Dad’s 90th Birthday!

Apr27

Today I’m sharing a Birthday card that I made for my dad’s 90th Birthday last week using the image and sentiments from Art Impressions – Dance It Out – 5278. We had a nice party for him surrounded by family and close friends and he enjoyed every minute of it. 🙂 I created the fishes on the shirt because my dad has always loved fishing and I thought it would be fun to do.

To create the card, I began with the card base of 3.75″ x 9″ using Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. cardstock. With a Cuttlebug, I die cut the sentiment using Spellbinders – Phrase Set 1 and the numbers with Lawn Fawn Lawn Cuts – Henry’s 123s and then adhered them directly to the card using liquid glue. With a stamping block and Versa Fine – Onyx Black, several sentiments were stamped using the Art Impressions – Dance It Out – 5278 set.

Once this was completed, it was time to create the background. To do this,  I placed down the stencil from Lawn Fawn – Confetti Stencils and applied multiple Tim Holtz Distress inks with some small blending brushes. I continued to do this until, I covered the entire card, being sure to not colour over any of the lettering.

With Memento – Tuxedo Black ink and my MISTI, I stamped the image onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card and then coloured it in. Once this was completed, I then fussy cut around the entire image and popped it up onto the card using U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape.

I applied some small balloons with some die cuts that I had cut out earlier using Your Next Stamp – Mini Balloon Trio Die Set and then added in the “th”, strings for the balloons and eyes for the fish with a Sakura Glaze – Black pen. The inside of the card also had a lot of fun sayings.

I made my dad this fun T-shirt too using my Cricut. He loved his card and shirt an I hope you do too!

Penguin Candy Cane !

Dec5

Today I’m sharing another Christmas card that I made using Whimsy Stamps – Penguin Candy Cane.

The image was printed out with my HP Printer onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using High Quality Grayscale and coloured in with Copic markers. Once I finished colouring the image, I fussy cut around it.

The base card was created to the size of 4.25″ x 5.5″ out of Hammermill – Premium 110 lb. cardstock. Creative Expressions – Christmas Wishes paper was cut to be the same size as the base and was applied directly to the card using double-sided tape. A finger dauber was used to apply Tim Holtz Distress Inks – Candied Apple around all of the edges of the card. Using a Cuttlebug, I die cut the larger snowflake with Creative Expressions – Festive Collection – Lace Snowflake Frame and the smaller snowflakes with Poppy – Simple Snowflakes out of Lawn Fawn – Sparkle Cardstock in “Pixie Dust” paper. The holly and leaves were die cut using dies from Spellbinders – Dancin’ Figgy Pudding and some scraps of Recollections – Green cardstock and Crafter’s Companion Luxury Cardstock – Red. I used a Copic marker G99 to make the veins darker in the leaves and a White Gelly Roll Sakura #10 Pen to add a highlight on the berries and then used liquid glue to assemble them.

The whole card was now ready to assemble. U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape was applied to the completed image and it was popped up onto the centre of the large snowflake. U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape was then applied to the large snowflake and it was popped up onto the centre of the card. Liquid glue was applied to the holly and berries and smaller snowflakes which were adhered directly to the card base. Lastly, I applied U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape to the sentiment from Hunkydory Essential Book of Christmas Sentiments 2023 and popped it up onto the corner of the card to finish it off.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!!

Mar17

Today I am sharing a Happy St. Patrick’s Day card I made using Gerda Steiner Stamps – St. Patrick’s Day Cat and Hat Digital Stamp stamp for the image and Lawn Fawn – Celebration Scripty Sentiments for the sentiment. Lawn Fawn – Clover Background Stencils were used to create the background.

 

To make my cards this week, I began with a card base of Hammermill – Premium Cardstock 110 lb. cardstock, cut and scored to be 5.5″ x 4.25″. I created the background using Lawn Fawn – Clover Background Stencils, and applying Tim Holtz Distress Inks – Lucky Clover for the first layer and then Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Pine Needles for the second layer along with the Lucky Clover ink in spots using an ink blending brush. Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Pine Needles was then applied all around the edges of the card using a finger dauber.

The image was imported into Microsoft Word and then printed out onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card paper using HP Printer Grayscale. With my Cuttlebug, I die cut the image using dies from My Creative Time – Rectangle Frame Die Layers. The image was coloured in with Copic Markers and then Tim Holtz Distress Inks – Mowed Lawn was applied around the edges of the die cut.

The sentiment was stamped directly onto the base card using Versa Fine – Onyx Black ink and MISTI for placement. I embossed the sentiment with Ranger – Clear Super Fine Detail embossing powder and then heat embossed it with a Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool. U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape was applied to back of the coloured image and it was popped up onto the centre of the card. Lastly, I added in a few sparkly Gumdrops from Your Next Stamp.

Bride To Be Gnome!

Mar16

Today I’m sharing a Bride To Be card using KLM Digital Design – Bridal Gnome II from the new March 2024 release. This image also comes with 3 more sentiments, “Congratulations”, “on your engagement” and “on your marriage”. My niece is getting married this year and I thought this would be a wonderful card for her.

The image and sentiment were imported into Microsoft Word and printed out onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card. Using a Cuttlebug and dies from Spellbinders – Grand Arch 3D card, I die cut the image and Recollections – Matte Gold Foil cardstock was used to die cut the Trellis. The clouds were die cut using Hammermill – Premium Cardstock 110 lb. and Lawn Fawn – Platform Pop-Up Cloud Inserts dies. I created a base card using Hammermill – Premium Cardstock 110 lb. cardstock and for the front flap, I used Cuttlebug Embossing Folder – Swiss dots stencil and ran it through my Cuttlebug. The image was coloured in with the Copics listed below. The sentiment and gold background were cut and layered together using U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape.

The card was now ready to assemble. Using liquid glue, I applied the gold trellis and coloured image directly to the base. The sentiment was popped up and centred onto the top of the card. Lastly, using some glue dots, I added in 3 flowers from my stash to both sides at the bottom of the card to give it some extra colour.

I created a 5.5″ x 4.25″ card base using Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. cardstock. I cut the background to be the same size using DCWV Happy Haunts cardstock.and adhered it directly to the base using double-sided tape. Using Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Villainous Potion and a finger dauber, I inked around all of the edges of the card and put a few coats onto the bottom of the card. With my Cuttlebug, I die cut the sentiment 4 times and the kitty cats once. Using liquid glue, I adhered each of the sentiments together and then applied it to the card. I applied 2 layers of U-Line double-sided tape to the backs of the cats and a touch of glue and added them to the card.

Toadly Awesome!!

Oct18

Sharing a card I made today using KLM Digital Designs –  Ryan The Frog Catcher from the new October release. This image also comes with 2 more sayings: “You’re unfrogetable” and “Don’t worry, be hoppy”.

To make the card, I first imported the image and sentiment into Microsoft Word and printed them out onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card.  The image was coloured in with Copic markers and then fussy cut and inked around the edges with a black marker. I fussy cut around the sentiment and ran it through my Xyron Create a Sticker. I applied this to some green cardstock and then repeated the process to add it to some more green cardstock. Once again, I fussy cut around it and then added 3M VHB – 2 sided tape to the back of it to pop-it up onto the card later.

For the base card, I used Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. cardstock and cut it and scored it to be 5.5″ x 4.25″. I cut AC – Green Cardstock to the same size as the base and attached it using double-sided tape. For the inside background, I cut Reminisce – The Menagerie – Happy Frogs paper to the size of 5.25″ x 4″, 1 lime green panel – 5.25″ x 2″, 1 darker green panel, 1 medium green panel and 1 lighter green panel to the size of 5.25″ x .5″. I applied some Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Rustic Wilderness using a Picket Fence Studio Blender Brush to the 2″ panel on both of the long sides. Using my Cuttlebug and various scraps of greens and browns, I die cut the grass and cattails using Lawn Fawn – Shadow Box Card Park Add-On, Lawn Fawn – Bayou Backdrop and Lawn Fawn – Meadow Backdrop: Landscape.

The card was now ready to assemble. I attached the smaller patch of grass on the right side of the frog background with glue. Next, I added the 2″ panel on the left size. Using glue, I attached each of the remaining .5″ panels, centering them in between the 2″ green panel. The 2nd layer of grass was attached with glue along the lower edge of the card and then I used scissors to cut off the pieces that were over the edges of the main background piece. I made sure that no glue was added to the tops of the grasses. I pieced the 2 cattails together using glue and then popped up the tops of them with 3M VHB – 2 sided tape. I added some glue and inserted the 1st cattail under the top blades of grass. 3M VHB – 2 sided tape was added to the back of the boy and the net, except for the area behind the shoes and he was inserted under the top blade of grass and in front of the cattail. The other cattail was then applied to the card using 3M VHB – 2 sided tape for the top part of the cattail and glue was added to the remainder of the piece and added to the card. The other 2 darker blades of grass were added with some glue. Lastly, to finish off the card, the popped up sentiment was added.
