An opened present

I’ve used one of Lee Holland’s cute stamps for this card. It’s a mini-slimline card where I’ve cut the coloured panel to fit the bottom half of the card. It’s put on foam tape over a Maja Design winter paper. This is one of my all time favourite papers. The sentiment is make with an Altenew alphabet set. The Tall Alpha set (affiliate link) is definitely one of my favourite alphabets! A few enamel dots and done!

It’s a party!

I do love a good mash-up card and this is one of them! I’ve combined loads of different brands to make this. Distress Oxide inks for the background before using an My Favorite Things background stamp for the text. I think sprinkled water on after to get it more uneven. After using a mini slimline die cut I used Picket Fence Studios paper glaze on a Pretty Pink Posh stencil for the banners. The cupcake is a digital stamp by Alex Syberia coloured in copics. It’s cut out and put on foam tape. An Altenew sentiment and die set is for the text stripe and the sequins are Little Things by Lucy.

Cardmaking video

This is it! I’ve finally made my first cardmaking video! I’ve used the Stampwheel, some stencils, various inks and the Paper Pouncers. This video is made as part of a collaboration between Altenew and Picket Fence Studios (these and all links to follow are affiliate links). It is a video hop with various prizes, so please visit YouTube HERE to take part in the hop and see all the details about the Giveaway!

This was so much fun. I used the Paper Pouncers Bright Rainbow and Paper Pouncers White to apply the ink through the stencils. They are perfect for getting all those little details showing. I used some new inks I bought at the weekend on the Swamp Buttercup stencils I bought this spring. Several layers of the Oversized Hello die in white made worked really well on top, I thought. Below you can see the video of the cardmaking process:

Love Heart

I’ve taken some time to play around with some goodies I bought earlier this year. This is the Mod Heart by Mama Elephant which I bought at ByCino. It is such a fun heart and I die cut it in loads of different card stocks colours so I could mix and match. The card stocks are mostly by Papertrey Ink and MFT Stamps.

The sentiment is by Spellbinders and the sentiment strip is by Altenew.
