My Happy Easter Card

My Happy Easter Card
My Happy Easter Design Team Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Happy Easter Card using the digital stamp Easter Bunny Eggs by Conie Fong Art & Design.

Don’t you just love this sweet stamp! Perfect for Easter! I coloured this cutie and his friend in pastel Easter colours with my Copic markers. The paper from Doodlebug was perfect for my Easter theme! I even die cut the eggs from it. The sentiment is also from the paper. The Basket Weave embossing folder reminded me of the baskets that I used when I was little to gather my eggs. I added Nuvo Drops to some of the coloured eggs and to the die cut butterfly to give them added dimension.

My Some Bunny Card

My Design Team Card
My Some Bunny Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Some Bunny Card as my Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design. This card uses 3 different digital stamps including Bunny Daffodil Bundle which includes 9 stamps and Daffodil Flowers Bundle which includes 7 stamps.

I thought it would be cute to create a slimline card and use the Fields of Daffodils with the sweet Bunny Daffodil in front almost like he has picked those flowers just for you!

Sweet Bunny from Bunny Daffodil Digital Stamp
Sweet Bunny from Bunny Daffodil Digital Stamp

I decided to colour my daffodils in both yellows and white/yellows to give a variation to my field of daffodils. Daffodils can come in many different colours, but these are the colours that I have in my garden. My favourite is the white with yellow centres! To fit my field onto the slim line base, I cut it in half so that there is a slight gap which you can’t see behind the bunny. So, it looks like a continual field of daffodils! I did the same thing with the 6” pretty paper that you can just see peeking out as a border around the daffodils. This saves paper and you can’t see the gap hidden behind the bunny. A win-win situation! A couple of die cut butterflies with rhinestones and some epoxy water drops is all the embellishments that this card needed.

My Angelic Slimline Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Angelic Slimline Card using Angel Emma Catching StarsAngel Owen on a Cloud and Angel Ellie on a Cloud all by Paper Nest Dolls. I thought that all three stamps together would make a fun slimline card!

It was so much fun colouring these sweet angels in bright Spring-like colours! Can you see I’m longing for Spring! Lol! I used glossy accents on all the gold bits and Clear Wink of Stella on their wings since angel wings should sparkle! For my clouds, I alternated white and blue measuring each layer so that they all stack on each other with lots of dimensionals. Since I decided to create a night sky behind them, I added a glimmery moon and a scattering of stars throughout my scene.

My Somebunny Sweet Easter Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here with my Somebunny Sweet Easter Card using the digital stamp called ‘Easter Bunny Girl’ Digital Stamp by Rachelle Anne Miller Creative Studios. What a sweet image for Easter!

I had so much fun colouring my Easter scene with my Copic markers! The Doodlebug paper with those Easter eggs and grass images were perfect for my card! To make my die cut Easter eggs so colourful, I even cut them out of the paper. Don’t you just love them! So cute! I had some scraps of paper left from a previous project. So, I put them together to create a tri-coloured frame behind my coloured image. Great way to use up scraps! I added a white picket fence and clouds with a sun to make my scene so happy since Easter is a happy time for kids big and small!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Happy St. Patrick's Day Card
Happy St. Patrick’s Day Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! St. Patrick’s Day is next week, and I thought I would use Ellie with Clovers by Paper Nest Dolls for my Happy St. Patrick’s Day Card.

I do not have a lot of St. Patrick’s Day stuff in my stash, but I always create a card since my cousin is Irish and I like to send her a card.

I coloured Ellie with my Copic markers in traditional green and yellow tones. I also gave her red hair since my cousin has a couple of red heads in her family. Some crocheted lace was added since Ireland is known for their beautiful lace. Three four leaf clovers with gems create a nice border to set off the tag from the Doodlebug Paper. A couple of glitter sprinkles finish my card off.

My Puppy Love Card

My Puppy Love Card
My Puppy Love Design Team Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Puppy Love Card as my first official Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design. I am so excited that I have been asked to become a permanent Design Team Member! Yippee!

For my card, I used the sweet Puppy Cuddles and coloured with my Copic markers her hair colour to match her puppy’s fur. You know what they say…you look like your dog. Lol! 

Since it is still snowy here is Canada, I thought I would create one last winter card as a mini slim line card. I have been having so much fun with slim line cards and thought it would be fun to create my first mini card for her! The birch trees were the perfect size for my slim line card with a couple of snow banks to fill in the space at the bottom. I decided that the Friend die would be neat die cut from the snow bank. I added the white embossed “Best” on Early Espresso to match the colour of her dog and to complete my Best Friend sentiment since all dogs are Man’s Best Friend!

Always Be A Mermaid Card

My Always Be A Mermaid Card
My Always Be A Mermaid Design Team Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here with my Always Be A Mermaid Card using the stamp called ‘Mermaid’ Digital Stamp by Rachelle Anne Miller Creative Studios. I love this sweet mermaid and her little friends!

For my card, I knew that I wanted to create a slim line card for her with a pretty watery background! I coloured her with my Copic markers. I especially had fun with her tail and used two different colour combinations to give it a mermaid look. And then, I added Stickles since you know mermaids have sparkly tails! Once I coloured her and her friends, I fussy cut them out.

My Watery Background Technique
My Watery Background Technique

For my water, I pulled out my Distress Oxides and worked from light in the centre (Peacock Feathers and Mermaid Lagoon) where I wanted to highlight her to the darkest at the edges (Salty Ocean and Broken China). Once I did that, I splattered water on the panel and removed the water droplets with a paper towel to give some dimension. Next, I splattered the panel with the Frost White shimmer paint and let everything dry.

Some dies from my stash, a scattering of clear dew drops, and real shells are added to finish my watery scene.

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

My Level Up Birthday Card
My Level Up Birthday Card

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!

Dance for Joy Card

My Dance for Joy Card
Dance for Joy Card

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 5thAvenue 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 5th 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

My You Slay Me Valentine Card
My You Slay Me Valentine Card

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

My Penguin Love Valentine Card

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!

Close Up of Penguin Heartstrings

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

My Queen of Valentines Card for the Design Team of Paper Nest Dolls
My Queen of Valentines Card

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!

Time to Celebrate Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here with my Time to Celebrate Card. This card is special since it’s the start of something wonderful! Rachelle Anne Miller Creative Studios and My Favorite Things are teaming up to bring clear stamps and dies to you! How exciting! My card is using the stamp set called You’re My Jam. I think it is awesome that you can now get dies to cut out your favourite Rachelle Anne Miller stamps! And I love the sentiments that come with it: “Grab the cymbals, It’s time to celebrate”, “We rock”, “You’re my jam”, “I can’t wait to get the band back together” and “ Thank you for playing my part when I couldn’t”. There are so many uses for this stamp set!
