Geometric Keychain, Earrings, and Cards

Hi friends! I’m back again with some more projects with the Hedgehog Hollow June 2020 subscription box! I had so much fun guest designing for them!

My first project is these adorable earrings I made using Shrink Prink (by Dress My Craft). I stamped the images using Staz-On ink so it would dry quickly and not smear.

I colored the images with colored pencils on the matte (opposite) side.

I cut the images out with precision scissors and then used a 1/8″ hole punch on both leaves to create a whole for my earring wires.

I used my heat tool to shrink them down and then added the earring wires.

The 2nd project I created was an elephant keychain. I used the same steps as the earrings, but used a 1/4″ hole punch instead.

The next project I created was this beautiful watercolor elephant card.

I stamped the image with Catherine Pooler Midnight Black ink. This ink pad is waterproof so I don’t have to worry about the watercolor smearing the ink.

I used Altenew watercolor markers and a water brush to color the image. I then splattered the watercolor all over the card front.

The last project I did was a fun light-up card using Pear Blossom Press’s EZ Lights.

I used some dies to create a “window” for my card front. I cut down a piece of vellum and folded it in half to make it thicker.

I stamped my image with Staz-On ink so that it would dry quickly and not smear.

I colored the backside of the image with Copic markers.

I taped my vellum to the backside of the window with tape. I also stamped my sentiments on black cardstock with VersaMark Watermark ink. I used white embossing powder and heat embossed the sentiment with my heat gun. I used scissors to cut the sentiments down.

I added 3D foam strips to the back of my card and taped my EZ Lights onto my card. I used double sided tape and 3D foam strips to assemble the card so that when you press the sentiment “kind”, the card lights up!
