I used the cute House Cat stamps from My Favorite Things for a fun birthday card. I’ll show you some tips for working with white core cardstock to add distress and texture to your cards. Check out my video tutorial on my Youtube channel or watch it down below.
I created this fun Unicorn card with the Dragons and Unicorns stamp set from Hero Arts. For the starry background I ink blended on an embossing folder so the white stars still shine through. I used markers and inks from Spectrum Noir for my coloring and inking.
I’m back with another card using the new Harmony Opaque Pigment Ink Pads from Spectrum Noir. I created this cute bear card using the inks. I used a blending brush with Lemon Tonic and Honey Pot inks on a stencil from Stencil Revolution to create the honeycomb background. I heat embossed my sentiments and images from a W Plus 9 stamp set with Honey Pot and Jet Black Inks with clear powder.
I made this fun Harry Potter inspired card with stamps from Kindred Stamps and a cool unbranded castle die I found on Ebay. Hop on your broom and fly over to my Youtube channel for the card tutorial.
