My EEK It’s Halloween Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My EEK It’s a Halloween Card as my Design Team Inspiration for Conie Fong Art & Design using the sweet Wynona Pumpkin Kitty. She comes in PNG and JPG formats.

The Details of My Card

For my card, I decided to colour Wynona in bright Halloweenie (my technical term! Lol!) colours with my Copic markers. I have always loved bright greens with purples for a spooktacular Halloween card! These colours went perfectly with my Doodlebug Papers!

Since Wynona was in the pumpkin patch, I had to add more die cut pumpkins to layer behind her! The black/white twine was tied around them and the bow secured my fun witches hat charm!

The spider web doily created an ideal backdrop for my focal point of Wynona and her Kittie!

I added a few matching dots and the die cut “EEK” from gimmer paper to give my card some sparkle.

Wynona is such a sweet stamp with her cute Kitty in the pumpkin patch!

My Happiest of Birthdays Card

My Happiest of Birthdays Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Happiest of Birthdays Card as my Design Team Inspiration for Conie Fong Art & Design using the sweet Twinkle Emily Bundle. She comes in PNG and JPG formats with 5 stamps:

I used Twinkle Emily Left for my card in JPG format.

The Details of My Card

For my mini slimline card, I decided to colour Emily in bright bonny colours with my Copic markers to match the DSP. Nothing says “Happy” like these colours!

I love how Emily is dancing with her birthday wand! So, I used a die that shows movement like she is casting a birthday wish for happiness on the recipient’s birthday!

Next, I used my new favourite dies that create a tag that can also be used on a mini slimline card! These Photo Play dies create a lot of wonderful layering opportunities!

I used my trick of colouring rhinestones to match my colouring to add some sparkle. Star Dust Stickles was added to the star on the wand and her pompoms. While Clear Wink of Stella was added to the flower on her hat.

Magical Birthday Wishes Card

Easel Card with gnome riding a tricycle
Magical Birthday Wishes Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Magical Birthday Wishes Card as my Design Team Inspiration for Conie Fong Art & Design using three different stamps that include Fairytale Cottage Background Scene, Tricycle Gnome and Sentiment Bundle PNG and Dandelion Wishes for the sentiment.

I decided to use a different sentiment than what comes in the Tricycle Gnome and Sentiment Bundle PNG. It does come with 11 images including a birthday sentiment, but I needed a larger sentiment for my card. The Bundle comes with:

  • Tricycle Gnome PNG
  • Tricycle Gnome – Double Heart Balloons PNG
  • Tricycle Gnome- Double Round Balloons PNG
  • Tricycle Gnome – Single Balloon PNG
  • Heart Balloon PNG
  • Round Balloon PNG
  • Happy Birthday Sentiment PNG Sentiment
  • With Sympathy Sentiment PNG Sentiment
  • Thinking Of You Sentiment PNG Sentiment
  • Sending You Love Sentiment PNG Sentiment
  • You Are So Special Sentiment PNG Sentiment

The Details of My Card

For my card, I thought it would be neat to combine the Fairytale Cottage and the Tricycle Gnome to create a fun easel card! I used the PNG version of the Tricycle Gnome so that the background would be visible behind the gnome. PNGs have a clear background.

For the Fairytale Cottage, there is a river that runs through it. But I decided that my gnome would be riding his tricycle down a dirt road instead of the river. So, I coloured the river as a road. I also strategically place him in the scene so that his flowers mostly cover up the wooden bridge. You probably wouldn’t notice it if I didn’t say anything. I also wanted to make sure that the quaint cottage was visible like he just left it to deliver his flowers.

Close Up of Scene
Close Up of Scene

I had a lot of fun colouring the scene and the gnome with my Copic markers! The card didn’t need any embellishments, but I did add Star Dust Stickles to the light coming from the windows, his pompom and the dog’s pompom. I also added some accents in white with a Gelly Roll Pen to his outfit. And finally, I added Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen to the spokes and pedals of his tricycle and the orange flower centres.

Since I didn’t have a metal die big enough to cut out my scene, I used my Brother Scan & Cut to cut out the scene and the subsequent circles for my easel. I love the easel card since it folds flat for mailing purposes!

Colour Your World

Colour Your World

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Colour Your World as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the beautiful Artistic Leilani. She comes with 9 stamps including:

  • Artistic Leilani Left 
  • Artistic Leilani Right
  • Artistic Leilani Left – Short Dress
  • Artistic Leilani Right – Short Dress
  • Sentiment: You Color My World
  • Sentiment: You Colour My World
  • Sentiment: Happy Birthday To An Amazing Friend
  • Sentiment: I am not a hoarder. I am an artist.
  • Sentiment: Art comes from the heart

The Details of My Card

A good friend of mine retired recently and she loves to colour. In fact, she was the one who got me into making cards and colouring! So, I thought that Artistic Leilani would be perfect for her retirement card!

For my mini slimline card, I coloured Leilani with my Copic markers using the colour scheme of the Cute & Crafty Paper Pad with its bright colours. It was idea for my crafty colouring theme.

I used the piece of designer paper that had the bands of rainbow colours and layered it beneath my quatrefoil die cut. Isn’t it neat how the different bands of colour peek through the white die cut!

I love the cute Copic marker die cut piece from the Odds and Ends that I layered beneath my sentiment. A row of rainbow-coloured hearts is the other die cut piece that I pulled from the Chit Chat. You must have hearts when it comes to what you love to do!

I used Wink of Stella on the flowers in her hair and Glossy Accents on her pink jar. The finishing touch was some glittery sprinkles that matched my colour scheme.

Christmas Presents in July Card

Christmas card with gnome holding presents
Christmas Presents in July Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! Who else loves to make Christmas in July cards? I am sharing my Christmas Presents in July Card as my Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the cute Christmas Present Gnome and Sentiment Bundle. This bundle comes with 9 stamps including Christmas Present Gnome PNG/JPG format, Christmas Present Gnome with Tree JPG format, Christmas Tree PNG/JPG format, Sentiment May Your Christmas Be Filled with Peace and Love PNG/JPG format and Sentiment Season’s Greeting PNG/JPG format.

Details of My Card

I had coloured with my Copic markers this sweet gnome a while back and I finally had a chance to make a card for him. I also made another card with him that I will post at the end.

For my card, the Doodlebug paper was perfect to match the bright colours in my colouring. Even the trees in the paper match my coloring! Lol!

I used the CC Designs Cloud Stencil and my Picket Fence Blending Brush to create clouds in Pool Party behind him.

I thought it would be fun to have him tromping through the snow. So, I pulled out my snow marker to create snow on the ground. I just love how it puffs up when I heat it with my Heat Tool.

Since it was a Christmas card, I needed lots of sparkle. So, I added Star Dust stickles to the star, ornaments, and trim on his hat. The holly berries even glisten with glossy accents!

The only die cut I used was a tree that I sponged Old Olive ink on and decorated with rhinestones coloured to match the ornaments on my tree.

Birthday Card with a Girl with Orchids in her hair
My Orchid Beauty Birthday Wishes

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Orchid Beauty Birthday Wishes as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the beautiful Alanna. Don’t you just love that serene look she has!

The Details of My Card

For my card, I decided to use some pretty papers with pastel colours from The Paper Boutique. So, I coloured with my Copic markers Alanna to match them. That blue is so pretty that I had to give her eyeshadow to match her dress!

I went with several die cuts like the leafy vine, the delicate pink frame, and the butterflies to decorate my card. The sentiment is from a matching paper pad and went perfectly with my colours. A scattering of gems and a gem in the centre of each butterfly added some sparkle. A finishing touch was Wink of Stella on the orchids. Such a beautiful image!

My Flowers for You Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Flowers For You Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the Dragon Bouquet and Sentiment Bundle. This stamp is so versatile and can be used for so many occasions! It includes 6 images and comes in PNG or JPG:

  • Dragon Bouquet
  • Thinking Of You Sentiment
  • Have A Beautiful Day
  • Hello Friend
  • Just Because
  • Flowers For You Sentiment

The Details of My Card

For my card, I decided on the MME paper since I love the rustic wood texture and the collage on the paper! There is a sentiment on it under his feet, “start every day with a smile”. I thought this was such a sweet sentiment and would bring a smile to the recipient

From there, I picked out my Copic marker colours from the paper to colour my cute dragon and the bouquet. I also coloured some extra flowers that you get in the bundle in the colours I used for my bouquet. The sentiment from the bundle was die cut into a banner and layered with the coloured flowers and another banner below.

For embellishments, I used brass butterflies, clear epoxy dew drops and Clear Wink of Stella on the flowers.

My Happy Mother’s Day Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Happy Mother’s Day Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using Bella With Rose.

The Details of My Card

For my card, I thought Bella With Rose would make a perfect Mother’s Day Card! She is such a cutie and Mother’s Day is only a few weeks away!

I decided to go with soft pastel colours to match the beautiful Spring papers from The Paper Boutique. The Stitched with Love Paper Pad matched this colour scheme well and it had purple roses that I used for inspiration to colour my rose.

To me nothing says Mother’s Day like a beautiful doily and this one had roses on it. Perfect for my rose theme and to center my focal point!

I have been wanting to use the beautiful rose die from Paper Roses for a while and thought this was ideal for my card!

A scattering of pink pearls and butterflies to match my paper completed my card.

The Details of My Card

For my card, I had so much fun colouring up this cutie with my Copic markers and using Easter colours on his egg.

The paper was the perfect choice since it had Easter eggs on one and Easter bunnies on the other. Love Doodlebug for their bright colours! The ribbon also has an Easter theme with cute bunnies on it.

I have had these two Easter eggs die cuts forever and thought this would be a perfect time to use them by layering them on the card. 

The sentiment is from Easter Bunny Gnome and Sentiment Bundle. I just snipped them apart to fit my space. A couple of die cut flowers highlight the sentiment.

I coloured my pearls and rhinestone in matching colours. A row of rhinestones on the top die cut egg add some dimension and sparkle. Clear Wink of Stella on his egg and flower add a little more sparkle.

My Easter Greetings Card

A card with a gnome in a bunny costume.
My Easter Greetings Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! Easter is just around the corner! So, I am sharing My Easter Greetings Card as my Design Team Inspiration for Conie Fong Art & Design using Easter Bunny Gnome and Sentiment Bundle. This cutie comes with 8 digital stamps including:

Easter Bunny Gnome PNG
Easter Bunny Gnome – No Bowtie PNG
Bunny V1 PNG
Easter Bunny Gnome With Background PNG
Easter Bunny Gnome With Background – No Bowtie PNG
Bunny V2 PNG
Easter Greetings Sentiment PNG
Egg PNG

So many choices, but in the end, I used Easter Bunny Gnome With Background – No Bowtie.

The Details of My Card

For my card, I decided to colour the gnome’s outfit in Easter colours of purple and blue/green. For the trim on his hat, I did some colouring called stumbling. It is something I learned recently and thought it would look neat for his trim. Stumbling is where you do squiggles in different colours building it up to create dimension.

I thought I would create a scene since these cuties came with a background. So, once I finished colouring everything, I pulled out my Krafty Basics Stencil and sponge some clouds in the sky. A couple of die cut clouds added some dimension. I layered the sentiment onto a cloud to add some visual interest. A scattering of glitter dots helped tie in my colour scheme.

My Snowy Birthday Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Snowy Birthday Card as my Design Team Inspiration for Conie Fong Art & Design using Snowy With Present. This cutie is a free digital stamp in the Conie Fong Art & Design Group on Facebook. You can find him here with some other freebies: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.439587832883062&type=3.

The Details of My Card

This cutie can be used for so many things like Christmas, Valentine, Baby, Anniversary, Birthday, basically any kind of celebration! I have several winter birthdays and I decided that he would be perfect for one of my birthday cards.

I coloured him with my Copic markers to match my paper. The Doodlebug Paper was perfect for my wintery theme, and it had the cutest penguins on it! To add to my wintery theme, I embossed some white card stock with snowflakes and added a snowflake wreath to frame my focal point. A couple of rhinestones tied in the colour scheme and added sparkle.

Happy Birthday My Gnomie Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Happy Birthday My Gnomie Card as my Design Team Inspiration for Conie Fong Art & Design using Gnome Sweethearts With Dogs. This stamp set comes with 11 images including:

Gnome Sweethearts
Gnome Sweethearts with Dog
Maltese Dog
Yorkie Dog
Generic Dog
Lab Dog
Bulldog
Happy Birthday to My Favorite Gnomie Sentment
Happy Anniversary to My Favorite Gnomie Sentiment
Sweet Gnomie Love Sentiment
For My Sweet Gnomie Sentiment

The Details of My Card

This stamp set is perfect for anniversaries, weddings, Valentine’s Day and anything Love, but I decided to use it for a birthday card! The sentiment is so fun and perfect for a birthday!

A friend of mine had her birthday recently and I know she loves gnomes and has 2 dogs that she dotes on. So, I thought this set would be perfect for her birthday card! I even coloured the dogs to look like hers!

Ruby
Rocky

For my card, I pulled out my Build a Fairy Garden Die Set to decorate my card with these fun mushrooms. Don’t you just love the sparkly fairy blowing kisses the gnomes way!  Since the die cut picket fence wasn’t long enough to fit my slimline card, I cut it in half and hid the cut ends behind my gnomes. To give the fence a worn look, I sponged vintage photo ink on it. The paper I used had a gnome theme and the field of flowers and mushrooms was perfect for my card!

My Love Is In The Air Card

My Love Is In The Air Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Love Is In The Air Card as my Design Team Inspiration for Conie Fong Art & Design using the Gnome With Balloon and Sentiment Bundle. If you need a fast Valentine card, then this is it!

I had great fun colouring this cutie for a birthday card (link) that I thought he would make a fun Valentine card with his heart balloon! He comes with 9 stamps including a choice of heart balloon or round balloon, with or without grass and 5 sentiments that consist of Hello Love, Love Is In The Air (2 different styles), Happy Valentine’s Day and Heart Full Of Love in JPG. You can also get him in PNG.

Details of My Card

I decided that I wanted to use the Glorious Sky Slimline Paper for my background, but I die cut it down to fit a Mini Slimline card instead. This paper is awesome in that it completes the scene with minimal fuss. All I had to do was add my die cut sentiment with some Valentine flags and my coloured image which I popped onto an Action Wobble. What is more fun than an interactive card and this one is super cute!

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Magical Birthday Card as my Design Team Inspiration for Conie Fong Art & Design using the Gnome With Balloon and Sentiment Bundle.

You can also get him in PNG.

Details of My Card

This bundle is great for Valentine’s Day, anniversaries and so much more, but I decided that I wanted to create a birthday card. So, I used the sentiment from Dandelion Wishes to create my birthday card. 

Since this cutie is floating in the air, I thought I would create some clouds with a stencil, ink and dies. Perfect way to ground him from the very colorful Doodlebug paper! I thought it would be fun to have the sentiment on the cloud with the sun peeking above. I added Glossy Accents to the balloon to make it shine. A scattering of matching dots and rhinestones tie in the colour scheme.

My Wintery Birthday Wishes Card

Wintery Birthday Wishes Card

Hello Crafty Friends! Happy New Year! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Wintery Birthday Wishes Card as my first 2022 Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the sweet Emily with Penguin. She comes with 6 stamps including a choice of curly hair or braids and 2 sentiments that consist of Believe in the magic of Christmas and Sending Christmas Joy in PNG and JPG.

Details of My Card

For my card, Emily comes with Christmas sentiments, but I thought she would make a sweet winter birthday card! I have six birthdays, including mine, this month alone! So, I needed to get busy making birthday cards! 

I love the soft pastel colours of the Doodlebug paper! So, I used that beautiful palette to colour the digital stamp with my Copic marker. The large Wonderful Snowflake has a beautiful iridescent foil card stock look to it. Once I punched out the large snowflake, I used the leftover scraps of the foil card stock to die cut my smaller snowflakes to match it. By adding a few rhinestones to the centre of the snowflakes, I created even more shimmer. Aren’t those mittens just the cutest! Perfect for a winter card! And to add a bit of sparkle to them, I added some embellishments that look like snowflakes! Finally, I couldn’t resist using Stickles to Emily’s trim on her hat for even more sparkle! A birthday sentiment was all the card needed!
