Copic Marker Card - Stamp With Laurie

Easter Bunny Trio Card

March 26, 2025 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! Easter is coming! So, I am sharing my Easter Bunny Trio Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the Easter Bunny Trio Bundle. This purchase includes 8 Images:

Easter Bunny Trio with Branch PNG
Easter Bunny Double PNG (this image includes 2 bunnies hanging on eggs as shown)
Easter Bunny Trio PNG (this image does not have the branch)
Easter Bunny 1, 2, and 3 PNG (Three individual image of the bunnies (right, middle, left) with longer string for layering images)
Sentiment: Some Bunny Loves You – PNG
Sentiment: Happy Easter – PNG

The Details of My Easter Bunny Trio Card

I had so much fun colouring with my Copic markers the bunnies’ fur in different colours and their eggs in Easter colours of pink, purple and green. I knew that I wanted the flowers in the tree to look like cherry blossoms in pinks with yellow centres.

For my card, I decided to create an Easter scene that is bursting from the frame. Literally! Lol! So, I die cut some stitched clouds and brushed some Balmy Blue Ink along the top edges of the clouds and where the two clouds over lap. This allowed the frame to pop out from the clouds and gave the clouds dimension.

Once the clouds were done, I picked out some DSP that had sky and clouds. The clouds on the DSP have a UV coating for a fun shine!

Next, was to find the perfect frame for my focal point of the bunnies. I decided to go with a frame smaller than my scene to give my card a fun whimsical feel. I tucked the top of the branch underneath the frame, but had the rest of the branch, flowers and bunnies poking out.

To add sparkle to my card, I used my Wink of Stella on the ribbons and Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen on the accents, like the polka dots, flowers and scallops on the eggs. For the bunnies’ noses, I used a Black Gelly Roll Pen to make them stand out.

A finishing touch was to add a scattering of brass butterflies around my card.

My Butterfly Wishes Card

March 7, 2025 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Butterfly Wishes Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the Butterfly Wishes image from the Butterfly Wishes Kisses Bundle. She is perfect for those birthday cards we all need! This purchase includes 2 Images:

Title1: Butterfly Wishes
Title2: Butterfly Kisses

The Details of My Butterfly Wishes Card

I had a lot of fun colouring the Butterfly Wishes image from the bundle with my Copic markers to match my Mintay paper. I thought the Peony Garden paper suited the image since she had peonies in her hair. Finally, I added Wink of Stella to the butterflies to make them shimmer and Glossy Accents to the candle flame.

For my card, I decided to go with a faux-step card so that the beautiful Mintay paper can be visible on the background layer, even behind my focal point. I had a scrap of that paper left over. So, I trimmed it down, turned it over, and added to my front panel where the sentiment was located. Next, I tucked in a Butterfly Border behind this panel since it was perfect for my butterfly motif and added a fun whimsical feel.

For the birthday sentiment, I used my Glimmer Hot Foil System (a new toy!) and die cut it out. Then I fussy cut the tea cup and two of the butterflies from the Mintay paper. I love that these images match the papers! I tucked in the sentiment and one of the butterflies around the tea cup to create my sentiment cluster. The other butterfly was added to the top left of my coloured image so that it hung over the edge between the layers.

The finishing touch was a scattering of rhinestones to add even more sparkle to my card.

My Beautiful Day Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Beautiful Day Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the stunning Bella Rose. This purchase includes 4 Images:

The Details of My Beautiful Day Card

For my card, I decided to go with a soft vintage Victorian theme and the Stamperia paper was perfect for it! The paper is so pretty with its roses and vintage wallpaper designs! There was one piece that had a circle with roses in it that suited Bella Rose! Since I wanted to add layers to my card, I used my Paper Snips to cut out the circle part to use for my focal point.

But first, I coloured Bella Rose with my Copic markers in soft colours to match my theme. I even added glitter to the roses in her hair to make them shimmer. I positioned Bella on the circle so that the rose on the layer below peeked through…almost like she was smelling the rose.

Next, I decided to create a rose gold foiled sentiment with a matching rose gold stitched mat. So, I used my laser printer and printed out a pretty scripty sentiment. Then, I foiled it using my laminator. This is something new to me and I hope to do more of it! Once this was done, I punched it out with a circle punch and added my mat.

To balance out my card, I used a tag that I tucked in behind my focal point opposite Bella. Then, I tucked in a beautiful detail rose die cut from Paper Roses on top of the tag. I thought the die cut roses matched the roses in Bella’s hair beautifully!

Finally, to add to the Vintage Victorian theme, I used some wide lace ribbon in a soft cream colour. To mirror this, I added three material roses in a matching colour opposite Bella on the circle.

The finishing touch was a scattering of sequins that matched my colour scheme and added sparkle to my card.

My Inconceivable Birthday Card

February 18, 2025 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here to share My Inconceivable Birthday Card using the Twoo Luv Stamp Set by Kindred Stamps. A good friend’s birthday was recent, and he loves a certain movie and book. So, I couldn’t resist creating this card for him with scenes from the movie!

The Details of My Inconceivable Birthday Card

For my card, I thought it would be fun to create a slimline card with the Film Strip Die by Whimsy Stamps. Each windows had a scene from the movie including the castle for The Giant since he is part of the Brute Squad, the Cliffs of Insanity for the big sword fight with the Fencer and the escape of the two sweethearts in the Fire Swamp.

But first, I coloured all the characters with my Copic markers and cut them out with my Brother Scan n’ Cut.

Once that was done, I pulled out my Whimsy Slimline papers to find the perfect backdrops for my scenes. I had to cut the papers down to fit the windows. So, I ended up using two different papers from two different paper packs. The top two windows were from the Enchanted Kingdom Slimline Paper Pack and the last window was from the Enchanted Forest Slimline Paper Pack.

Next, I decorated the inside of my card with another die cut film strip. For this one I did some stamping using the stamp set in the windows. The “Hello my name is”, I placed at the top so that I can add my friend’s name. Then, I added the final character, the Sicilian whose favourite word was “inconceivable” beneath the sentiment.

My Birthday Treat Card

February 11, 2025 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Birthday Treat Card using the sweet Daisy and Me by Mo’s Digital Pencil. I have a birthday twin whose birthday is the same day as mine! She loves her dogs and when I saw this new digital stamp, I knew it was perfect for her birthday card!

The Details of My Birthday Treat Card

For my card, I decided to create a Z-fold card so that I could decorate all the panels with the gorgeous Wildflower Birthday Specialty Designer Series Paper by Stampin’ Up! The ready-to-use die cuts that are included in the DSP were perfect for my birthday theme!

But first, I coloured with my Copic markers the dog and girl to look like my friend and her dog, Rocky! He has very distinctive marking including eyebrows! Lol. I added Glossy Accents to her phone and Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen to the heart tag on Rocky’s collar.

To add to the birthday celebrations, I used the Birthday Celebration Dies by Stampin’ Up!, as well as, a bow Corner Die from Memory Box on the front panel of the card. The cupcake was from the DSP ready-to-use die cuts and matched my colour scheme perfectly!

The sentiment was from the retired Pampered Pets Stamp Set and stamped in Blueberry Bushel before die cutting it with one of the Unbounded Love Dies.

For the inside, I decorated the panels with the DSP and die-cuts. Don’t you love that cake and banner! So festive! The inside sentiment was from the Throughout the Year Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up! and stamped in Blueberry Bushel as well. A floral die cut was the finishing touch to the sentiment panel.

For embellishments, I added some Party Dots on the front to matched my colour scheme.

My Sweet Valentine Card

January 28, 2025 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Sweet Valentine Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the beautiful Isabella Blossoms. This purchase includes 2 Images with girl facing right and left.

The Details of My Sweet Valentine Card

Valentine’ Day is coming up! So, I thought I would create a Valentine card with this beautiful lady. I coloured her in pinks and reds to match the Art Options Rouge Paper by 49 and Market. Love this paper and the matching Chipboard Elements! The paper has a lot of texture and design to it already. Therefore, my card didn’t need much to finished it off! Card making made easy!

Since my card was for Valentine’s Day, I pulled out a heart lace doily as a backdrop to my focal point. Then, I layered several chipboard elements to create my sentiment beside Isabella. I also added the “XOXO” chipboard flag at the top of my card.

Next, I added Clear Star Gelly roll pen to the centre of the flowers for sparkle. To soften the look, I lightly touched the centres with my finger to remove some of the gel. I also added Glossy Accents to the green pearls in her hair.

The finishing touch was a scattering of sequins and rhinestones that matched my colour scheme.

I just loved these cute Kawaiis with the eyes that I decided to colour the Cactus Succulent Arrangement Kawaii twice in different colours. One was for a friend’s birthday who loves succulents and the other was for a colour challenge at Kendra’s Card Challenges.

My Colouring of the Cactus Succulent Arrangement Kawaii

For my friend’s birthday card, I decided to use bright cheery colours for my colouring. I had a lot of fun colouring the succulent in two different tones of colours! I even gave the pot a variegated look! Lots of techniques from which to play!

I used the retired Succulent Garden Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up since it was perfect for the stamp. To create my focal point, I added some die cut succulents and aloe around my coloured stamp. These dies cuts were brushed with matching inks for a tone-on-tone look, but still added dimension. In addition to this, I used a roller-ball stylus in the centre of the succulents to make them pop up.

Don’t you just love the sentiment! What a hoot! And I knew my friend would get a kick out of it!

Finally, the finishing touches were rhinestones in the centre of the succulents and a strip of sheer ribbon.

Peace & Joy Christmas Card

December 20, 2024 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Peace & Joy Christmas Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using Molly Cutie from the Molly Winter Bundle. This Bundle includes 4 digital stamps:

Molly’s Winter Friends
Molly’s Joy
Molly Cutie
Molly Cutie Without Birdie

The Details of My Peace & Joy Christmas Card

I checked and this was my fourth time colouring different variations of this stamp! Lol! It is obviously one of my favourites of Conie Fong! The other three were before I was on Conie’s Design Team, and I will include them at the end of this post.

For my card, I had this gorgeous Merry Little Christmas Paper Collection by Paper Rose. So, I decided to use the piece that had the cardinal on it since I coloured the birdie as a cardinal this time. I also used the paper for the sentiment banner with the wood and Christmas word tickets.

The sentiment was foil embossed in gold with my laminator and gold foil. This is something that I have discovered recently and plan to do more often! So fun! I backed the foiled sentiment with a stitched circle from the red paper in the Collection. Tip: I die cut it out of the centre of the red mat that is behind my floral piece. Since you do not see it, it saved on paper.

The poinsettias were hand punched and assembled with gold glitter dots to mirror the poinsettia in the paper.

I had some punched glittery snowflakes on my desk from another card. So, I added them for interest.

Finally, for sparkle, I added some red rhinestones around her, as well as Star Dust Stickles to Molly’s and the bird’s pompoms. Clear Star gelly roll was added to the flowers on her dress with white gelly roll added to the polka dots on her scarf and gold gelly roll to her buttons. Glossy Accents was added to the berries that the birdie is carrying. You can never have too much sparkle on a Christmas card! Lol!

Warm Winter Wishes Card

December 5, 2024 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Warm Winter Wishes Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using Sally and Little Squirrel.

The Details of My Warm Winter Wishes Card

This stamp was one of the first stamps by Conie Fong Art & Design that I bought! I just loved Sally with her little friend, and I knew that I wanted to colour her with some of my favourite Copic marker combos!

I had this gorgeous Ciao Bella Paper that I thought would be a perfect background for her! So, I decided to make a slimline card that would show as much of the wintery scene as possible including the house.

To tie in the pinks, I went with some Rose Red card stock on which I layered vellum with silver foiled snowflakes to tie in the wintery feeling of my card.

For my sentiment cluster, I layered several flags with the different papers that I used on my card. A wooden snowflake and some linen thread add to the rustic feel of my wintery scene.

Finally, for sparkle, I added some Balmy Blue punched snowflakes to my scene, as well as Star Dust Stickles to Sally’s hat’s pompom and the snow that she is standing on. Clear Wink of Stella was used on the flower on her hat and Clear Star to the polka dots on her scarf.

November 26, 2024 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Hello Fabulous Birthday Card using Fedora By Krista Smith Stamps. I was commissioned to create a custom birthday card for a friend’s daughter.

The Details of My Hello Fabulous Birthday Card

My friend mentioned a few things to help guide me in my design such as her daughter’s favourite colour is purple and that she is into fashion. So, for my card, I went through my Krista Smith Stamps and Fedora was the one that was chosen by my friend! I knew Krista would have a stamp that would suit the daughter’s style perfectly!

So, I coloured the stamp with my Copic markers in purples and blacks to suit the daughter’s taste. I added a pop of colour with the green feather on the fedora. Next, I added some Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen to the feather and smooshed it with my finger before it dried to give the feather a soft shimmer. Gold Gelly Roll Pen was used on her earring to add some sparkle and White Gelly Roll Pen was dotted on her bottom lip to indicate the shine of lip gloss.

The Design Aspects of My Card

Once she was coloured, I discovered that the Best Dressed DSP was perfect for my colours and theme. I used the shoes DSP on one layer, the perfume DSP on the next layer and the handbags DSP within the frame. The DSP even had purple roses to match my single purple flower embellishment.

Next, I knew that I wanted to add a frame around her, and I thought the Oval Coronet Dies by Spellbinders was very elegant. I thought it would be fun having her popping out of the white frame with the handbags behind her.

For my sentiment cluster, I stamped the sentiment in Blackberry Bliss and die cut it out. I added a Blackberry Bliss scallop edge to the bottom of the sentiment. Then, I added a green feather to mirror the feather in her fedora and a purple rose. Finally, I fussy cut a perfume bottle from the DSP and tucked it behind the sentiment.

To add some texture and interest, I added some black netting that I bought at a local fabric store. I thought it really added to the fashion theme of my card!

Finally, the finishing touch was a scattering of rhinestones for some sparkle, especially since you need sparkle on a birthday card!

My Pumpkin Patch Card

November 6, 2024 2 Comments

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Pumpkin Patch Card as my Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the cute Pumpkin Gnome.

He comes with 6 images including the sentiment Sending Pumpkin Wishes:

Sentiment Sending Pumpkin Wishes PNG/JPG

Details of My Pumpkin Patch Card

For my card, I coloured with my Copic Markers my sweet Gnome in Autumnal colours to match the DSP. This DSP is perfect with those fall colours. I decided to go with a scene with the beautiful trees in all their colourful splendor! I even added some die cut leaves to match the colours in the DSP.

For my gnome, I added a die cut circle as a backdrop for him. Next, I added the stamped sentiment on a flag. I added another flag behind the die cut word “pumpkin” to make the word stand out. I thought it a fun touch to add “pumpkin” since he was picking out a pumpkin and would pick it “over and over again” just like the sentiment said!

The finishing touch was a couple of enamel dots that matched my colour scheme.

The Details of My Candy Carnival Card

Aren’t these just the cutest trick-or-treaters! I had a lot of fun colouring them with my Copic markers in spooky Halloween colours to match my paper!

For my card, I thought it would be fun to use my slimline ticket die since they are going to a Halloween carnival! Even the paper suits the Halloween carnival theme! I especially like the “admit one” paper behind the mummy ready to be torn off as he enters! Lol! The other two are partying with all their friend!

For the black arrow banner, I mounted an “Oct. 31” tag from the Doodlebug paper and added an iridescent ribbon to it. The only other embellishment, I added were a few Gorgeous Grape Glossy Dots.

Finally, to add some sparkle, I used Gold Star Gelly Roll Pen on the witch’s shoe buckles and Clear Wink of Stella to the ribbon on her hat and bow.

My Trick or Treat Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Trick or Treat Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using Penelope Pumpkin from the Wynona Witch, Candy Sally, Penelope Pumpkin Bundle.

This purchase includes 5 Images:

The Details of My Trick or Treat Card

I just love Penelope in her little pumpkin costume going trick or treating with her sweet friend! I decided to colour her in traditional Halloween colours with my Copic markers to match the Doodlebug papers.

For my scene, I went with a spooky house and graveyard in front of it. Of course, she must go through the graveyard to visit the house and, you must have an eerie full moon on Halloween night! Lol! To make my moon even more eerie, I brushed Crushed Curry Ink along the edges. One thing that is cool, is that my moon glows in the dark! Finally, I added a cute 3D bat to my scene.

Next, I added the Trick or Treat paper behind my scene instead of a traditional night sky as an homage to her activity. In addition, I added the striped paper in matching colours behind the words Trick or Treat at the bottom of my card.

Finally, to add some sparkle, I used Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen on her lollipops and Clear Wink of Stella to her bag. For the polka dots on her bag, I used a White Gelly Roll Pen.

Aloe Sweet Friend Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Aloe Sweet Friend Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the Succulent and Cactus Bundle.

The Details of My Aloe Sweet Friend Card

For the colour challenge card, I used Copic marker combos that would be like the colours listed below. Kendra had succulent and cactus digital papers that you could download with the colours for the challenge, but in the end, I decided to use Flowering Cactus Designer Series Paper instead.

Kendra's Card Challenge - Color Challenge — Kendra’s Card Challenge – Color Challenge

The Potted Succulent Dies had a beautiful detailed outline die that covered the whole card front. So, I decided to use it with the DSP peeking out from under it. Since this piece was so detailed, I didn’t add a lot to my card, other than the focal point and the sentiments.

I used the largest Stylish Shaped circle die to add a circle from the DSP and placed it behind my image to anchor it. The sentiments were also die cut from the Stylish Shaped Dies. I added Calypso Coral frames from the Potted Succulents Dies to the sentiments to help distinguish them from the background.

Don’t you just love the pun of the sentiment, “Aloe Sweet Friend” which comes with the Bundle. For the other sentiment, I typed it on my computer, printed it and die cut it out.

Finally, the finishing touch was a scattering of Calypso Coral sequins around my focal point.

My Flutterby Birthday Card

August 18, 2024 Leave a comment

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Flutterby Birthday Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the sweet Flutterby Daisy.

This purchase includes 5 Images:

Image 1 & 2: Flutterby Daisy (Girl facing right/left) JPEG format
Image 3: Flutterby Daisy – without daisy flower
Sentiment 1: Fluttering by with a friendly hi
Sentiment 2: Enjoy the simple things

The Details of My Flutterby Birthday Card

For my card, I decided that I wanted to use Flutterby Daisy facing left with her daisy. I loved colouring her and her daisy with my Copic markers in bright cheery colours to match my Mintay papers. Flutterby comes with one butterfly, but I thought a couple of extra butterflies would add a touch of fun to my card!

Close Up of Fairy — Close Up of Flutterby

I found this beautiful Daisy Circle Frame a while back and thought it would be perfect for the backdrop of Flutterby! So, I die cut it in a colour that matched my colouring of her daisy and the papers.

Since I wanted to create a birthday card, I used the sentiment from the Dandelion Wishes stamp. Perfect for a fairy birthday card! Though I did use “Fluttering by with a friendly hi” for the inside of my card.

Next, I added a butterfly die cut border of the Mintay papers along the bottom of the card with it overlapping the daisy in places hiding the stem end of the coloured daisy.

Finally, the finishing touch was a scattering of Berry Burst Shimmer Gems around my card.
