Happy STAMPtember, everyone! Let’s celebrate with some amazing deals! Simon Says Stamp is having a PARTY and I am so excited to be a part of it! I get to share this amazing FREE stencil set promotion with you! How cute is that boho rainbow? You can get it FREE with any purchase!
I also get to share with you some cards I made using the exclusive STAMPtember Pumpkin Blessings stamp set! This stamp set has some really fun sunflower and pumpkin stamps, plus a really cool banner with sentiments to go along with it!
For this first card, I stamped the sentiment first in black ink. Then, I stamped a few of the pumpkin stamps around the sentiment and worked my way out to the edges of the card. I colored them in with Copic markers.
For this card, I stamped the large banner stamp in the center of the card panel. Then, I stamped the pumpkins and sunflowers around it. I colored them in with Copics and then added some black paint splatters around the card.
For this final card, I trimmed a piece of blue cardstock to 4.25″x5.5″, a brown piece of cardstock to 4″x5.25″, and then a white piece to 3.75″ x 5″. I glued each piece together. I stamped the large banner stamp in the center with one of the sentiments. And then, I colored it with Copic markers.
I hope you’re enjoying the STAMPtember party so far! Don’t forget there are LOTS of other Designers’ blogs to visit for more promotions and exclusives! Head to the Simon Says Stamp blog to find a list of blogs to visit!!

To create this beautiful card, I cut all the pieces from the Spring Meadow Dies and Cheerful Meadow Dies. I colored each piece with Copic markers.

Hey crafty friends! Today is a really run kick-off Blog Hop for the Alex Syberia Designs New February Release! I’m so grateful to be a part of it! There are so many cute and fun products!
For the Blog Hop today, I’m sharing this sweet card that could be for any love event – wedding, bridal shower, Valentine’s, anniversary, and more! I have used the new Penguin Love Stamps, theEndless Hearts Dies, and the Love and XOXO Dies.
Using some Heffy Memo Tape, I masked off the bottom of my card and very lightly blended Catherine Pooler Matcha ink. Then, I used the tape to mask off the top of the card and blended Catherine Pooler Polished ink.
I cut the XOXO’s out using the Love and XOXO Dies. I glued them to the bottom of the card, spacing them as evenly as possibly.
Then, I stamped my penguins from the Penguin Love Stamps. I colored them with Copic markers and added some highlights with a white gel pen. I put 3d foam squares behind them and added them to the card.
The little hearts are from the Endless Hearts Dies and I glued those directly to the card panel.

What do you think about these adorable penguins!? They are included in the “Smile More” stamp set! This stamp set also has some super cute fox critters!
I created this card using a masking technique. First, I stamped the end table, slippers, and the standing penguin. Then, I used some Heffy Doodle Memo Tape to mask off those images. To do this, I stamped the images on the Memo Tape and then cut on the lines. I placed the masks on the stamped images and then stamped my couch & penguins image. Then, I removed the masks and was left with this sweet little scene!
I colored the images with Copic markers and then stamped my sentiment underneath!

Hey guys! I wanted to share how I put together this shaker card for the Twiddler’s Nook Spooktacular Instagram Hop! To win, you’ll have to head to the Hop on Instagram, but definitely scroll down to see how to make this card and all the awesome supplies I used!!
Next, I stamped my images from the Let’s Hang Out Stamp Set. I colored them with Copic markers and then cut them out with the coordinating dies.
I used the magnets from my White Glass Magnetic Craft Mat to hold my card base in place while I glued the 3 “scenes” down.
Now, I’m ready to create the shaker portion of the card. I used double sided tape on the back of the frame. Then, I cut down a piece of acetate to fit behind the frame and adhered it.

Winners will be announced on the Pear Blossom Press & Heffy Doodle Blogs on 5.31.24! Scroll down for the Blog Hop Lineup!
On a plain piece of white cardstock, I used some Heffy Memo Tape to mask off the top half of the card. I ink blended Catherine Pooler’s Wintergreen ink. Then, I removed the Heffy Memo Tape and ink blended the bottom half of the card. I stamped my sentiments – one from the Koality Hugs stamp set and one from the PRESS Stamp and Die Bundle.
Next, I stamped all of my images from the Koality Hugs stamp set and colored them with Copic markers. Then, I die cut them out using the coordinating dies.
Now, I can make the card light up! I poked a hole through my koala where I wanted him to light up. Then, I placed him on the card where he’ll chill permanently. I, then, made a mark where the light should go.
Then, I used double sided tape to adhere my Pear Blossom Press One Light where my pencil mark was. Then, I used the World’s Best Foam Tape all over the card base. This tape is the same depth as the EZ-Lights battery component. (This will keep the light from sticking out.)
Then, I assembled the rest of the card using liquid glue and 3D foam squares.

Next, I stamped my images from the Sugar and Calorie Free Stamp Set. I colored them in with Copic markers. I stamped my sentiment onPerfect Sentiment Cardstock – Black with Embossing ink and then sprinkled white embossing powder on it. I melted the powder with my heat tool and then die cut the sentiment out with the coordinating die. I also used the coordinating dies to cut out my cakes. I used the same dies to cut out 2 plain black pieces of cardstock. I glued the cakes and their black counterparts together on a slight angle, to give the effect of a shadow!
On my card base, I made 3 little pencil dots where I wanted the candles’ flames to be. I also made a little pencil dot where I wanted the ON button to be. For this card, I’m using the Pear Blossom Press EZ-Lights. I used double sided tape to adhere my battery and button where I wanted it. Then I used masking tape to hold my wires and lights in place.
Once I had everything in place, I placed Pear Blossom Press’s World’s Best Foam Tape everywhere except over the lights and battery/button case.
On my card front, I poked 3 holes where my lights are. I placed my Pear Blossom Press Yellow Candle Flame Gems over the lights using liquid glue. Then, I placed my Clay Candles under the flames and adhered them with liquid glue.

To create my sentiment, I stamped it on black cardstock using my Wow! Embossing Glue Pad. Then, I applied White Opaque Embossing Powder on it. I melted the powder using my favorite heat gun. I cut it out using the coordinating die!

Hey guys! In case you missed it, Alex Syberia Designs and Lindy’s Gang have a Collaboration Insta-Hop going on right now! There are some prizes to be won! Plus, check out all the amazing inspiration the teams have created! You can join the Hop on Instagram! But first, scroll down to see how I made these amazing bookmarks!!
Next, I stamped my Alex Syberia Designs Watercolor Flowers Stamps (the solid flowers) with my Wow! Embossing Pad. I applied clear embossing powder to it, and then melted the powder with my favorite heat gun. Once that was cooled down, I sprayed water on my Glass Matand then sprinkled on some of Lindy’s Gang’s Pinkie’s Up and Crumpet Crumbs Magical Shakers into the water. Then, I flipped my bookmark upside down into the glittery gorgeousness until all the white was covered!
For my other bookmark, I stamped my Alex Syberia Designs Watercolor Flowers Stamps (the outline flowers) with Catherine Pooler’s Midnight Ink. I like this ink because it makes crisp images and stays wet enough for me to apply my Clear Embossing Powder onto it! After I’ve applied my powder and heated it up with my heat gun, I’m ready for the next step!
For this bookmark, I’m actually going to apply the water and powder directly onto the bookmark. I’ve also added a bit ofGrab a Guy Gold Starburst Spray to it.
Now to add my cute pandas! I’m using the Cheerful Panda Moments Stamps and Dies and just adding a little bit of color with a gold gel pen and R02 Copic.
Here’s some close-ups of these gorgeous bookmarks!

Next, on another piece of white cardstock, I created my dirt path using Copic colors E21, E53, E23, E25, and E27.

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle New Release Inspiration Blog Hop! We are so excited to share amazing cards from our Design Team members using the new release! For today’s special Blog Hop, you can win a £50 voucher to the Heffy Doodle store!
I love seeing how people “sketch out” their ideas for their cards, so I wanted to show you how I do it! This is how I visual the card: I knew I wanted to use the Stitched Birthday Trio Frame so I die cut that out first. Then, I lay out my stamped images and any other dies I want to use. I then take a photo so I can remember how I have things laid out!
Now, I’m going to ink blend my pond and grass and 1 panel cutout. I’m using Catherine Pooler’s Melon Ice and Martini for the grass. I’m also using All That Jazz and Uptown for the Ripple Waves Stencil pond. I LOVE this color combo! I like to do my ink blending before coloring my stamped images so that I can make sure my stamped images coordinate with the ink colors.
So, now I can color my images! I’m using OLO Alcohol Markers to color my images. I add highlights with my ABSOLUTE FAV white Gelly Roll pen.
Let’s cut these little guys out now! Like I mentioned earlier, I use 3″ wide cardstock so that I can run it through my Mini Die Cutting Machine! If you don’t have a mini die cutting machine, you HAVE to get one! They’re also available on Scrapbook.com, if you’re in the US!
Using my frame as a guide (held in place with washi tape), I’m gluing my panels down with Glubert Glue.
For my frame, I’m using Deep Foam Tape because I want it to really have a LOT of dimension!
The last step is to add my images with 3D foam squares! For some of the images, I used 2 foam squares on top of each other to get even more dimension!
Here are some close-up images!
To be entered to win the giveaway, all you need to do is comment at each stop along the Blog Hop before March 14th, 2023 at 11:59 PM EST. The winner will be announced on the Heffy Doodle Blog on March 16th at 10:00 AM EST!

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle New Release Inspiration Blog Hop! We are so excited to share amazing cards from our Design Team members using the new release! For today’s special Blog Hop, you can win a £50 voucher to the Heffy Doodle store!
Get your Sweetie Pie stamp set for FREE with a £30 spend (not inc. shipping). And get the coordinating dies too with a £45+ spend!
To create this trifold card, I started with a sheet of cardstock trimmed to 4.5″ x 11″. I scored at the 3″ mark and the 6″ mark.
For all of my rainbow blending, I’m using Maker Forte’s Color Hive Inks in the colors Flamingo, Yellowstone, and Vegas Strip. This is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE rainbow blend! You can get a huge range of colors from just these 3 colors!
Here’s how I get the best blend: 1. I start with Yellowstone and blend it in the center of my cardstock. 2. Next, I blend Flamingo on the top of my cardstock (reaching all the way to the top). I gently blend the Flamingo into the Yellowstone to create an orange color. 3. I grab my Vegas Strip and repeat the process on the bottom of the cardstock. 4. Now, I take my Vegas Strip and blend a purple at the very tippy top of the cardstock to create a pinky-purple blend. 5. Then, I get my Flamingo again and blend at the very bottom of the cardstock to create a blue-purple blend. 6. If needed, I will take my Yellowstone brush and just lightly blend into the Flamingo and Vegas Strip. 7. I usually also spritz my background with a Mister Perfect Spray Bottle filled with regular water. I will also sometimes flick white watercolor paint using a Watercolor Brush.
If you were wondering what sort of black and white paper I’m using for my striped paper, you’ll be happy to know that I made it myself! I simply used the chisel end of a marker! I wanted them to look hand-drawn, so I just freehanded it! Easy peasy!
For my front panel, I’ve used the Love is Everywhere Stencil. I have also used my new favorite tool (the Cropadile!) to add some eyelets to the front of my card to hold my baker’s twine! I made sure to add my eyelets and twine before gluing down the inside panel!
For my super adorable shaker lollipop, I’ve used the NEW Sweet Tooth Shaker Dies! Omg, are they adorable or what?! You can make all sorts of sweets and shakers! For my stripes, I used my chisel marker again! I mixed and matched Sparkle Mixes to get all the colors of the rainbow in there.
For my adorable candy jar and gumball machine, I’ve used the Gumbelievable Stamp Set again and then added a layer of Glossy Accents over top! I used OLO markers to color all my images.
For my little circles, I used the circle confetti dies that come in the Sweet Tooth Shaker Dies.
I hope you have LOVED seeing how I made this rainbowy fun mini trifold card!
To be entered to win the giveaway, all you need to do is comment at each stop along the Blog Hop before Sept 13, 2022 at 11:59 PM EST. The winner will be announced on the Heffy Doodle Blog on Sept 15th at 10:00 AM EST!

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle New Release Inspiration Blog Hop! We are so excited to share amazing cards from 8 Design Team members using the new release! For today’s special Blog Hop, you can win a £50 voucher to the Heffy Doodle store!
As part of the Blog Hop, I get to share this fun and happy card showcasing some of the brand new products!! Read on to see how I made this card!
To create this card, I am blending a piece of A2 white cardstock with Drive-In, Flirty Fuchsia, Party Dress, and Bellini inks. I am using the brand new Heffy Doodle Stitched Birthday Trio Frame Dies to create a frame for my A2 card.
Next, I’m going to place my stamps where I think I’ll want them to go. This helps me see the finished card without committing to anything just yet!
Once I have my selected stamps from the NEW Safari Animals, Koality Hugs, and Mane Squeezestamp sets, I am coloring them in with Copic markers and then cutting them out with the coordinating die sets.
My final step is to assemble the card and add some accents! I’m using the Heffy Doodle Deep Foam Tape to adhere my trio frame to the ink blended background. I’m using 3D foam squares to attach my stamped images and sentiment. For my sequins, I’m using Glubert glue to hold them down.
Here are some close-ups of the finished card!

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle and Time for Tea Collaboration Blog Hop! Design Team members from both companies are sharing inspiration using products from both companies!
I’m so excited to share this card I made with you! I absolutely adore both of these companies’ products! They work SO WELL together! Can you guess which products are from which company? Read on to see!
To create my super vibrant background, I am blending Sixteen Candles, Pixie Dust and Grape Crush through the Time for Tea Tiled Wall Stencil. Once that’s done, I am going to very gently go over the entire background with a blending brush that has leftover Sixteen Candles ink on it.
To create the forefront of my scene, I am using the leaves from the Heffy Doodle Tree-mendous Peekaboo Tree Die and blending Melon Ice and Lime Rickey onto my cutout. For the dirt hill, I am using the Heffy Doodle Slimline Scenery Dies and blending Sand Castle and Over Coffee ink onto it. I am then splattering some white acrylic paint mixed with water using a small paintbrush. I’ve also used the Silver Linings Border Dies to create some clouds for the top portion of my scene and have left them white.
Now I’m ready to stamp my little cuties! I am grabbing the Heffy Doodle Hello Squeakheart Stamp Set and the Time for Tea Cafe Critters Stamp Set. I’m coloring them with my Copic markers using purples, greens, and yellows.
I’ve cut out the word “ENJOY” using the Heffy Doodle Stitched Alphabetters Dies and used Melon Ice and Lime Rickey to color them. Once I’ve cut my stamped images out using the coordinating dies, I’m ready to start assembling my card! I’m using Heffy Doodle’s Deep Foam Tape and Glubert Glue. I’m also creating one last sentiment by stamping the word “SQUEAKHEART” from the Hello Squeakheart stamp set on black cardstock with Versamark watermark ink. Then, I’m applying white embossing powder to it and cutting the sentiment into a ribbon using my scissors.
And, voila! Don’t those little cuties look so cute?! 🙂
That’s it for me on this Hop! I hope you enjoyed my card and all the love I put into it!

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle and Newton’s Nook Designs Collaboration Blog Hop! Design Team members from both companies are sharing inspiration using products from both companies! I am super excited to share my card with you!
To create this card, I’m starting with the Heffy Doodle Slimline Mini Mails Die and a piece of white cardstock trimmed to slimline size (3.5″x8.5″).
Next, I am stamping my images from the Newton’s Nook All About for Christmas stamp set and the Heffy Doodle Santa’s Village stamp set with the Maker Forte ReMARKable Eclipse Black ink. This is my favorite alcohol-friendly black ink!
Now, onto coloring my adorable images with Copic markers!
To create my hill and slider element, I’m using the Heffy Doodle Slimline Scenery Dies and the Straight Slider Dies. To create a longer slider, I’m die cutting 2 of the sliders right next to each other.
Using Deep Foam tape, I’m propping up my hill to give me room for a button to use as my sliding element. After attaching my trains to the buttons, I can start assembling the rest of the card using 3D foam squares and glue!
Here’s another photo of the finished card and some close-ups!
And that’s it for my card!! I hope you enjoyed my part in the Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle, Maker Forte, and SugarPea Designs Collaboration Blog Hop! Design Team members from all three companies are sharing inspiration using products from all three companies!
Today, I am sharing 2 cards that I made using tons of awesome products from these companies!
For my interactive pull tab and slider card, I’m starting by stamping my images from the Heffy Doodle Otter Side and You Go, Gull stamp sets and the Sugar Pea Designs Captain of My Heart and Waves of Love stamp sets. To ensure I get a really crisp stamped image, I’m using my Smoosher Tool from Maker Forte and my MISTI. I’m coloring my images with Copic markers and then cutting the images out with my Die Cutting Machine.
Now I’m ready to create my waves. I’m using some colored cardstock and the Breaking Waves Dies, plus the Wavy Water Slides to create my coordinating wave slider.
For my front, I created sand using Copic markers. For my waves, I used the Breaking Waves Dies.
For my images, I am using the same sets as my first card. I’ve stamped my images, used Copic markers to color them, and now I’m attaching my little fishies and birds to small strips of acetate.
To make assembling my card easier, I am using my favorite Rainbow Tweezers.
And, that’s it! Both cards completed!

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle and Sunny Studio Stamps Collaboration Blog Hop! Design Team members from both companies are sharing inspiration using products from both companies!
I couldn’t choose just 1 card, so I decided to make 2!
Whenever I’m starting a card, I like to lay my stamps out on my card base to get an idea of what the card will look like. After doing that, I got blended my background using Fossilized Amber, Worn Lipstick, and Dusty Concord Distress Oxides.
I created leaves with the Amazonian Leaves Dies and Lucky Clover Distress Oxide. Finally, I started adhering everything to my card front with glue and 3D foam squares and strips.
