Just For You Birthday Card

Hello! I’m working on another birthday card, I’m determined to have a few ready to go in my card stash! Birthday cards just seem to go as soon as I make them, but I wanted to create a card that’s really easy for you to create too.

As you know I love any type of cute images especially critters so I was excited to use these stamps from My Favourite Things Birthday Bear and Friends Stamp Set. My die cut panel is made using Spellbinders Picot Petite Squares.
I stamped my images using my Misti Stamping Platform and this is really helpful when it came to stamping the sentiment as it was easy to stamp this twice to get a crisp image. The only part that will take a bit of time is the colouring, other than that this card is super quick to create.
I added a couple of gems to finish my card off and for a bit of sparkle and detail too. This will also look sweet with a die cut number added to the card.

A Christmas Flower Card

Hello crafty friends! I’m sharing a sweet card I made for Christmas.

I’ve used a cute Honey Bee Stamps critter stamp and the rest was made using my silhouette cameo. I coloured up the flowers and leaves too. Even though the stamp is not really Christmasy I thought the critters would look cute on the card, I coloured the bird as a robin because they always remind me of winter and Christmas.
I heat embossed my sentiment too using white embossing powder. As usual my images are coloured up using my copics.

I had so much fun making this card. I absolutely love the gorgeous paper pad and the colours are beautiful so I trimmed a sheet down for my background. I then went and die cut all the above dies listed above.
Using the Copics I coloured up these cuties and fussy cut them out. I added all my dies and then my images.
I’ve had a blast with this release! I can’t wait to see all your cards too that you create.

Thank you so much for stopping by I hope you have a great Sunday!

Stay Cozy!

Hello! I’m back today sharing another card I made using the La-La Land Crafts November release

I wanted to create a fun card and I loved adding the Christmas trees to the jumper!

Products Used:
Stay Cozy Luka Rubber Stamp
Snow Time Stencil Set
Christmas Tree with Trimmings Die
Layered Deer Die
Deer Clothes Die
Santa Sleigh Die
Horizontal Pocket Die

Copics:
Skin: E000, E01, E11, E13, Bg000, C2

I wanted to have a dark background and make it look like a Christmas night and I absolutely love the Snow Time Stencil Set I used the clock stencil on my background.
I added some stars along the Santa Sleigh Die as it makes me think the reindeers are leaving their magical dust along their travels. I used the above Copics to colour up Luka I think he looks very happy in his Christmas jumper.

I will be back tomorrow with another card from the new release.

Have a lovely day!
