Artist Inspired Rustic Rainbow Card with Simon Hurley create.

There is a fabulous new release from Simon Hurley create. and Ranger Ink today! I'm using new stamps on my card today that were gifted from Ranger Ink. I just love this sweet artist bat from the Inspired stamp set. I also used the new Brushstrokes background stamp to create a rustic rainbow background. You can watch the short video down below how I created my background!

My adorable bat image was stamped with an archival ink pad and watercolored with Simon Hurley create. ink. I really wanted the background to be star of the show and I hope you like the colors I chose for my rustic rainbow. Let me know what you shop from the new release!

Nativity Play Slimline Card with Kindred Stamps

Happy Fandom Friday (night)! I wanted to show how I colored in these adorable characters from the new Kindred Stamps Nativity Plan set so the bulk of today's video is coloring. I also walk you through how I created a quick and easy Stage scene on a slimline card. It's been so long since I've made a slimline card, I even forgot the dimensions! But I think it turned out super cute, even if my angel takes up too much space and hides some of the characters.

Make sure to head over to my Instagram to see more cards I made with this new stamp set! I do show them real quick in my video, but you can see lots of photos of three other cards that I made for the release. In case you want to know what I used in those cards, I have a supply list you can find here. Let me know what you like from the new release in the comments!

Holiday Greetings Doily Tree with Papertrey Ink

The Doily Trees from Papertrey Ink are so dang cute! I used the March 2020 SheetLoad of Cards Sketch as inspiration for the layout and followed the card sketch using the Holiday 6x8 paper pad from Scrapbook.com. I also die cut the base part of my tree from the same paper pack. I stamped my images from the Doily Trees set with different Distress Ink colors.

Before adding my patterned paper, I distressed the edges with Tea Dye and used the same color to add some distress to the doily cutout. The stamped images and sentiment have coordinating dies so I cut those out as well, then assembled my tree together. Once I added everything to my card base, I added some Pops of Color in Dusty Rose and Gold Glitter for some extra shine.

I think this set might be one of my favorites from the latest release that was gifted to me from Papertrey Ink! I think the doily trees are just the cutest.

Mice Day Box Card with The Sassy Club

Okay, I know it's Wednesday afternoon and I'm jutting my Sassy Sunday card up... It's been a heck of a few days trying to get back into the swing of things from traveling last week for work. I just cannot seem to catch up! I'm hoping over the next few days and next week, I'll get back to my usual posting schedule but for now, I'm just trying to hold on!

The card I'm sharing today is my card for last Friday's episode of Craft Roulette. I made the box card from pink cardstock and blue gingham paper from my stash. I added my sentiment on a banner to the front of the box card because I didn't want to cover up too much of the pretty gingham paper on the front of the box.

My adorable Sassy images are from Sew Mice (or So Mice) and I stamped and colored them in with alcohol markers. I used my Scan N Cut to cut them out and did a little bit more cutting in between areas like, the mice tails or ribbon around the dress. For the parameter of jewelry, I added some pearls around the card - I should have colored them to be teal-ish like the mice find in the movie!

Looking forward to sharing more with you the rest of the month! Let me know which Sassy Club product you'd like to see for a future Sassy Sunday post in the comments.

Colorful Ornament Card with Scrapbook.com

I have a colorful card to share with you today featuring Scrapbook.com Exclusives! I did lots of die cutting and was inspired by the colors of the Gingerbread Paper Pad when I picked my paper and inks for stenciling. I started with stenciling the Small Checkered Stencil with Distress Oxides, added some splatter and used the the Nested A2 rectangles to do some panel die cutting.

I layered together the panels on my card base and then added the tree needles, ornaments and a pink bow! After they were all adhered down, I added some final touches of Pops of Color for some extra shine. This Mini Ornament die set is a freebie at the time of posting this blog post, so make sure to shop while you can get it for free! Link is below in the supply list.
