Mini Scene | Picket Fence Studio

You always can create a mini scene when you have a smaller stamp set or small images. I set it up on the top portion of my card, heat embossed, ink blended, and then added the sentiment along with colored images. It’s an easy layout that you can use with all your sets!

Hero Studio – November Countdown

Hi friends — We’re kicking off the countdown to the October Hero Studio release today and I’m sharing a card using the Clear Stamp & Dies of the Month.

Ok — if you’re a cat lover, this set is definitely for you… and you know those kitties love the Christmas tree around the holidays and they are kinda naughty! I used Hero Arts INTENSI-ified Black Ink to stamp the three cats, the paw print, and the sentiment. I just drew in the lines to create the look of a room right after.

This is one of those cards where the images create the scene and my personal favorite cat is the one clawing down the wall. He adds the dimension to the card and helps create the look of walls on this card.

This was a relatively simple card since it was stamping and then coloring! Hope you liked it!

Head over to the Hero Arts blog for more inspiration using the Hero Studio collection leading up to the release!  And then I’ll be back for the Hero Studio blog hop with a couple more projects to share!

Dusty Fall Palette | Pretty Pink Posh

I love fall — the jewel tones are just cozy and up my alley but I also am digging this dusty fall palette that google inspired me with! I just love how I was able to incorporate it with the stencil and then the die cut word.

Holiday Rainbow | Pretty Pink Posh

There are so sets where I have to think about it a bit to create a card with, even if it’s really cute! Pretty Pink Posh has a line of these circular images, which honestly are perfect for holiday tags — super fun and perfectly shaped. As a cardmaker who tends to lean towards scene cards, it’s harder for me to use them on my cards but I actually have a few ideas for this set and it’s super cute!

Reminder! This is a stamp set that is part of Stamptember — once it’s gone it’s gone.

Stencils with Dies | Honey Bee Stamps

Stamps always come with coordinating dies — but have you seen stencils with coordinating dies? I’m pretty sure they aren’t new to the market but I haven’t used them. I inked the entire 6×6 stencil and then strategically picked which portion to trim off so I could use the dies to get images. It’s pretty cool! I didn’t need to ink this up twice.

Coloring over Ink Blending | Honey Bee Stamps

Masking isn’t always needed — here, I just ink blended on top on the side of my card panel and because of the colors I used, I kept it light so I could easily cover over it with copic markers. Ugh — I just love fall cards so much!
