Floating Floor Pop Up | GSD

April 26, 2018April 24, 2018Posted in 3d Pop Up Card, Gerda Steiner DesignsLeave a comment

Hey there! I’m sharing this Floating Floor Pop Up card today using Gerda Steiner Designs Go Wild stamp set. Going on a safari is on my bucket list, but I haven’t gone yet so I like the idea of creating a card to pretend I’ve been.

I have a video to describe my process and it does seem a bit overwhelming at first. I think once you have all the moving parts ready to go, it is pretty easy to put together.

As always, my supplies are listed below.

1 Card Design, 2 Backgrounds | Honey Bee Stamps

April 20, 2018April 19, 2018Posted in Featured, Honey Bee StampsLeave a comment

Happy Friday everyone! Today I’m swinging by to share these two cards I created using a bunch of Honey Bee Stamps items.

I started off using black cardstock alongside Nuvo Glimmer Paste. I thought it would be cool to create my own colored glimmer paste and use it against black cardstock. Who knew I that I would hate it and then love it again? I really didn’t like how it looked so I switched over to white, fully intending just to make one card.

When I finished creating the background using the hexagon stencil and the glimmer paste, I figured I might as well make a background out of it. What did I have to lose?

Here are how the two cards turned out. What do you think? Which one do you like more?

If you want to see how I put these together, here’s my video for it. Also, all my supplies are listed below as well. Hope you have a great day!

Have a Ball! | Gerda Steiner Designs

April 14, 2018April 14, 2018Posted in Birthday, Distress Ink, Gerda Steiner Designs, Pull TabLeave a comment

Hello everyone! It’s been awhile since I’ve shared one of my cards and I really am loving this one. If you’re a fan of animals, especially doggies, this Dachshunds stamp set is for you! You’ll see that I used the Hoppiness stamp set as well to add a few extra elements to the card as well.

I used a grassy hills die to create a stencil. Using distress inks, I colored two layers of the grass. I definitely wanted to use two of the dogs in the set. I like how the first dog is looking back. I can’t really tell if he’s looking at that butterfly on his tail or the other dog chasing the tennis ball.

Since the second dog looked to be moving, I wanted to put him in action. And what dog doesn’t love chasing balls? I just had to have him chase the tennis ball included in this set. I create a pull tab channel so he could run towards the ball.

I used two sentiments in this card: It’s Your Birthday and Have A Ball. The first one is prominent on the front of the card, but the second one is hidden until the dog fetches the ball. It’s a small surprise for the card recipient.

I used the hearts and the butterfly from the Hoppiness set so I could add pop of color to the card. It looked a little too plain with just the doggies. I think it helps add that special something to the card.

I hope you enjoyed this card and picked up the set. It’s so fun! Thanks for stopping by!

DIY Magnetic Bookmarks | The Sassy Club

April 6, 2018April 5, 2018Posted in DIY, The Sassy Club1 Comment

Hello everyone! I’m doing something a bit different today. Instead of a card, I’m sharing how I created a few magnetic bookmarks. It’s really easy to put together and I had a lot of fun using The Sassy Club’s Darla Reads stamp set for it. It’s absolutely perfect for bookmarks.

These little bookmarks make for perfect stocking stuffers, little favors, or for your own personal use. Can you guess which book this is?

I have a video that accompanies this DIY to share how I created them.
