Today I’m sharing a card that I made following a video from the Kit and Clowder – Scrapbooking Fun Summit June 2026 colouring class by Alyce Keegan. She taught us how to colour this beautiful background within the circle and this adorable little bird in this amazing class.

The base card for the 1st image was created to the size of 4.25″ x 5.5″ out of Hammermill – Premium 110 lb. Cardstock. Momenta – Cardstock was cut to the size of 4″ x 5.25″ and attached to the base using liquid glue. The sentiment was applied to the Momenta Cardstock using a MISTI, Versa Fine – Onyx Black ink and Your Next Stamp – Party Pets (CYNS586). Ranger – Clear Super Fine Detail embossing powder was applied over the sentiment and then it was heat embossed with a Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool.

The image provided by Alyce was printed out with my HP Printer onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using High Quality Greyscale and coloured in with Copic markers as per the class instructions. The finished image was then fussy cut and glued onto Recollections – Black cardstock.  U-Line Double-Sided foam tape was attached to the back of the black cardstock and it was popped up onto the base card above the sentiment. Kraftin’ Kimmie pop dots were added to finish the card off.

For the 2nd card. I decided to print out the image again and colour it once more utilizing the lessons that I had learned from Alyce’s class. Once the image was coloured, I fussy cut around it and applied U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape to the back of it.

This time, I made a Thank You card using AC Cardstock – White cardstock for my base to the size of 6″ x 6″. Pinkfresh Studios – Happy Heart paper was cut to the size of 5.5″ x 5.5″ and then with a Sharpie – Gold Medium Point – Water Based Paint, I inked around all of the edges. Spellbinders – Thanks Enclosed Sentiments – Etched Dies from the Four Petal Collection were used to die cut white cardstock and Spellbinders Gold carstock. These were then glued together with liquid glue. U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape was applied to the backs of the sentiments and coloured cardstock. All pieces were then popped up onto the base and some pop dots were added to complete the card. I also used some of the Gold ink from the pen to create a gold ink spatter on the background.

It amazed me how different the 2 cards turned out, simply by changing the backgrounds.
