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 recently attended a Virtual Stampin’ Up! Christmas Party that was put on by our team leader. The party was delayed until January since Covid was affecting delivery schedules. For this party, we were we given a package of products including a Pool Party card base, Basic Black Card Stock, Basic White Card Stock, a piece of True Love Designer Series Paper, a Square Vellum Doily and Pool Party Sheer Ribbon to create a mystery card. We could use these supplies anyway we liked to create something to share with the group. We could also add any additional supplies to the card that we wished.
My Additional Supplies
So, I added the Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder, Pool Party Ink, VersaMark Ink, White Embossing Powder, Basic Black Card Stock and Rhinestone Basic Jewels to create my final card.
I love the very elegant black/white True Love DSP with the floral motif on one side and geometrics on the other. There are so many ways to add colour to it. You could colour it with the Stampin’ Blends, the Stampin’ Write Markers, sponges or daubers. I chose to add Pool Party Ink using the new Blending Brushes.
I then trimmed it into 3 equal pieces and added it to the Basic Black mat. Once the sentiment was heat set on the Basic Black card stock, I added a trimmed down edge of the Square Doily so that it peeks out. I tied the pretty Pool Party Shimmer Ribbon around my focal point and popped it up with dimensionals. I added a scattering of Rhinestone Basic Jewels to add some shimmer.
Supplies:
Stamps/Bundles/Dies: Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set (151331
Inks: VersaMark Ink (102283), Pool Party Classic Stampin’ Pad (147107)
Paper: Pool Party (122924), Basic White (159276), Basic Black (121045), True Love Designer Series Paper (154281)

It’s Laurie here with Our Friendship is Tweet Card for Rachelle Anne Miller Creative Studios using her cute ‘Tweet Friendship’ Christmas Digital Stamp. I have been a big fan of Rachelle Anne Miller’s for a long time. In fact, I used my rubber stamp that was in my stash to create my card, but you can get the digital version in her store.
I love this sweet little girl with her tweet friends! I though she made a perfect card for a winter birthday and I have a lot of them coming up in January and February. So I have plans for her!
For my card, I coloured her with my favourite BG and YG colour combinations of Copic markers. I then created a frame by laying down the die that I used to cut her out and sponged Pool Party Ink with my new Blending Brush from Stampin’ Up! When I lifted the die up, I was left with a white frame to set off my image. I love the Frostyville Wreath in the Sparkle Glimmer Paper, but it was too small for my image. So, I cut it apart and draped it along the frame. To balance the “wreath” of snowflakes, I placed another larger snowflake opposite them. I thought that the Metallic Mesh Ribbon looked like cracked ice creating a subtle texture to the card. A scattering of Adhesive-backed Snowflakes added to the Winter Wonderland theme of my card.
Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here with my Have a Spooktacular Birthday Card. Today is my Hubby’s birthday! He’s been hinting at a Scooby Doo card since I made one for my brother back in May (I have posted it at the end) or a Halloween card. So, I made him both! I coloured with my Copic markers the Teen Detectives from Kindred Stamps for the 30 Day Coloring Challenge in June in anticipation of this card. My card is a slimline card since they are all the rage right now.
Instructions for Have a Spooktacular Birthday Card
I had a ton of fun creating the spooky graveyard scene with lots of sponging and masking! The moon and the ground were masked while sponging Rich Razzleberry around the moon, Night of Navy for the sky and Memento at the edges of the sky. Next, I sponged the ground in Old Olive. Since it is a lighter colour then Night of Navy, I didn’t have to bother masking the sky. I added some hills by using the same masks and lightly sponging some black ink on different angles. Once I removed the masks, I stamped the grave stones and bats in black ink.
I added a slider mechanism for Shaggy and Scooby since they are always running away from the scary monsters in the series! LOL! And in this case, it is the cute ghosts that are immerging from the graveyard! The Large Slimline with Sliders Dies comes with sliders, but I found that they were too long for what I wanted. So, I created my own using the retired Classic Label Punch by Stampin’ Up! I punched one and a half times overlapping in the area I wanted the slider to be. I used some pennies and dimensionals to create my sliders.
A die cut spooky fence, tree and spider with Shimmery Crystal Effects to make it glitter add to the Spooktacular scene!
Tomorrow is my Hubby’s birthday! So, today I am sharing with you my Roll With It Shaker Card that I plan to give to him. I thought a shaker card would be so fun! It is using two stamp sets, Whiskey Business and Game On, that are perfect for him! We love to play games and have game time with our friends and family on a regular basis! Now he can shake the card and his dice will always come up 6 and 5! LOL! I even coloured the dice with the Real Red and Just Jade Stampin’ Blends to match the ones that he uses. In addition to gaming, he loves his single malt scotch and is always trying different types.
Details of My Roll With It Shaker Card
For my card, I wanted to create a masculine feel. So, the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper with Early Espresso card stock was perfect for it! I use the two largest Stitched Nested Labels to create my window frame. I stamped the checkerboard in Memento Black off twice before I randomly stamped it a third time on my Whisper White background piece. Once I did this, I created my shaker part with Foam Adhesive Strips, a piece of Window Sheet, a pinch of Woven Threads Sequins and my “dice”.
For the dice and the scotch, I stamped them on Whisper White with Memento Black. I then used my Stampin’ Blends to colour them. The dice were Real Red Dark/Light and Just Jade Dark/Light with Cinnamon Cider Dark/Light for the ground. The Scotch was Cinnamon Cider Dark/Light and Mango Melody Dark with Balmy Blue Light and Color Lifter for the glass. Once these were coloured, I fussy cut them out.
The sentiment stamped in Memento Black from Game On with a splash of Real Red behind it was perfect for my card! The finishing touch was decorating the inside by combining the two stamp sets again to create my sentiment.

For Technique Tuesday, I am sharing my Let’s Celebrate You Card that is demonstrated in my last colouring video from my presentation to fellow demonstrators. I love this big bold sunflower image with the matching dies from the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle! I created another card using this set in an earlier post and used the same technique. Just in case you wanted to check it out, I added a link to it at the end of this post.
This advanced colouring technique uses 3 colours to creates more dimension and texture to what you are colouring. For the sunflower, I used three markers, Mango Melody Light and Dark and Calypso Coral Light, for the petals. I used the Calypso Coral in the darkest of shadows that are indicated by the artist drawn lines. For the flower centre, I use Soft Suede Light and Dark, but for the Dark Suede, I dotted the marker to create texture that the artist has indicated with their dots. In this video, I demonstrate this colouring technique:

Paper: Whisper White Thick (140272 ), Old Olive (100702), Soft Suede (115318), Whisper White (100730), Flowers For Every Season 6″ X 6″ Designer Series Paper (152486)

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here sharing my Sweet Wishes Birthday Card for the Design Team of Paper Nest Dolls. This cute digital stamp is called Baker Ellie Digital Stamp. I coloured her with my Copic Markers to look like me since this card was for a friend who is an amazing baker. I figured this was as close to me baking her a cake as was possible! Lol!
Mary, my friend, makes the best cakes and cake pops! They are just to die for! So, I knew that I wanted a Designer Series Paper that had lots of cakes on it. And of course, you need all the accoutrements for baking like a whisk, a rolling pin and an icing bag! Don’t you just love the little muffin pan charm with the paper flowers surrounding it!

For Technique Tuesday, I am sharing my smooth colouring technique for my beautiful Poppy Birthday Card using the Painted Poppies Bundle. I used both this bundle and the Poppy Moment Dies for this stunning card. They compliment each other so well! Of course, I had to use Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends to colour my poppies! I wanted to make the colouring the main focal point, but couldn’t resist using the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder on the Whisper White card stock once I stamped the Just Jade splotches. To add a bit of subtle dimension, I used Vellum for some of the leaves and the circular accent that grounds the piece. The Basic Rhinestones were coloured with the Dark Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blend to match my card.
For part 3 of my colouring videos with Stampin’ Blends, I am demonstrating the smooth colouring technique. The other 2 parts are listed below at the end of this document. One of the most exciting things about Blends, as the name suggests, is their blending capabilities.
Smooth Colouring Technique
Apply a smooth layer in small circles of the lightest colour to your image. If you have a large area to cover, work in sections to keep the ink moist. This wet ink will help with the blending.
Add the dark colour where the shadows will be using a flicking motion to help with the blending process and reduce the amount of ink needed for a smooth blend.
Use the light colour to blend along the area where the dark and the light colours meet
You may need to go over it a few times to get it blended how you like.
Blends have the ability to lay down smooth, even colour without streaks
Colour in small circles keeping the leading edge wet and allow the ink to blend to create a seamless look
Make sure you saturate the entire area so that you eliminate any light or mottled areas
Check the back of your paper to make sure that the ink is saturating evenly
