Mama Elephant - Wish Upon a Star

Hey, crafty peeps!

Today I am sharing a super simple, easy to make, slimline card using stamps from the Mama Elephant Wish Upon a Star stamp set.

The size of the card is 8.5 x 3.5 inches and I used the slimline dies from Trinity Stamps. I love that they have different slimline dies available. For the first layer, I used the Mustard Seed and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxides. The second layer is a scrapbook paper from Echo Paper and it is actually the back side of a 4x4 journaling cards sheet. The item number is BB172006, in case you were interested. I love patterned papers, especially if I can use them for a scene for a card.

Next, I cut white cardstock using the cloud die from the Trinity Stamp Scenic Border Die Set. I adhered it down using foam adhesive for some dimension.

I chose three little bunnies to stamp, color, and die cut using the coordinating dies. I also stamped and cut the cloud twice. Copic colors used are - W00, W0, W1, and W3 for the bunnies; Y00, Y13, Y15 for the stars; R00 for the blush and ears; and B000 for the little bird and the clouds (it's hard to see in the photos because of the light).

I then adhered everything with foam mount. I die cut an extra bunny with wings from white cardstock and sandwich a fishing line to have the cute bunny swing back and forth. Make sure to follow me on instagram and swipe all the way to the last frame to see the little bunny fly.

I hope you like today's card!!!

Heffy Doodle and Gerda Steiner Designs Collaboration

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle and Gerda Steiner Designs Collaboration Blog Hop! Design Team members from both companies are sharing inspiration using products from both companies! For this fun collaboration, I made a slimline birthday card. To begin, I stamped, colored, and cut images from Gerda Steiner Designs - On the Table , On the Bookshelf and the new Heffy Doodle Popping By stamp set. I then cut the largest rectangle from the Heffy Doodle Stitched Slimline Trio Dies in white cardstock. For my table, I used the Ain't So Plaid Stencil and inked with Mustard Seed and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxides. The top portion is ink blended with Tattered Rose and I splattered some black and rose gold acrylic paint for interest. I then white heat embossed the happy birthday sentiment onto a strip of black cardstock. Next, I adhered the elements down onto the card. Lastly, I adhered my panel onto a slimline card base.

3D Paper Christmas Trees - Pretty Pink Posh

Hello and welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh October Release Blog Hop!!! Hello crafty friends! I have made the cutest 3D paper Christmas trees using the Pine Trees dies and I'm very excited to share some tips and tricks for making these trees. The Pine Trees include 3 different sizes and I was able to cut 4 of each from an 8.5" x 11" cardstock. The work is tedious, but the end result makes it all worthwhile. Just enjoy the process ;) Once all the pieces are cut, simply score in half and glue one side to the other. The more trees you add, the fluffier it gets. Here is my first tip: use a binder clip to keep the trees in place while the glue dries. I used 10 trees each for these pink ones: I cut some snowflakes from the Winter Mug dies and used them as tree toppers. How about some pretty, pink, posh ghosts? (You like what I did there? Hehe) The ghost die cut is also included in the Winter Mug dies. You can add a little bit of glue or just tuck it in-between the pages of the ...

September Release Blog Hop - Pretty Pink Posh

Hello everyone and welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh September Release Blog Hop! Today, I have a square-shaped Autumn card to share with you all. For this card, I used the new Fall Corners Stamp Set . Let's get started! I first cut a 4.5" square in kraft cardstock and ink blended the bottom with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Ink. I then cut a 4"square in white cardstock and ink blended it with Dusty Concord and Milled Lavender Distress Oxide Inks. I sprayed some water for an oxidized effect and added dots using a white gel pen and Copic E44 marker. I adhered the smaller panel onto the larger one. To soften the background, I cut a 4" square in vellum . The beautiful pumpkin images from the Fall Corners Stamp Set are stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa Ink on 110lb white cardstock and colored with Copic markers. Pumpkins: E77/74/71/70, V12 W5/3/1 Y28/26/23/21 Leaves : E44/43/41 G99/46/43 W3/1/0, 00 Stems: E49/47 I cut the images with their coordinating dies ...
