A Big Hello

This card was made with a hodgepodge of supplies and was really a result of me trying out new things. It’s a combination of a first attempt at alcohol inks and trying to use some of the stickers and embellishments I buy, but never seem to use LOL!

That being said, it was so fun to just pull out some old supplies and make them work with something new.

To start, I used some Ranger alcohol inks on HP photo paper. Which I then used to die cut the “Hello”. At first I was not happy with it at all, and was going to throw it away, but once it dried I really liked it.

I went on to use black Recollections cardstock and a Lil Inker Designs Quilted Swirl Stitched background die for the main panel.

As for the embellishments, I believe they were all from Dollar Tree. Once I added the butterfly, I thought the card needed something else, so in came the pearls.

In the end, I got a pretty fun card in a style I don’t typically do.

Congrats!

This card was quick and easy thanks to a new embossing folder I picked up at JoAnn Fabrics. The Parklane embossing folders are pretty awesome, including the grad caps, which is perfect for any graduation card.

I paired the white embossed cardstock with a “Congrats Grad” svg file from Etsy I cut out using my Scan ‘N Cut, from gold glitter cardstock.

To add a little something else, I trimmed down the sides of the white cardstock and layered it onto a black A2 panel, adding the whole thing to a card base, and done!

Embossing folders and large sentiments are perfect for quick, but still super cute cards.

Thanks for stopping by!

Mother of Dragons

This card was heavily inspired by The Game of Thrones and what better time to use the Mother of Dragons then on a Mother’s day card.

The images used on this card are from the Kindred Stamps Heir to the Throne and Royal Throne stamp sets. I stamped them onto 65 lb. white Recollections cardstock and colored them with Spectrum Noir markers. For the main girl image, I separated her head and mirror stamped her body, and then popped up her head using some foam tape. That whole sentence sounds odd, but I suppose it’s fitting to the show Haha!

This card is massive, measuring in at 8.5x5.5” and containing two interactive elements: a pull tab and a Chibitronics light circuit.

The main panel was cut from 110 lb. black Recollections card stock and embossed using a Parklane brick embossing folder from JoAnn’s. The sentiment was cut using my Scan ‘N Cut and a file I created in Canvas.

Once the pieces were assembled, I added the images to the card front with one layer of thin foam tape and then added that to a white card base.

Dracarys!
