"Time Fries" Kids Meal Fandom with The Sassy Club

Hi, friends! I’m so excited to share today’s card—it’s a playful, fast-food-themed design made with The Sassy Club’s adorable dies and stamps. If you’re looking for a card that’s packed with personality and charm, this one will definitely bring smiles! To start, I cut strips of patterned paper from The Sassy Club’s McNugget 6x6 pad and adhered them to an A2 card base. This fun backdrop set the stage for my scene. 

Then, I got to work die-cutting all the pieces: the kids' meal box, nugget box, nuggets, and their quirky little faces from the Joyful, Neutrals, and Yellows paper pads from Scrapbook.com. Using Lumberjack Plaid, Wild Honey, and Mustard Seed Distress Inks, I darkened the edges of the red kids' meal box and yellow nugget box for extra dimension.

The nuggets were my favorite part to create! I cut them from brown cardstock and used Ohuhu markers along with distress inks to achieve that perfect golden-brown look. I added details to their eyes with markers and gave them a pop of personality with white gel pen highlights. The sentiment, embossed in white on red cardstock, added the perfect bold touch.

Once everything was ready, I assembled the card by gluing the kids' meal box to the base, popping up the nuggets in their box with foam adhesive, and adding the sentiment with the same technique. I stamped the remaining part of the sentiment on the inside of the card in black ink. This card was so much fun to make, and it’s a perfect way to show off the quirky cuteness of The Sassy Club’s dies. I hope it inspires you to create something fun, too!

Driving By Birthday Card with Kindred Stamps

Hi friends! Welcome back to my craft room and another Fandom Friday post. This week, I’m driving into the world of Kindred Stamps with the Vroom stamp set. Although it's currently out of stock, be sure to keep an eye on their website for restocks! For today’s card, I also used the Desert Scene Craft Die, Card Basics Die, Sentiment Strips Dies, and Desert Scene Layering Stencil to create a birthday card that’s sure to make anyone's day special.

The project started with coloring my race car and tow truck stamps. I used OLO markers to bring my images to life, focusing on vibrant tones and shading for depth. Adding yellow and orange flames gave the race car an extra fiery touch, while the tow truck showcased a rustic orange and teal combination for a weathered, dusty look. Cool grays added dimension to the wheels, windows, and exhaust for both characters. The result? A vibrant duo that’s ready to roll into a fun scene!

Next, I tackled the desert backdrop with ink blending. Using the Desert Scene Layering Stencil, I created a stunning landscape. Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide set the tone for a bright sky, while Rusty Hinge and Crackling Campfire Oxides built up the rugged mountain layers. A few die-cut cacti added dimension, perfectly framed by the Card Basics Die. The whole scene came together with careful layering and positioning, ensuring everything aligned seamlessly.

Finally, I assembled the card, adding foam adhesive for depth and stamping the sentiment, “Driving by to say… Happy Birthday!” This thoughtful touch tied everything together. I love how this card celebrates this vehicular fandom while showcasing fun crafting techniques. Let me know in the comments what fandoms you'd like me to explore next for Fandom Friday! Until next time, happy crafting!

Day Takes Flight BetterPress Butterflies with Spellbinders

Happy New Year, crafty friends! Today, I’m thrilled to share a card I made using the fabulous Spellbinders January 2025 Clubs. These kits are packed with creative possibilities, and I had so much fun experimenting with the BetterPress, Embossing Folder, and Clear Stamp Set. Let me walk you through the steps for this vibrant butterfly-themed card.

I started by stamping the butterfly BetterPress plates onto porcelain cotton cardstock using Monarch Versafine Clair ink. The crisp details were stunning! To add pops of color, I used the Caboodle bonus item to stencil the butterflies with Simon Hurley create. inks in Guppy, Love Struck, Game Over, and Crown Me. Next, I foiled the sentiment in matte gold onto Sugarplum cardstock—this shimmer against the purple is chef’s kiss! I cut out the butterflies and sentiment with the coordinating dies to keep everything neat and polished.

For the background, I embossed a 4" x 5 ¼" piece of white cardstock using the embossing folder, then added splatters of Wilted Violet Distress Spritz for extra texture. After gluing the background to an A2 card base, I adhered the smaller butterfly directly to the card and used foam adhesive for the large butterfly and sentiment to give the design some dimension. A sprinkling of gold gems completed the card with a touch of sparkle.

If you’d like to see these supplies in action and get more inspiration, check out the replay of my livestream! I crafted alongside other amazing Spellbinders influencers, who showcased the Small Die of the Month and a few other club kits.
