Kinda Cute Alien Birthday

Hey there! I’m so glad you stopped by my blog today! Today, I am sharing a birthday card using Kinda Cute by Patricia’s Alien Digital Stamp Set.

To make this card, I am starting with the galaxy background. I used Heffy Doodle’s Stargazer Backdrop on a piece of white cardstock. Then, I created the galaxy effect by blending Dusty Concord, Faded Jeans, Blueprint Sketch, Twisted Citron, and Black Soot Distress Oxide Inks.

Next, I colored my images using Copic markers and then cut them out using scissors.

For my sentiment, I used the MFT Space Explorer stamp set. I also grabbed a few stars from this stamp set and used 3D foam squares to adhere them to my card front.

Here’s a few closeups of the finished card!

Athena Reading

Hello friends! Welcome back to my blog! Today, I’m sharing a card that I made using the Kinda Cute by Patricia Athena Girl Reading digital stamp and the Window and Curtains Room Background digital stamp.

First, I set up my images in Adobe Illustrator. Then, I printed them on 80 lb. Neenah Solar White cardstock. Then, I colored the images using Copic markers.

After I had it all colored, I used a stitched rectangle die and a trimmer to create my layers. I stamped my sentiment underneath the image and assembled the card!

Flamingo Couple

Hello all you fellow crafters! I hope your week was amazing! I’m so glad it’s finally Friday! We even had a snow day this week, but it still felt like a long week! 🙂

Today, I’m sharing a card I made using Kinda Cute by Patricia’s Flamingo Couple digital stamp.

To make this card, I started by printing the Flamingo Couple on 80 lb. Neenah Solar White cardstock. This cardstock is perfect for coloring with Copic markers.

Once I finished coloring my images in, I cut them out with Cutter Bee Scissors. I always use these scissors for fussy cutting.

I created a white frame using Lawn Fawn’s Four Square Backdrop Landscape Die.

For my background, I blended Dusty Concord, Worn Lipstick and Mustard Seed Distress Oxides. I spritzed the cardstock with my Nuvo Mist Spray Bottle and then patted it dry with a paper towel.

For my grass, I used Heffy Doodle’s Grassy Lass dies and Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide.

I added some Amazonian Leaves and some Heart Drops to finish the card off!

Such a sweet Valentine’s card for a friend or an associate!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog!

Birds of a Feather

Hello there, crafty peeps! I hope you’re all fully recovered from the holidays! I feel like I’m finally getting back into the hang of things and finally getting back into the craftroom after all the madness!

Today, I’m on the blog to show you this bright and cheery little card I made using the Kinda Cute “Cute Shaped Animals” digital stamp to create this card!

I printed the images on 80# Neenah Solar White Cardstock and then colored the little cuties in with Copic markers.

Then, I created a gorgeous and bright background using Squeezed Lemonade and Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxides.

To create some fun (albeit not true to life) clouds, I used the “Angel Eyes”Wow! Embossing Powder with Heffy Doodle’s “Head in the Clouds” stencil.

I created a white frame border using Stitched Rectangle Dies. I also cut some Lawn Fawn Bunting Borders for my birds to sit on.

I grabbed some sentiments from the Heffy Doodle “Wingman” stamp set and used white embossing powder on black cardstock. I adhered everything to my card using 3D foam strips and squares!

Here are a few close-up photos of the finished card!

I’m ready to color my images now! For the lemonade, I’m using Y00, Y04, and Y08. For the lemonade stand, I’m using E30, E31, E33, E35, and E37.

Papa Bear – Best Dad Ever!

Hey there! I’m so happy you’ve come to my blog to see this adorable card I made using Kinda Cute’s Papa Bear and Baby digital stamp! I think Father’s Day cards can be one of the hardest cards to make. Well, really, any masculine card is difficult in my opinion! But when I saw this digital stamp, I thought it was PERFECT for a dad! I hope you like it!

To make this card, I pulled the digital stamps into Adobe Illustrator and put the trees from the Tree Filler set behind the Bears. I printed them out on 80lb. Neenah Solar White cardstock.

Now, I’m ready to color them! I’m using my Copic markers to color in the trees. For the trunks, I’m using E23, E25, and E29. For the trees, I’m using G07, G05, G28, and G29.

For the bears, I’m using E44 (Papa only), E43, E42, E41, R20 (baby only), E50, E51, and E53. I also am using my white Gelly Roll pen for the baby’s cheeks.

I’m taking a textured towel and soaking a corner of it with Alcohol Blending Solution. Then, I’m carefully dabbing the Papa’s body with it, avoiding his face, the baby, and the trees.

Finally, I’m ready to assemble my card using double sided tape!


Such a simple and fun card to make for Dad! Thanks again for stopping by my blog! I hope you enjoy the rest of your week!

Xoxo, Amanda
