Freebies! – Ephemera Love Card

Happy Friday-eve! Hi crafty friends! Today, I’m sharing a card featuring a freebie that you can get today, Doodlebug’s Love Notes Ephemera, over at Scrapbook.com (there’s actually two!). I used it to create a cute lovey-dovey card.

I choose a few of the ephemera to put together three scenes within a polaroid picture. It was so perfect, I just glued them on some scrap white cardstock to hold it all together. Using a piece of kraft cardstock, I inked up the edges using Walnut Stain Distress ink. For a subtle background, I stamped Trinity Stamps Encouragement Text background stamp using the same Walnut Stain Distress Ink.

For the sentiment, I die cut the letters to spell love out of the Mixed Metals Paper Pack for some extra glitter. To finish off the card, I used some of the heart ephermera pieces to fill up the empty spaces. It’s such a cute card, and so easy to put together!

Remember to if you’re shopping over at Scrapbook.com, to add these two freebies to your cart.

Freebies! – Stickers on Cards

Hi crafty friends! Today, I’m sharing a card featuring a freebie that you can get today, Pink Fresh Studio’s Puffy Alphas, over at Scrapbook.com (there’s actually two!). I used it to create a custom sentiment as a focal point for this card.

I stamped the main lines from the Recipe Card Maker stamp set diagonally on my black cardstock with Versamark ink, covered it with Hero Arts Satin Pearl embossing powder, and heat set it for a subttle pattern in the background. I then placed all letters to create the “Love You” sentiment in the middle of that pattern.

I used distress oxides inks to ink up the edges but you can’t really distinguish the colors so any would be fine. I then covered up the stickers using the mint tape from Scrapbook.com so I could splatter Perfect Pearl mixed with water onto the top and bottom portion of the card. To finish off the card, I trimmed the card panel down to 4.25 x 5.25. I inked up a piece of white cardstock on the top and bottom using Mowed Lawn, Wilted Violet, Spice Marmalade, and Squeezed Lemonade to match the colors of each of the letters. I mounted my main card panel on top allowing those colors the show through.

I thought that was a pretty fun card I ended up with! Remember to if you’re shopping over at Scrapbook.com, to add these two freebies to your cart.
