Stamping – card_days

Paper hugs

I bought this really cool Concentric Doodle cling stamp from Simon Says Stamp back in Stamptember last year, and still hadn’t gotten around to using it, so I thought it really was about time! I love it and actually made 5 different backgrounds, which I’ll share as I turn them into cards, but for todayContinue reading “Paper hugs”

You raise me up

Happy Friday, crafty friends. I’m glad it’s the weekend, it’s been a tough week! In fact, it’s been a tough few weeks and so I made this little card for my husband to thank him for all his support recently. The main image is from the You Raise Me Up stamp set by Mama Elephant,Continue reading “You raise me up”

Thank you card

Today I’m sharing the 2nd thank you card I made after Christmas, and this one was also mass produced, even if it doesn’t look it! To start, I cut two of the Altenew Garden Trellis background die (for each card) from white card, glued them together for dimension, then glued them to a vanilla colouredContinue reading “Thank you card”

Have a Super birthday!

Hi crafty friends! As you may know, I love superhero cards, so when I nabbed the Heffy Doodle Superdudes set for the recent collab with Time for Tea Designs, I couldn’t stop at just one card! To make this interactive card, I started by ink blending a panel of smooth white card with various blueContinue reading “Have a Super birthday!”

Seahorsin Around

I made another card using the card sketch for the current Lawn Fawn challenge, this time featuring the cutey little seahorses from the Seahorsin Around stamp set. I’m really pleased with how this one turned out, as it was my first time playing with the Tonic Studios shimmer powders I used for the background. IContinue reading “Seahorsin Around”

Pop up slider card

Hi everyone, thanks for joining me today, it’s been a while! I thought I’d share with you a card I made recently for my daughter’s friend’s birthday. He loves dinosaurs, so I had to get them in somewhere! To make this card, I die cut and assembled a slider mechanism using the Heffy Doodle doubleContinue reading “Pop up slider card”

Hey friend

I absolutely love the jammy dodger stamp included in the Teariffic set from Time for Tea Designs, so today I’m sharing another card project I made with it! I started by stamping the image with Versamark ink onto a rainbow of different cardstock. I heat embossed in white, and then fussy cut around each oneContinue reading “Hey friend”
