Enjoy The Little Moments


Today, I’m sharing a card using KLM Digital DesignFloral Branch Frames from the new June 2024 release and the sentiment from KLM Digital DesignFloral Coffee Cup. The floral frames stamp set comes with 4 beautiful floral frames to choose from. I love these frames because you can use them for so many different occasions.

Hammermill – Premium Cardstock 110 lb. was used to create a 5.5″ x 4.25″ card base. I cut Momenta – Cardstock paper to the same size for the background and applied it directly to the base using double-sided tape. With a Cuttlebug, I die cut the Lattice background using Pinkfresh Studio – Elongated Lattice die and Recollections white cardstock. Zig 2 way glue was applied to the back of the die cut and it was adhered to the base.

The image was imported into Microsoft Word and printed out onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card. I coloured in the image with Copic markers listed below and then applied iCraft – deco foil adhesive pen around the circle frame border. Once the glue was dry, I rubbed on some gold foil from Prima (Rub-On) Foils – Jolly. This was my very first time trying this and I wasn’t quite satisfied as the border wasn’t completely smooth. I tested a small piece of paper on the side with some Zig 2 way glue with a finer point and waited for the glue to dry. I tried using the gold foil on this and saw that it worked. Yay! So once again, I repeated the process and went around the circle with the Zig glue this time and the rubbed the foil on to make the circle smoother. I will definitely be trying to use this technique more often now for sure.

The image was fussy cut and then popped up onto the card using U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape. Lastly, to add a little bit of bling to the card, I applied some random Pixie Dust Glittered – YNS Gumdrops.

Welcome High Hopes Rubber Stamps Fans!

It’s Wednesday, and for my last High Hopes card for the year, I’m sharing a couple of good friends just relaxing and taking it easy! Sometimes it is nice to just chill out a bit! LOL! The stamp for the main image is called South Pole Pals R147 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps).

To make my card, I decided to keep it simple. I cut out the frame using Amy Design – Dies – Keep It Cool – Cool Square Frame and Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card. Next, I stamped the image using my MISTI into the centre of the die cut. I coloured this in with the Copic markers listed below. For the outside of the die cut, I used Tim Holtz Distress Inks – Broken China and sponged on the ink using a dauber.

To create the background for the main image, I re-stamped the main image onto Inkadoo Stamping Mask Paper and fussy cut it out. Then I placed the mask over my coloured image. Next I used a mixture of Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks, Faded Jeans, Wilted Violet and Festive Berries to create the sky. I have never tried this before, and just love the way it turned out.

For the snow, I stamped the bottom of the image with VersaMark ink and then added WOW! Embossing Glitter – White Puff Twinkle. I heated up the embossing powder with my heat gun and then added some Stickles – Diamond along the top of the snow.

Next I assembled the card onto 5.5″ x 5.5″ white AC Cardstock. I cut out a piece of 5.5″ x 5.5″ Hot Buy Craft Smart – Holiday Glitz Glitter Paper and mounted it with 2 sided tape onto the base. Then I added glue to the back of the frame and centre previously cut and coloured with Zig 2 Way Glue and mounted it onto top of the card.

Lastly, I added the sentiment Magic Friendship F234 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps) and popped it up with 3M VHB – 2 sided tape to finish up the card.
