Hedgehog Hollow - Sept 2019 - Card #2

Hi Everyone,

Today I am working with The Hedgehog Hollow September 2019 Sub Box, I am really loving this box and am happy to be sharing with you my second card for the month.


I started by folding down the card base using my bone folder, I then used my Tim Holtz Guillotine to trim down the blue and the vellum cards from the kit.


I ran the vellum through my Sizzix Big Shot using a Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle Die, I made sure it was in the centre and not near the sides as I wanted to use the leftover vellum as a mat layer on my card.

I used a Lawn Fawn Acrylic Block to stamp out the Infinity stamp from the Feather Envelope Seals stamp set. I prepared the vellum using a powder bag and used Ink On 3 Embossing Ink and Ranger Super Fine White Detail Embossing Powder to stamp out the image. I then used my Heat Tool to melt the embossing powder on the vellum.. just remember to evenly heat as it may burn the vellum.

Turning the vellum over I used a RV63 Copic Marker to colour the infinity symbol (I turned it over to not get an embossing powder on my Copic as this may ruin it).


I stamped the sentiment out onto a scrap of the blue card stock from trimming the mat layer earlier, I used the same ink and embossing powder and melted it using my heat tool.

Using my Glass Media Mat to line up the vellum and my strip I adhered it using some American Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Adhesive.

To finish preparing the blue card stock that I trimmed down earlier I prepared it using Powder Tool and grabbed the Feather Background and Peacock Stamp set and stamped out two of the feathers using Ink on 3 Embossing Ink and a Lawn Fawn Acrylic Block, I was going to leave this to dry but decided to add Ranger Inc Clear Embossing Powder.


I adhered all the layers to a card base from the kit using Glue Dots Glue Squares adhesive runner.

Whimsy Stamps - Cinnamon With Sunflower

Hi All,

Today I am bringing you some sunshine with an image from Whimsy Stamps called Cinnamon with Sunflower.


This is a Digital Stamp so I printed it out onto X-Press It Blending Card Stock using my Brother Laser Printer.


I coloured the image up using Copic Markers and fussy cut her out leaving a small border using my EK Success Cutterbee Scissors.

Using my Uni-Ball Signo White Gel Pen I add the dotted detail to her scarf and a few bits and pieces here and there. I also added some Wink Of Stella to give her a little sparkle.


I ran some patterned paper from Pebbles Inc Spring Fling through my Sizzix Big Shot using Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle Dies, I also cut some other layers from the same paper pad.


Kraft cardstock is from Francheville but you can purchase it from lots of other brands, i'll have a few options linked up for you.


I also cut some pink card stock from my scrap box.


Using La La Land Crafts Build A Bee die I ran it through my Sizzix Big Shot using some black and some yellow scrap bits, I also ran the leaves through a second time with some vellum from my stash.


I adhered all the big layers to a Couture Creations Card Base using Scotch ATG and for the image I used American Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Adhesive.

Finally I added the little bee, I had glued all the layers together first using American Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Adhesive and once he was all together I added some foam dots to him and added him to my card.

I also decorated the inside of the card to match.

Whimsy Stamps - Wee Stamps - Goldie

Hi All :-)

How sweet is this little girl from Whimsy Stamps! She is from the Wee Stamps collection and her name is Goldie, she is available in both Digital and Rubber Stamps.


I used the Digital Stamp and printed her onto X-Press It Blending Cardstock, I used my Copic Markers to colour her up.


I ran the image through my Sizzix Big Shot using Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle Die. I used a mechanical pencil and carefully traced the circle die before running it through, I then used my EK Success Cutterbee scissors to trim out the tail so that it wouldn't get cut off.  I then used an eraser to erase the pencil line.


Using papers from Doodlebug Sugar Shoppe 6x6 Paper pad I trimmed down the aqua striped piece, I then used some white yardstick to create a mat 1cm bigger so as to just give it a border.


I cut down the balloon piece and cut down a purple piece to use as a mat layer. I then used Scotch ATG to adhere all my layers down onto a Couture Creations Card Base.

I cut a yellow piece from the patterned paper and ran it and a leftover flower piece down the centre of my card.


Using Scotch ATG Foam Mounting Tape I adhered the image to the patterned paper.

I added Wink of Stella and Uni-ball white gel pen to the image to finish it off.


I stamped out the sentiment onto some X-Press It Blending Cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black , the sentiment is from Mama Elephant Birthday Sentiments.

Papercraft Business - Oct Use A Tag

Hi Everyone, 

This year has just been flying by, we have now finished September and October has begun.. that means a new challenge over at Papercraft Business

This month Theme: Tag. You’re It! (Create a tag or use a tag)

Come and join in the challenge here.



I decided to use Newton's Nook Newton's Support, I thought he would be great for this challenge, I have also been working on lots of Breast Cancer Fundraiser products lately so this kept me on the theme.


 

I stamped the image out onto X-Press It Blending Card Stock using Memento Tuxedo Black, I then coloured the image up using Copic Markers and fussy cut him using EK Success Cutterbee Scissors leaving a small amount of white border around the image. 


I also used a Uni-Ball White Gel pen to add some details to the image. 




I ran MFT Stamps Stitched Traditional Flag Stax through my Sizzix Big Shot using some pink Bella paper, and some leftover pink shiny paper from our wedding invitations :-) I used the two largest of the dies so I could layer them up. 

I used a MFT Stamps Our Town die and ran it through my Big Shot using some American Crafts White Cardstock, I wanted it to blend in but still have a little texture. 



Using a small pink doily from my stash (I'm sure this thing has been in my stash since me Scrapbooking days haha) and added it to the left hand corner of the smaller of the tags, I adhered it using a little adhesive and then used an off cut from the patterned paper (reversed) across the bottom. 

I then adhered the town die down using some American Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Adhesive.

I wanted to use one of the sentiments from the stamp set, Breast Cancer is close to my heart as I had a close family member go through it a few years ago. I decided to use the "Life Is Tough But So Are You" I thought it was perfect. 



Being that there was a little bit of room at the top I decided to stamp out the little hearts on both sides of the sentiment using some Ink on 3 Blackout Ink, I used a pink Copic just to add a little extra colour. 

I punched a hole in the top of both of the tags (at the same time) and threaded some twine through. Finally I adhered a paper flower from Mont Marte to the top right corner.



My tag was complete and I am super happy :-) Even if it did bring a little tear. 


Dont forget to head over and join is in the October Challenge here,  all you have to do is use a tag. 

I hope you have enjoyed my post today, if you have any questions feel free to send me a message or contact me via facebook (all links can be found below).

Hedgehog Hollow GDT Corners and Feathers

Hi Everyone,

Today I am sharing with you my first GDT Project for Hedgehog Hollow using the September Sub Box.


For my card today, because of course I am going to make a card :-), I have used the Corners and Feathers stamp set, I really love the peacock feathers in the September Sub Box.


I cut down a sheet of Canson Montreal Aquarelle Watercolour Paper and stamped one of the feathers multiple times to cover the sheet using Ink On 3 Blackout Waterproof Ink and a Lawn Fawn Acrylic Block.


Using a Silver Brush Black Velvet Round 6 brush and Winsor and Newton Watercolours I painted all the feathers roughly (I wanted the rough look to them).


I stamped one of the sentiments out onto a strip of American Crafts card stock using Ink On 3 Clear Embossing ink (I prepped the card stock using my Powder Tool) and my Misti Stamping Tool. I added Ranger Ink Super Fine White Detail Embossing Powder and melted it using a heat tool. I then trimmed it down using my Tim Holtz Guillotine.


I used the pink card stock and the card base from the kit to create the layers to my card.

I fussy cut one of the extra feathers that I stamped out and painted using my EK Success Cutterbee Scissors and adhered it to my card, I then adhered the sentiment strip over the top.

I adhered the stamped piece down to the pink layer using Scotch Foam Tape, then I adhered all the layers to my Card Base using American Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Adhesive.

Finally I used Wink Of Stella on the extra feather and my card was complete.


I hope you have enjoyed my post today, if you have any questions feel free to send me a message or contact me via facebook (all links can be found below).

Avery Elle - Spring Bouquet Thankyou Card

Hi Everyone,

A friend asked me to make a Thankyou card for her so I pulled out Spring Bouquet from Avery Elle. This is the first time I have used this stamp set and oh my.. it is just perfect. First stamping was absolutely perfect no need to do anything to the stamp it was just beautiful first go.




I put the stamp into my Misti Stamping Tool and using Memento Tuxedo Black I stamped the image onto X-Press It Blending Card Stock.

I ran the image through my Sizzix Big Shot using Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle Die.


I coloured the image up using Copic Markers, I didn't use a whole lot of colours on this card but did blend a few colours that I wouldn't normally use.













My Friend wanted a personalised sentiment on the front of the card, so I typed it up on my computer, printed it onto X-Press It Blending Card so everything was the same white and trimmed it down on my trimmer.


I used patterned papers from Pebbles Party with Amy Locurto - Rainbow Collection, I trimmed down a couple of the layers on my trimmer and adhered them using Scotch ATG.



I really love the way this card turned out, The colours blended so perfect together :-)
