Gilded Leafing Technique

 Hi there!! Today is Creative Crafternoon over on my Facebook page and I was playing with the Gilded Leafing and the Butterfly Brilliance Bundle. I used sketch 476 from the Freshly Made Sketches blog as my inspiration.

Here is the sketch:

And here is my card:


First, I used a Blender Brush to add some color to the Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper. I used Tear & Tape for the strips, and then covered with the Gilded Leafing, using a sponge to remove the excess. You can watch the process on my video here.

Hope you like my card! 
Until next time...
Happy Craftin'!

Be a Unicorn!!

Here is the card I did on my Tuesday Creative Crafternoon on 3/9/21. I used the Hippo Happiness Bundle. I have a 6 year old granddaughter who loves Unicorns. We have the same unicorn coloring book and color on FaceTime together. She will be getting this card down the road. 

Here is a close up of the cute little guy! 



My post from yesterday shows another card made using the hippo, so check it out too!

Until next time...

ICS Blog Hop: Hippo Happiness Bundle

  


Hello, and welcome to the March Inspire, Create, & Share Blog Hop! We are glad you are hopping with us. 

This month, our theme is "our Favorite Bundle". Hopefully, we can inspire you to create with a bundle you own but may have been gathering dust, like mine has.


I chose the Hippo Happiness Bundle. I love the labels in the dies, and have used them a lot. But, I have neglected the stamp set. 😢


So, I pulled it out, dusted it off and created a card for my Facebook live today and another for my blog tonight.  Here is the blog card:



These little fella's are super cute, and creating with them was not difficult once I got started. 


I paired it with the Well Suited Designer Series Paper, and pulled the colors from it. Here is the inside: 


And...it is a Fun Fold, Easel Card.


I hope you like my card. Leave me a comment, and then follow the hop to see what the others have been inspired to share with you!! The talented Elizabeth is up next, come with me to see what she has for us!!

ICS Blog Hop: Flowers and Field Designer Series Paper

 


I am so happy that you could join us on the February Inspire, Create, & Share Blog Hop! 


This month, we are again focusing on our favorite Sale A  Bration products. I chose the Flower & Field Designer Series Paper (DSP) to showcase. I love the black backgrounds and vibrant colors in this DSP. 

Only 3 more weeks! Don't miss out on your favorite products!!


I, also, used the Hey Birthday Chick stamp set. I think it is one of the more fun stamp sets in our January-June Mini Catalog. These are the same chicks from the Hey Chick stamp set from 2017 Sale A Bration, but they are now partying!! And Stampin' Up! was too kind and brought back the Hey Chick Stamp Set. They also came out with coordinating dies for both Chick sets!! How fun is that?! 



I recently came across a Spanner Panel Card, and have been dying to try it. It is a fun-fold, and has 3 layers, so I can showcase lots of chicks!!!

Here is the front of the card:


Lift the front panel, and this is hiding behind the dancing chick:


And, lastly, lift the little chick, and find a party with cupcakes waiting for you to join!!


How fun is this card?! 

Thanks so much for joining us! Leave me a comment, and then follow the hop to see what the others have been inspired to share with you!! The talented Joni is up next, let's go see what she has for us!!


Did you like this fun fold? I did a video on my Facebook page earlier today, showing how to make it. Check it out here

Yes, I used those cute Hey Birthday Chick, chickens!! If you loved the original Hey Chick stamp set from Sale A Bration several years ago...you will love this one even more. Same chickens, just partying now!!! They are so happy!!

I also love the Sweet Ice Cream suite, and just had to join these two. I gave the dancing chicken an ice cream cone, and popped her up on a wobble! I love that she gets to move around!!
