Hi everyone! Today I am back with a floral card featuring some heat embossed accents, as well as the Studio Katia <a href="https://ldli.co/e/y6g5kk">Honey Bees</a> and <a href="https://ldli.co/e/r1ze21">Floral Garden</a> stamp sets. Make sure to watch the video at the end of this post for a step by step tutorial, showing how you can make it too!<br />
<br />
For my card background, I started by die cutting some Bristol Smooth Cardstock with the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/orx651">Darling Ribbon & Frames dies</a>. I heat embossed the images in the Floral Garden stamp set with gold embossing powder and then did some ink blending with Distress Oxides. I used Black Soot, Chipped Sapphire and Salty Ocean together with my Studio Katia <a href="https://ldli.co/e/dypor5">blending brushes.</a><br />I then decided to add a little more detail to the background. I used the Oxide lift technique to lighten up some of the flowers on my background and added a few strokes with a Prismacolor pencil. If you are not familiar with the Distress Oxide Lift technique, make sure to watch the video, as I explain it in more detail there! :)<br />

<br />
Next, I created some metallic accents for my card. I cut a thin rectangle frame as well as a dome shaped frame out of some white cardstock, using the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/ly7k2p">Dotted Square Frame Die</a> and the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/xn659d">Scallop Square Dies.</a> I then coated the die cuts with clear embossing ink and embossed them with gold embossing powder. I repeated this step a couple of times, so that my die cuts would be nice and dimensional, and I did the same for my sentiment, for which I used the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/1q65o7">Lovely Words Dies</a>.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
For a touch of cuteness, I stamped and colored a few of the images in the Honey Bees stamp set. I die cut them with the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/gynx9x">coordinating dies</a> and glued them to my card front. I also created a focal point on my card by backing my domed shape frame with some vellum.<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As a last step, I scattered some <a href="https://ldli.co/e/6qn1dl">Gold Foil Confetti</a> on my card front.

Hi everyone! It's Laura here and today I am back with a fun Pull Tab Valentine's day card and a hack to make a DIY stencil for your cards! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Pull Tab cards are interactive cards where, as the name suggests, you can pull a tab to reveal a hidden element...in this case I opted for the evil Cupid in the Cupido Stamp set by Impronte d'Autore!</div>

I started by stamping the images on smooth white cardstock. I used Versafine Onyx Black ink and I did some embossing with clear embossing powder, before coloring them with my Art&Graphic Twin markers. Once I was done coloring, I die cut them with the coordinating dies. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I then cut some more smooth white cardstock to 4.25x5.5", which is the size of my card front. I used the Bordo Nuvole dies to obtain two cloud borders.</div>

<br />
I then created my DIY stencil. I used again the Bordo Nuvole dies and cut out some acetate. I used two different dies on either side of my custom stencil, so that it would be even more versatile!<br />
This is super easy to do and, because we are using acetate, it will be really easy to clean our stencil so that we can use it over and over again!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Next, I created my sky on some more smooth white cardstock. I die cut it with the Lawn Fawn Small Stitched Rectangle Stackables dies and created a cloudy sky with Distress Inks and my DIY stencil. I used Mermaid Lagoon, Peacock Feathers and Cracked Pistachio. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It is not shown in the picture, but at this stage I also blended Mermaid Lagoon, Peacock Feathers on the two cloud borders and I glued them together.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
At this point, it was time to start creating the interactive element for my card, and the Lawn Fawn Let's Toast Pull Tab Add On dies make the job really easy. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As a first step, I used the larger die in the set to cut my pull tab. The die also embosses some lines so that we can fold the paper like I am showing in the picture above.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Next, I used two more dies from the Lawn Fawn Let's Toast Pull Tab Add On set and created a notch at the top of my Sky panel as well as a slit where I want my interactive element to move. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIbYkN2FxcyM6t50L0EkerugqgfObbnSspeXcPOjnE02VjPNjpfjpUuVyIYxXWW4eAQDIXSSm77LbdTBvwRG3SBv15DQPKY8By5mI_5GjOvwUPPPPkq8tQeFWlItJgGtRYmp8rV0yatr4/s1600/Valentine%2527s+Day+Pull+Tab+Card+feat+Impronte+d%2527Autore+Cupido+and+Lawn+Fawn+Let%2527s+Toast+Pull+Tab+Add-On+%25289%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Pull Tab Valentine's Day Card with DIY Stencil - Impronte d'Autore Cupido and Lawn Fawn Let's Toast Pull Tab Add On" border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIbYkN2FxcyM6t50L0EkerugqgfObbnSspeXcPOjnE02VjPNjpfjpUuVyIYxXWW4eAQDIXSSm77LbdTBvwRG3SBv15DQPKY8By5mI_5GjOvwUPPPPkq8tQeFWlItJgGtRYmp8rV0yatr4/s400/Valentine%2527s+Day+Pull+Tab+Card+feat+Impronte+d%2527Autore+Cupido+and+Lawn+Fawn+Let%2527s+Toast+Pull+Tab+Add-On+%25289%2529.JPG" title="" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The pull tab will move behind the sky panel and we will glue our moving image to the flaps that we will have inserted in the slit. (in my case the evil Cupid).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Before doing that, though, I exetended the slit with the same die I used to create it in the first place. This way there is enough room for my hidden image to pop out of the cloud border, that I will be adhering later on.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
At this point I could go ahead and glue my image to the Pull Tab mechanism. I also decorated the top of the pull tab with another die in the Lawn Fawn Let's Toast Pull Tab Add-On set. I then mounted everything on an A2 sized card base, using foam tape.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I added the cloud border and the rest of the images to my card front and, for some finishing touches, I used Crystal Stickles and Glossy Accents. The sentiment was created out of black cardstock with the Impronte d'Autore Hello die.<br />
<br />

<br />
For my card today I went for a clean and simple look.<br />
I started by die cutting some Bristol Smooth Cardstock with the rectangle dies in the <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/2q3ozy" target="_blank">Cascading Hearts</a> </b>and <a href="https://ldli.co/e/0q4k16" target="_blank"><b>Lucky Clouds</b></a> die sets. This left me with two panels, one slightly larger than the other.<br />
<br />
I then created a focal area on the smaller rectangle using the stitched die in the <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/5q402q" target="_blank">Circle Around </a></b>die set by FSJ. It is not so visible in the pictures but I thin it looks really neat in real life!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Next, I stamped my images with Premium Hybrid Black ink by Scrapbook.com on some more Bristol Smooth Cardstock, using my MISTI. I colored them with Arteza Brush Markers and cut them out.</div>
<br />
I stamped the sentiment on black cardstock with Gold Midas Ink by Spectrum Noir, that I also blended on the edges of my background panel.<br />

Hi everyone! Today I am back with a <b>Clean and Simple Valentine's day card</b> <b>and a video tutorial </b>showing how to create it! The card is really easy to make, and features a cute stamp set and more awesome products from the latest LDRS Creative release! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br />
For the base of my card I used two die sets: the new <b>Open Heart die set [<a href="https://ldli.co/e/3qrm7j" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LDRS </a>| <a href="https://ldli.co/e/my41pd" target="_blank">SBC</a>]</b> and the <b>Eyelet Lace Rectangle die set [<a href="https://ldli.co/e/eyop6p" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LDRS </a>| <a href="https://ldli.co/e/qxrkp5" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">SBC</a>]</b>. I used them to cut some pink cardstock in different shades, as well as some white cardstock. The white on white effect may not be obvious on camera but it really adds an extra touch to the card!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Next, I stamped, colored and die cut one of the sweet images in the new <b>Friends stamp set [<a href="https://ldli.co/e/9xlze4" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LDRS </a>| <a href="https://ldli.co/e/kp4l2m" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">SBC</a>]</b>. I adore this sweet little image and I am definitely gifting this card to my husband!<br />
<br />

For the sentiment I used some more products from the latest release: the<b> Anytime Stack stamp set [<a href="https://ldli.co/e/0qneo4" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LDRS </a>| <a href="https://ldli.co/e/4qpmnr" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">SBC</a>]</b> and the<b> Sentiment Stack coordinating dies [<a href="https://ldli.co/e/2qpmkz" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LDRS </a>| <a href="https://ldli.co/e/5qml6p" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">SBC</a>]</b>. These products used together allow you to create a bunch of sentiments with only one pass through your die cutting machine - so cool! There is also a second set of matching sentiments, the<b> Love Stack set [<a href="https://ldli.co/e/6qpxgl" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LDRS </a>| <a href="https://ldli.co/e/gyj50j" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">SBC</a>]</b>!<br />
<br />
For my greeting today I did my stamping with LDRS Creative white pigment ink on black cardstock.<br />
<br />
As I mentioned, <b>there is a video tutorial for you guys,</b> where I share the step by step process for this Clean and Simple Valentine's Day Card! <br />
Don't forget to subscribe if you enjoyed the video and to <b>let me know if you also create cards for Valentine's day! </b>I am curious to know! :)<br />

<strong>I started from the background,</strong> for which I used Distress Inks in Wilted Violet, Picked Raspberry, Carved Pumpkin, Mustard Seed, Twisted Citron and Mermaid Lagoon. The cardstock I used is watercolor cardstock by Crafters Companion, and you will also need a Distress Sprayer and a paintbrush. Again,<strong> I included a detailed explanation of this fun Distress Ink technique in the video at the end of this post,</strong> so make sure to check it out! <br />

Once I was done creating the background, I die cut it with the <strong><a href="https://ldli.co/e/kp4kl4">Scallop Honeycomb Cover Dies</a></strong>. The card base is an A2 sized panel that I cut out of some black cardstock with the<strong><a href="https://ldli.co/e/9xlozd"> Darling Ribbon&Frames Dies</a></strong>.<br />

Next, I stamped one of the images from the <strong><a href="https://ldli.co/e/orge9k">Artsy Trimmings stamp set</a></strong> right on top of my background. I used Scrapbook.com Premium Hybrid Black Ink and my Mini MISTI and then colored over the background with Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers. I chose markers that would match as closely as possible the colors I have on my background. <br />

On a separate piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock, I stamped and colored two more images. I chose one of the bees from the<strong><a href="https://ldli.co/e/xnmeq4"> Studio Katia Honey Bees stamp set </a></strong>and the paintbrush from the <strong><a href="https://ldli.co/e/dy904m">Kobi Loves School stamp set</a></strong>. <strong> I also have a color chart for you</strong>, listing all the markers I used on today's card!<br />

<br />
For the sentiment I used one of the dies in the <strong><a href="https://ldli.co/e/ly301g">Artsy Trimmings coordinating dies</a></strong> and I cut some black cardstock. I completed the greeting with one of the sayings in the <strong><a href="https://ldli.co/e/eyok52">Peony Trimmings stamps set.</a></strong><br />
Next, I added some embellishments and some <strong>finishing touches</strong> (you will know by now that I <em>love </em>those!). I used the Studio Katia Iridescent Bubbles and the new <a href="https://ldli.co/e/7opx13"><strong>Tiny Iridescent Bubbles</strong></a> around my greeting...<br />

<br />
...and coated the images at the top of my card with a Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay pen. I added more glitter to the Bee's wings, antennas and to the tip of the paintbrush with some Crystal Stickles. To finish off the card, I added some Glossy Accents to the word <em>Crafty </em>and left everything aside to dry.<br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #404248; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Hi everyone! Today I am back with a cute Spring card that I created with products from the latest Studio Katia release! As you may have seen on Facebook, the new products were released yesterday, and today we are celebrating with a hop with giveaways!

Hi everyone! Today I am back with a card I created with the no-line coloring technique and the<a href="https://ldli.co/e/l9d96p"> Kind Bouquet stamp set.</a> Don't forget to check out the video at the end of this post, if you are interested in seeing the step by step tutorial!<br />
I started my card by stamping the beautiful roses in the Kind Bouquet stamp set with no-line ink and I colored them with my Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers. I then used the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/xz3zgd">Kind Bouquet Dies</a> to cut it out.<br />
<br />

<br />
For the card background I die cut some Bristol Smooth cardstock with the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/1yxyk7">Darling Ribbon& Dotted Frames</a> dies and I blended Harmony Ink in the color Spa Blue over the entire background, using my <a href="https://ldli.co/e/p67lr3">Studio Katia Blending Brushes.</a> Next I layed the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/9k6kr4">Autumn Leaves</a> stencil over my background. I blended Harmony Ink in the color Lagoon over the panel and then coated the area with a clear glitter gel.<br />
<br />

<br />
I created a second panel out of some vanilla cardstock using the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/dg5gm5">Dotted Patterns Set 3</a> dies. I used another die in the set to also cut out an oval opening in the center.<br />
For my sentiment I used the <em>hello</em> die in the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/zkek5z">Fancy Scallop Circle</a> set and I die cut some Neenah Solar White cardstock. I glued everything to a top-folding A2 card base and that finished off my card.<br />

For my card today I used one of my favorite stamp sets from the past holiday season, which I had not had the chance to use yet! It is the My Favorite Things Snow Buddies set and I<i> love it!</i> I stamped the images on Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock with Spectrum Noir Black alcohol proof ink and I colored them with my Illustrator markers.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
For the sky background I used the My Favorite Things Stitched Rounded Rectangle dies to die cut some Yupo paper. I created my sky with alcohol inks in different shades of purples and pinks.<br />
I then combined the Stitched Rounded Rectangle dies with the Stitched Snow Drifts and Hills, also by My Favorite Things, to create a hill. I added some shading to it with Spectrum Noir Harmony Ink in the color Oasis and my Studio Katia Blending Brushes.<br />
<br />

<br />
For the card base I die cut some watercolor cardstock with the Mama Elephant Cloud Nine dies. I used Ranger White Matte Texture Paste and the My Favorite Things Pine Tree Forest Stencil to create a white on white textured background. It is hard to see in the pictures, but the effect in real life is really great!<br />
I raised the focal panel over my background with some foam tape, for added dimension.<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I created the sentiment with the Lawn Fawn Fa La La Script die and Heffy Doodle Hint of Mint cardstock. I also decorated the card front with some snowflakes - I couldn't find the actual dies I used online, but I linked to similar ones in the supply list down below. </div>
I mounted everything on a top-folding A2 card base and, as a finishing touch, I added Glossy Accents to the sentiment die cut.<br />

<br />
Hi everyone! Today I am back with a Speed Coloring video of the new Comunione e Cresima stamps by Impronte d'Autore (First Communion and Confirmation). The images were stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink and embossed with clear embossing Powder. For the coloring I chose my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and, once the coloring was over, I die cut everything with the coordinating dies.<br />
<br />
Here is the speed coloring video for you, I hope you like it!<br />

Hi everyone! Today I am absolutely thrilled to share some inspiration with the new Spellbinders/FSJ release! The new products are really amazing and I had a blast creating with them - I have three cards and a video tutorial for you today! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The first two cards were created with the<b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/y9mxpp" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> Kindness Matters Kit</a></b> - this kit includes three rubber stamps, one stencil and four pre-kitted cards, so that you can get creative right away! The stamps and the stencil are also available to be purchased individually, but the kit is really great value! </div>

For my first card I used the <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/onkepk" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Kindness is Cool</a></b> stamp set and the<b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/dg50nm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> Cascading Hearts Die</a></b> (not included in the kit). I blended my FSJ inks in the color Bubble Gum and Watermelon Fusion over the die cut front panel.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I then created a background where I blended my FSJ ink in the color Cool Pool and did a little bit of tone on tone stamping with the large heart in the Kindness is Cool stamp set. This created a subtle patterned paper effect.</div>

<br />
I stamped and colored the Koala Bear and the Heart in the Kindness is Cool stamp set and raised them over my background with some foam squares.<br />
I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder over some black cardstock and that finished off my first card.<br />

For my second card I used the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/l9d0pg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><b>Sweet Birthday Wishes </b></a>and <a href="https://ldli.co/e/xz3ep4" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><b>Folk Blossom Stamps</b></a> from the Kindness Matters Kit.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For the card base, I did some dry embossing using the fun <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/zke191" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Birthday Bash</a></b> embossing folder. This adds texture and detail, without taking too much attention away from the main elements of the card.</div>
I then created the focal panel by doing some ombré stamping with the Folk Blossom stamp and my FSJ inks. I used the colors Summer Days and Lemon Drop and after that I die cut the panel with the <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/y9medd" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Nested Guilded Rectangle</a> </b>dies.<br />

I raised the cake with some foam squares and then created a sentiment banner out of white cardstock. I stamped the sentiment Let's Celebrate from the Sweet Birthday wishes stamp set with FSJ Cranberry Bliss ink and glued that to my card using again some foam squares.<br />

My third and final card for today features the oh, so cute <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/p67nr4" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Baby Farm Animals </a></b>stamp set. This is again a set of foam mounted rubber stamps and <i>I love it</i>!. It is not included in the Kit, but part of the January Release by Spellbinders/FSJ. <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/r06yol" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Coordinating die</a></b>s are also available for this set. </div>

I could not stay away from creating a scene card with this set, and I did it with the help of the Garden Fence die. It was the perfect complement to my images and I can see myself using it quite a bit in the coming Spring season! I die cut the fence from some smooth white cardstock and blended Lemon Drop and Summer Days inks on top, creating a gradient effect.</div>

For the card background I die cut some more white cardstock with the rectangle die in the Cascading Hearts set. I blended Turbo Teal in the sky area and Sweet Pear where I wanted my grass to be. I added some sparkly droplets using Sparkle Silk - <i>so </i>pretty!<br />

I colored the images from the Baby Farm Animals set with Illustrator markers and arranged them on my card base. I stamped the sentiment Enjoy the Little Things (so precious) and that finished off my third card for today.<br />
<br />
If you are interested, here is a video tutorial for you, showing how I created these three cards with the products from the Spellbinders/FSJ Kindness Matters Kit and January 2020 Release. Don't forget to let me know which card is your favorite!<br />

Hi everyone! Today I am back to share with you a card I created with the Scrapbook.com <a href="https://ldli.co/e/2y13kz" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">For Australia SVG File bundle</a>. I think we are all aware of the awful devastation that fires are causing to people and wildlife in Australia. <b>Scrapbook.com has decided to help out by releasing this bundle and they will be donating 100% of the proceeds to the Australian Red Cross. </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I think this is a wonderful initiative and today I am helping to spread out the news with this card and a video tutorial. </div>

<br />
To start off, I cut some Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock with some of the files in the For Australia bundle. I colored the Koala Bear and the inside portion of the sentiment with Illustrator Markers.<br />
For the sentiment outline, I did some ink blending with Distress Oxide in Vintage photo and my <a href="https://ldli.co/e/mkz3pd" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><b>Scrapbook.com Blending Brushes</b>.</a><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I then used the <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/51946p" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Heffy Doodle Clover Frames dies</a></b> to add a stitched detail to my card front and added a leaf pattern to the card front with the <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/3ld37j" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Heffy Doodle Fancy Foliage stencil</a></b> and Distress Oxide in Peeled Paint.<br />

Hi everyone! Today I am back with an all-occasion card featuring the <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/9knrrz" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Spellbinders/FSJ Stamp of the Month Kit! </a></b>This is a monthly subscription kit available on the Spellbinders store - each month you will receive a different set of mounted rubber stamps. The quality is great and the price is really competitive! If you are interested, you can check out the January 2020 Kit here.</div>

<br />
For my card today I created a custom patterned paper effect by stamping one of the images in the Hugs Enclosed stamp set on some Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock. I stamped the image multiple times and at random orientations and colored them with Illustrator markers. The panel had been previously die cut with the rectangle die in the<b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/7zkqq9" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> FSJ Cascading Hearts die set</a></b>.<br />
<br />

<br />
I then moved on and used the <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/kzo779" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Circle Around dies</a></b> to cut some vellum and I heat embossed my sentiment over this panel using black embossing powder. I also stamped, colored and cut a few more images from the Hugs Enclosed stamp set and used them to decorate my vellum die cut.<br />

Hi everyone! Today I am really thrilled to be sharing this card as a guest designer for <a href="https://www.papernestdolls.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Paper Nest Dolls</a>! In case you are not familiar with this brand, they produce the cutest rubber stamps - the quality is superb! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
For my card today I used the <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/y97ggx" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Gingerbread House set</a>, </b>which I <i>absolutely </i>adore! I didn't get around to using it before Christmas, so I used a color palette that would work for a winter card and, I feel, for a Valentine's day card too! </div>

I started by stamping the Gingerbread House on some Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock with Spectrum Noir Finesse Black Ink. I colored it with my Illustrator markers and fussy cut it with my scissors. I also added some highlights with a white Gelly Roll pen.</div>

<br />
For my card background I started by die cutting some Bristol Smooth cardstock with the Mama Elephant Cloud Nine dies. I added some ink blending with my Studio Katia Blending Brushes and Spectrum Noir Harmony Inks in Plum Jam, Fuchsia and Pink Tulip. These are water reactive dye inks and the colors are super bright!<br />
To add some shine to the background, I spritzed it with a solution of water and Perfect Pearls that I keep in a mini mister. The effect is subtle yet really pretty!<br />
<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For the sentiment I used the Mama Elephant Made with Love die, and I trimmed the top portion of my die cut, so that I could obtain the greeting <i>With Love.</i> I glued everything to a top-folding A2 card base, cut to 4 1/4 by 11 inches and score at 5 1/2 inches, and that finished my card for today. </div>

<br>
Hi everyone! It's Laura here and today I am back with a fun Happy New Year card and a step by step video tutorial showing how to create it!<br>
The card combines several products from the ModaScrap range, which I think work really perfectly together! For my card base I used one of the papers from the The Icy Winter Season 6x6” paper pad and I trimmed it down to 4.25x5.5”.<br>
<br>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOXrf7gdKY3trbCjkdjuQFC7FIPzLSAoq72tXJo4Sz0KWcYYLRpe2VOJdv0uwpwnV7F4roT4qgti7Wph2Zj0oOMLYszVeHAhFLYXGkA50NZKU5N_MgdofFDbYyno0P7seXyqi48mpDQYc/s1600/20191215_180853.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOXrf7gdKY3trbCjkdjuQFC7FIPzLSAoq72tXJo4Sz0KWcYYLRpe2VOJdv0uwpwnV7F4roT4qgti7Wph2Zj0oOMLYszVeHAhFLYXGkA50NZKU5N_MgdofFDbYyno0P7seXyqi48mpDQYc/s640/20191215_180853.JPG" width="640"></a></div>
<br>
Next, I created another rectangular panel with the Dashing Rectangles dies. I first used the Fiocco di Neve stamp set to heat emboss some snowflakes with clear embossing powder. I then did some ink blending with Distress Oxides in the colors Tumbled Glass, Stormy Sky and Faded Jeans.<br>
<br>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpjA8W6p9Xt3rncSZC3-RnSjKEXhn02lQY4rYIQ7ADKwj99LN4fFWIfsfJip4Oi1h54X4IUYKVvlLuz1mZct9Q2iK_bPmjSAqZ0iajwJwL_M7cwEpdK7fwz95WyqLOoETDKFu_bcUQJvg/s1600/20191215_180936.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpjA8W6p9Xt3rncSZC3-RnSjKEXhn02lQY4rYIQ7ADKwj99LN4fFWIfsfJip4Oi1h54X4IUYKVvlLuz1mZct9Q2iK_bPmjSAqZ0iajwJwL_M7cwEpdK7fwz95WyqLOoETDKFu_bcUQJvg/s640/20191215_180936.JPG" width="640"></a></div>
<br>
The focal image for my card is the adorable bear from the Unconventional Xmas stamp set. I stamped it with alcohol proof black ink and colored it with my Spectrum Noir markers. I then die cut the image with the coordinating dies.<br>
<br>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgo8R6wVYXgu8vFcrZN22PqP1-vNzoFkUCILwnQ2VQUy3Wi5bT4McQkYXIK2yWk25exTRDV8VuWpcwqWloHj31TU-u1GzPRRn0qRQywAGgHnvrTx9V9mZm6wor9r5pp_znIiVyIUmrPwKo/s1600/20191215_184302.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgo8R6wVYXgu8vFcrZN22PqP1-vNzoFkUCILwnQ2VQUy3Wi5bT4McQkYXIK2yWk25exTRDV8VuWpcwqWloHj31TU-u1GzPRRn0qRQywAGgHnvrTx9V9mZm6wor9r5pp_znIiVyIUmrPwKo/s640/20191215_184302.JPG" width="640"></a></div>
<br>
For my sentiment I used the Funny Alphabet die and I also created a banner using the Banner dies. I cut the letters to form the greeting Happy 2020 from white cardstock and shaded the numbers 2020 with Distress Oxides in Stormy Sky and Faded Jeans.<br>
I also used the Big Snowflake die to create a focal point for my image.<br>
<br>

<br>
<br>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<br>
I glued everything to my card base and, as a finishing touch, I coated the sentiment with a Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay pen first and then with Glossy Accents.<br>
<br>

Hi everyone! Today I am back with a winter card I created with products by LDRS Creative and a video showing how to create it! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The main image in this card comes from the<b> Beary Great Day stamp set (<a href="https://ldli.co/e/jddmd9" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LDRS </a>| <a href="https://ldli.co/e/y9906x" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">SBK</a>)</b>, and it was a lot of fun to stretch my supplies and use this Spring/Fall themed stamp set on a Winter card!</div>

<br>
Hi everyone! It's <a href="https://abitofmycrafts.blogspot.com/">Laura</a> here and today I am back with a Winter shaker card featuring the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/l99741">Ponsettia Border</a> and the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/1yy675">Holiday Village</a> stamp set. At the end of this post, you will also find a video tutorial, showing how I made it.<br>
<br>
For the window of my shaker I used the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/l99742">Darling Ribbon & Dotted Frames Dies</a>. I also used the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/e00n3l">Simple Dotted Borders</a> on the cardstock panel that I die cut out of the center to create a hill.<br>
<br>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br>
<br>
I blended Spectrum Noir Silver Midas ink on the hill and I used Rose Gold and Pink Lace on the shaker background. These are metallic pigment inks that will add a shiny finish to my card.<br>
To fill up my shaker I used a mix of Studio Katia embellishments: I used <a href="https://ldli.co/e/xzz6kz">Frost Glitter</a>, <a href="https://ldli.co/e/1yy67q">Sparkle Glitter</a>, <a href="https://ldli.co/e/dggpzk">Silver Polka Sequins</a>, <a href="https://ldli.co/e/zkkqnp">Crystal Clear Confetti</a> and <a href="https://ldli.co/e/9kk53n">Majestic Confetti</a>.<br>
As I mentioned, the images I used are from the Poinsettia Border and Holiday Village stamp sets. I colored them with my Spectrum Noir Illustrator Markers and die cut them with the coordinating dies.<br>

<br>
For my sentiment I used the banner die in the Darling Ribbon&Frames dies. I stamped one of the greetings in the Holiday Village stamp set with Silver Midas ink and blended the edges with Pink Lace Midas Ink.<br>

Hi everyone! Today I am back with a clean and simple card I created with the <a href="https://ldli.co/e/qgojml" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><b>Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System</b> </a>and the <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/3lxg9d" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month</a>!</b><br />
<br />
The Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month is a monthly subscription kit that you can get on the Spellbinders store. Spellbinders offers a number of different subscription kits, you can find more information<a href="http://shrsl.com/1olfg" target="_blank"> on this pag</a>e. They are all great value!<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
For my card today I decided to combine foiling and dry embossing. You can actually use your Glimmer Hot Foil plates to create beautiful engraved effects on your cardstock.<br />
<br />
I went for a white on white look for my card base and embossed panel. I then added a foiled strip that I created with the supplies included in the kit. For my sentiment I used plates from<b> <a href="https://ldli.co/e/mkj0eo" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">a past Glimmer Hot Foil kit</a></b>. It is still available on the Spellbinders store, if you are interested!<br />
<br />

For my card today I used exactly the Knit Picky Fall paper pad, but used it on a Christmas card. The green, pink and teal papers make up the perfect Christmas color palette!<br />

<br />
For the card background I die cut two of the designs with the Lawn Fawn Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables and the Small Stitched Rectangle Stackables dies.<br />

<br />
I then stamped and colored images from the Yeti or Not and Ready Set Snow stamp sets and glued them to my card base. I used a white gel pen to add some highlights and the effect of a snowfall inside the globe.<br />

<br />
I created some hanging ornaments with the Lawn Fawn Winter Tiny Tags dies. I layered some stitched circles on the tags and stamped some Christmas Presents to embellish them a bit more!<br />
<br />

Hi everyone! Today I am back with my second post as a guest designer for Waffle Flower Crafts! This time I used the <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/on60qq" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Secret Admirer</a></b> and<b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/l9knqo" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> Sending Love</a></b> stamp sets, which work really perfectly together! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The sets can be purchased individually, in a stamp and die combo (and they come in storage pockets this way) or as part of the <b><a href="https://ldli.co/e/r0e5gr" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Whimsical Bundle</a></b>. All the options are linked at the end of this post.</div>

I created a mini envelope out of some watercolor cardstock using my WeR Memory Keepers mini score board. The board has a table with sizes for your envelopes on the back as well as score and guide lines that will help you create your own envelope.<br />
Mine measures 3 1/4 inches, and the mini card inside is 3 1/8 by 3 1/8 inches.<br />
<br />
I did some masked ink blending on the back of the envelope and on the mini card using Spectrum Noir Harmony Ink Winter Rose and added some droplets for some extra interest.<br />

<br />
I stamped and colored images from the Waffle Flower Secret Admirer and Sending Love stamp sets and used them to decorate both the mini envelope and the card. I am obsessed about how cute this turned out!<br />
<br />
I did record a video for this project, but you will have to bare with me a little...This time is somewhat busy (as I imagine it is for you all) so I am not 100% sure when I will be able to edit and upload it on my YouTube channel. But I promise I will!<br />
<br />
In the meantime I hope you enjoyed this quick post featuring products from the new Waffle Flower release!<br />
Thank you all so much for stopping by and have a great day!<br />

Hi everyone! Today I am back with a frameless vellum shaker card and a video sharing how to make it! The card was inspired by my friend Ilda, from <a href="https://www.ilovedoingallthingscrafty.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">I Love Doing All Things Craft</a>y, who recently made some really cute frameless shakers with acetate instead of vellum.<br />
<br />
<br />
For the card background I did some ink blending on an A2 panel of watercolor cardstock. I used Spectrum Noir Harmony Inks in the colors Fuchsia, Winter Rose and Plum Jam and my<b> Studio Katia Blending Brushes (<a href="https://ldli.co/e/n7ne3m" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">SK </a>| <a href="https://ldli.co/e/6d12yl" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">EH</a>)</b>. I also added a stenciled pattern with the<b> Heart-fetti stencil (<a href="https://ldli.co/e/n7nemm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">SK </a>| <a href="https://ldli.co/e/6d12rl" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">EH</a>) </b>and my Midas gold pigment ink.<br />
<br />

I created the shaker pocket out of some vellum and filled it with <b>Studio Katia Frost Glitter (<a href="https://ldli.co/e/kz957m" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">SK</a> | <a href="https://ldli.co/e/7zdjqq" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">EH</a>)</b> and a mix of pink and clear sequins.

<br />
For the sentiment I used one of the stamps from the Kobi's Hugs and Kisses stamp set and stamped the greeting <em>all my</em> on a strip of gray cardstock. I used again Midas gold pigment ink and I also blended the same ink on my die cut word <em>love</em>. This was obtained with one of the dies in the <b>Spring Bouquet (<a href="https://ldli.co/e/zkld5z" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">SK </a>| <a href="https://ldli.co/e/9k9qr4" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">EH</a>)</b> die set.<br />
