Handmade Paper Hugs

  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 ...

Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing a custom made card for a graduate furniture woodworker. I printed the Lili of the valley Woodbench on Neenah, colored it with Copics and die cut it with a Simple and Basic Pierced rectangles die. Copics used: Clothes and tools: B99, B97, B95, B93, B91, W3, W1, W0 Skin: E04, E11, E00, E000 Hair: E41, E43 Shoes: W9, W7, W5  Workbench/toolbox/hammer: E47, E44, E43 Woodgrain/project: E23, E21 Floor: W3, W0 I wanted to incorporate a woodsy piece, so I used the Tim Holtz 3D Lumber embossing folder - I think it is SO cool! Gives such great dimension. I first lightly and a little splotchy inked up a panel with Ground espresso Oxide ink. I then applied the same ink to the embossing folder on the veiny side. Before running it through I spritzed with water to not break the cardstock, but I did it on the backside, to not ruin the coloration. I covered the base with patterned paper from Studio light. The Danish sentiment (Cong...

Hi there and welcome, Today I have this bright and joyful summer fun card to share. So, The daily marker 30 day challenge by Kathy Racoosin is over and I've commenced summer holidays with my family. But that doesn't mean there's no coloring. I often color with my daughter, and I love the special times we share! For this card I printed the Paper Shelter image Coconut on Neenah, colored it with my Copics and die cut with a My favorite things Elegant rectangle die. From pineapple patterned paper I die cut with a larger die from that same set. I backed it with a panel of pink cardstock. These flowers... Don't get me started. They are Joy! dies and my first ever rolled flowers. I thought the Sissix felt was wool. It wasn't! And they were practically impossible to roll. I almost gave up a couple of times, but in the end they came out looking alright. The leaves are MFT Fab foliage cut from white cardstock and colored with Copics. To finish off t...
