my Banner I did last week and a white paper doily from Doodlebug. Tying a sheer white ribbon around the box completed my project.

      Thanks for visiting,

    • Sleepy Fairy Card featuring SFL New Release!

      Posted at 7:00 am by Christine Patterson
      Jan 13th

      How adorable is this sleepy fairy?!?! Today I made an interactive card using items from the SFL Release. The fairy is on an action wobbler!

      This card was so much fun to make and I think this fairy is super sweet. I stamped out 2 images from the Winter Fairies stamp set and colored them in with Copic markers. I trimmed down 2 pieces of pattern paper from the Winter in Pink paper pad and used a stitched scallop basic edge die on the star paper. I then stamped the sentiment from the Fairy House stamp set and used a little Spun Sugar distress ink along the edge.

      If you’re interested in the process video, you can view it over on the SFL YouTube channel HERE.

      If you’re interested in the New Release – they are available individually and as a bundle – just click on the photo to be brought to SFL’s Online Store.

    • Sticky Note Holders featuring Winter Fairy Collection|Scrapping for Less

      Posted at 9:00 am by Stacy Tiedemann
      Jan 12th

      Hi everyone!  I’m Beth from Bourbon Creek Crafts and I’m super excited to be a guest designer this month for SFL!  Today I’m sharing a different way to use the Winter Fairies stamp set and Winter in Pink paper pack. I needed some thank you gifts for a birthday party my daughter is having and this bundle was perfect!

       

      I made a decorated post it note pad holder using one of the fairies and sentiments from the Winter Fairies stamp set. I also have a process video on my YouTube channel, Bourbon Creek Crafts.  I colored the fairy with a variety of Prismacolor colored pencils and then accented her hat with Nuvo Glitter Drops in White Diamond and glittered up her wings (and the star on the wand) with clear Wink of Stella.  Because every good fairy should have some sparkle!

      To make the post it note holder, I used a 3 1/4 x 7 inch piece of heavy duty white cardstock.  I scored the cardstock piece at 3 1/4 inches from both ends.  Then I used 2 different papers from the Winter in Pink 6×6 paper pack to decorate the cardstock.  I cut the patterned paper to 3 1/8 inches square, so there was just a small border of the white cardstock base showing and adhered it to the post it note holder base.

      I stamped the “a warm fairy hello” onto white cardstock and cut it down to ¾ inch by 1 3/8 inches.  I also cut one end of that piece into a fish-tail banner.  I fussy cut the fairy and adhered the fairy and the sentiment to the front of the post it note holder. Then I finished it off with some sequins from past SFL Flavor of the Month kits.

      Thanks for stopping by today!  I hope you enjoyed my project!  I look forward to joining you all again later this month!

    • Winter Fairies by SFL!

      Posted at 9:00 am by Kimberly Smith

      sflblog01092020.png

      Hi crafty friends! Kim here from Cardmaking Blonde with a fairy fun shaker card to show off SFL’s new release! (Sorry I couldn’t help myself.) Shaker cards are fun, versatile and add a little something out of your ordinary everyday card. Over the years I have watched many videos of how to make them, different methods and tricks. Every time I sit down to make a shaker card I feel like I’m learning for the first time. I will say this card might be the one I had the least amount of trouble with but please note the trouble is mine not in the technique itself. It’s actually a very simple process I just struggle with it for some strange reason. I have to take each step slowly so that I don’t glue the wrong pieces together.  I was so happy with the way it turned out!

      Here’s a quick run down of what I did:

      • stamped sentiment on the clear acetate sheet  (after hitting it with an Embossing Magic Pad so the embossing powder wouldn’t cling where I didn’t want it to) with VersaFine black onyx ink and then embossed it with clear embossing powder
      • the image from Winter Fairies by SFLwas stamped with Memento black ink then was colored with Prismacolor pencils & maybe Derwent inktense pencils (I keep them in the same case and when I’m coloring I am usually just looking for the right color not which brand)
      • fussy cutted out the image and then went around the edges with a Memento marker in black ink (gives it a finished look even if your edges are a little rough)
      • blinged it up a little with Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss Pen on the moon, her hat and wings (not sure you’ll be able to see it though)
      • the sequins are from my stash and went perfectly with the paper I was using from the Winter in Pink 6×6 paper pad from SFL
      • used Couture Creations 3D Foam Strips-white to create the shaker space (these worked like a dream! and I credit them for making the process much smoother for me this go round)
      •  used a scallop circle frame die to create the shaker window

      I was thrilled with the way it turned out and I am well on my way to using ALL the sentiments between the Winter Fairies stamp set & the Fairy House stamp set!

      20200101_215139

      Hi Everyone!  Luci here with a single layer card using the Brand New Release from SFL “Winter Fairies” and “Fairy House“! How adorable are these sets! I colored the images and created the scene with Copic Markers, and I finished up the card by stamping the sentiment with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink added a few sequins and you can’t have Fairies without some Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pen!

      Check out the process video HERE!

      snapshot.png

      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, I stamped and masked as I went, using Momento Tuxedo Black Ink for stamping the images I was going to color. I drew in some hills with a pencil before I started coloring.   I colored the panel.  Once I finished coloring I adhered the panel to the card base, added a few sequins and used the Sparkle Pen on tops of hills, the roof, the white parts of her hat, and the accents on her dress and shoes.

    • Winter Fairy Party Banner

      Posted at 3:02 pm by Stacy Tiedemann
      Jan 7th

      Hello, it’s Stacy here from Craftaholicmomma today on the Scrapping for Less blog with a paper craft project featuring all three products from the brand new SFL release, Winter Fairy.

      My daughter’s birthday is coming up at the end of January so I wanted to make her something she could use at her party and then afterwards hang in her room.

      This banner was very simple. I did not use any dies, just minimal supplies.

      First I stamped and colored all of the main images from the two stamp sets, Winter Fairies and Fairy House. I’ve heard lots of good things about the Ohuhu Alcohol Markers from Amazon so I wanted to give them a try. I love my Copics but sometimes I want a bullet nib. So I purchased the 200 pack bullet nib markers at a very reasonable price (50 cents a marker). I was very pleased with them. They were all very juicy.

      I listed the colors I used for each image.

      I used my Brother Scan n Cut to cut out my images including the snowflakes.

      Next I picked out 6 sheets of the new SFL Winter in Pink 6×6 paper pack. I trimmed these to 5 1/4″ square. Next I measured the bottom edge halfway (2 5/8″) and made a mark.

      Next I connected the two upper corners with my mark, drew a line and then cut on the two lines to form my banner piece.

      I wanted to mat the paper on white card stock. So the card stock is cut a little bit bigger at 5 1/2″ square. I repeated the same process marking my edge at 2 3/4″.

      Next I took a hand held hole punch and punched two holes in the upper corners of all 6 pieces. This is where I will later string my ribbon through.

      Next I popped up my images on adhesive foam tape and centered them on the banners.

      I finished decorating them with the snowflakes and adhesive bling. I ran pink ribbon to connect them and Viola! I made a seriously adorably cute banner in less than one hour!

      Thanks for visiting and enjoy all of the beautiful projects the design team creates this month with this brand new Winter Fairy release.

    • Winter Fairies Birthday Card – SFL New Release

      Posted at 7:00 am by Christine Patterson
      Jan 6th

      Hello Everyone! Let’s just start by saying “YAY, A SFL Release”!! Today I am making a birthday card using the Winter Fairies 4×6 stamp set and pattern paper from the “Winter in Pink” 6×6 paper pad.

      I first started by making my background. I stamped out the fairy image and snowflake stamp all over the rectangle card stock. I decided to color those images using the cool gray Copic Markers (C1, C3 and C5).

      I also stamped the image and used a variety of Copics to color the wings, hair and skin. I also decided her dress needed some solid parts so I use Copic markers on the neck and middle of the dress. I paper pieced her dress using the pink snowflake paper from the Winter in Pink pattern paper. I adhered the pattern paper with liquid glue.

      While the glue dries on my fairy, I trimmed a piece of vellum with an oval die. Basically at this point my card is ready to put together and add some finishing details. I added “White Blizzard” Nuvo drops on the rim of her hat and Enchanting Pink Glitter Nuvo drops to the left on the vellum.

      On the inside, I just stamped the image with London Fog Memento Ink and added the sentiment from the stamp set “Happy Birthday”

      This release is So Exciting for SFL – right now you can get all 3 items in a bundle CLICK HERE for more information.

      Thank You So Much for stopping by! You can see the process video HERE on the SFL YouTube channel.

      I hope you enjoy and get inspired!
