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! Today marks the beginning of the March challenge over at AAA Birthday challenge blog , and the theme this month is Under the sea. So get out your favorite sea critters - otters, turtles, whales etc. - or how about mystical creatures like mermaids. Sadly this month's challenge also marks my last project for the AAA DT, as I need to focus on me for a while. Although not in relevance to this challenge at all, I ask that you keep the people of Ukraine in your thoughts 🙏 Please consider donating This gorgeous image is a Make it Crafty digital stamp colored with Copics. I don't remember the colors used, but I'm guessing : Hair: R85, R83, RV11, RV10 Tail: B99, B97, BG49, BG13, BG15, BG01, YG0000 The background panel is an old alcohol ink panel i had laying around.  For sentiment I chose 2 Sentiments from Taylored Expressions Be a mermaid. I didn't have a "Have a mermazing birthday", so these will have to do. Oh, and by the way, they were white heat e...

  Hey everyone! Today we're kicking off the February challenge at AAA Birthday challenge blog and the theme is - Pattern. For my pattern I cut the Alex Syberia Summer Leaves cut file on my (brand new - YAY!) Silhouette Cameo from white cardstock. I backed that with a panel heat embossed with WOW! Lime Ricky embossing glitter. Then I stamped and Copic colored an image from My Favorite Things Picture Perfect, which is an older set but new to me.  Copic colors used: Sloth: E50, E51, E53 / E79, E74 / E29, E25, E23 / E44, E43, E41 / W9, W5 Tree: E59, E37, E34 Leaves + background: YG67, YG17, YG06, YG01, YG0000 My Polaroid dies are from Hello Bluebird and sadly do not completely fit the stamped images, BUT I colored a wider frame on the cardstock (Copic 100) to make it fit. To make the frame stand out a bit more, I cut a second frame, heat embossed it and then cut it in half diagonally and fit it to the back of the sloth.  Even for me this is enough glitter, and I love the bri...

  **Add** Hello everyone! I'm sharing another card made with a brand new svg cut file from the Alex Syberia Design February Release and don't forget that the Instagram hop where you can win a gift certificate to the Alex Syberia Design Etsy store is still going. So hop on over to Instagram to participate  here ! For my card today I cut the LoveYou and Modern heart svg files on my Silhouette machine. The large LOVE word I heat embossed with 2 layers of WOW! Metalline Red embossing powder and on top a layer of WOW! Pink Sorbet embossing powder. The base of the red darkens the glitter layer, as well as holds the glitter in place, which I really like. On this photo you can see the light reflect in the glitter and it's just gorgeous! Don't you think? I heat embossed the Modern heart with 3 layers of WOW! Perissa embossing powder, a favorite of mine. The extra layers really make a difference as the heart becomes more of an embellishment than "just" a die-cut. I adhe...

  **Add** Hello everyone! Today is the day to celebrate the Alex Syberia Design February Release and we're doing that with an Instagram hop where you can win a gift certificate to the Alex Syberia Design Etsy store. So hop on over to Instagram to participate here ! For my card today I cut the Love U svg file on my Silhouette machine, as well as the love word and shadow from the Love Sentimnts svg file. I then covered the cardbase with double sided adhesive and poured over WOW! Pink Sorbet embossing powder. I could have used my embossing ink, but I wanted to prevent the ink from wetting and warping my base cardstock. And it worked out great. I adhered the heart panel to the base and stamped my sentiemnts (from Simon says stamp Hey love). I left the love word white and heat embossed the shadow with 3 layers of WOW! Florida Sunset. I then adhered the word on top and popped it up with foam squares. There's lots of sparkle on this one and I really hope you like it! I know I do 😉 I ...

Hey everyone! Here's a cute, CAS miss you / love card using Krista Smith - Tattoo digital stamp. The hearts are My favorite things Love speech bubbles. I colored in the hearts and the speech bubbles I cut from pink glitter cardstock from Memory Box. Sentiment is from Pinkfresh Studio white heat embossed. As for the patterned paper I have absolutely no idea what brand it is, since it was a freebie in a Simon says stamp order a long time ago. Copics used: Skin: E13, E11, E21, E00 + R32 Lips: RV14, RV13 Eyes: E25, E23, E21 Hair: E37, E34, E30 Pink: R89, R85, R83, R81 White: W3, W1, W0 G43, G40 + B02, B00 Hope you like it! Thanks so much for stopping by. Stay safe, and happy crafting. Tina
