Hi, friends! 😄 Today I’m sharing a Summer card featuring Lawn Fawn’s On The Beach Stamp Set and really fun dies to make your own beach scene.

First, I die cut and assembled the palm trees and hammock from the Hammock and Trees Die Cut Set from Lawn Fawn. Then, I created an ocean effect with Tumbled Glass and Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Inks. The Stitched Simple Wavy Borders Die Cut Set from Lawn Fawn is simply perfect for this!

Next, I stamped and colored images from the On the Beach Stamp Set. I love these cute critters and all the fun elements to combine them with.

I used the Sandy Beach Accents Die Cuts to create little inserts for the beach ball, drink and shells. Finally, I finished off this card with a Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pen and a coat of Tonic Nuvo Crystal Glaze.

That’s it for now! Thank you so much for stopping by. Sending big hugs! 💛

Hello, friends! Welcome to another card making video tutorial. Today I’m showing you how to do super smooth Distress Oxide Ink Blending with cheap make-up brushes and an adorable stamp set from Unity Stamp Company.

First, I stamped the adorable cake image from the Happy Birthday Stamp Set from Unity Stamp Company with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I also stamped and heat embossed a speech bubble from the Stackable Cuties Stamp Set from Mama Elephant. I didn’t heat emboss the cake until I finished Copic Coloring since embossing powder damages your alcohol markers. So make sure not to heat emboss your images before coloring them!

After covering up the colored cake with masking paper, I used six colors of Distress Oxide Ink to create a colorful background: Spun Sugar, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron, Cracked Pistachio, Tumbled Glass and Shaded Lilac. I also used the Medium Dots Stencil from Simon Says Stamp to add some polkadots to this background using the same colors of Distress Oxide Ink. I just applied them a little bit heavier to create contrast.

The brushes I used to do the ink blending are LIFE CHANGING! 😍 Lately I’ve been seeing these brushes in almost every single card making video tutorial so of course I had to give them a shot. I used super cheap, inexpensive make-up brushes from a Belgian shop called Action. I think I’ll be planning another visit to that shop soon to stock up on even more of these brushes since I love them so much! 😄

Finally, I adhered color coordinated sequins and added sparkly dots with Tonic Nuvo White Blizzard Glitter Drops. I also used a Spectrum Noir Shimmer Pen and a coat of Tonic Nuvo Crystal Glaze for extra shine and dimension.

That’s it for now! Thank you so much for stopping by. I’ll see you soon! 💕

Hi, friends! On Monday, my crafty friend Marika visited me. We made a card together and had so much fun. 😄 We decided to make a Springtime Shaker Card with Hello Bluebird Stamps and Dies along with two terrific stencils from My Favorite Things.

Make sure to watch the video below for tips and tricks on how to make this card.

First, I stamped and colored images from the Springtime and McGregor’s Garden Stamp Sets from Hello Bluebird. Like I mentioned in the video, my coloring technique is beginner friendly and super fun to do!

Next, I created a scene with the Mini Cloud Edges Stencil from My Favorite Things along with their Grassy Edges Stencil. Of course I used Distress Oxide Inks to do the blending. These inks are such a joy to work with! 😍

Afterwards, I made the frame for my shaker using a die cut from the Stitched Rectangles Die Cut Set from Lawn Fawn. This time I used Scotch Foam Mounting Tape to add dimension instead of Fun Foam and liquid adhesive. However, both ways work! Finally, I filled up the shaker with the Pink Lemonade Couture Mix from The Ton along with Sparkling Clear and Lime Sorbet Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.

Good morning, friends! Today I’m here with an adorable card featuring Lawn Fawn stamps and dies as well as a fun stencil from My Favorite Things. I’m also so excited to tell you more about a new-to-me online paper crafting store! 💛

Make sure to watch the video below for more information and a step by step tutorial.

I started out with the Mini Cloud Edges Stencil from My Favorite Things and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink to create a very realistic background. Then, I created a flower border using the Flower Border Die Cut from Lawn Fawn. I die cut the border once more out of white card stock to color the flowers in rainbow colors.

Next, I colored and die cut a few of my favorite images from the Butterfly Kisses Set from Lawn Fawn. Afterwards, I cut a piece of patterned paper from the Spring Fling Petite Paper Pack from Lawn Fawn and adhered it behind the cute scene.

Finally, I used a piece of vellum along with the Lawn Fawn Fancy Wavy Banners Die Cut Set and the Wavy Sayings Stamp Set to create a sentiment banner. I prepped my vellum with kitchen flour to remove any static-cling and for a beautiful, clean finish.
