Glitzy Hoppy Holidays

Hello, my crafty friends! Today I put this 1 layer watercolor card using the NEW Hoppy Holidays 4x6 Stamp Set together for you! Don't forget to check out my process video HERE


I love seeing this bunny popping out of the envelope! I pulled out my Karin Markers and some Arches Cold Press watercolor paper. I did heat emboss my image with clear embossing powder to give me wells to stay in. This card was so quick to create and would be easy to mass produce for Christmas!


I did add my own little embellishments just to give it that little bit of pop. You can also check out how I put this card together on our YouTube channel HERE

 




Joyful Greetings!

 


Hello! I just cannot get enough of this sweet image from the Hoppy Holidays stamp set. It is so darn cute and fun to color.

For this card, I heat embossed and water colored my image. I started out by stamping my image onto water color paper using an embossing ink pad. I then covered my image with silver embossing powder and heat set it. 

I then colored the whole image using water color brush markers.



Once my image had died completely, I die cut it out using a dotted oval die from my stash. 

Then I added my sentiment under the envelope. I stamped it with the embossing ink and heat set silver embossing powder on top.

I chose a pretty patterned holiday paper that coordinated with my image. Then I trimmed it to 4.25 x 5.5 ( A2 Sized) and adhered it to an A2 card base. I then adhered my oval water colored image onto the card.

To finish off the card, I added some self adhesive silver embellishments to each corner of the card and 3 tiny ones on the oval.

I hope my card inspires you to work on some Christmas in July cards to get a jump on the holidays. Thanks for visiting!

Cake for everyone!

Hello crafty friends! Melinda here to share another card for The Rabbit Hole Designs January birthday release. 

For todays card I wanted to combine the Open Heart stencil and the Just Cake stamp and die.



I started by adding a touch of blue ink onto my panel. I made it darker in the center fading out to a lighter color. Next I added some Nuvo glitter paste and set aside to dry. I watercolored my cake and cut it out with the coordinating die. After my glitter paste was dry I cut my panel down to 3 3/4 inches by 5 inches. I popped the base layer up with some foam tape and then added my die cut cake which I also popped up with some more foam tape. 



 
I absolutely love the way the Open Heart stencil spotlights the main image on your card! This stencil isn't just for Valentines day, its great on any card.




Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a look and I hope I've provided some inspiration for using these wonderful products!

C-ANT before Coffee

Hello Everyone! 
Donna here with you today sharing our mid-month post.
I can't believe it's already the middle of May.
I hope you've been able to enjoy some creative time as a diversion 
during all the craziness going on in our world right now.

For my post this month I created this cute little layered card using lots of
scraps from my stash along with some new products.

I chose water color for my medium on this cute little Ant from the
Buggy For Caffeine stamp set.


Buggy for Caffeine
This stamp set has a bazillion possibilities and there is also a coordinating Buggy for Caffeine die set. 


Broken Glass Stencil

To add some interest on my card base I used the Broken Glass Stencil and created some
shadows which I kinda sorta think look like ant trails. I used Picket Fence distress ink for the shading on that element of my card.  

Thank you so much for joining me today!
Wishing you the most beautiful day.
