Alex Syberia Designs October Release Blog Hop & Giveaway

Hey guys! Welcome to this super sweet Blog Hop celebrating Alex Syberia Designs’ “Grateful for You” October Release!

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!

You can also start at the Alex Syberia Designs Release Blog Hop Post.

Alex Syberia Designs is giving away a $50 gift certificate to 1 winner and a $15 gift card to 3 lucky winners.

Open internationally. All 4 winners will be drawn from the entrants that have played along with this Blog hop by midnight BST October 31st, 2024. Winners will be announced on the Alex Syberia Designs blog ‘Giveaway Winners’ page on November 1st, 2024.

Making an Autumn Stamp Work for Christmas

Hey guys! I hope your week is off to a great start! Today, I’m sharing a card I made as a Guest Designer for Sunny Studio Stamps.

This stamp is actually from the Autumn Garland Stamps, but I wanted to show you how it could also be used for a Winter card!!  

Do you ever have those days where you don’t really feel like crafting, but you want to do something in your craftroom?  That’s what happened to me!  I just decided to stamp out this beautiful garland, put on a show, and use my Copics to color it in!  I added some highlights and dots with a white Gelly Roll pen.

I die cut the image out using the Autumn Garland Dies.  Then, I trimmed a piece of white cardstock to 3.5”x4.75”.  I added a sentiment from the Inside Greetings Seasons Stamps directly onto my white cardstock.   The background paper is from the Joyful Holiday Paper.  I trimmed this paper down to 4”x5.25” and glued it directly to my card base.  I used 3D foam tape to adhere my white cardstock to my patterned paper.  Then, I used 3D foam squares to adhere my garland to the white cardstock.  


I added a few sequins on the left to help balance out the entire card.  Here’s another photo of the finished card!

How to Make a Holiday Light-Up Card

Hello friends!! Today, I am sharing a Light-up card I made using a Pear Blossom Press One Light and some Catherine Pooler products!

To make this card, I first chose my ink color combo. If you need help picking the perfect color combo, you can download a FREE Catherine Pooler Color Wheel!
For my combo, I’m using Whipped Honey, In the Park, Aquatini, It’s a Girl, Polished, Cotton Candy, and Minted.\

I used the Dots & Scallops Dies to create my layers. Then, I used the Mason Jar Snow Globe Stamp Set to create my jar. The lantern and sentiment comes from the Warm and Bright Stamp Set . I stamped my sentiment with the new gorgeous Champagne Metallic Ink!

Once I got all of that stamped, die cut, and assembled, I created a flame for my candle using the PB Press Stamp and Die Combo.

Next, I popped a One Light out of the Halo Light Combo. I inserted a battery (that comes with the combo!) and tested my light to ensure my battery was placed properly.
Then, on my A2 card base, I placed my assembled front panel on top and made a pencil mark inside the flame so I know where my light needs to be.

I placed my One Light where I wanted it to be and secured it using double sided tape. Next, I placed some World’s Best Foam Tape around the entire card base (leaving a border). Then, I attached my front panel to the card!

Here’s a photo of the card with the light off.

And, with a simple push of a button… Voila! Light!

This is definitely a super special card for someone to receive this Christmas!

Thank you SOOO much for stopping by my blog today!! I hope you enjoyed this post and will subscribe below to see more posts from me! Xx, Amanda

All of my stamped images are from the new Warm & Bright Stamp Set. I used the following colors: Sand Castle, Apricot, Green Tea, Eucalyptus, and Clay Mask.

Alex Syberia Designs and Lindy’s Gang Collaboration Bookmarks

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!!

To create my bookmarks, I trimmed down some cardstock to 2″ by 5.5″. I used the We R Makers Crop-A-Dile Multi Punch to punch my hole for my twine. I rounded the edges using the Crop-A-Dile Corner Punch.

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 Mat and 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 of Grab 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!

Don’t forget to join the Hop on Instagram!

Are you wondering where I got that amazing White Glass Magnetic Craft Mat? You can get one for 20% off if you use my code AMANDA20! They are SO amazing and come in all different backgrounds! To see all my favorite things, click here!

Alex Syberia Designs – Panda Party!

Hello friends!  It’s Amanda Fitterer and today’s card that I’m sharing features the new Cheerful Panda Moments stamp set!   These pandas require minimal coloring, which makes it much easier to create this panda party!  

To create this card, I started by stamping my sentiment and then ink blending Catherine Pooler’s Cotton Candy, It’s a Girl, and Party Dress inks.  I gave it a little spritz of water and set aside to let it dry.

Next, I stamped all my pandas from the Cheerful Panda Moments stamp set and added some pink cheeks with Copic markers.  I also added Gelly Roll Pen highlights on each panda.  

Once I got them placed and adhered with 3D foam squares, I used my favorite Cutterbee scissors to trim off the overhanging panda parts.

Such an easy but adorable card!  Who wouldn’t want to join this Panda Party!?

I  hope you enjoyed this sweet little card!  Thanks for coming by my blog today!

Step 2: Cut the large bubble from the new Look Who’s Talking Die Set.

Step 9: Stamp your sentiment from the Happy Holidays Sentiments Stamps on the word bubble.

Step 10: Assemble the card! Glue your background panel directly onto an A2 card base. Use 3D foam tape to add dimension to your word bubble, tree, and pup. Use liquid glue to adhere the rest of the stamped images. Finally, add a few sequins from the new Strawberry Milk Sparkle Mix.

Alex Syberia Designs One-Year Anniversary Release Blog Hop | Giveaway | Over £800 ($1000) in prizes

Welcome to the Alex Syberia Designs September Anniversary Release Blog Hop! To celebrate their birthday, Alex Syberia Designs has collaborated with a ton of wonderful sponsors to give away a grand total of £800 ($1000) in prizes! See ALL THE PRIZES down below! 👇👇

My cards feature a lot of the new products! Shop all the NEW PRODUCTS HERE.

Alex Syberia Designs Products in my card:
* Cheerful Panda Moments Stamps & Dies
* Flickering Candlelight Stencil
* Illuminated Night Sky Hot Foil Plate and Die Set
* Birthday and Wish Hot Foil Plate Set
* Birthday and Wish Die Set
* Shiny Diamonds Stencil

To create this first card, I’m going to start by blending my background. My absolute newest favorite craftroom addition is my Glassboard Studio Magnetic Craft Glass Mat! (Use code AMANDA20 to receive 20% off your own mat!!) I have ink blended Catherine Pooler’s Something Borrowed Ink on my entire panel. Next, I’m holding my panel and stencil in place with the magnets and blending Suede Shoes through the Shiny Diamonds Stencil.

If you ever have an issue getting a really good ink blended background, it’s possible you’re not using the right paper or cardstock. The ink should be smooth and easy to blend. Consider using Catherine Pooler’s Premium White Cardstock. It makes the process so much easier!

Once that’s all set, I’ve flicked some white paint and water onto the entire panel. I’ve also used my Gemini FoilPress Machine and my Gemini Jr. to hot foil the Illuminated Night Sky Hot Foil Plate and Die Set directly onto the panel.

Next up, I’m going to stamp my images from the Cheerful Panda Moments Stamps with Copic marker-friendly Memento Tuxedo Black Ink using my MISTI.

I’ve colored my little guys with Copic markers and die cut them out with the coordinating Dies.

Now I’m going to create my sentiments. I’ve used my Gemini FoilPress Machine and my Gemini Jr. to hot foil and die cut my Birthday and Wish Hot Foil Plate Set and Birthday and Wish Die Set.

To assemble my card, I’m using 3D foam squares, 3D foam tape, and liquid glue. I’ve added some Vellum to help my sentiment stick out even more!

For my 2nd card, I used the Flickering Candlelight Stencil as my background! I used Catherine Pooler’s Something Borrowed, Suede Shoes, Cotton Candy, and Party Dress inks. I used a gold pencil for accents!

Alex Syberia Design – Paradise Birds

Hello friends! Today I’m sharing a soft and pretty “LOVE YOU” card featuring the Paradise Birds Stamp Set.  Let’s make this card together!  Grab your supplies!

This card has a few layers to it!  Starting from the largest to the smallest:
1. A2 Sized Card Base: 4.25″ x 5.5″
2. Vellum: 3.5″ x 4.75″
3. White/Green Panel: 3″ x 4.25″
4. White/Pink Panel: 2.75″ x 4″

For the White/Green Panel, we’re going to blend Catherine Pooler’s Melon Ice just around the edges.  For the White/Pink panel, we’re going to blend (just lightly in the center) Cotton Candy.

Next up, we’re going to stamp our leaves from the Paradise Birds Stamp Set directly onto our card base using Melon Ice ink. To make this process a little quicker, I like to use a combination of my acrylic blocks and my MISTI.  I do this because I want to use the foam from the MISTI to get a better stamped image, but the acrylic blocks make it much faster, as I don’t have to constantly move my stamps around!

We’re ready to stamp our sweet birds now!  After stamping with alcohol marker-friendly Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, I’m coloring my images with Copic markers.  Once finished with that, I’ll die cut them with the coordinating die set.

To assemble my card, I’m using 3D foam squares, 3D foam tape, and liquid glue.

Here are a few close-ups of this sweet card.

Well, friends!  That’s it for me today!!  I hope you have enjoyed this post and find some time to get crafty today!!
