I used the cute Woof Pack stamps from My Favorite Things, pattern papers and embossing folder from Stampin’ Up and a die from Lawn Fawn to create 2 Missing You cards with a masculine style.
Using a Peony stamp set from Recollections from Michael’s I created three different cards each with a different technique. In my video I’ll show you some easy techniques for ink blending with masking, coloring with pencils on dark cardstock and ink smooshing.
I recently was able to try out The Glaminator machine from Xyron. This machine can do hot and cold laminating as well as add foil to your paper crafting projects.
I filmed a video on how the machine works with some tips and tricks, card samples and easy projects. Click here to watch my video on Youtube or check it out below.
I used to love Sweet November rubber stamps but they stopped making them a few years ago. But I recently found out they are offering digital stamps over at 7 Kids Crafts! I got two new images Gully the Seagull and Talise the Mermaid, so cute! I used them on a card with a cool colored pencil and blender pen technique I learned from Simon Hurley.
I made 3 different cards using the Christmas is Coming stamp set and dies from Hello Bluebird. I used a different coloring technique for each one. This is a long one so grab a cup of something warm and sit back and enjoy!
There’s so many cool things you can do with stencils! I recently received some great stencils from Stencil Revolution and decided to try a bunch of different techniques with them.
