Hey there, pals! I recently stumbled upon a charming feline at Newton’s Nook. I’ve owned this stamp for quite some time and was ecstatic to finally put it to use. Take a moment to examine the background, which was crafted using a foam stamp from the 3D skull embossing folder. A bit of basic Copic coloring brings the main image to life, along with a couple of uncomplicated sentiments. Enjoy!
Good evening, dear friends! What an irresistible feline I stumbled upon at Twist Toon’s today. I simply couldn’t resist bringing her home. This kitty is the epitome of generosity; her affectionate nature is heartwarming. She even came bearing a Christmas present for her little companion.
Here’s the process I used for this slightly twisted Christmas card. First, I downloaded the charming image from Twist Toon and transferred it to Cricut. With the help of a Copic fine liner in the machine, I had it beautifully sketch the image on Copic paper. Once the drawing was complete, I lovingly colored it with Copics and carefully cut it out using the Scan and Cut tool. As for the background, it’s a coloring image I acquired from an Etsy store some time ago, though regrettably, the name escapes my memory. To achieve a touch of realistic messiness that complements the scruffy appearance of our main kitty, I employed Paint 3D for coloring. Lastly, I adorned the creation with layered frames, crafting it into a splendid Christmas card. I hope you enjoy this heartfelt creation!
Hello everyone, and happy Saturday! I wanted to share my entry for this week’s Craft Roulette Challenge. The challenge required us to use 3 tags, incorporate masking techniques, use rose garden colors, and include a May element. I decided to use Miss Ink Stamps’ Alice in Wonderland series and colored the sky with distress oxide inks. For the rest of the design, I used Copics and Ink on 3 ink to create a hand-drawn look. To complete the project, I mounted the three tags on a mini-slimline, accordion-folded base. I hope you like it!
Happy Saturday, everyone! I have another fun-fold card for you today. Can’t you just picture this little blue bird in the middle of a flowering field? This was actually not hard to make once I decided on a layout.
Supplies used:
Simple Stories Farmhouse Summer paper pack
Tim Holtz Ideology Christmas 2021 (pink woodgrain)
Stampersanonymous/Sizzix Crazy Birds & Crazy Things stamps/dies.
Cut your paper to 12″x6″, score, and cut the bottom border with the edge die. Stitch the bottom of the card with a zig-zag stitch and white thread. Stamp and color your bird and flowers. Use sentiments from the paper pack to create a “floor” for the bird to stand on. Add a small strip of pink wood grain paper below the sentiment strip. Add the bird & flowers. And…. you are ALL done. Enjoy!
Happy weekend, crafters! I was playing along last night with Craft Roulette and here is my card following the four parameters: matchbook, flowering field, bird, wood grain. This was actually a fast & easy card to make. I used Tim Holtz collage paper and adhered it to some white card stock using Distress collage medium. I added some strips of washi tape for interest. I embossed a matching red paper frame with a wood embossing folder and mounted everything to a pink card frame scored to allow the small matchbook “lip” on the bottom. Stay creative!
Happy Tuesday, everyone. My first duch door card. Woah! Yes, it was one of the parameters from Craft Roulette last Friday. The background paper is from Tim Holtz’s Abandoned 8×8 pad. The inky background was down with watercolor paper 120lb Arteza with Distress Oxide Spray in Crackling Campfire, Black Soot, and Mustard Seed. The background was embellished with numbers using Ranger’s transparent matte texture paste, a stencil, and a spider web from Stampersanonymous’ Halloween cutouts (CMS139). The witch, cauldron, and webs were cut using black cardstock, and Tim Holtz Sizzix dies (Frightful Things, Mini Halloween Things, Toil and Trouble). Gold paint was added to the witch to make her glow. My sentiment came from the book The Science Behind Harry Potter. Enjoy!
Happy Tuesday, Everyone! I do like to play online games a bit every week. This creation is a take on Randy Jade from the game Dialtown. The pattern is my own & I used thread from my stash. Randy’s head is an old Nokia cell phone; all the characters in the game have phones for heads. Randy has had bad luck, was evicted from his apartment, and now lives in the dumpster.

This card was a fast and easy card to make. Lawn Fawn’s Special Delivery and two heart stamps from other Lawn Fawn products (I’m afraid I don’t remember them) paired with Gina K’s wreath builder. Get out some black & red ink and stamp away. This is a great card when you need something in a pinch and don’t have much time.
