Hey everyone! I wanted to share some Valentine-esque cards in the upcoming month… I’m not a huge fan of Valentine’s day but I do love hearts and anything lovey-dovey (does that even make sense?). First up, is this Trinity Stamps Heart Shaker. The stamp set comes with an amazing die set that allows you to get pretty creative.

Hi everyone! It’s Jeannie (InsideoutJeans) on the blog today with Gerda Steiner Design’s stamp set named, Valentine Penguins. Yes, it’s January but I didn’t intend to make a valentine’s card at all. I actually don’t like the commercial aspect behind the holiday and firmly believe that you should always show people you care about them year round.
For this card, I’m using some atelier inks to do ink blending. They blend so smoothly and I wanted a non-traditional colored sky (mainly because one of my goals for the year is to go outside my comfort zone). I used Bee Sting Yellow, Sweet Petunia Pink and Peacock Blue with a splatter of water and Perfect Pearls all over. Also, I wanted to add an element of the sky, so I used the clouds border die, cutting pieces of white cardstock and vellum to give it a bit of interest.
I colored up the two penguins with copic markers and fussy cut them out. I tend to really like the no white outline look but you definitely can use the dies or cut with an outline too. They are pretty simple images to cut (one of the reasons why I love to mask and fussy cut with Gerda Steiner sets).
The card came together really nicely and I am so happy with how it turned out since, it’s not specifically a valentine’s day card but a card to tell someone they are loved.
Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you get inspired to create. Come back again soon for more inspiration and ideas! Happy Crafting!
Hey everyone! Today, I’m creating a really simple card, mainly because I didn’t feel like coloring but wanted to use some images. The technique I fall back on is just heat embossing and then inking up the entire image in one color. Check it out in the video below!

Happy New Year! One of my crafty goals this year is to use a bunch of different craft companies throughout the year, either just their products or a mix and match. This is craft company #1 that I’m featuring… Pinkfresh Studio!
It was a super easy card to put together using the stencils and stamps. I just stamped the Cosmos Bunch on one half of the card and then the other side, masking the middle to leave room for a sentiment from the Perfect Sentiments stamp set. Here’s a YT short to show how I put it together!
I loved this set so much that I decided to kick off my bullet journal using it … and here’s my first planner video that features it!

Happy New Years eve! Last year, I committed to a bullet journal (bujo) to really incorporate my stamps, stencils and ink… and I completed the entire year. This year, I decided to be a bit more adventurous and plan on practicing using gouache in my planner — the Archer and Olive notebooks hold up pretty well if you don’t oversaturate the page with water. This page is a fun one but I’ll share the magical portion shortly… and if you know me, I love the interactive aspects of cards, which I wanted to bring to my planner.
