Kick Your Feet Up!


Today I’m sharing a birthday card that I made for my husband’s birthday back in August. Image and sentiment is from Art Impressions – Sit Back Laugh Lines – 5421.

My Creative Time – Rectangle Frame Die was used to die cut the rectangle out of Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using a Cuttlebug. The image was then stamped onto the paper using a MISTI and Memento – Tuxedo Black ink. It was coloured in with the Copic markers listed below and then adhered to some blue cardstock using liquid glue. I cut around the image rectangle leaving a thin border and then repeated the process with black cardstock. The sentiment was stamped with Versa Fine – Onyx Black ink  onto blue cardstock and then Ranger – Clear Super Fine Detail embossing powder was applied. A Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool was used to heat emboss the powder. This was fussy cut and adhered to black cardstock using liquid glue.

The base of the card was created using a 5.5″ x 4.25″ base made from Hammermill – Premium Cardstock 110 lb.cardstock. I applied birthday patterned paper to the base which was cut to the same size and the edges were inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Faded Jeans. I centred the layered coloured image rectangle onto the card using liquid glue and then popped up the sentiment using U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape in the top left corner to complete the card. Inside the card were more fun sentiments regarding getting older. LOL!

My husband loved it and I hope you do to!

Monster-ous Birthday Wishes!


Today I’m sharing a birthday card that I made using the image and colouring class from Kit and Clowder – Bonus Class – July – August 2024 – Cute Monster. Had so much fun with this class learning how to blend colours and make spiky fur!

The image was printed onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using a HP printer set to High Quality Grayscale at the size of 3.75″ x 3.24″. It was coloured in using the instructional video from Alyce from Kit and Clowder and then fussy cut.  The cut image was applied to Recollections – Black cardstock and fussy cut again. The sentiment from Your Next Stamp – Silly Monsters was applied using Ranger Embossing Powder White – Extra Fine Detail and VersaMark ink onto Recollections – Black cardstock. A MISTI was used to get a clear stamped image. The embossing powder was heat embossed with a Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool. The sentiment was then fussy cut.

A card base at the size of 5.5″ x 4.25″ using Hammermill – Premium Cardstock 110 lb. cardstock was created. Tim Holtz Distress Inks – Peacock Feathers was applied all around the inside edges of the card with a blender brush. The patterned monster paper from Forever In Time – Party Monsters Perfect Prints was cut to the size of 5-3/8″ x 4-1/8″ and Tim Holtz Distress Inks – Shaded Lilac was applied all around the edges using a blender brush and finger dauber. This was adhered directly to the base using liquid glue. U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape was applied to the monster and the sentiment and both were popped up onto the centre of the card. Lastly, Kraftin’ Kimmie – Underwater Dots and Stickles – Diamond were applied to the finished card to add some bling.

Retired – Bye Bye!


I finished my last day of work on Friday, August 16, 2024. My official date will be Saturday, September 14, 2024 as I tacked on my vacation pay on the end. 🙂
My co-workers gave me an amazing retirement party and parting gifts and we all had a wonderful time. I shall cherish the memories for a long time to come.

Today I’m sharing a retirement card that I made for my co-workers who were on my immediate Systems Administrator’s team and also the Networking team whom I had worked closely with over the last 13.5 years. Each of the card fronts were created using various stamps from Art Impressions – Pack Your Bags Set.

With My Creative Time dies listed below, a Cuttlebug and papers from Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card, I die cut the rectangles and ovals. Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. paper was used to die cut the circles. Recollections – Midnight Navy Cardstock was then cut into rectangles 3-7/8″ x 2-5″8″. Using my Cricut and Cricut Design Space, I measured the circle die cut and oval die cut and then created my own solid cuts. To do this I used some white plain printer paper until I was satisified with the cut, then I set the device to cut out 19 of each out of the Recollections – Midnight Navy Cardstock.

The images were stamped onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card with Memento – Tuxedo Black ink and a MISTI. The MISTI was so perfect to use because I made 19 cards in total, so I just positioned the stamps once and then kept substituting the die cut papers until I was done. This made the stamping so easy. I used the same process for the sentiment, except I chose to use Versa Fine – Majestic Blue this time.

The images were coloured in with the Copics listed below. Once all of the images were coloured and the sentiments were stamped, I assembled the 2 pieces for each shape together with liquid glue and set them aside.

The bases of the cards were created using a 5.5″ x 4.25″ base made from Hammermill – Premium Cardstock 110 lb.cardstock. Papers from Creative Memories and PhotoPlay listed below were then cut to the size of 5.25″ x 4″ each. The edges were then inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Chipped Sapphire.

To assemble the card, I used liquid glue to attach the background papers and each of the shapes. These were all adhered to each card. To create the notes on the inside, I used Microsoft Office Word and created 4 sentiments per 11″ x 8.5″ sheet of landscaped paper by creating text boxes at the size of 5.25″ x 4″. Once they were all printed out, I just cut them to size and adhered them with double-sided tape.
