Handmade Paper Hugs

  Hi Rammy's, today I'm sharing a mini slimline card with the adorable Fairy Party stamp.  Copics used E04, E11, E21, E00, E000 R85, R83, R81 100, C7, C5 BV08, BV04, BV02 E51, E53, E55 E40, E42, E43, E44 E30, E23, E25 YR24, Y17, Y08, Y11 W2 + Colorless blender YG09, YG05, YG01 G46, G43, YG61 RV34 flower garland YG41 wings  BG10 background  The happy birthday sentiment is from Poppystamps Happy birthday stitched tag and I layered lots of embossing powder on there.  I first heat embossed 2 layers of WOW! white, then 1 layer of WOW! Metalline Red, next 1 layer of WOW! Pink Fizz and finally 1 layer of Recollections Vintage Pink.  It didn't need sequins and gems in my opinion, but my printer made a boo-boo and I needed to cover that.  *Ad / reklame* Since I'm on the design team.  Thanks so much for stopping by! Happy crafting.  Tina X

  Hello everyone! Is she a fall fairy? Or is she a spring fairy? I think she could be both! What do you think? Regardless, she's adorable. She is a Make it Crafty digital stamp and I popped her up so she's sitting on some green flower medow (paper from Memory Box). I dotted a bit of pixie dust onto the background and stamped a sentiment from The Greeting Farm.

Happy new year, you guys!! Today we're kicking off the first challenge of the year over at AAA Birthday blog and the first theme of the year is..... 2 favorite colors. Also, we're having a micro hop with our sister challenge blog AAA Cards between the 9th and 22nd January, so don't forget to check out the details . So the slimline format might be surprising to you, but the colors wont be. Right? I mean, pink and purple - everyone knows they're my favorite.  The girl is a digital stamp from Krista Leigh Smith and I just love the her expression. When I saw the image I felt like she was shaking her head in disbelief. I knew that I wanted to pair her with those sentiments - What the what now?! You're THAT old?! No WAY?! 😆 I colored her with Copics some time during the fall and fuzzy cut the image. Copics used: Skin: E13, E11, E21, E00 + R32 Lips: RV09, RV04 Make-up: RV95, RV11 Blouse: RV69, RV66, RV55, RV52 Hair: E59, E25, E33 Pants: W3, W3, W1, W0 The background was ...

  Hey everyone! Can you believe it's December 😱 Honestly this year has flown by just as fast as 2020, in my opinion. But! Before we're ready to end the year we have one more challenge for you this year at AAA Birthday Blog , and our theme for the month of December is - Easel card!  Easel cards are pre-bent to stand up and show off their beauty. Easel cards can easily be made without dies (lots of tutorials on YouTube), but this time I chose to use the Poppystamps Adriana pop up easel set. It has a beautiful leafe ornament frame and a shaped base. I die cut the base from white cardstock and the base background from patterned paper (from a really old Joy! Creations pad). Before die cutting the ornament frame I covered my white cardstock with washi tape from Memory Box - Watercolor Forest Greenery. I find that using my bonefolder while layering it over really helps to smooth it out. The washi tape has holly, red berries and other winter greenery, but I believe holly, snow and de...

  Hey everyone! Today we're kicking off the September challenge at AAA Birthday and this months theme is - Not a card! I may have gone a bit overboard here, but I have had these dies for a loooong time and never used them. What's up with that, lol! So now was the time. I'm delighted to say most of the dies and stamps are from Danish brands. Dies and stamps used: Simple and Basic SBD008 wine bottle tag Simple and Basic SBD028 wine bottle tag add-on Simple and Basic SBD012 double tag Simple and Basic SBD055 Pocket tag builder Simple and Basic SBD055 Pocket tag builder add-on Simple and Basic SBD015 Tillykke Simple and Basic SBD005 Pierced Fishtail tags Gitte's eget design Glade hilsner Gitte's eget design Fantasy flower My favorite things Good time to wine My favorite things Party like a pirate The first set are wine bottle tags, and to one of them I used the pocket tag builder to add a pocket. It's meant to fit a gift card but you can also add a tiny note or sim...

Hello everyone! Can you believe it's July already? Well today we're kicking off the July challenge over at AAA Birthday Challenge blog and the theme this month is Use an embossing folder. For this card I was greatly inspired by a video I watched recently from Jaycee Gaspar - find it here . I was just playing around with different embossing folders and trying different things and although this is very dark and much different to my usual style I totally love the look! I used Memory Box Chrysanthemum Field 3D embossing folder. Obviously I used a black ink (Versafine Onyx Black) and applied all over the embossing folder which really made the flowers stand out. Using the technique from the video I tore the sides of the paper and decided to back it with a couple of layers of gold embossing powder (Hero Arts) and plattered on some diluted gold acrylic paint. The My favorite things Hooray die also received a couple of layers of embossing powder, as did the sentiment which is also MFT ...

  Hey everyone! Once again I searched through my stash of already colored images for cards for the Danish Operation write home. I found 3 different images - all colored in 3 copies and cut with circle dies. So I found a sketch (an older MFT sketch from their  archive ) to fit them all. I cut all the pieces and stamped all the sentiments at once which helped ease the process. As you can tell from the title this is the 2nd card I'm sharing, so feel free to take a look at the first one as well. These feature a Jade Dragonne digital image. Jade Dragonne images are (currently) free for download to color on DeviantArt. Other products used: Gitte's eget design Mix & Match - Du (sentiment means "You are speciel") My favorite things Pierced circle stax Memory Box Cottage Meadow paper  Unbranded patterned paper Ranger Dylusions spray  Copics used: Skin: E13, E11, E00, E000 + R32 Lips: RV17, RV13 Hair: E21, E23, E25, E59 Eyes: G14, YG06, YG01 Peony: RV69, RV66, RV55 + YG17,...

  Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing a card to welcome my new niece. I actually bought the Stamping Bella Big sister when it was quite new (summer 2019) and back then I didn't know if my sister would ever have more kids. You see, like me, she had help conceiving with her first born. Luckily they didn't need help this time around and now she's finally here 😍 I Copic colored the image and die cut using My favorite things Linked chain oval which I just love. Copics used: E13, E11, E21, E00 + RV13 / E04, E11, E21, E00 YR21, E97, E99, E35 R85, R83, R81 RV66, RV55, RV52 W5, W3, W1 G94, G24, G40 I used Memory Box patterned paper for the background and small Crealies tag and Memory Box glitter paper for the My favorite things Hearts entwined and sentiment shadow. The sentiment says congrats and the die is from Dixi Craft. The stamped sentiment is from By Lene. I rolled the (MFT) flowers myself and I'm pretty happy with how they turned out.   I hope you like my card. Thanks ...
