My Winter Sweethearts Card

My Design Team Card — My Winter Sweethearts Design Team Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Winter Sweethearts Card as my last Guest Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design. I am so excited that I have been asked to become a permanent Design Team Member with them starting in March! Yippee!

For my card, I used Winter Sweethearts and coloured them with my Copic markers to match my paper in purples and taupes. I coloured the girl in purples since it is one of my favourite colours. I coloured the boy with matching hat/jeans and boots/sweater since my hubby is all about matchy-matchy! LOL! Wouldn’t they make a great Valentine, Anniversary, Christmas, anything love card, but I made them my winter sweethearts!

Level Up Birthday Card

February 25, 2021 2 Comments

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here sharing my Level Up Birthday Card for the Design Team of Paper Nest Dolls using Build Your Own Nest (Gamers). It comes with 3 digital images including a gamer boy, a gamer girl and a game console/games.

This set of digital stamps is perfect to create your own “room” using the Build Your Own Nest (Family Room). For my card, I decided that I wanted to highlight these cute gamers and their game box and games. So, I created a slim line card just for them.

I coloured them with my Copic markers in bright primary colours to match the paper that I picked. The Saved the Day paper has comic book noises like splat, boom, bam, etc. which I thought was perfect noises for video games, especially if they are playing super heroes! The game controller dies from My Favorite Things definitely had to be added to my card. I added glossy accents to the buttons on my controller to give them dimension. I had such a hard time choosing the sentiment for my card but decided on Level Up (Happy Birthday). Such a great sentiment for my card!

My Sweet Birthday Card

February 23, 2021 Leave a comment

Today is I am sharing My Sweet Birthday Card that I made for a swap using the Sweet Strawberry Bundle and the Sale-a-Bration Berry Bliss Bundle. There is only a few more day left of the Jan-Feb 2021 Sale-a-Bration and you can get the Berry Bliss Bundle for free with a qualifying $120 order.

I love how these two bundles coordinate with their berry sweet theme! The Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper is so pretty with its fresh and juicy paper designs. Both stamp sets are Distinktive and consist of two-step stamping to give you texture and dimension to your images.

Who doesn’t love a coordinating punch and what is better than the Strawberry Builder Punch! I even punched out a coordinating Granny Apple Green stem to top my strawberry.

I wanted to create a country theme by using the Pinewood Planks 3D Embossing Folder and the Denim Ribbon. The Stitched Oval also adds to my theme. The plaid DSP reminded me of a table cloth that has been laid on the ground to enjoy your picnic of berries. A couple of Red Rhinestones are the finishing touch and add a bit of sparkle to the card.

I had so much fun with my card that I ended up making 3 versions all with different sentiments.

Supplies:

Stamps/Bundles/Dies: Sweet Strawberry Bundle (156214), Berry Blessings Bundle (157613)

Inks: Crumb Cake Classic Stampin’ Pad (147116), Poppy Parade Classic Stampin’ Pad (147050), Pacific Point Classic Stampin’ Pad (147098), Granny Apple Green Classic Stampin’ Pad (147095)

Paper: Poppy Parade (119793), Crumb Cake (120953), Basic White (159276), Granny Apple Green (146990), Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper (157613)

Dance for Joy Card

February 18, 2021 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here with my Dance for Joy Card using the digital PNG stamp called ‘Ballerina Princess’ Digital Stamp by Rachelle Anne Miller Creative Studios as my Design Team Inspiration. Don’t you love this sweet little girl who just loves to dance!

For my card, I knew that I wanted to create a really girly card with soft pinks, blues and yellows. So, the 5^thAvenue Paper was perfect for my card! Once I coloured her with my Copic markers, I added glitter to her top, flowers in her hair and the star on her wand with a Clear Gelly Roll Pen.

I created a frame for my little Ballerina like she was hung on a wall in a place of honour. I used the Hydrangea Punch to build my flowers to match my colours and added a pearl in the centre since pearls are very girly! The flag banner was die cut from the 5^th Avenue Paper Pad and flanked by my flowers. Of course you have to have pink ballerina shoes for a ballerina! The sentiment sums up my card perfectly!

You Slay Me Valentine Card

February 16, 2021 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! Now that Valentine’s Day is over, I can share with you my You Slay Me Valentine Card that I gave to my Hubby. My Hubby loves anything that involves history and Vikings. He even has a Viking costume including a sword with scabbard for Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) events and Halloween. In addition to that, we are currently re-watching the Vikings TV Series. When I saw that Stamp Anniething’s January release was Vikings, I just had to get the whole release! There are three Vikings in it. I used two of them on this card and the third is on another card that I will share later.

Details of My Card

I coloured both of these cuties with my Copic markers in the colours of the main characters in the Vikings TV Series…all blonde hair and natural tones, other than Siv’s skirt to tie in my red hearts that I wanted to use. Gale comes with a number of different weapons that you can swap out depending on what you want. I went with the axe and added Glossy Accents to the metal part to make it look like polished steel. I created my two-tone shield with a number of circle dies of varying width. My Hubby informed me that Vikings preferred coloured shields when I was colouring Torin below.

My Colouring of Torin, The Third Viking in the Release

I love the sentiment “You slay me” that comes with Gale. Perfect pun for my Hubby’s Valentine card! It fitted nicely on the tag that I cut out of the matching paper. I added some twine and a die cut heart to add some visual interest to it. Some hearts and a couple of red rhinestones add a bit of pop in colour to my card.

My note to my Hubby said that I will be his Lagertha to his Ragnar always!

My Penguin Love Valentine Card

February 13, 2021 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! Happy Valentine’s Day! It’s Laurie here! I am so excited to be joining Conie Fong Art & Design as a Guest Design Team Member again for February with my My Penguin Love Valentine Card! For my February GDT card, I am using 2 different stamps. The top penguin is called Penguin Heartstrings bottom penguin is called Penguin Bundle of Love. Aren’t they just the cutest!

I coloured both of these stamps with my Copic markers in the traditional Valentine colours of pink and red. I then, decided that I wanted both of them on the same card. So, I went with a slimline card with lots of hearts for Valentine’s Day! For the sentiment, I used markers to colour just the part of the stamp that I wanted and then “huffed” (technical term lol) on it to activate the ink. For a bit of sparkle, I added glossy accents to the penguins’ beaks, feet and the heart that the Penguin Bundle of Love is holding. I also added Star Dust Stickles to the heartstrings of the other penguin. One final touch is a scattering of Red Rhinestones.

Queen of Valentines Card

February 11, 2021 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here sharing my Queen of Valentines Card using the digital version of Queen of Hearts Ellie by Paper Nest Dolls. This cute stamp come in both a rubber and a digital version. There is also a Wonderland Bundle that consists of Queen of Hearts Ellie, Emma in Wonderland, Mad Hatter Avery and Mischievous Cat. Love this Bundle! You can also buy them individually. I hope to colour more of them in the future!

For, my card, I knew that I wanted to make a Valentine’s card with this stamp. Something a little different. Hence the Queen of Valentines!

I coloured sweet Ellie with my Copic markers and added Glossy Accents and Stardust Stickles in certain places to make her sparkle. The Down the Rabbit Hole paper was perfect for my card with all the crowns! I have had this Hearts Border Die forever and thought it reminded me of the Queen’s garden of roses in the book, but with hearts instead. I had fun creating my playing cards using a die from the Stamp Anniething, but it is easy enough to create them using other rectangle and heart dies. Of course, you have to have a Queen of Hearts playing card along with an Ace of Hearts and the “back” of a third card using the Valentine Paper with all the Valentine words. A die cut heart, white rick-rack, red/white twine, red rhinestones and a card charm tie this theme all together!

Peony Thank You Card

February 8, 2021 Leave a comment

Today is I am sharing my Peony Thank You Card that I made for a swap using the beautiful Peony Garden Suite Collection. I love peonies and when I saw this collection, I knew that I had to buy it! It is getting lots of love! So far, I have made 4 cards with it! I am sharing two of those cards here.

For my card, I pulled out my Stampin’ Up! Blends in Petal Pink and Old Olive to colour this gorgeous flower. I love how you can use the matching dies to cut out the blooms, but there are also dies that build a 3D peony bloom as well! I made the card below for my Mom’s 75^th birthday using the 3D bloom and it was gorgeous!

My Mom’s Birthday Card with the 3D Peony Bloom

I love the softness of the Peony Garden Designer Series Paper and that was from where I pulled my colour scheme of Petal Pink and Gray Granite with a touch of Old Olive.

Toss A Coin Birthday Card

February 6, 2021 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here to share my Toss A Coin Birthday Card! Today is a good friend’s birthday and I thought the bard from the Monster Hunter Stamp Set by Kindred Stamps would be perfect for him! He is the best bard role player ever! Plus loves the Witcher TV show!

I coloured the whole Monster gang with my Copic markers for a colouring challenge a while ago. But I knew that I wanted to give Jonathan the bard guy for his birthday. I love the sentiment “Toss a coin for your birthday”! The Enchanted Forest Graphic 45 Paper gave my card the fantasy feel that I was looking for, and of course, you have to have music paper and notes for a bard!

Now, I just need to get the other characters onto a card as well!

I Love You Card

My Design Team Card for Rachelle Anne Miller Creative Studios

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here with my I Love You Card for Rachelle Anne Miller Creative Studios using the cute ‘Bunny Balloons’ Digital Stamp.

Valentine’s Day is coming up and this digital stamp is a quick colour if you still need to make some card for your little ones. This stamp reminds me of the Valentine cards that I use to get as a child with the sweet animals on them! Love that the bunny is giving his tweet friend a bouquet of balloons!

I coloured this stamp with my Copic markers and decided that I wanted the heart balloons to pop. So, I made them solid with the heart highlights matching the other balloons. I then added glossy accents to make them shine. The bunny was coloured with a light hand of grays to give him a white appearance. The little bird was coloured blue to match the paper and the give a pop of a different colour. The Craft Tape I found in my stash was perfect bringing in the pinks, red and blues. The two Layered Valentine Accents gave the card some dimension. I added the arrow through the heart just because you just need an arrow through a heart for a Valentine’s card! A scattering of red rhinestones adds a bit more sparkle!
