A Lovely Encouragement Card by Anja!

Hi friends! Anja has made a super sweet encouragement card for us all! This positive energy is absolutely something we all need during these times!

She used the Classic Diamonds Backdrop stand-alone die for her background, and added boarder details with the largest die from the the Dots Meet Dashes Large Rectangle Overlays Stand Alone die set. She added a white back panel underneath for a white on white effect which gives it a nice clean look!

She then die cut a smaller panel from the Dots Meet Dashes Small Rectangle Overlays. To decorate this panel, she used the rainbow image from the My BFF stamp set, and stamp it multiple times with VersaMark ink and white heat embossed them – such a cool idea! She also did the same thing using the butterfly stamp from the set.

I love the vibrant colors she used on her images and the light yellow really gives it a refreshing feel!

She added a little black and white trimming to give it a nice detail. And finally adhered this panel to the diamond backdrop with foam tape for some added dimension!

Thank you so much Anja! These cute rainbows sure put smiles on our faces!

Summery Card with Lynnea!

Hello and happy 4th July to our crafty friends! I’d like to share a card created by Lynnea today which is full of summery vibe! We are so excited that Lynnea has been uploading her amazing video tutorials onto our YouTube channel in the last couple weeks!

For today’s card, Lynnea used images from our Summer Sunshine stamp set, along with some alcohol markers, distress inks, and heat embossed masking technique!

The small watermelon image she chose for the background is just super fun! I love the clever idea of using Versamarker, with clear embossing powder to mask off the bunch of tiny images and then directly blending the whole background with the warm colors distress oxide inks!

Love the black ink splatter which mimics watermelon seeds for added texture! The sentiment “SWEET” was from our Rabbit Café stamp set.

Please check out her video tutorial below or click here to watch it on our YouTube channel.
